Construction Workers Always At High Risk For Aches, Strains And Sprains

Construction News Image
At the heart of construction lies its people; from the trades people to the site managers all the way to the project leaders.

Whether physically working on site, leaning over plans in an office or serving customers at a supply store for hours at a time. Everyone suffers with muscle, joint and skin issues at some point.

"HEMPE Muscle & Joint Gels are an absolute game changer, as a site manager, the welfare of those working on the build is priority. Over the course of a job I would usually have to plan for 2 or 3 people have to take the odd half day here and there as they are suffering from some kind of back or knee pain and cannot physically work. Using the gels actually saved me (money) as not only did it reduce the absence of key workers allowing me to finish that job earlier but they didn’t lose out financially either…..it’s an absolute win-win!"

Tom Watson, Site Manager.

"I suffer with 'Charcot Foot' which is a nasty condition where the bones of the foot start to disintegrate which as a carpenter puts me in a huge amount of pain as I am standing for a lot of the time. The gels are the best pain relief remedies I've come across and has allowed me to return to work sooner than I would have."

Robin Digby, Carpenter.

"I have wide spread joint and muscle pain and have had an operation to have a stimulator fitted to interfere with my nerves to reduce the pain signals. I’ve had 10 years and 2 operations to sort my pain out….this (the hot gel) has been on for 5 minutes and it feels better than it has done for the last 10 years."

Thomas Lanaghan, Product Specialist.
