FlexiSEQ Joint Wear & Tear Pain Relief Gel is a drug-free joint lubrication gel designed to support joints affected by everyday wear and tear.

Unlike conventional topical pain-relief medicines, FlexiSEQ does not contain an NSAID such as ibuprofen. Instead, it uses Sequessome® technology, consisting of microscopic vesicles containing phospholipids. Phospholipids naturally occur in the body and contribute to the lubricating properties of synovial fluid and cartilage.

When applied correctly to the soft tissue surrounding a joint, FlexiSEQ forms a thin film on the skin. The product is designed to provide lubricating support while helping maintain joint flexibility and mobility and reduce the incidence of pain.

FlexiSEQ is suitable for active joints that experience everyday physical demands, making it particularly convenient for people who enjoy walking, cycling, exercise, sports or other activities.

It can be used around a range of joints, including the hands, knees, hips and shoulders. For best results, it should be applied twice daily, normally in the morning and evening, to clean, dry skin and allowed to dry before the area is covered.

What Is FlexiSEQ Used For?

FlexiSEQ is designed for joint wear and tear and can be used to support:

  • Joint comfort
  • Joint flexibility
  • Joint mobility
  • Stiff or uncomfortable joints
  • Everyday joint wear and tear
  • Joint discomfort associated with an active lifestyle
  • Pain associated with osteoarthritis and joint wear and tear

Suitable Application Areas

FlexiSEQ can be used around:

  • Knees
  • Hands and fingers
  • Hips
  • Shoulders
  • Other suitable synovial joints as directed

Knee

Apply a line of gel approximately the length of your index finger to the back and sides of the knee, covering the soft tissue around the joint.

Do not apply to the kneecap.

Hands

Apply a small, approximately pea-sized amount to each affected knuckle and spread evenly around the joint.

Avoid washing the hands for approximately 10–15 minutes after application.

Shoulder

Apply a line of gel approximately the length of your index finger to the soft tissue around the painful area.

Avoid applying directly over the shoulder blade or bone.

Hip

Locate the edge of the hip bone and apply a line of gel approximately the length of your index finger to the soft tissue below the bone.

How FlexiSEQ Works

FlexiSEQ contains microscopic phospholipid-containing droplets known as Sequessomes®.

The main phospholipid used is phosphatidylcholine, which is plant-derived from soybean. Phospholipids naturally occur in the body and contribute to the lubricating properties of synovial fluid and cartilage.

The gel is applied to the skin surrounding the joint, where its lubricating technology is intended to support comfortable joint movement.

Directions for Use

  1. Use FlexiSEQ twice daily, normally morning and evening.
  2. Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application.
  3. Apply enough gel to evenly cover the soft tissue surrounding the affected joint.
  4. Do not rub the gel into the skin.
  5. Gently spread the gel into a thin, even layer.
  6. Leave the gel exposed to the air and allow it to dry completely.
  7. Drying should normally take approximately 10 minutes.
  8. Once dry, the area may be covered with clothing if required.
  9. Wash your hands after application, unless the hands are being treated.
  10. For hand application, avoid washing the treated area for approximately 10–15 minutes.
  11. Continue using regularly according to the product instructions.

Correct application is important because FlexiSEQ is designed to form a thin film rather than being rubbed fully into the skin.

Important Usage Instructions

  • Apply to clean, dry skin.
  • Use twice daily for optimum support.
  • Do not rub the gel into the skin.

  • Do not apply over the kneecap when treating the knee.
