Amazing Pain-Less has a pleasant natural lemon aroma. It is made from natural ingredients. It is a very smooth and non-greasy cream which is rapidly absorbed into your skin.

In 1957 Dr. John Fletcher Prudden, a New York surgeon, came across critical new medical research undertaken by several of his colleagues at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital . They were studying the effectiveness of Bovine Tracheal Cartilage in healing massive surgical wounds, and they found that this material speeds healing by 55 percent. Despite the amazing results, they were about to abandon their research because the federal funding expired. Thus they offered the drug/material to John Prudden, and he accepted.

After changing the name of the Bovine Cartilage material to "Catrix," Dr. Prudden spent the next forty years (1958-1998) conducting FDA-approved research on the healing properties of Catrix, which had the unique combined abilities to simultaneously act as a very effective anti-inflammatory and immunological stimulant. This was something which no previous medication had ever achieved. Furthermore there were virtually no side effects.

In 1976 an old family friend, Whitney Ulrich, introduced John to my father Jerome Rosow and me in the hope that we might help him better market Catrix. Whitney had experienced amazing results using Catrix to treat her previously agonizing osteoarthritis. After several months of treatment, her symptoms disappeared.

At that time John was testing Catrix in various forms, including capsules, cream, suppositories, and injectable for a wide variety of medical conditions which included Cancer, Osteoarthritis, Scleroderma, Shingles, and others with great success. He also briefly tested Shark Cartilage and found similar results. Sadly, John Prudden passed away in 1998.

I personally began taking Catrix capsules and applying cream or suppositories daily for chronic backaches beginning in 1976.

I switched to Shark Cartilage capsules in 1994 due to wider availability and lower cost. In 1989 I began to refine Catrix cream and then in 1996 started creating my own improved Amazing Pain-Less Cream, combining Shark Cartilage with Aloe, Arnica Montana, Chamomile, and natural healing elements. The result is truly amazing.

Amazing Pain-Less was first sold at my store, Purple Sage, in Santa Fe July 2001 and shortly thereafter in Fairway Markets in New York City. It has been very rewarding to hear how Amazing Pain-Less is helping relieve or eliminate pain and promote healing.
