Gebauer's Spray and Stretch® is a premier topical anesthetic designed to provide instant relief from myofascial pain and facilitate trigger point release. This skin refrigerant is an essential tool for healthcare professionals focused on treating muscle spasms, restricted motion, and minor sports injuries. Ideal for use with the spray and stretch technique, it offers an effective, fast-acting solution for managing discomfort and enhancing mobility.

Uses

  • Myofascial Pain Relief: Effectively targets areas of pain for quick relief.
  • Trigger Point Release: Aids in deactivating trigger points that cause referred pain.
  • Muscle Spasms and Restricted Motion: Offers temporary relief to enhance muscle flexibility.
  • Minor Sports Injuries: Provides rapid cooling to manage acute pain from sports-related injuries.

Dosage and Directions

  1. Preparation: Clean and dry the affected area to ensure optimal results.
  2. Application: Hold the can 12–18 inches from the skin and apply a fine mist to the targeted muscle area. Use a sweeping motion to cover the area evenly.
  3. Stretch: Immediately follow with gentle stretching of the muscle to maximize effectiveness.
  4. Repeat: If necessary, repeat the sequence until sufficient relief is achieved.

CDC Guidelines

While the CDC does not specifically regulate topical anesthetics, it advises careful use of such products to minimize skin irritation and avoid unnecessary exposure, particularly in sensitive populations or open wounds.

Details and Features

  • Non-Drug Formulation: Safe for a wide range of patients without the risks associated with medications.
  • Non-Flammable: Enhances safety during application.
  • Rapid Cooling: Quickly decreases pain sensation to facilitate therapeutic stretching.
  • Convenient Size: The 3.5 oz can is easy to handle and transport, making it perfect for clinical or on-the-field use.

Mechanism of Action

Gebauer's Spray and Stretch works by rapidly cooling the skin, disrupting the pain transmission cycle and raising the pain threshold. This temporary numbing effect allows muscles to be more pliable and receptive to stretching, ultimately helping to deactivate trigger points and relieve spasms and referred pain.

Warnings

  • Skin Sensitivity: Test on a small area first to check for adverse reactions.
  • Avoid Eyes and Mucous Membranes: Can cause irritation if it comes into contact with eyes or sensitive areas.
  • Do Not Use on Open Wounds: The product is for external use only and should not be applied to broken skin.
  • Keep Out of Reach of Children: Supervise usage in pediatric patients carefully.

Side Effects

Possible side effects include:

  • Temporary skin redness
  • Mild irritation or discomfort at the application site
  • Rarely, allergic reactions or skin sensitivity

Note: If severe reactions occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional.

Elevate your pain management strategy with Gebauer's Spray and Stretch®—the trusted choice for quick, effective relief in myofascial therapy and sports medicine.

  • What happens when you get refrigerant on your skin?

    When refrigerant (such as Freon or skin refrigerant spray) contacts skin, it can cause rapid cooling, resulting in freeze burns or frostbite. Always use skin refrigerant sprays as directed and take caution to avoid prolonged skin contact or misuse. For accidental exposure to industrial refrigerants, seek medical attention immediately.

  • What is the numbing spray for dialysis patients?

    For dialysis patients, doctors typically use a topical numbing spray (like ethyl chloride or skin refrigerant spray) to numb the skin before needle insertion, reducing procedural pain and discomfort.

  • What is the cold spray for numbing?

    Cold sprays for numbing, such as skin refrigerant spray or ethyl chloride, provide instant localized anesthesia by cooling the skin surface before injections, blood draws, minor surgeries, or sports injuries.

  • How long does numbing spray last on skin?

    The numbing effect of skin refrigerant spray usually lasts 2–5 minutes, providing a critical window for pain-free needle procedures or injury management.

  • How to treat Freon burn on skin fast?

    For a Freon or refrigerant burn, promptly remove any contaminated clothing, rinse the skin with lukewarm water for 15–20 minutes, and avoid rubbing the area. Seek emergency medical care if blisters, severe burns, or persistent pain occur.

  • What to do if you get sprayed with Freon?

    For a Freon or refrigerant burn, promptly remove any contaminated clothing, rinse the skin with lukewarm water for 15–20 minutes, and avoid rubbing the area. Seek emergency medical care if blisters, severe burns, or persistent pain occur.

  • What spray do doctors use to numb skin?

    Doctors often use ethyl chloride skin refrigerant spray or lidocaine topical sprays to numb skin before injections, IVs, or minor surgical procedures.

  • What is the strongest topical numbing?

    The strongest topical numbing products include prescription-strength lidocaine (5%) and other anesthetic sprays, gels, or creams, proven for deep or extended numbing.

  • What are the side effects of cold spray?

    Possible side effects of cold spray include skin irritation, redness, temporary numbness, and—in rare cases—freeze burns or allergic reactions. Always follow instructions and avoid overuse.
