The cooling sensation immediately relieves the pain.

While it's not an anaesthetic, it does cause a cooling sensation on the skin that helps to mask the pain

Forty eight hours later, however, I was still feeling a cool sensation in my limbs and, strangely, was tasting it.

Biofreeze gives you a cooling sensation when you first apply it to your skin that is especially nice in the summer where I live (Phoenix, AZ)

It gave me no cooling sensation or provide pain relief

Don't get me wrong, the cooling sensation was nice but, that's all it did.

I use it on my back a lot and enjoy the pain relief and tingling sensation

It feels great, cool feeling without the intense burning sensation you get from other products and really soothes my sore back

Works great on sore and tight muscles, cooling sensation

Alas, it only seemed to give a burning sensation, unpleasant but not overbearing

I tested it on the underside of my wrist and the cooling sensation was strong that it burned and left my skin pink.

This has a similar smell to other more famous brands, but there's neither a warm nor a cold sensation ever after you put this on except for the momentary chill of a cream at room temp

It does bring relief to the sore area by adding a cold sensation, but I doubt I will buy this again

I tested it on the underside of my wrist and the cooling sensation was strong that it burned and left my skin pink.

Works great on sore and tight muscles, cooling sensation

It works and I like the cooling sensation it gives...

It has a icy hot sensation

Not sure why, but there is definitely a difference (I don't feel the the icy/hot sensation)

There's a bit of cold sensation initially, but then nothing after that

Provides a nice cooling sensation to over worked or stretched muscles

I felt no cold sensation.

The icy/hot sensation does help with my arthritis pain as well as lower back pain that I occasionally get

The cooling sensation immediately relieves the pain.

minor pain relief with a cool menthol sensation

It's such an odd sensation

It takes a little while for the cooling sensation to kick in, at least in those areas, and the smell eventually wears off

really penetrates sore muscles with a long lasting cooling sensation-contains

I used on several locations and didn’t not get any relief or cooling sensations.

Great product, good cooling sensation

nice and cool sensation really helps

All it really did was provide a cool tingling sensation for about 20-30 minutes, that's about it.

I have plantar fasciitis in one feet but do both for the cooling sensation

Make sure to wash your hands well after applying it, you don't want to inadvertently rub your eyes as it can burn.

Not as good as when I used to purchase this from my chiropracter about 7 years ago.

It does not work as much as I would like, but it doesn't have a strong smell and it doesn't freeze or burn your skin.

Others do t work well for me

For the money, this cream helps, but don/t expect any magic.
