Smrekovit 365 spruce cream got rid of my heel spur. In less than ten days, there was definitely an 80 percent improvement. I had such severe pain that at the time I could not even imagine waking up to a day without pain. This cream is a permanent part of the contents of my handbag. I also cured an ear infection. I will be eternally grateful for this cream.

After severe complications and four consecutive abdominal operations within 12 days, I had terrible abdominal pain. Sepsis, E. coli, ESBL. Even in hospital, SMREKOVIT eased my pain, and two years later I still use the cream every evening to relieve the pain caused by adhesions. Thank God for SMREKOVIT and its generous makers!!
on an uknown date · statement no. 377Your cooling spruce balm is the only thing that truly helps me during outbreaks of hives. I am extremely satisfied with your products and hope you will continue your excellent work in the future.
25.2.2020 · statement no. 376Smrekovit ointment is truly excellent and every household should have it. I first used it years ago to treat a boil; after just two applications, the condition was better, and after one week all signs had completely disappeared. I now regularly use the ointment for healing cuts and during colds, and I also take it internally. The product gives one hundred percent results, and I warmly recommend it.
22.7.2019 · statement no. 375I have known spruce resin ointment for several years and use it most often for my four-year-old child. At the first signs of a cold and cough, I start applying Smrekovit 365 cream to his back and chest. The condition improves after just one day and the cold does not develop any further; it also helps excellently with a blocked nose. I use the cream myself for pain in the muscles, back, and neck, often together with a compress. After just two days of use, I feel a big difference and relief from night-time pain. I have tried many expensive ointments, but yours suits me by far the best.
30.8.2019 · statement no. 374I ordered your Smrekovit 365 creams recently, and we are very satisfied with them. I apply the cream to my lower back and around the hip, and the swelling disappears quickly. It also completely eliminated severe pain in the soles of my feet within two days. I lent the cream to my neighbour as well to apply to an injured ankle, and she confirmed that it helps her tremendously.
30.9.2019 · statement no. 373When I have joint pain in my hands in the morning, I apply Smrekovit Klasik or Ekstra ointment to the finger joints and wrists in the evening. By morning, the pain is considerably less or has even disappeared, and mobility is much better. My husband also uses the ointment occasionally, while for regular care and relief of pain in the joints, feet, back, and knees he uses Smrekovit Ekstra. When we have an inflamed and painful throat, we have several times taken a teaspoon of Klasik ointment and let it dissolve in the mouth; after a few repetitions, the condition improved quickly. The product is also very effective for skin care.
3.10.2019 · statement no. 372I apply Smrekovit Klasik ointment whenever I feel a cold coming on. I apply it to my chest, neck, temples, forehead, and the area around my nose, and after just one night’s sleep I already feel much better. I recommended it to relatives as well, and they now use it regularly and are very satisfied. The ointment also helps me greatly with haemorrhoid problems, as the condition improves considerably after a few days of application. I warmly recommend the product to everyone.
21.12.2018 · statement no. 371I have always kept spruce resin ointment in stock for several years now. Because I have year-round allergic rhinitis, I use it to help clear my nose by inhaling it and applying it to my forehead, under my nose, and on my chest. I also use it to ease pain in my knees and other painful areas, so I rarely need to take tablets. Recently, my son had a boil on his arm; overnight and for one day, he kept gauze thickly coated with ointment on the wound, and the next day the boil was completely gone. A medical procedure was therefore not necessary.
on an uknown date · statement no. 370I started using the product because of neck pain and a hernia. With regular application and massage, the condition improved after about one week and soon stabilised. I still use the ointment regularly and intend to continue using it in the future.
12.12.2018 · statement no. 369We have been using your product for a very long time to relieve pain in the hips, back, and arms. With regular application and massage, the condition has improved considerably and it greatly eases my pain. We also use it for herpes, fungal problems, and gum infections, sometimes mixing it with honey. We are very satisfied with the product, and it truly helps.
24.10.2018 · statement no. 368I have been using your ointment for some time to apply to both legs, as I have varicose veins that cause unbearable pain. By applying it twice a day, I greatly relieve the pain. The ointment also helps me a lot with itchy eyes.

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.
