Biofreeze Gel is a topical analgesic used for the relief of minor aches and pains. The active ingredient in Biofreeze gel, menthol, is known as a counterirritant as it causes the skin to feel cool and then warm. Biofreeze gels are used to provide relief from itching and skin irritation caused by sunburn, insect bites, or minor scrapes.

Biofreeze Gel is easy to apply and has been trusted by physical therapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, and sports medicine practitioners to help treat a variety of ailments. It is an effective pain reliever that works by temporarily numbing sore muscles and joints, reducing inflammation, and aiding in the healing process.
