Product Description

Insects sting human skin for the most diverse reasons. Mostly, they want to suck blood and thereby also convey toxins. Painful and swollen puncture marks are the result in the case of very many insect bites. Often, these insect bites cause severe itching. The inflammation is often made worse by scratching. Relief has been possible until now by cooling or by using special ointments. The insect bite healer provides entirely new and highly effective relief in the case of insect bites. The toxins which can cause itching, swelling and inflammation generally consist of protein molecules. When a specific temperature limit is exceeded, proteins alter their molecule structure and thus often lose their effect. The healing process is often experienced as more pleasant. The pain receptors (nociceptors) at the point of treatment respond to the effect of the heat. The itching subsides, symptoms improve and the healing process is often experienced as more pleasant. The insect bite healer uses this effect and warms the skin with the insect bite up to a specific heat limit. The effectiveness of the insect bite healer has been clinically proven (Source: Dr. med. M. Sorf, Hospital and Policlinic, Nové Mesto n/V (SK) - 2006): NOT suitable for diabetics/persons insensitive to pain; should not be used by patients taking pain-relieving medication or in areas where the skin is especially sensitive.
