Tiger Balm Pain Relieving Ointment, Sports Ultra, 50g – Professional Size – Sports Rub Ultra Strength – Relief for Hand Arthritis – Tiger Balm Ultra

Tiger Balm Ultra is by far the best ointment I've found for knee, joint and shoulder pain. This stuff works! Very pleasant smell. Plus they support the efforts of the Wildlife Alliance to save endangered tigers.

Do you use Tiger Balm? If you are human, have muscles and tendons and the commensurate occasional aches and pains then you need Tiger Balm! Legend has it that a Chinese emperor back around 600 AD had a rather large concubine and while that worked for him...his back was often not up for the challenge. Time to call in the Chinese medicine men and order up a balm for his back to "keep him in the game" so to speak! Failure was not an option as the consequences for the medicine men would be ugly!Suffice it to say, they got it right and "voila" Tiger Balm was born. True story? I dunno but it adds a bit of mystery and intrigue to the balm, wouldn't you agree!OK, this stuff comes in a reddish formula and a white formula, I have never used the red version...but I am told it will stain your clothing...if staining is not something you are desiring then be sure you order the white, non-staining formula! I only, exclusively use the white non-staining balm!Now, I have used a lot of stuff with names like Icy Hot, Ben Gay, Fire and Ice...you name it and they all do what they purport to do...burn you! God forbid you rub your eyes or elsewhere....enter the "fire dragon", if ya know what I mean?I am an avid tennis player, addict is probably a more appropriate term. I play everyday for at least 2 to 3 hours, weather and other things considered and I have all the aches and pains to prove it!But....I also have Tiger Balm everyday! After a hot shower to open up the pores, I apply just a little buttering of this stuff to my lower back, both knees, a bad ankle and my right shoulder. There is an immediate warming action though no burn and this stuff must contain an analgesic because it takes the edge off of any minor aches and pains immediately and keeps on working through my daily tennis regimine!I trully love this stuff, have used it for years and years now and wouldn't even think of heading to the courts before applying it to my known weak areas as well as to any new areas that may have shown up as well!It's got a nice fragrance to it....not as overwhelming as some of the other muscle balms I have used in the past and even that slight "rub" fragrance seems to dissipate before I get out of the house to play!I have a 87 year old neighbor, in great shape for his years but he has some knee issues and once I gave him a dab of mine in an older empty tin....he now uses it faithfully and says it really helps him to get around better then without it!This 50 gram tin is good for at least 6 months of applying everyday. It has the consistency of waxy shoe polish and you just need to glide your fingers across the top and then apply to the area you want to treat! There are knock offs out there with "tiger" in the name but I have tried them and they are useless.Make sure you get the real deal...."Tiger Balm", despite the knock off name and packaging and cheaper price they are pretenders to be sure and you will have wasted your money on them.I reccommend this stuff to all my friends, tennis playing or not and I have yet to get any negative feedback!Yep....the Chinese Emperor got himself back into the game and me and hopefully you as well!

Relieves muscle pain and itch from bug bites. Also works well as a mosquito repellent.

Tiger Balm really helps ease my muscle aches and tension. It’s strong but not overpowering, and works fast. A must-have in my first aid kit!

In comparison to competitors, Tiger Balm has worked better for me than anything else I have tried for muscle aches. Warning: do not apply to face or other areas of sensitive skin! I thought it smart to put a dab on my cheeks to clear my sinuses, but I ended up with red marks and irritation. Never an issue when used on my neck, back, or knees. Strong smell but I don't mind it. Helps with muscle soreness. I use at least 3 times a week.

The product it self is amazing. If your muscles and tissues are sore or strained this product does wonders. It takes serval minutes but then you can really feel the ingredients work into your muscles. It feels invigorating. if your issues are deeper like joints and ligaments or bone then I doubt this will help or work for you. I have a torn meniscus and to help alleviate some discomfort and pain I tired this product but didn’t get much relief but again overall soreness or over exercise tissues it’s great!***Shipping improvements***The product needs to be sealed better. Or have some kind of cooling pack for shipping. I live in Las Vegas and the heat makes the product leak and spill out of the tin. No fault of anyone or shipper just needs to be a thought for future customers in high heat areas the product may leak out of packaging. Mine did.

One of the better pain relieving balms out there. I use it for my shoulder which has been aching for months. After using Tiger Balm, the pain goes away almost immediately. Sometimes the cap is tighten too hard, makes it very difficult to remove the cap.

Smell like cinnamon once on lovely scent better than years gone by!
