Luminas Pain Relief Patches
Luminas Pain Relief Patches: They treat everything through ... energy (wait, no, magic).
Energy. Quacks keep using that word. I do not believe it means what they believe it means. Luminas doesn't. Yes, I understand that I utilize a great deal of variations on that well-known quote from The Princess Bride all the time, probably more often than I should and most likely to the point of irritating a few of my readers, however, damn, if it isn't an almost versatile expression to utilize to riff on various quackery.
Also, if there's one principle that quacks love to abuse, it's energy. Whether it's "energy healing" like reiki, where practitioners claim to be able to channel recovery energy from the wonderful mystical "universal source" particularly into their patient to particularly heal whatever ails them, even if it's from a range or you're a dog, or "healing touch," where practitioners claim to be able to control their clients' "life energy" fields, once again to healing result, so much https://www.facebook.com/LuminasRelief/ quackery is based on a misconception of "energy" as generally magic. It is with some stunningly funny woo that I came throughout last week and, given that it's Friday, chose to feature as a sort of Friday Dosage of Woo Lite. It even abuses quantum theory since of course, it does. Much quackery does.
What are we talking about here? What is Luminas? To be truthful, more than anything else, it reminds me of the ridiculous "Body Vibes" energy stickers that Gwyneth Paltrow and Goop were selling last year (and most likely still are) that claim to "rebalance the energy frequency in our bodies," whatever that implies. Let's look at the claims.
Right on the front page of the Luminas website, you'll discover a video. It's well-produced, as numerous such videos for quackery are, and it blathers on about how the product being promoted makes the most of "revolutions in quantum physics," as a lot of quackery does. Let's see how this charming patch apparently works.
The basic claim is that the Luminas patch is charged with the "energetic signatures of natural solutions known for centuries to decrease inflammation." These natural treatments include "Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Amino Acids, Arnica, Astaxanthin, B-Complex, Berberis Vulgaris, Bioperine, Boluoke, Boswellia, Bromelain, Chamomile, Chinchona, Chondroitin, Clove, Colostrum, CoQ10, Cordyceps, Curcumin, Flower Essences Frankincense, Ginger, Ginseng, Glucosamine, Glutathione, Guggulu, Hops Extract, K2, Lavender, Magnesium, Motherwort, MSM, Olive Leaf, Omega-3, Peony, Proteolytic Enzymes, Polyphenols, Rosemary Extract, Telomerase Activators, Turmeric, Vinpocetine, Vitamin D, White Willow Bark and over 200 more!"

How many of you suffer from occasional pain or chronic pain? The Luminas Pain Relief Patches takes minutes to work and lasts for up to 3 days. Every day I have abdominal pain, leg & foot pain, lower back pain and hip pain from a hip replacement. I have actually been using the pain relief patches for 2 weeks now and I can honestly tell you that they do help to relieve pain, however I didn't get adequate pain relief to stop taking my regular pain medication.
