5/5
I braid hair in Kawempe, standing eight hours a day with my arms up. By night my shoulders and neck felt like wood.
My neighbour lent me her jar of Motion Energy. I rub a bit in after I close the salon and I also stretch for five minutes. I go to bed looser than before.

The pack gives no fixed hour. Most people reach for a warming gel after work, when muscles are tired, and avoid it right before a hot bath.
Use a small amount as the pack directs and wash your hands after. Stop and rinse if the warmth turns into burning.
Keep to one product on the same patch at a time. Layers of warming products can irritate skin, so test on a small spot first.
It is for adults. Thin or sensitive skin in older people may react sooner, so start with a very small amount; keep it away from children.
A name and a phone number are enough. Mobile money, card and bank details are not part of the form.
An agent phones to settle your area, a landmark for the rider, the amount you need and a day that suits you.
You hand over the shillings after the parcel has reached you, never before.
