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.

Olga, Ig

I’ve been using the classic spruce ointment Smrekovit Klasik for over 30 years. I first used it for my son until he was three because of asthma, and later for myself as well. It’s very useful and, as I like to say, “an ointment that really helps.” Thank you.

I use Smrekovit for faster healing of scrapes, burns, and wounds. When I have a cold or a sore throat, it helps me clear mucus faster and more effectively. I carry Smrekovit Klasik with me everywhere (in the mountains, at the sea, at work, at home—basically everywhere). It always comes in handy—if not for me, then for someone else. Everyone I recommend it to praises it.

I’m happy that I discovered your Smrekovit cream. I have always used spruce-resin ointment, because as a child I used to collect resin with my father, melt and soften it, and use it for all the injuries and issues that children often get during farm work. For a compress, we used plantain leaves: we spread resin on them and wrapped wounds with them. Your ointment is much better than the ones I have bought so far. I use it for everything—I’d even spread it on bread if you didn’t also have capsules.

We have been using Smrekovit Klasik since around 1995. My late partner went several times to your father for lower-back massage, and in our extended family and among friends, the use of your ointment has spread for various issues that come up. During the COVID period, I personally came to your home to get the ointment. For the past three years, I have been going for a spine massage every month, where I also buy your ointment because it is the most convenient for me. The last ointment was bought for me by my nephew at the Smrekomat in Sostro.
Recently, I fell on paving stones and caught myself on my knees and arm (later I needed stitches), and I scraped my cheek on the right side of my face. Before going to the emergency room, I applied Smrekovit Klasik to my cheek. After about two hours, when it was my turn, the doctor said there was no visible mark on my cheek.

Marija, Ljubljana

I had toenail fungus on my big toe in an early stage—about 2 mm in one corner of the nail. I applied Smrekovit Klasik to the affected nail morning and evening, and as a precaution I also applied it to the other nails and the soles of both feet. After two months, the nail had grown out and a healthy nail remained. In addition, as a result of using Smrekovit Klasik, the hard skin around the edge of my heel also improved—something I hadn’t managed to resolve before despite weekly soaking, removal, and regular care with creams.

Mia, Ljubljana

First of all, thank you for such an effective product. I train climbing, and lately I started noticing that I couldn’t move my knee properly. Even when walking downhill, my knee hurt. Then I found out there is a Smrekomat nearby. I bought Smrekovit Klasik ointment and applied it to my knee twice a day. The situation started improving literally by the second day. It felt much easier, and then it gradually kept improving. Climbing became easier and easier until the issue fully settled. Smrekovit Klasik is always in my backpack and is part of my essential gear.

Smrekovit 365 spruce cream relieves my spine pain. Smrekovit capsules are very effective for my digestion.

Terezija Cuderman, Kranj

I developed a rash on both legs, from the knees down to the ankles. For three weeks I used an over-the-counter antifungal ointment, then a prescription combination anti-inflammatory ointment, but the condition did not improve. Then I started applying Smrekovit 365, and after nine days the rash was gone. Mr. Konc, thank you for such an effective ointment.

I use Smrekovit 365 several times a day together with a Smrekovit compress. Before, I couldn’t turn over in bed, but now it’s already much better and it helps me a lot.

For stomach problems (chronic gastritis), I started taking Smrekovit capsules. In the first week, I took 2 capsules in the morning and 2 in the evening. My condition improved very quickly. Gradually, I reduced the number of capsules and now I take them only as needed. The gastritis hasn’t disappeared, but it has improved considerably and prescription tablets are no longer needed—of course, I still have to stick to a diet. Thank you, Smrekovit!

Metka Novak, Šenčur

I have known and used your products for almost two years. I have digestive issues, so I’ve taken quite a lot of Smrekovit capsules. Now I’ve worked out an even better combination: in the evening, when I go to bed, I take a pea-sized amount of Smrekovit Klasik on a spoon. I let it melt slowly in my mouth, and in this way I “disinfect” and “treat” not only my stomach and intestines but also my mouth and throat.

I use Smrekovit 365 spruce cream. I have wear-and-tear in both knees and problems with my lower back. The cream helps me a lot. The pain is at least 80% less. I’ve been using it for 14 days. I’m very satisfied and I’ve already recommended you to a few people.

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.
