PRODUCT REVIEW: FisiocremSOLUGEL, “kicking some butt” as an ideal muscle gel.
It is seldom unavoidable because of the nature of the game of hockey, it is what a player can expect to experience at some time but definitely not desired, and that is muscular pain, soft tissue injuries, and general muscle soreness. Both prevention and treatment are two areas of injury management that need to be part of a player’s knowledge.
I am not sure about you but I truly know I am hockey when I get that ‘whiff’ of sports rub when I enter the change rooms in preparation for playing. As players we tend to have our ideal sports rub that we hope will assist our performance and help prevent injury and then reapply to any sustained muscular injury, pain or soreness after our game.
There is a ‘smorgasbord’ of topical sports creams, gels, and ointments in the marketplace to choose from. There is a lot of debate as to their true benefits, therefore it is important to know your product so that you are not just receiving a placebo effect from using it.
Out of the many topical products that are available that stands out is FisiocremSOLUGEL It has a growing number of followers because it gets proven results. These followers largely comprise of qualified health practitioners who understand its benefits and use it as part of their patient treatment.

WHAT DO ATHELTES SAY ABOUT fisiocremSOLUGEL?
Kerri Pottharst, Olympic Gold medalist and injury management expert is an ambassador for Fisioncrem. She, like the large number of qualified health practitioners using Fisiocrem as part of their treatment regime, is only satisfied with products that are well researched and results proven.
Having experienced many potentially devastating injuries that threatened to end her professional sporting and coaching career, Kerri, who is currently President of the Beach Volleyball Commission, is highly cognisant of the importance of effective injury management.
While Kerri has endured no less than six knee surgeries, she also recognises that less serious injuries, including soft tissue trauma, muscle soreness, stiffness and inflammation, can cause a range of issues for everyday Australians.
Kerri says “As an advocate for all things natural, I prefer to try an all-natural product, before resorting to products that contain harsh chemicals. I also try to avoid parabens whenever possible and FisiocremSOLUGEL is free of them. I have been an elite athlete for more than 25 years. As I get older, I realise how important it is to take extra good care of myself and use only the best natural products available.”
According to Kerri, it’s not only athletes who experience injuries that require effective management. “Whether it’s your lower back suffering from long hours behind a desk, or sore and stiff legs after a morning beach run, FisiocremSOLUGEL provides effective relief.”
Today, Kerri plays multiple roles as a wife, mother and mentor for other athletes. She also travels the country as a motivational speaker, addressing athletes and corporate teams, and is a renowned keynote speaker.
Kerri strongly believes in taking responsibility for your own success by setting tangible goals and actively finding ways to keep yourself motivated. “It’s not what happens to you that is important. It is how you deal with it that really matters. The same applies to managing injuries. FisiocremSOLUGEL helps you manage the discomfort of everyday aches and pains, allowing you to meet the goals you’ve set for yourself.”
