You've kicked the blanket off again
Not because you're hot. Because anything touching your feet right now, even a sheet, makes the burning worse. So they're out, propped on top of the covers, and you're lying very still hoping stillness helps.
It doesn't, not really. Some nights it's burning. Some nights it's pins and needles, or that heavy, thick feeling like your feet are wrapped in something. Either way, sleep is a long way off.
The frustrating part isn't just the feeling. It's that nobody ever told you what to actually do about it.
You've done your homework
Here's the problem with burning feet
Blocked sinuses, everyone knows the fix: a nasal spray. Sore muscles, everyone knows the fix: a heat pack. Burning, tingling feet? There isn't a well-known answer. So most people end up trying everything, in some order like this.
this
Paracetamol or ibuprofen
Standard painkillers are built to calm inflammation and tissue-level pain. Nerve-type burning and tingling comes from a different signal entirely, which is why these barely touch it, no matter how many you take.
this
Compression socks
Genuinely useful for circulation and swelling, and worth keeping. But they were built to support blood flow, not to quiet the nerve signal that's actually producing the burning. Different job.
this
A "neuropathy" cream from the pharmacy
The one product actually marketed for this. And here's the part almost nobody explains before you buy it: it works by burning you worse, on purpose, before it burns less.
That cream is almost always capsaicin, chilli pepper extract.
What the label doesn't lead with
It's designed to burn you first
Capsaicin creams work by triggering the nerve endings until they essentially exhaust themselves and stop signalling as strongly. That's a genuinely clever piece of chemistry. It's just a rough thing to live through.
Warmth, tingling, or mild burning may happen. Wear gloves during application and wash hands thoroughly afterwards.
Apply 3 to 4 times daily. Most people feel increased burning for the first 1 to 2 weeks before any relief.
Stick with it through the initial burning phase, most people who quit do so right before it starts working.Based on published clinical trial reviews of topical capsaicin for nerve pain. Individual experiences vary, and prescription-strength capsaicin used under a doctor's supervision is a different product to low-dose OTC creams.
Show me the alternative →Clearing up the confusion
None of this is you doing it wrong
Nerve-type pain behaves differently to ordinary aches, and almost nothing about how it's usually explained makes that obvious. Here's what tends to get muddled.
| What people assume | What's actually going on |
|---|---|
| The cream burns worse, it must be working extra hard | That's not a strength signal. That's simply how capsaicin's mechanism works, burn first, by design, regardless of how well it ends up helping you. |
| My painkillers aren't strong enough, I need something stronger | Standard painkillers target inflammation and tissue injury, not nerve signals. Strength isn't really the variable, the mechanism is. |
| My compression socks should be doing more than this | They support circulation and reduce swelling. They were never built to quiet a nerve signal, so "more" isn't the fix either. |
| If it's sold specifically for nerve pain, it must be right for me | Being marketed for a symptom and being tolerable enough to actually stick with are two different things, which is exactly why dropout on capsaicin runs so high. |
Nobody should have to burn to make the burning stop
The difference that matters
A burn-in phase, or none at all
This is the whole idea. One approach asks you to tolerate worse symptoms for weeks on the promise it'll be worth it. The other doesn't ask that of you.
Capsaicin cream
- Burns worse for the first 1-2 weeks
- Up to two-thirds of people quit before it works
- Strong chilli-derived smell
- Gloves recommended for application
- Targets one mechanism only
The Peacemaker duo
- Calming sensation from first use
- No burn-in phase to push through
- Naturally derived ingredients
- Applied bare-handed, just a normal massage
- Two creams, two jobs: inflammation and nerve comfort
The alternative
Meet the Relief Duo
This isn't one cream doing everything. It's two creams doing two separate jobs, used in the right order.
OG Cream goes on first, wiped over and around the affected area to calm the inflammation and irritated skin that usually sits alongside nerve-type discomfort. Physio Cream goes in second, massaged in properly to work on the tingling, burning and heavy sensations themselves, once the OG Cream has had time to absorb.
Wipe on the OG Cream
Wipe, don't rub, a small amount onto and around the affected area. You're placing it on the skin, not working it in yet.
Let it sit for 5-10 minutes
Give it time to absorb on its own. This is the step almost everyone skips, and skipping it is the difference between the routine working properly and not.
Massage in the Physio Cream
Now work it in properly. Massage a generous amount into the same area in circular motions until fully absorbed.

Who makes it
Mitch didn't set out to build a cream company
Peacemaker Healing was founded by Mitch, a medically retired veteran who served in both the Australian and New Zealand Defence Forces.
He was forced to retire in 2016 with serious physical injuries and post traumatic stress. He learned firsthand what it's like to search for relief that doesn't come with a long list of trade-offs.
So he started making things. Not for a market, for himself and the people around him. The range grew out of what actually helped, sold one tube at a time at the Cairns markets before it ever had a website.
Peacemaker Healing runs as a profit for purpose business, supporting veterans, first responders and their families affected by PTSD.
No mystery formula
What's actually in the duo
In the OG Cream
Arnica Montana
Traditionally applied to areas of strain or tension, alongside support for healthy circulation and easing feelings of soreness.
Boswellia Serrata
A botanical extract traditionally used to support the body's natural response to irritated, inflamed areas.

Commonly included in joint-support formulas, blended in to round out the OG Cream's everyday comfort profile.

Worth doing alongside the duo
A few other things that genuinely help
The duo isn't meant to be the only thing in your routine. These cost nothing and stack well with it.
Ankle pumps and toe stretches
Point your toes away, then flex them back toward you, 10-15 times. Gentle movement like this supports circulation to the feet.
A warm foot soak
A few minutes in warm water a couple of times a week can help blood vessels open up and takes the edge off tired, aching feet.
Check your footwear
Tight shoes and socks restrict circulation right where you need it most. Seamless socks and shoes with room to move help more than people expect.
General movement and circulation guidance drawn from physical therapy resources on foot exercises. Start gently and check with your doctor or podiatrist before beginning new exercise if you have diabetes or reduced sensation in your feet.

For the past 10 years I have had no feeling in my feet, no sensitivity at all I dealt with chronic numbness & pins & needles and deep aching either across my feet or in the soles of my feet, every morning it was like walking on broken glass, those days are over now, I rang Mitch and told him about my problem he spent over 30 minutes talking to me suggesting the right products, fast forward 9 days I have full feeling in both feet and I’m pain free……thank you so much

Before you ask
Questions we get a lot
Do I really need both creams, or can I just get Physio Cream?
Physio Cream works on its own, and plenty of people use it that way. The two-step routine exists because a lot of nerve-type discomfort sits alongside inflammation and irritated skin, which is what OG Cream is there for. Used together, each one is doing the job it's actually built for.
Will it burn like capsaicin cream?
No. You'll feel a cooling and warming sensation from the menthol and camphor, not a burning-in period. If you have particularly sensitive skin, patch test a small amount on your inner arm first.
Is this safe if I have diabetes or reduced feeling in my feet?
These are cosmetic topical creams for external use, not a treatment for any medical condition. If you have diabetes, reduced sensation, or any wound on your feet that isn't healing, please check with your doctor or podiatrist before starting any new topical routine, and always inspect your feet regularly yourself.
How long until I notice a difference?
Everyone's different, and individual experiences vary. Many people notice the cooling and warming sensation immediately, with regular daily use being where people tend to report the most benefit.
Can I use the duo alongside my current medication?
These are topical, external-use creams, so they don't interact with oral medication the way two tablets might. If you're on prescription nerve pain medication, keep taking it as directed by your doctor and don't stop or change it based on anything on this page.
What if it doesn't help?
Then send it back. There's a 90 day money back guarantee, and Mitch and the team handle those personally.
Do you sell a bigger size?
Both creams are also available in 250ml on their product pages if you know you'll be going through the 120ml quickly.
Stop waiting for the burning to just go away
Two creams, the right order, no burn-in phase required.
