Great product!
Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I have a history of radiation to the head and neck due to cancer. I usually use xylimelts for nighttime which are my go-to. And I can't really sleep without them. But because I use the xylimelts every night, I sometimes get sore gums. I bought this as an alternative. It works well but not as great as xylimelts. It keeps the cheeks and gums hydrated but not the tongue. I still woke up and had to have water because my tongue was dried out. It's the best backup to xylimelts I have found for overnight relief so far. Definitely going to buy again. Likely for daytime use and as a backup to xylimelts.

great book
Format: Hardcover
Another great book on Structural therapy. When Minuchin writes, it feels like he is speaking directly to you. Not many books are both educational and enjoyable, but his are. If you are interested in studying Structural, you want this book.
