Maximum Relief for Tough Pain.
MAXX targets deep, stubborn discomfort with 18 natural ingredients and 1.5% menthol — powerful enough for tough pain, gentle enough to use every day.
Arthritis. Back pain. Joint stiffness. Muscle strains and sprains. These are the kinds of aches that ordinary topicals barely touch. MAXX was built specifically for them — delivering intensive, targeted relief without the burning, stinging, or chemical overload that makes most strong pain creams so difficult to use regularly.
No NSAIDs. No acetaminophen. No parabens. No artificial dyes. Just a precise blend of time-tested natural ingredients that work with your body — not against it.
Maximum Relief for Tough Pain.
Shop MAXX NowMAXX is Real Time’s intensive topical relief formula — formulated for the deeper, more stubborn discomfort that needs something stronger than everyday topicals can deliver.
MAXX targets inflamed, stiff joints with a concentrated blend of botanical and joint-supportive ingredients including Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and Arnica. Fast-absorbing and non-greasy, it’s gentle enough to use every time you need it.
Back pain can change the whole course of your day. MAXX delivers intensive support directly to the area, helping ease deep, nagging discomfort so you can move, work, and live the way you want to.
Whether it’s from a tough workout, a long shift, or a weekend on the field, MAXX targets overworked muscles and strained tissue with a multi-ingredient botanical formula that goes well beyond basic menthol.
Stiff necks and tight shoulders respond well to MAXX’s fast-absorbing formula. Apply directly to the area that’s locked up and feel the difference without the harsh burn of traditional strong topicals.
MAXX includes Arnica and Witch Hazel — two botanicals with a long history of supporting bruised, tender tissue. It’s the targeted help you want when an area has taken a hit and needs real support.
For pain that keeps coming back — fibromyalgia, chronic inflammation, recurring joint issues — MAXX gives you a powerful, natural option you can use regularly without worrying about harsh ingredients or long-term side effects.
Most “maximum strength” topicals earn that label by overwhelming your senses — an intense freeze or deep chemical heat that distracts you from the pain. That’s not relief. That’s misdirection.
MAXX takes a completely different approach. Its 1.5% menthol level is precisely calibrated — enough to deliver the initial cooling signal your receptors respond to, balanced so you can apply it multiple times throughout the day without irritation or sensitivity. Learn why menthol levels matter →
Supporting that menthol are 17 additional natural ingredients — botanicals, joint-supportive compounds, and skin-nourishing oils selected for both their effectiveness and their safety with long-term, repeated use. Explore the ingredients and their benefits →
Here’s something most pain relief brands won’t tell you: some common topical ingredients can actually elevate Substance P, a neuropeptide directly linked to how your body perceives and amplifies pain over time.
For people dealing with chronic conditions — arthritis, fibromyalgia, recurring back or joint pain — using products that trigger Substance P elevation can quietly make the problem worse the longer you use them.
MAXX was formulated specifically to avoid this. Every ingredient was evaluated not just for its pain-relief properties, but for its safety with long-term, repeated use. That’s the Real Time difference.
The truth about Substance P and chronic pain →Every ingredient in MAXX was selected for a reason. Here are the key players and what they bring to the formula.
