Comfort in a patch, created by a doctor.

  • Relieve ache and soreness
  • Ease irritation and discomfort
  • Calm inflammation and swelling
  • Reduce tenderness and bruising

How to use

Use in place of a bandage after needle procedures. Simply peel off, stick on, and feel better. We recommend wearing for 8 to 48 hours to cover the typical onset of soreness. For best results, keep dry. You may choose to change daily or more often if needed. After removal, any residue will fade naturally.

FDA statement

The product and claims have not been evaluated by the U.S. FDA and are not approved to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent diseases. For external use only. Do not use if you’re allergic to any ingredients in the patch.

Minimal ingredients for optimal relief.

Yep, this is everything.

Arnica

Arnica montana

More

An herb used for centuries in Western tradition and more recently in homeopathy to relieve muscle pain and bruising. Arnica contains active substances shown to reduce ache and swelling when topically applied.

Turmeric

Curcuma longa

More

A root used in traditional Eastern Medicine to relieve soreness, tenderness, and skin irritation. Turmeric contains high amounts of curcuminoids shown to reduce inflammation, especially in topical applications.

Black Pepper

Piper nigrum

More

The extract is used to improve absorption and bioavailability while offering anti-inflammatory properties of its own. We use Black pepper to help other ingredients penetrate the skin in the area where you place the patch.

Coenzyme Q10

USP Grade for Medicinal Use

More

This antioxidant is found naturally in the human body. CoQ10 helps to sustain the effectiveness of plant-powered ingredients, like the turmeric, arnica, and black pepper in our patch.

Acrylic Adhesive

Dermatologist Approved

More

Selected and tested for gentleness while being strong enough to keep the patch securely in place. If you have a known acrylic allergy, check with your doctor before use.

The Recover Patch

Approved by
patients.

“Crazy how much it seemed to have eliminated all post-injection muscle ache!”

“Knowing the patch would help alleviate pain, it helped ease pre-vaccine anxiety. It was a much better vaccine experience than we’ve ever had in the past.”

“As a clinician, I hear first hand how fears of injections or blood draws prevent many people from getting necessary medical intervention… The Recover patch is a promise of relief post injection—a reminder that there is something to comfort you at the end.”

“Thimble's products give us another tool we can use for our patients. Not only does the Recover patch help with the patient's pain, but it also lets them know that you've acknowledged their anxiety and fear.”

Better than a bandage.

Soothe, calm, and comfort the area while protecting the skin—all at the same time. Our soft, flexible materials are designed for easy wear on arms, legs, stomach, and most common injection sites.

Only where it hurts.

Unlike most patches and oral medication designed to release actives throughout the body, the Recover patch works precisely where it’s needed, for optimal relief without potential side effects.

Caring made easier.

A note from Dr. Dawkins:

“Turmeric can leave a golden color on your skin. If there’s a touch of residue, it will fade naturally.”

 

Thimble takes a human-centered approach, grounded in our founder’s experience with her own family.
