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.
A year ago, a friend gave me Smrekovit Ekstra as a gift, and since then I have been using it regularly for muscle pain in my back and neck, for an ankle injury, and for lower-back pain, and all the pain disappears very quickly. When I have a cold, I apply it to my temples, forehead, chest area, the lymph node area on my neck, and under my nose, which makes breathing much easier and improves how I feel. I am delighted with it.
27.5.2015 · statement no. 389It helps me a lot with my joints and all kinds of pain. Excellent ointment.
1.5.2026 · statement no. 388Spruce resin ointment is great for everything, and I can hardly imagine being without it.
27.5.2015 · statement no. 387I cannot think of anything I DON’T use Smrekovit ointment for! Our family has been using it for about 15 years, and now that I live abroad, of course I always have it with me. I have easily won over a small crowd of friends as well, so we usually buy a shared supply online. We have named the ointment Magic Cream.
27.5.2015 · statement no. 386I use spruce resin ointment to treat fungal problems; swelling, discolouration, and pain from a sprain went away faster with its help. It is my first choice for all skin problems and never lets me down. And once again, for who knows how many times, I will repeat that it successfully reduced the pain from herpes zoster that affected my face and scalp. Thank you.
27.5.2015 · statement no. 385The ointment is fantastic. We use it for everything. For a cold, I apply it to the chest and neck. It helps.
27.5.2015 · statement no. 384for colds, pain... in short, versatile
27.5.2015 · statement no. 383Excellent ointment. Our whole family uses it, especially for muscle pain, colds, and swelling, and I also use it for massage. For me, Smrekovit is indispensable. Thank you.
27.5.2015 · statement no. 382One of the most versatile ointments I know. At home we use it for wounds, sore muscles, and knee pain. In the beauty salon, we use it for foot massage during pedicures, and clients are very satisfied with the feeling of light legs. The horses are extremely satisfied as well, as we use this ointment to keep flies away from sensitive areas. In short, we are all satisfied.
27.5.2015 · statement no. 381A pleasantly scented ointment that helps me remove warts.
28.5.2015 · statement no. 380We have been using your products for many years. The cream helps me tremendously with a skin allergy above the elbows triggered by non-organic produce, dairy products, sugar, or yeast bread. The cream immediately cools and relieves the itching, and after three to four days of application the inflammation and rough skin disappear completely. The product is also excellent for burns; if a thick layer is applied immediately and renewed every half hour, the pain is neutralised and blisters do not appear at all. The skin then returns completely to normal within a few days.

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.
