Biofreeze products provide relief to countless arthritis sufferers. The pain reliever’s unique, cooling formula is also comforting to sore muscles and muscle sprains; easing back, shoulder and neck pain; reducing painful ankle, knee, hip and elbow joints and helping to lessen effects of muscular strains.

Pain Gate Theory: How Biofreeze Works to Decrease Your Pain:

1. Special nerve receptors in the skin send a signal to the brain letting the brain that you’re in pain.

2. When you apply Biofreeze which has menthol (the active ingredient), this creates a cooling sensation.

3. The cooling sensation then blocks the pain signal, and perceived pain is reduced.
