Sorry to hear. Hope you get to feeling better. Had knots in my back a few weeks ago that wouldn’t go away for anything other than time. Had a rough couple weeks, but makes me appreciate not having it.

Biofreeze used to be SO much better before they went and changed the formula!
That was back around 2007-2009 iirc. It was definitely harder to find, but worked much better.

I'm a trained massage therapist (not practicing) so I'm very familiar. It was my favorite type of body work to do back when I was practicing.
It works great for knots.
Anyone who hasn't tried it should definitely give it a shot

So that's probably how you know about Biofreeze? I learned about the stuff when going to physical therapy back in 2005 when I injured my back at work. Used to have to get it from a PT clinic or Chiropractor. Then shortly after I moved back to CO, the formula changed, and it started showing up in some stores and readily online. After I bought my first new bottle, I was shocked how poorly it worked, and noticed the formula change compared to the old bottle (which we dug out of the trash).

Correct.
If you want to amp up its effects, put it on thick. Then get a hot wet towel, as hot as you can stand, and wrap or cover the biofreezed area with it. Works well

#notnathan but I’m pretty sure CPK allows use of the D3V HT by Peters for other companies. Maybe there’s a royalty, IDK. Also pretty sure they don’t share the proprietary “recipe”, just allow it’s use.
Will definitely have to try that! Thanks!
