BioFreeze Cold Pain Relieving Gel is clinically-recommended among the top chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists, and podiatrists as a fast-acting topical pain reliever. Available with gel-roll-on and spray applicators, it contains an ILEX base and an herbal extract for quick-onset, long-lasting, pain relief. Generally preferred over ice for cold therapy - or "cryotherapy" - as a more comfortable and effective solution for reducing aches and pains, swelling, and nerve activity.
BioFreeze, like other topical analgesics, is developed on the concept of Gate Control Theory - where special pain receptors in the nerve endings throughout the body send a pain signal to the brain via the spinal cord, resulting in the perception of pain. With the application of the analgesic to a painful area of the body, studies show that the subsequent cooling sensation helps to prevent the pain signal from traveling to the brain, allowing you to be temporarily free of pain.
