Professional Pain Relief Gel, 4 oz. Tube, Green

We usually used tiger balm but this was recently recommended by my partners physiotherapist for his lower back pain so we tried it. The sensation is like a cool warmth and feels nice on aches. While I’m not sure how effective it would be on acute pain (I haven’t experienced that to test it) I can say it does a good job of easing stiffness in muscles or your back. I had a stiff back for a couple days after a day of carrying heavy things and I was happy to have this for relief. I also like that it’s a gel type consistency and rubs in very easily with no greasy residue to get on clothes. The smell is very “medical” like rubbing alcohol which isn’t terrible and goes away pretty quickly after you’ve rubbed it in.

I was suffering with a new elbow pain that caused me to loose strength in my right arm and grip was basically non-existent. I tried a sample pack of bio freeze from my chiropractor and found it gave a cooling then heating relief from the pain. I couldn't find a reasonably priced full size pack anywhere around London so I looked here and found a great price with a higher menthol amount. I have used the product for a couple weeks and my pain is nearly gone and much more manageable. Pic shows the cologne for size comparison.

Works on my knees and back great

Personally i do not believe creams help relieve pain, pain is there for a reason and it's telling you it needs attention but i do have to admit that sometimes there are times you need relief for pain. I have tired Voltaren, Rub A535, and few other brands but unfortunately nothing seemed to work. I was, i guess still am having pain (i guess you can call sore neck) but is very stiff and is difficult in to rotate it some positions especially with my job where bending, tilting, and lifting is required so it is difficult. If your like me where a massage is not affordable then you have to resort to something like these creams. I have had people recommend this to me, quite actually several times that this is very good cream. I wasn't able to find it in my local area because they don't sell it so i thought i would find it on here which i did. Now it was a difficult choice choosing what was best and the application because there is cream, roll on, and a few other types which i didn't know what to choose so i just decided to buy this one. I have read though that there is TWO different types of this cream. A "old" one and a "new" one and the old seemed to have a type of chemical that wasn't good for you and could cause something (I personally read that on Amazon.com as a review and from the seller of this so i do not know if this is the new or old one but just thought i would state that.) When this arrived, i used it just before i went to bed and I was quite impressed by the feel of it! As soon as you apply the cream, the cream turns cold (almost like ice, but not too cold.) It personally thought it is like burning you but it is actually not! The smell is quite powerful as soon as you apply it but goes away in about 5-10 minutes of it on. I think it is a good smell and can handle a smell like that but if your someone that can't handle the smell then this may not be the best cream for you. It does go away though, just takes time. While it is applied, is stays cold for about half and hour maybe a little longer and then slowly disappears and wears away which then it doesn't really feel like it is doing anything. It does feel like it is working as when i do apply it, my neck feels better and have more mobility but i can say that it doesn't last very long. I wish it would say cold for longer and wish it didn't wear away so quick. It is not good to keep applying it (according to the label) but if it says so then i will not try to apply more. Overall, i think this cream is impressive i should say but i do not think cream it worth the price that it is. I can say that it does work and i do feel "a little" better but there isn't any HUGE noticeable difference. This cream isn't going to cure any long lasting disease or give you a big improvement on a medical condition. This is just for relief to get/ be able to do more, some reviews on here state that it doesn't work but actually that is not true because it does in fact work (very well actually) but i think and hope many of you think that isn't going to cure any disease that you may have. The cream was just used in the wrong application but this good cream but this cream is quite the same to many other creams with slight differences but also half the price. In other words, i do recommend this cream if you are having trouble with pain and need relief! (Sorry it took so long to get to that point!)

I've tried a few products and I can assure you that this works better than other products. For me, it works for a few hours at a minimum. It's too bad they don't sell this in bulk. For people suffering with facet and disc issues, apply a little on that area and surrounding muscles and you'll feel much better for many hours.
