    SWISS MEDICA’S 024 PAIN RELIEF SOLUTION CELEBRATES 10TH CONSECUTIVE YEAR AS A SAFE
    ALTERNATIVE TO PAIN PILLS; 2ND ANNIVERSARY OF US PATENT

    Toronto, Canada – Following the September 30th announcement of Merck & Co’s worldwide withdrawal of its
    COX-2 medicine Vioxx, Chief Executive Officer, Raghu Kilambi is pleased to announce, “The 024 Essential Oil
    Pain Neutralizer now celebrates its 10th Anniversary as a safe pain relief alternative to the numerous pills hoping
    to provide solutions to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bursitis, sciatica, back/neck/shoulder pains,
    fibromyalgia, neuritis/neuralgia, and similar ailments.” In September, the 024 Arthritis Relief Solution celebrated
    its 2nd anniversary of having received U.S. Patent Number 6,444,238 entitled “A pain relief composition and a
    method of relieving pain in a human body.” The US Patent specifically notes: “The pain relief composition of the
    present invention is formulated from organically derived essential oils. As such, the pain relief composition
    provides consumers with a technique to reduce the level of pain while not using artificial, man-made
    compositions. The organically-derived nature of the composition of the present invention has substantial value
    to those individuals who desire to reduce pain without using artificial, man-made compositions.”

    Highlights of the 024 Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer medical pedigree over the past decade are as follows.

    1. Recently, 024 inventor, Richard Weise announced, “People, who have been using this product for ten years,
    use just this product and nothing else. A lot of people over-medicate for their chronic pain. In some cases, 024
    replaces the use of pharmaceutical products altogether. Some of the arthritis patients use it three to four times a
    day.”

    2. In a medical report filed by Dr. Rudolph Reithmair, Senior Consultant Surgeon for the Emergency Surgery
    Department of Freyung Hospital (Germany), “From January 1st to December 31st 2000, 024 Essential Oil Pain
    Neutralizer was tested in the hospital at Freyung in the general surgery department during a study based on
    more than 1000 patients. Additionally, a study was done involving ice skaters. The success was overwhelming.
    384 patients with uncomplicated fractures, crushes, excoriations and contusions used 024 Essential Oil Pain
    Neutralizer. Except for fractures, the time needed for complete convalescence was shortened by 6 days using
    024 Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer.

    3. A medical report was filed by Dr. Andreas Frydrych, M.D., Head Doctor for Neural Surgery Clinic in Cologne
    (Germany), following a three-month study for product efficacy, stating, “024 Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer was
    used immediately following surgery. In addition, I have used 024 Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer with chronic pain
    patients during my visitation hours. In our test groups, the following results were shown:

    • Applied locally, swelling went down fast and the healing process shortened
    • Chemical substances, particularly analgesics were not needed when using 024 Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer
    Pain of muscle, joint and ligament was nearly completely removed using 024 Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer”

    4. In a 5-day independent treatment study, conducted by Dr. W. Eckart Friedel, Medical Director of the Bad
    Bocklet Clinic near Hanover, Germany, wrote, “The study comprised 41 women (average 49.9 years) who had
    been suffering from fibromyalgia over several years. In the patients suffering from fibromyalgia examined in the
    course of this study, the application of 024 Pain Relief three times a day over a period of 5 days resulted in a
    significant pain relief by approximately 61%. Side effects, even minor ones such as skin irritations, were not
    observed in any of the patients. 024 Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer has a quick-acting cooling effect and is
    therefore especially suited for injuries, contusions and sprains. On account of its excellent efficacy and
    tolerance, the preparation can thus be recommended to patients suffering from fibromyalgia to support their
    analgesic therapy.”

    5. According to Dr. E. Michael Gutman, an Orlando (Florida) physician, who has practiced medicine for nearly 40
    years, “Out of the 150 to 250 patients who have used 024, probably 50 are fibromyalgia patients that have used
    024 at our Back Pain Management Clinic in Orlando. 024 came out and will revolutionize the treatment of
    musculoskeletal conditions.”

    6. According to Brad Estra, president of Sinai Medical Center in Palm Beach (Florida), “It has been especially
    effective in our rehab unit and is now being used on a daily basis for pain management by our staff. 024 is a
    great product with enormous market potential in the medical environment.”
