How does it work?
- Biofreeze works through a counter irritant mechanism

Our patients like to take a bottle of the Roll- On Gel home to help them manage pain and discomfort as well as in between Massage or Chiropractic treatments to help speed up the body’s natural healing process. The benefit of a roll on is that it provides hands free application and can be used to massage painful muscles and stimulate trigger points in the affected area. Come into Backs in Action today to find out if Biofreeze is right for you!
