BestLyfe Extra Strength Muscle Pain Relief Gel 150ml | 9 Essential Oils Deep Relief Anti-Inflammatory Gel with Arnica Oil, Eucalyptus & Peppermint | Joint Pain Relief Gel for Back Pain Relief Products

It's gentle but it works very well . Made a difference to my knees.

Pleasant smell. Soothing

For about 10 years now I’ve been suffering from variable levels of lower back, hip and knee pain, the legacy of too much sporting endeavour, with osteoarthritis the main culprit. The problems are also manifestly accentuated during the colder months of the year, so I’m always happy to try anything in order to make the going easier.I’ve found this muscle and joint massage gel to be reasonably effective, although it’s worth taking your time whilst massaging it in, as it also helps to get the blood flowing. It also means that the gel is then well worked in, although may take some time before you start to notice the full benefit. In this sense, it’s probably not quite as fast acting as pain-killing tablets or ibuprofen gels.It’s not a miracle cure but I’ve been applying it, particularly when I’m feeling stiff and achy. Smell-wise it has a mild menthol aroma that lingers after application but doesn’t make your eyes water or get up into the sinuses. Nevertheless, you should still wash your hands thoroughly after use.In terms of size, 150ml is probably just about acceptable for the price, although you may find any number of rub-in-remedies which work just as well. Ultimately, it’s all a matter of trial and error and finding something which helps your own particular problem.

My husband had a bad shoulder for weeks and could hardly lift his arm. He applied the cream and after one application his shoulder is so much better and can lift it much higher than he could before. Well happy good product

I usually come home from with one pain or another, be it my back or knee or elsewhere so I've had a good chance to try this over the past week. Personally I didn't feel that it did much. After applying, it added neither warmth nor coolness to the painful area. It feels like it should work as it has the same odour as that famous VapoRub, but I didn't feel it helped much at all. It simply felt like rubbing in a gel that left a smell but did little else. Never mind.If this does work for you then I think the price isn't too bad for the amount you get, and it should last a while. It is easy to apply and the tube I received has a use by date of about 2 years from date of purchase. All the ingredients look decent too, but sorry, only 3 stars from me.

This muscle and joint massage gel is so, so soothing. It is effective and has a pleasant menthol smell.

I have an old sporting injury in one of my knees, which causes pain and stiffness from time to time. Much to my delight, this gel really seems to help ease than pain, and give me back mobility. I tend to massage it in for a minute or two for added relief, and then the soothing effect kicks in after about 10 or 15 minutes.This has a minty smell, and is clean to apply. It's very pleasant to use, and although on the pricey side I'd prefer this natural product to pharmaceutical pain killers. Also, a little goes quite a long way.I think this is worth the asking price, and I rate it with five stars.

The family member who tried this against back muscle pain reports that it is nicer to use than their usual Deep Heat, has a better texture and little smell, but is perhaps slightly less effective. It is more expensive, at £11.95 for a 150l tube.
