"This is the best product for sore muscles that need a little TLC. Forget IcyHot, Tiger Balm works miracles! I highly recommend it.

It has a menthol scent, which I happen to like, but it doesn't appeal to everyone.

"My husband suffers from a back injury and this product is the only thing that helps him get thru the night. I am sad it was discontinued at my local warehouse store where the price was more reasonable for two but I am thrilled to have found this site because we literally ran out of the ointment when our order arrived. This product works better than any of the other pain relievers and trust me we tried them all. Tiger Balm patches work great too!"

"The product itself is excellent, but the packaging is terrible. I was able to open only one of the four tins I bought. There is nothing to grip, turn, or pry against to get the tins open. I even drilled a hole in the lid to relieve any vacuum, but it didn't help."

"As a massage therapist, I started adding a small ammount of Tiger Balm into the massage of professional athletes long ago. Just recently I had a few clients who just didn't get the result I was looking for, so I added Tiger Balm to their massage. Now practically all of my clients are hooked and they absolutely love the smell!!"

"I was very disappointed with this product. I had used the extra-strength red for years and expected the "ultra" to out perform it. The "ultra" is colorless, so it will not stain - but wearing a black karate uniform makes that a non-issue. I have a tin of extra-strength red that I purchased in 1998 that I continue to use - its way hotter. I think the performance may be related to the amount of cajeput or cassia oil. If you try this product - try a SMALL size - and compare that to the RED first! I felt I wasted my money on this purchase."
