   The Vasoline-like paste of Tiger Balm is less messy to use than many other mentholated lotions.

   Fairly long-lasting.

   The scent isn’t as strong as that of many other mentholated rubs.

   The metal tin is convenient to carry and stays tightly closed when not in use.

   All in all, this is my favorite mentolated rub for muscle soreness.

   Used it right away and felt relief. Used to buy the tiny little jar. Now that I can get this large size I will order again

   I’ve used this for 40 years. It smells but really works. Rub only a little on the sore muscles cover it in warm clothes and in a few hours you are better. If you have never tried it you might think it’s burning you but it’s working

   Im suffering for the rest of my life from a herniated disc in my upper cervical region & lower spine, from getting hit from the back in a car accident in Jan of 2021😑😥

   And Although i do physical therapy, eat anti inflammatory foods, I refuse to consume pain meds, like muscle relaxers or even otc
   ibuprofen.
   And although I am m very fit, beyond fit, extremely petite & small framed for a relatively young lady, The car accident & my now permanent injury has me moving around like an unfit woman in her Mid 50’s🥹 Despite me exercising & stretching. If I lift anything over 15 pounds for more than 5-10 min, or if i turn the wrong way I tend to dislocate my disc in my cervical area Which ends up pinching my nerve endings and causing inflammation in my joints, muscles & tendons😭
   It literally paralyses me and i cant move.

   The relief if me hanging upside down on the side if my bed for 20 mins & Then massaging my neck, shoulders & upper back region with a little device i bought off of here & then
   applying this TIGER balm Ultra strength ointment!!!!

   It smells Horrible, strong & medicinal (eeek) lol
   And i feel the HEAT within 5 minutes of application,( kinda burns a little too) But the heat activation of this ointment, literally appears to ‘melt’ all of the inflammation & pain away!!!! Its like MAGIC!

   OUT of all the creams & ointment I’ve used NOTHING tops this as far as instant pain relief, seemingly without long term side effects.

   The only downside is the smell that sticks in your clothes and younger people like me will turn our romantic partners and even our friends off, because we smell like an elderly person wearing this so its best to do at night, when not coupled up with a romantic partner after a good shower a lil pt & massage.

   But the benefits of pain relief outweigh the smell & slight burn, so I’m still rating it 5 out of 5 stars!

   I have used Tiger Balm off and on for years. In my 20s and 30s, for sore muscles after exercising/running. Now in my late 40s, I use it when my frozen shoulder (thanks a lot perimenopause) acts up. It’s not the most potent muscle rub I’ve ever used, but the odor isn’t harsh and it gets the job done.

   This works well. Better than most pain creams/ointments.

   Tiger Balm has become one of my go-to solutions for muscle tension and soreness. It works fast and gives that soothing, warming sensation that really helps ease discomfor,especially after long days or when I’ve been on my feet a lot. A little goes a long way, and I love that it’s not greasy. It’s one of those things I always keep nearby, just in case something flares up.

   I had Severe nerve issues under my left shoulder blade. I mean Terrible pain! I was using heat pads, taking Aleve and felt no relief; could hardly sleep or do anything, but lay almost complete still. I did started doing some,research cause I desperately needed some relief and came across an online article recommending Tiger Balm. I did not have high hopes, but purchased this, along with several other numbing creams. Well, Tiger Balm blows all of the other ones away! No exaggeration. It has extreme, but tolerable, heat and cold contrasts, but works Super well. I know I have purchased at least 25+ tins so far and keep them on hand and even in my travel suitcase to help ensure I always have some on-hand. My Husband had essentially the same condition, but his was not as severe and also loves Tiger Balm. It has a Very Strong hot cinnamon (like red hots or cinnamon candy balls); so it may not go over well in an office environment. The 2nd place contender that we also use that hardly has any smell is called Blu-Emu. That works well to and allows you to get relief at work and in more public places without smelling like a medicine cabinet. It has also helped with tennis elbow and sore muscles after working out or doing laborious tasks. It may “burn” your nose hairs (and possibly put some hairs on your chest…;-) but this pain balm is quite effective from our experience! TIP…Curcumin really helps with the healing to. Just take it easy while given it time; so avoid over exerting yourself which can reinjure the nerve sheath. HIGHLY recommended! Tip #2: If you need to apply it to your back or have difficulty reaching your legs, feet, etc, purchase a long handle applicator. It has worked well for creams, ointments balms and lotions. The one I love is foldable, very easy to use and the product number is B081JL9P8R.

    My husband swears by this balm. He has back issues and finds relief with this rub, moreso than with bio freeze or pain patches. It also smells amazing, I love when he is wearing it! You just have to make sure you wash your hands well after you apply.
