Biofreeze Professional Pain Relieving Roll-On Features
- Proven to Work: Contrary to popular belief, ice doesn't reduce swelling, but it does reduce pain. Biofreeze induces the exact same response as ice, only faster. The user is also less likely to experience stiffness, skin irritation, temporary pain and numbness, and the inactivity required during application as with ice
- Powered by Menthol: Menthol stimulates cold receptors that create a cooling sensation on and under the skin, helping to relieve pain. Our formula has optimized the ideal menthol concentration
- Backed by Science: Biofreeze's fast-acting, the menthol-based formula provides powerful pain relief when directly applied to the skin. In fact, clinical studies have shown that those who use Biofreeze decrease their pain twice as much as those who don't
- Safer Pain Relief: Applying Biofreeze directly to the skin can bring targeted and effective pain relief without the risks that come with an oral pill
How does Biofreeze work?
- Biofreeze topical analgesic contains the active ingredient, menthol, which is considered a counter-irritant. The exact mechanism of menthol's pain relief is not clear.
- Still, menthol is believed to stimulate skin temperature receptors that are associated with an analgesic (pain-relieving) effect.
- Previous researchers have shown that Biofreeze reduces blood flow and pain, similar to ice.
- The researchers at Memorial University induced DOMS in the biceps of 16 healthy subjects with eccentric exercise.
- Two days later, the subjects randomly received either Biofreeze topical analgesic or an ice pack to the affected muscle; their pain and strength levels were measured 20 minutes after application.
- The researchers found that Biofreeze reduced DOMS significantly more than ice by 63%.
- In addition, Biofreeze allowed greater evoked (tetanic) muscle contractions in the sore muscle compared to ice.
- The researchers concluded that Biofreeze is more effective than ice for decreasing DOMS-induced symptoms of pain and increasing evoked tetanic force.
- Furthermore, they stated the greatest tetanic forces with the menthol analgesic may suggest that more intense or aggressive muscle stimulation therapy during rehabilitation might be possible with such a therapeutic agent. More research is needed on patient populations receiving electrical muscle stimulation.
