Written experiences from users

Below are experiences sent to us by users over the years who gave permission for their statements to be published. We do not select these statements according to what users wrote about Smrekovit.

These are personal experiences of individual users. A particular statement does not mean that another user will have the same experience.

Marija Čučun, Notranje Gorice

I had fractures of two pubic bones, an injured rear part of the pelvis, and a cracked hip. By applying the product several times a day, I relieve my problems and notice an improvement in how I feel. I am also happy to recommend the product to others.

Jože, Logatec

My right arm tingles badly, but I do not apply it there. The worst pain is in my lower back, where a lumbar vertebra is badly worn, so I apply it there four times a day. I use Smrekovit ointment several times a day and apply it to the painful area.

Helena, Sv. Jurij

I have been using spruce ointment for more than ten years to help with various aches and pains, as my body is under considerable strain. With regular use, I notice an improvement in how I feel and better sleep.

I use spruce ointment to improve circulation after frostbite of my toes, for vascular problems, and for pain in my spine and similar problems. Sometimes I notice improvement more quickly and sometimes more slowly, depending on the problem. My colleagues also have a similarly positive opinion of the product.

I use Smrekovit Klasik for rheumatoid arthritis, Raynaud’s syndrome, and a fungal infection of a fingernail. I apply it in the evening and cover the finger. I have been using the ointment for a month and a half; I feel less pain in my joints, and the condition of the fungal nail is gradually improving.

Julij, Tolmin

For problems with gout, I apply it twice a day to the big toe on my left foot and the index finger on my right hand.

Tončka, Artiče

I use your product for colds and to relieve pain, so that I can at least ease my problems a little, as I am already getting older. That is simply how it is.

I used your Smrekovit 365 product for the first time to relieve pain in my spine and the muscles in my legs. In 1984, I had surgery for a herniated disc, and since then the pain has occasionally returned. Massage usually helps me the most. At the moment, using the product has eased the pain, and I will continue applying it.

I have severe pain in my shoulders and spine, as well as arthritis in the joints of my hands, which is very painful. I am happy to say that the condition in my shoulders is improving. I have already been waiting six months for acupuncture (for the second time), so I know that recovery will still take time. I believe in the benefits of resin, as my late grandfather also used it for shoulder pain and bruises, back then in its pure form because other preparations were not available in the 1960s. I also use the ointment for all the problems mentioned above. I occasionally have burning feet, especially in the evening.

Klara, Škofja Loka

I have been using Smrekovit ointment for about 25 years for cuts, abrasions, coughs, insect bites, and ear pain. We also use it for our pets (cat, rabbit). At the beginning of the year, I developed sciatica, with pain in my lower back and knee. The pain in my knee was sometimes so severe that I could hardly put any weight on the leg. I applied spruce ointment to my lower back and knee twice a day, and after two weeks I was already able to put weight on the leg fairly normally. After six weeks of use, I no longer feel pain in my lower back or knee. Even so, I still apply the ointment to my lower back and knee twice a day.

I use spruce ointment for teat injuries in dairy cows. Healing is faster and more effective.

Olga, Ig

I have been using your product for almost 30 years. When my son was eight months old and became seriously ill, we used compresses according to the instructions at the time (10 days of use, 10 days off), and his condition gradually improved. Once, when he had an ear infection, we rushed to the emergency department; before leaving, I applied a little ointment in and around his ear. By the time he was examined, the pain had subsided. I still use the ointment today, and my late mother used it as well. For me, this ointment is a real help with many problems. Thank you.

Mazilo uporabljam vsak dan 2× za stopalo, ker imam zelo boleč trn v peti upam, da mi bo pomagalo.

Izjemni izdelki. Vesela sem priložnosti, da preizkusim vaše kreme. Predstavljajo eno boljših in predvsem izjemno učinkovitih rešitev, s katerimi sem se doslej srečala na področju naravne podpore kože. Hitri pozitivni učinki – pri celjenju ran, lajšanju bolečin, odpravljanju kožnih nepravilnosti ter splošnem občutku regeneracije in udobja. Prepričana sem, da njihova moč sega še dlje, zato se veselim nadaljnjega preizkušanja in verjamem, da bom lahko v prihodnje delila še več osebno potrjenih vtisov. S spoštovanjem, Tjaša

Documented cases from practice

Some experiences are documented in greater detail. In addition to the user's account, we collect available information about the course of the case, supporting documentation and the circumstances of use, while also clearly stating the limitations of the case.

A documented case contains more verifiable information than a regular user review, but an individual case does not by itself prove that Smrekovit caused the reported outcome.

How our archive of experiences is created

Experiences come from users

Most statements were submitted in writing, by email or through a feedback form. Google reviews are displayed separately, directly from their public source.

We publish them with permission

Our public archive contains statements from users who permitted their publication. We do not select them according to how positively the user described their experience.

Originals are kept in our archive

Written statements are stored together with their date and archive reference number. Translations preserve the meaning of the original statement, while personal information not intended for publication is not displayed.

A personal user experience is not the same as a documented case, and a documented case is not, by itself, clinical evidence.

Share your experience with us

If you have used Smrekovit, you are welcome to send us your experience. It can be a short impression or a more detailed description of how you used it.

A submitted statement is not published automatically. We include it in the public archive only with your permission.

Frequently asked questions about user experiences

Are the published reviews genuine?

Yes. These are statements that we actually received from users. Written experiences are kept together with an archive reference number and, where known, the date they were received. Google reviews are displayed separately from their public source.

Why are some reviews not signed with a full name?

The amount of personal information displayed depends on the user's permission. Some statements therefore include a full name, while others show only a first name, location or another limited form of identification.

Do you publish every review you receive?

Not automatically. The public archive contains statements from users who have permitted their public publication. We do not select statements according to whether the user describes Smrekovit positively or negatively.

Do you alter the wording of user statements?

We do not alter the substantive meaning of a statement. In older statements, we also preserve the terminology and product names used by the user at the time. Translations preserve the meaning of the original statement.

Why do you also show older reviews?

Because this page also serves as an archive of experiences collected over the years. Where known, the date is shown with the statement so that older experiences can be understood in their historical context.

What is the difference between a review and a documented case?

A review is a user's personal statement. A documented case includes additional information about the course of the case, available documentation, circumstances of use and the limitations of the case. Neither an individual review nor a documented case proves causation by itself.
