effective, safe relief using natural substances
I have been using this product off and on for years. It does have a strong smell, but most people find it pleasant. I have never experienced a "burning sensation" from it. But you must be careful handling it, not too get it in your eyes or anywhere else that is sensitive. Despite the other reviews I have found it very effective for back pain or fibromyalgia. I was searching for the company to order some more when I came upon the bad reviews. This product is way more safe than ben gay or other creams that are not natural ingredients and can be dangerous if used too aggressively. A little bit of this product goes a long way, so the expense is relative because it should go a long way. You can apply it with a q tip or cotton ball. Getting in the shower with it is ok, but be careful applying too much extra heat from shower or heating pad. The beauty of this product is that it will either heat up or cool the affected area depending on what you need. The natural oils contained in the product are what smell, but it dissipates after 30 minutes or so. I love the product, but like anything, use it wisely.
