A Golfer's Best Kept Secret
(ARA) – Living in an area where golf is a year round
obsession, joint pain can quickly become a playing
companion. That used to be the case for Ross Helfer of
Charlotte, N.C.
He suffered from both tendonitis in his right arm and
chronic knee pain brought on by a tear to the meniscus (a
wedge of cartilage in the knee joint) in his knee. “Joint
pain doesn’t get in the way of my golf game anymore
though,” he says.
Following corrective knee surgery Helfer turned to a
revolutionary new product to help him get back on the
course. ”Now Ibunex is the most important thing in my
golf bag,” says Helfer. “I just rub a little on my knee and
elbow and in minutes I’m ready for 18 holes, completely
pain free.”
Ibunex, manufactured for Osceola, Wisc.-based Core
Products is a topical cream designed for muscles and
joints. A single .2 gram pump contains a mixture of
Ibuprofen, Glucoasmine, Chondrotin Sulfate, MSM and
Bromelain, all key ingredients known to have wide
benefits in joint health management. But unlike oral
medications that must travel through the entire body
before they reach the area of concern, the Ibunex is
applied directly to the target area.
“I use Ibunex primarily as a preventive thing, but I think
it’s something everyone should carry in their golf bag so
they can put it on the moment they experience pain,”
says Helfer. “When I put it on a spot that hurts, I get relief
in as little as three minutes.”
It seems word about Ibunex is getting around. Golf is big
business in Myrtle Beach, S.C., and a trade group that
promotes the region recently named the cream one of the
top 25 new golf products it saw at the 2008 PGA Show in
Orlando, Fla.
“A lot of the people who come to Myrtle Beach haven’t
played golf for a while, but they will come here and play
36 holes in one day. They frequently end up with a lot of
aches and pains. Most just take Ibuprofen, but Ibunex is
even better and we thought it was something they should
know about,” says Richard Hunsucker, president of
Myrtle Beach Golf Consultants and editor of the Myrtle
Beach Hospitality Guide.
Thanks in part to that endorsement, Ibunex is now turning
up at golf pro shops nationwide. It is also available for
purchase through health care providers and the
company’s website: www.coreproductslaboratories.com.
