The Healing Tree: Bamboo Pro™ Self-Warming Knee Support Review


Healing Tree Products   Where Wellness Grows
Disclosure: I received the below product in exchange for my honest review. All opinions and experiences are my own and may differ from those of your own. 

The Healing Tree
The Healing Tree is a family owned and operated business. On March 7th, 2005 they opened an Apothecary & Tea Bar in Thousand Oaks, California. Here they specialize in tea & herbs from around the world, natural health products and practitioner services. In 2011, they opened a new wholesale and online retail division in which they created their own brands of natural wellness products for everyday living. 

The Healing Tree's mission is to provide effective and affordable natural health products worldwide. Most of the products that are offered are made with Bamboo Charcoal Technology which reacts with your body heat to provide a self-warming, natural relief. 

The Healing Tree offers a wide range of products, including, but not limited to:
Joint Supports
Women's Apparel
Body Relief Products
Personal Care
Pet Products

These products are offered in Independent Mom & Pop Shops and have been listed in several nationwide catalogs and eCommerce retailers. They also offer their products in Canada, UK, Australia and Denmark.

Bamboo Pro Self-Warming Knee Support

We received the Bamboo Pro™ Self-Warming Knee Support from The Healing Tree ($19.99ARV). This knee support contains Bamboo Charcoal Technology that offers self-warming properties. Other supports do not activate with your body heat. This support does and when it does it restores warmth to your muscles, cartilage and joints. This natural heat increases blood circulation which in turn delivers proteins, nutrients and oxygen to the affected area. It helps to relieve discomfort, achy joints due to aging, enhances muscle performance and recovery. No need to worry about overheating with bamboo charcoal. If you overheat the bamboo charcoal fluctuates in temperature and provides cooling relief. Bamboo Pro™ is a safe and effective, easy to use product. It can be worn all day and night for long-lasting and natural relief. 

Both Dan and I have bad knees. His are due to poor care of his body when younger. Mine... well, basically all of my joints are "bad" due to my Ankylosing Spondylitis. Our knee pain is different, this knee wrap greatly helped my knee pain and discomfort. While I had great relief from this product, unfortunately for Dan, the size I received for myself was too small for his much larger knee. I received a Medium knee support and he would probably need a large.

I like that the knee support is thin allowing for each free movement of the knee. It's not too tight on the back of my knee nor has it bunched up. Dan tried a different knee support last year and it seriously bunched up behind his knee making it rather uncomfortable for him. When I first put the knee support on it took some getting used to, it's hard to explain, but it was kind of weird to walk with it on. I've noticed when I walk or even at rest, when my knee is bent it feels warm, but then when I extend my leg making my knee straight or if I lock my knee it feels cool. Weird, cool, odd... something to get used to.

My great grandma was having knee problems when she was living in town here with my grandma so I let her borrow it. She is 90 years old and still walks so I knew as soon as my grandma told me about her knee pain that I needed to let her use this. She needs it more then I do. From what I've gathered she likes the knee support and it does help.

We both greatly enjoy the Bamboo Pro™ Self-Warming Knee Support. After using this product I am definitely interested in trying other products from The Healing Tree. I have also suggested this product to other family members since receiving it and having had used it myself.

Proudly Brings You The
Zim's Naturally-Based Products Giveaway

1 - Tube of Zim's Advanced Organic Crack Creme with Hydrocortisone (3 oz tube)
1 - Bottle of Zim's  Max-Freeze (6.2 oz bottle)
1 - Tube of Zim's Arnica Max Gel (3 oz tube)


Recently Holiday Contest and Sweeps had the pleasure to review Zim's Naturally Based Products  which left me amazed at how well it works. Their Advanced Crack Creme with Aloe and Hydrocortisone , Arnica Max Gel and Max Freeze are products we should all have on hand for our skin care and aches and pains.

Zim's is dedicated to bringing you innovative naturally-based products that live up to their brand promise in every way. Their goal is to improve the lives of consumers with our brands that include over 25 products that are packed with the best of nature and range from skin care to pain relief gels. Lets take a look a three of Zim's products that I had the chance to try out and that are included in the prize packages.

If your like me in the Summer, your constantly being bothered by Mosquito bites and there is nothing more irritating  than to have to suffer from the itching these bites  bring. With Zim's Advanced Crack Creme with Hyrdocortisone and Aloe you will get relief from the itching along with your skin feeling soothed at the same time. 



With eight Grandchildren running around outside your always watching to make sure they don't come in contact with something that will harm them. But when your children or grandchildren play outside all the time, they stand the chance to come in contact with poison ivy, poison oak and sumac.When you use Calamine lotion on these types skin conditions it has the tendency to leave your skin dried out and cracked. Zim's Advanced Organic Crack Cream with Aloe and Hydrocortisone not only provide you with relief from the itching but soothes your skin making it less irritated. Zim's Advanced Organic Crack Creme with Aloe and Hydrocortisone also temporarily relieves itching and rashes caused by insect bites along with dermatitis.


Daily I suffer neck and back pain and have tried just about everything on the market to get relief, but after trying Max-Freeze it's like a little slice of heaven for pain relief. It works great for giving you relief from sore muscles as well as providing you with relief from aching ankle, knee, hip and elbow joints,  muscle sprains and discomfort in your back, shoulders and neck.

Zim's Max-Freeze 360 degree Continuous Spray allows you to reach those painful areas that you can't reach with typical pain relief gels. Simply spray it on the painful area, there is no need to rub it in, just let it dry on it's own. In seconds you will begin to experience the relief from it's active ingredient, menthol. Zim's Max-Freeze is a grease less and the sent of menthol vanished after a few seconds. Max-Freeze is made from Organic Ilex, Aloe and Arnica along with Vitamin E and Tea Tree Oil.

Zim's Arnica Max Gel

Another great product that Zim's makes for discomfort caused from minor aches and pains muscles and joints associated with simple backaches, arthritis, strains, bruises and sprains is their Arnica Max Gel. Arnica Gel is a non-greasy, non-sticky gel quickly absorbed by the skin. For relief of muscle aches and stiffness due to minor injuries, overexertion, falls and blows. Reduces pain, swelling and discoloration from bruises. Arnica Montana is a mountain plant (leopards bane) found in the Northwest part of the United States as well as Central Europe. Generations of athletes, trainers and parents have long enjoyed the relief Arnica provides. Recently on the Dr. Oz show is talked about Arnica on his television  show.
