Paul’s Miracle Oil

S

ince 1993 Paul’s Miracle Oil has been produced by Paul from aromatherapy oils to ease the pain of arthritis, rheumatism, sports injuries, aching joints and muscles. In fact, this wonderful oil has been providing our satisfied customers with effective pain relief for over 20 years.

Thankfully, our Miracle Oil actually does what it claims it will do; it relieves pain. And in this world ADVERTISE - Book Online www.link-mag.co.uk 0800 970 7687 or sales@link-mag.co.uk

of half-truths, mumbo jumbo and empty hype, that’s quite a relief in itself.

By the way, we didn’t call it ‘Miracle Oil’. The name was given to it by one of our very first customers who found that after using the oil their excruciating pain had gone away.

Paul’s Miracle Oil alleviates the pain associated with both short and long-term conditions. And, you’ll even find its subtle natural scent is rather pleasant too with a gentle, calming and soothing effect.

Protect Your Family’s Inheritance Against Care Home Fees We spend our working lives providing for our families, paying taxes and saving for retirement. Many of us fear that our children’s inheritance will be lost to pay for Care Home fees in later life.

The 7 Year Myth Some people believe that transferring their home into their children’s names prevents the Local Authority from including the property in their assessment for care fees if the gift was made more than 7 years ago.

THIS IS A MYTH. The so-called “7 year rule” does not apply to Local Authority means tests for care fees.

Property Protection Trust Wills The Wills and Trusts Lawyer can enable you to legally safeguard at least 50% of the value of your home being lost to fund care home fees. The cost is just £575 per couple – typically around only one week’s care home fees.
