The Benefits of Biofreeze

Biofreeze is a pain-relieving gel that can be applied to the skin to help alleviate sore and achy muscles. Biofreeze can be used for post-workout relief and also for aches associated with injury or illness, such as colds or the flu.

Significance

• Biofreeze was developed primarily as a topical gel for pain relief due to injuries. It is marketed specifically to athletes of football, tennis and rugby, but it is used by athletes from all sports. It is considered most valuable for those with joint injuries who may be suffering associated pain, particularly in the shoulder.

Types

• There are several types of Biofreeze available to the general public. The primary type is a small bottle of gel that is applied to the affected area of skin. There are also wipes that come in a pack of 24, and spray, which comes in 2, 4 and 16 oz. containers. There is also a roll-on stick of Biofreeze available for consumers.

Benefits

• Biofreeze, when used properly, allows athletes to effectively perform despite injury, illness or some other hampering to the muscles that may have otherwise caused them discomfort or poor performance. Biofreeze also brings comfort relief to those suffering pains from non sports-related injuries.
