Get Your Body's Life Back

Do you suffer with the odd twinge in your neck or shoulders from too much computer lounging? Or lower back pain or a knee ache that comes and goes but is starting to linger for longer as you hobble around in the early mornings? Sometimes it’s your hands or feet that ache and can wake you in the night adding insomnia and frustration to your symptoms.

Most of the time inflammation is the cause of joint and muscle pain. Overdoing a repetitive movement or just not exercising and slowing the blood circulation to the muscles, leads to stiffness and aching. Aches and pains can take over every part of your life. Left untreated, joint pain will only get worse. If you want to avoid ibuprofen based drugs and other risky anti-inflammatory medications, recently highlighted in the media, then a good quality health supplement can work wonders.

JointFX is not a chemical drug, but a combination of naturally occurring vitamins and minerals so you need to ensure you follow the instructions on the label and build up a regular pattern of dosing once or twice a day. This helps maintain an anti-inflammatory level of nutrients in your system to allow your body to recover, without the associated side effects of chemical based drugs. The powerful anti-inflammatory contents of JointFX and the clever combining of these minerals and vitamins work together, supporting your body in extracting what it needs from your food.

See customer feedback here:




Health Script’s philosophy is to use smart combining of ingredients to deliver the best effect, rather than presenting a huge range of different products resulting in some people “over medicating” on vitamins and risking damage to their kidneys and liver. “We believe less is more,” explains Nicky Webber, GM of Health Script. “Getting the balance right should stimulate your body’s natural response and you’ll get more from lower doses of top quality nutrients than you will from 4 or 6 bottles of different lower grade supplements”. For instance, latest research shows that Chondriton contributes nothing to your joints or muscles. This is from a series of extensive double-blind studies done in Switzerland. So why take it? We removed it from our formula and included other minerals that stimulate your body’s absorption from the food you eat and the supplement itself.”

Being a nutrient based anti-inflammatory means JointFX is effective in helping other kinds of less obvious inflammatory states in the body. Click here to find out more.

Also see the research and evidence on the effectiveness of Tumeric as an anti-inflammatory across a number of health conditions:

Health Script’s online Vitamin Guide details information around every ingredient used in the manufacture of their top quality products.

The effects of the six ingredients in JointFX are:


  • Glucosamine supports joint and muscle mobility, connective tissue and cartilage regeneration.
  • MSM is a powerful natural anti-inflammatory supporting joint and muscle repair.
  • Ginger & Tumeric stimulate blood to inflamed joints, anti inflammatory for the digestive system, liver and skin.
  • Boron & Copper are minerals that improve absorption of Vitamin D, calcium and nutrients from food. Copper also triggers collagen production to support body and skin.

Finding a balance between exercise and rehabilitation will also aid muscle and joint repair. Once you feel up to it resistance training with weights, you can add strength to your muscles and the associated support of your bones will reduce aches and pains. But take it slowly and always check with your health professional before diving straight into a training programme. Stretching and flexing before and after exercise will also help but make sure you take on the right moves associated with the limbs or muscle groups you are having trouble with. I personally recommend a good body massage to relax your mind and of course help stimulate blood directly into aching muscles and joints – so remember to look after yourself too!

Olive Oil is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and it can help by adding more to your diet – I even know people who drink a shot glass of it with their breakfast! Read my blog The Good Oil.

JointFX may not be suitable for people with allergies to fish. Always read the labels and use only as directed. If symptoms persist, consult your healthcare professional. Health Script Ltd, designs and manufactures to New Zealand’s highest quality standards. Gluten and Dairy Free.
