Testimonials
Here are some user feedbacks:
- “ I use my Holi daily to improve my transit (I tend to get constipated easily), the circulation in my legs and reduce my PMS. As a bonus, I saw my libido increase! Thank you Maholi. ” Noémie
- “ I've had several problems for a year: endometriosis with unbearable pain, insomnia because I'm too hot, especially in summer under the roof, digestive problems and fatigue... after having tried all possible treatments, even powerful medications, I told myself that it was always better to try natural rather than continuing to dope myself in vain. So I received the holi. Results: I sleep like a baby until 9 a.m., I no longer have too much pain from my endometriosis, my stomach no longer hurts because of difficult digestion and above all I feel a general feeling of well-being that I had never felt before!!! In short, I recommend it to everyone, even those who do not have chronic or inflammatory "problems". The feeling of well-being is immediate and prolonged! I can no longer do without my cold pack for the perineum. I even ordered some for my darling and he feels the same benefits as me even though he was very skeptical at first but seeing the change in me, he tried. Opt for a natural solution like cold, you won't be disappointed .” Jeanne.
