“Worked for me.”

townsend s.
3/12/24

I have been on Heal and Soothe for about 14 yrs. It took some loading to start feeling a difference. My knees haven't hurt in a long time. Had not taken it for a long time and had a few bottles still. My shoulder has been hurting for over a yr now. Got back on H&S yesterday. Loaded up and today my shoulder feels a lot better already. I will probably start reordering soon. I didn't have billing issues and they have reached out over the yrs and sent me extra bottles. I have no complaints.

“Sneaky charging unwilling to discuss”

Nancy V.
10/23/23

I used the product during the free trial and did not find it helped at all. November 1,2022, I cancelled and was assured that my credit card would not be charged any more. Looking through my (almost) yearend credit card statement, I discovered I had been charged ongoing $16.03/month. I called them and they told me that I had omitted specifying that I wanted the 'newsletter' cancelled, not just the supplement. I said that is so sneaky, who would want a newsletter for a product that didn't work for them? It shows right on my online account that I cancelled Nov 2022 and now had now active subscriptions. Why am I being charged? I had been told I would NOT be charged any further. The woman said again I must have misunderstood. I got sucked in big time. I hope no one else does. This was a huge waste of time and money.

This product has not made any difference for the first month talking it. I can't afford to throw my hard earned money away with no results to back up the product. If anything, my appetite increased. Not what I was hoping for. May work for others.

Hello Linda,

There are a few things that you can do to increase Heal-n-Soothe's effectiveness:
1. Try doing the loading dose - 3 capsules 3 times a day with a glass of water at least 30 minutes before or at least an hour after a meal for 2 weeks.
2. Avoid or eliminate inflammatory foods from your diet.
3. Doing some amount of physical exercise to boost blood flow.
4. Make sure that you're taking the Heal-n-Soothe on an empty stomach with a glass of water. If not, it will not work correctly.

If you have any other questions about how to boost Heal-n-Soothe's effectiveness please call customer service at (800)-216-4908.

Thank You,
Steve, Director of Client Services

I ordered a trial bottle, the pills did not make any difference for me (although I appreciate they may work for others). I did not sign up for a prescription and when emailed to ask if I did want to sign up, I did not.
It turns out a subscription was created on my account and 3 monthly charges have been taken, totalling more than £150 which have made my bank account go overdrawn and which I cannot afford. The charges were basing an account I do not use so I did not spot it. How can that be allowed to happen? It is a disgrace and I am now in difficulty with my bank and this has caused me significant stress.

Hi. My name is Kate, Earlier in June I ordered a free sample of your tablets plus clicked to purchase a bottle at $39. To date ( 25th June) I have not been issued an invoice,, nor any information about any purchase. However, on 12th June, $151-59 was taken from my bank account. One of the 19 email adverts that have been sent to me since placing my order stated that the free sample bottle was not available... So Why And For What reason has $151-59 charged and taken from me. I do expect a reply and refund...thankyou

I live in Aussie and had sciatic pain so was ready to try anything. I found their site while looking online for help. I purchased 3 bottles of heal & soothe plus a bottle of the joint food. With the exchange rate plus postage this is a very expensive product. It took nearly 3 weeks to arrive and by that time I was starting to get better anyway. I did feel good while using the pills but won't order more as their billing people make so many mistakes.
I did read all the fine print so as soon as the pills arrived I e mailed and asked for the auto order to stop. 1 month after first order they charge my credit card $39 US again!? That indicated to me that they had charged me for their air head news letter which did not arrive. It is full of trippy hippie feral dreadlocked drum beating rubbish. Not worth anything. I e mailed and complained and hoped to be refunded. Their accounts people did not seem to understand my complaint. No refund. 1 month later I received that air head newsletter but was not charged ( not so far)
The exercises are good and helped my back pain. I think heal & soothe works for me and the joint food was OK. They are just sooo expensive and can't be trusted not to rip you off, which is a shame as I would use their products again if in extreme pain.

Tip for consumers:
Buyer beware of air head staff.

The recommended dosage is 3 capsules up to 3 times per day. That means you could use a whole bottle in 1-2 days! $70 per day?!

The recommended dosage and frequency should be made clear on the web site.

Hello William!

Let me clear up this bit of confusion for you. Each bottle of Heal-n-Soothe comes with 90 capsules. The maintenance dose is 3 capsules once a day 30 minutes before or an hour after a meal. Therefore, one bottle would last one month. We suggest taking up to 3 capsules 3 times per day 30 minutes before or an hour after a meal for the first two weeks or so of taking the Heal-n-Soothe as a loading dose to help boost the relieving effects. This is recommended but not required. Doing so would mean that one bottle would last 10 days. If you have any other questions regarding dosage or how to increase Heal-n-Soothe's effectiveness, please call customer service at (800)-216-4908.

I have been sending messages since Febr. 12 but without any respons. Still, I've received three messages about shipments. I received the stuff' (LIVINGWELL nutraceuticals) on trial and did not register. I returned the February delivery and expected a $ 49.63 refund. On March 10, about $ 49 was again debited and the 'package' was sent back. I will return the new parcel and will ask Mastercard to stop and reclaim the payments immediately. Can anybody in Customer Service please sort out me?

I ordered from lose the back pain 3 times, we live in the U. K. & the shipping was about £16 the first 2 times & was delivered direct to our door. The 3rd time I ordered I called the company and their representative told me if I order in bulk it would work out cheaper. Not so, they sent my shipment to Germany & customs charged me over £200. I have complained to Lose the Back Pain (Heal & Soothe) and tried to get some compensation for giving me the wrong advice and they deny the shipment was sent to Germany even with photographic proof. Customer service are robots they don't care about customers that's for sure. You can buy all the ingredients separate and put together yourself! A lot less expensive. Worse company I have Ever Bought From! No Customer Service, send out robot messages after they get your credit card details, Beware, so sad

Yes, these products helped me, but the problem is that they turn out to be too expensive, in addition to the fact that the shipment takes a little longer than expected. And I can't afford to spend a lot of money all the time, despite the help.

Not only no difference or progress whatsoever; I was charged for additional shipments without authorization. Do not submit banking information. The product and company are a scam. The CSR answered my telephone call with a child screaming in the background? Exceptionally unprofessional; saying it will take up to 12 weeks to refund the unauthorized transaction.

My name is Steve, Director of Client Services, for the Healthy Back Institute (HBI), I have reviewed your account, this is what I found.

Recap:
1. We informed you of the rebill date 7-27-2020, so you knew about it,
2. The call was NOT answered by our agent with screaming child in the background
3. I don't see a request via email to cancel and you did NOT cancel via her MyAccount.
4. I have refunded the charge in question

The order and authorization is all done on this page, please read it again, it is very professional and is simple to understand, you just have to remember that you signed up for it.

Annalyn,
Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. I sincerely apologize for the frustration you experienced. My name is Steve, Director of Client Services, for the Healthy Back Institute (HBI) and I do understand the frustration of online/international E-commerce, specifically having to do with supplements as each country has their own rules about what is allowed.

I have been able to review your order history as well as all of your communications with us so let me share with you my findings…

1. You did email us but you responded to a “No_Reply” email that is not monitored, we do give instructions on the kick back response.

2. I can see that you did chat with us today 2-13-2020 and the agent did let you know the order is in transit.

3. There was an issue with the shipping. It was misrouted HOWEVER that was corrected and forwarded to you.

4. We do believe that you used the shipping ID not your order ID and that is why the tracking shows “order doesn’t exist”

All the issues you noted have simple explanations, we work very hard to keep our systems working smoothly but sometimes things happen, and that does not mean we are a scam but rather human with lots of technology.

Please contact us using the link below and give me the opportunity to assess your account and give you more details about what happened and see about getting you a refund:

I called customer service when I noticed I was being charged for subscription that I had not ordered. I signed up for a trial offer one bottle only. Apparently they continue to send you bottles and will charge you if you don't call to let them know you are not interested in their subscription program. Trial offer is just a catch.
When I called the service representative I spoke with said "it's your lucky day!" claiming she was able to cancel the subscription I never approved of, and stated I wouldn't be charged. A week later I recieved another bottle in the mail. I looked at my bank statement to see if they had charged me. Sure enough they did! I had to call their customer service department, spoke with a woman named Devin. Devin was not very understanding of my concerns on why I am being charged for a product that I did not agree to continue to pay for, and my frustrations of not having this subscription cancelled from the original call to customer service. Instead, this woman hung up on me! Can you believe it?!
I never write reviews but this was incredibly disrespectful of her, and the fact that this company weasels money from potential customers is unacceptable. If this product was everything they claim it is, they wouldn't need to go about their business this way.
After this experience I cannot recommend this company.
Lets see if they actually cancel and refund the charges... To be continued

Yvonne,

We are sorry to hear about your experience. We see that on October 14,2022, you took advantage of our free trial offer. To do this, you must agree to the terms and conditions explaining that the free trial will auto-enroll you in our smart ship subscription program. The terms state, if you like the product, do nothing, and we will automatically ship you a bottle every 30 days for a discounted price. You are not obligated and may cancel anytime by contacting us or logging in to your account on our website.

We have reviewed the logs to better understand what happened with the cancelation. When you contacted us on 2/12/2023 to cancel, the most recent shipment did not show it had shipped, so the first agent believed canceling would avoid further shipments or charges.

However, it was already processed in our subscription system and the transaction was still pending so this is simply an error of timing. The first rep did not intend to mislead you by saying the sub was canceled and no further orders would have shipped.

The second rep you spoke to on 2/21/2023 processed the refund for the last order, and your credit card bank should have those funds returned within 7 to 10 business days.

Thank You,
Steve, Director of Client Services
The Healthy Back Institute

Every body is different... something that my friend loves and works for her may not do anything for me. So please keep this in mind. I ordered the Heal n soothe for achy joints in my hands. I also received the book and other info which I shared with someone who has RA. She found the book helpful. The heal n soothe capsules did nothing for me. I took them as advised for a full bottle with no difference whatsoever and even started a 2nd bottle. I asked for a refund and it was given without too much trouble. Please note that you have to pay return shipping which can be pricey and make a return not worth it. In this case, they let me keep the second bottle and issued a full refund.

Tip for consumers:
These products are not cheap and yet they show very little efficacy despite the great hype and info on the site.

Ordered product 3 weeks ago. The charge immediately hit my credit card. However, they still haven't even shipped the product. I've talked to 3 different customer service agents and none of them have been able to determine why the product hasn't shipped. They have it available but can't seem to get it done. Terrible company. After dealing with them, you will need a supplement of common sense and sanity to offset the pain of their company. I want my money back. Stay away.

I wasn't overwhelmed with heal and soothe, however I have had great success with rub on relief. I previously used 10 % ibuprofen gel following multiple knee surgery. Rub on relief is possible better. You do need to apply a generous enough amount. I recently grabbed a once in a lifetime deal just to find the customs bill directed my way. This made the deal not so good and in fact more run of the mill.

The "money back guarantee" is a hook and not true. The pills are quite expensive, even with their discounts. You have to take many pills a day, increasing from two twice a day to 12 twice a day in the "loading" period. The introductory bottles, therefore, disappear quickly. You have to order a new bottle to keep up the regimen but as I finally decided it wasn't working as I wanted and was just too expensive to continue, I called to cancel my subscription. Of course, only the introductory bottles were returnable, not the additional one I had to order to continue the regimen. And you have to return the original bottles and any new orders must be unopened! How do you find out if it works if you run out of pills before you finish the "loading" period? So! It's expensive, results for pain relief were moderate, and their guarantee is empty. Why would I pay so much for pills when I can get the same relief from prescription medicine through my insurance for almost nothing? Save yourself the time, effort, and money.

I ordered the heel and smooth and got the pain and joint pills also. I read the pamphlet from front to back and realized as I'm taking these that I'm swelling up well In very very tiny letters it says it contains shellfish ( but doesn't exactly tell you which shellfish) I contacted my doctor and was given an antidote. I've found out you have to keep multiplying the dosage per day until you're taking about 20 pills in the morning 20 at night.
What's the kind of intake?, it forces you to order more product in order to keep up the "required" regimen. It DOESNT tell you that whatsoever in their advertisement or online commercials!
No thanks! I'll have a lot more common sense about something like this from now on!

The Super Joint Support label clearly states it contains Shellfish, it's even bolded, and we do tell you Crab and/or Shrimp shell.

As for the Heal n Soothe, and the serving, since the enzymes do not have an RDA, we do offer options or suggestions to increase the serving size as the enzymes are measured in the amount of fibrin or scar tissue they can break down over time so the more enzymes you take the faster you can breakdown and eliminate this excess fibrin or scar tissue from your body. To be clear we never tell people to take 40 capsules a day, that is outrageous. Most customer take between 3 and 12 a day total, some take more but that is rare, and on top of that we only suggest the activation serving for a few days to a few weeks at most.

Worst of the worst products on the internet today. BEWARE of trial offers that have you unwittingly subscribing to a completely worthless product. Even after reporting this scam to American Express, the result was that the charges still stood even though a bottle of tablets posted in the US on April 13 are still in transit to Australia on July 26th. Makes the 90 day money back warranty a load of rubbish. Don't take up any offers from this fraudulent company. I have proof in the form of a DHL tracking notice that shows the product has not yet been received despite a 3 month transit from the US.

I was in a panic looking for something that would help relieve the pain my wife was experiencing, and that was not a prescription drug. I then had my wife start using the Heal-n-Soothe and after receiving the order, and then reading the information that came with the order that it would take some time for it start working.
My wife had then ordered some Hemp Oil because she was not getting any relief form the Heal-n-Soothe yet, the Hemp Oil seem to work very fast and was satisfied using the hemp, so I then contacted The Healthy Back Institute by e-mail to return the unused portion for refund and cancel any future subscription orders on 05/27/20. I noticed that there was product return information on the back of the invoice, and then had shipped the unused bottles back to the listed Illinois address.

I had received a subscription cancellation confirmation e-mail on 06/11/20 and also my refund confirmation on the same day.

Well, wouldn't you know that it happened to be the the same day of the month which I had placed my original order(05/11/20). They had sent out another bottle in the mail a day or so after.

So here is where the communication break down started:

I had contacted them 3 times by e-mail, 2 times at thier customer service on thier web site, 2 times on the so called live chat, called thier phone number 4 times and those calls would not go through!
I just wanted to return this bottle of Heal-n-Soothe that they should have not mailed me in first place!

This company will not return any communication's once you cancel your subscription order's with them!
There is no excuse for this kind of business practice!
