Excellent stuff, period! Friend of mine recommended this stuff for my foot. Put some on (decent amount), covered it with stretchy ankle brace and let it work its magic. Man, the pain was cooled and soothed away. Excellent if you use it just before bed so when you wake up, your pain is gone.

. This is hard to find, and it is the best stuff that help my legs at night so they do not jerk. This is great for all pains.

This is one of the best products out there. The scent is overwhelming if you're not used to it, but it definitely exceeds bengay, icy-hot, and any type of patch!

I have suffered with migraines for over 20 years. When I get a migraine or tension headache I reach for my tiger balm. I have my husband rub it on my shoulders, neck and upper back. I can feel immediate relief because the hot sensation takes my mind off the pain and within a 1/2 hour or so the headache is gone most of the time. I love this stuff! I keep several containers at a time all over the house, wouldn't be without it!

This balm is the best; it helps with stuffy noses and headaches. It definitely beats Icy Hot and Ben Gay.
-- Rhiannon on September 29, 2005
Tried it once, I'm now selling it. Worked wonders on my stiff neck. Heats up nice and hot and soothes the achng muscles in just a few minutes. Smells a little funky, but it gets the job done fast.

I really like your Tiger Balm fanpage because I love that stuff! I prefer the red one because of the wonderful smell. I use Tiger Balm for almost everything. If I have stiff shoulders I rub it on and a few minutes later I feel better. I also use it when I have a stuffy nose,a cough or a slight headache. It's also helpful because of the soothing smell when I'm not able to sleep.

We saw Jerry Rice on tv, advertizing Tiger Balm. I have lots of arthritis in my back, knees, elbows and hips. My wife bought some and I put it on these spots. Believe it or not, it really works. If you don't believe it, buy some and see for yourself.

My husband and I have used TB longer than I can remember, almost as long as the 37 yrs I've used Dr. Bronner's Pure Castile Soap, another excellent product. My husband recenty ran across TB in a cream version in a tube called Tiger Balm Muscle Rub. This stuff is the very best for bad backs or over large areas because it spreads so easily. We didn't like the patches at all in comparison. Check it out and get "turned on to TB all over again!!!

I'm equally as skeptical as I am curious. An old man from Colombia at my job told me to get Tiger Balm to relieve my lower back pains caused by sciatic nerve as well as 2 herniated discs in my upper vertabrae. I just bought it at my local drugstore and applied it to my right butt cheek (sciatic nerve hits hard there)...This cream quickly reversed my skepticism. After only 3 or 4 minutes I felt tremendous relief. I was using IcyHot until now. Forget about it....Tiger Balm rules. Thank you to whoever invented this stuff!

twas turned to the tiger by a vietnamese gentleman who smoked heavily - he coughed and twas always congested. he would rub it at his nose and and stick in his mouth this wipes out cough sore throat and wheezing in minutes

Just a quick comment about TB. I found out it is really effective for instant relieve of toothache or gumaches of any kind. I read something online and tried it on and although it doesn't taste very nice, I have never tried anything more effective. Rub a little bit straight on the cavity or the affected gum until you get a dentist appointment. You will get instant relieve and a very interesting breath!!!

I've utilised tiger balm and think it's brilliant.

More words of praise for Tiger Balm. I wouldn't be without it. I keep a jar at my bedside and it's always the first thing I pack when traveling. A migraine sufferer, I find it very soothing when in the throes of a headache. I recommend it to anyone who will listen.
-- Gerri [April 2005]
On a bus tour of Europe back in '84 the tour guide overheard me complain of a horrendous headache. She handed me her Tiger Balm (red-extra strength) and told me to rub some on my temples and forehead. It made my headache disappear in minutes. I also use it to clear my sinus. Many of my friends are now hooked on it for headaches also.

I was 12 years old in 1958. My mom, dad, sister and I were staying at the Shamrock Hotel. I loved visiting the Tiger Balm Gardens and riding the Star Ferry and taking a sampan out to the floating restaurant. Rubbing Tiger Balm on my chest and inhaling it I think was my very first sexual experience. I'm 55 years old now and have Tiger Balm in my medicine cabinet. And it still gets me hot..!!
-- Fred Hermon [May 2003]
i got a good cold my dad said brings me a pot of Tiger Balm he says put some on your nose and chest after a few mins my face was burning! if felt like tear gas but after a while my cold is gone i can breath through my nose this stuff is great but is sure is HOT
-- Nanda [May 2003]
Well where can I start. I use Tiger Balm for everything, and I like some of your letters stated, have given a lot of it away, and have told a great many people of it. Some have not liked it but most have. I get a lot of cold sores,and I know it is not recommended but I put it on my cold sores, it seems to nip it in the bud...or if it is already blistered dries it up, stings for a bit but the outcome is not a high price to pay for a little less pain in the long run.
-- Lynda [May 2003]
I find TB is great when I am worked up about something and cannot sleep I will rub generously on my chest and in no time I am off in lala land. Well I could go on but time does not permit.

I bought these for my Gran whilst in Malaysia a few years ago and she found they really helped with her Arthritis pains in her knees and shoulders. She now cannot live without them, so every year since I've been back to Malaysia and have bought as many as I could physically carry back with me. I would be really interested in finding a way of purchasing them via the Web, I've searched and searched but have so far had now success. I also managed to purchase some whilst on holiday in Dubai, but I've not seen them for sale in the UK.

I am a martial artist, and have trained in Shotokan Karate, Shorin Ryu and Jiu-Jitsu for over ten years. I was introduced to Tiger Balm early on by my friends in class (Tiger Balm has a HUGE following amongst martial artists). I use it for all pain and bruises associated with the martial arts. Though it says not to apply it to broken skin, I find it very helpful in instances where skin (esp. on the knuckles) is irritated. One of my friends (a beginner) spent nearly the entirety of his first few classes punching wrong and wore his knuckles bloody. I suggested Tiger Balm to him, and he has been a fan ever since.

As well as all the previously mentioned uses for Tiger Balm, I use the White for mosquito and other insect bites. What a relief it provides, better than any anti-histamine product! It itches for a few moments but than you can feel the poison being zapped away. I've also been to Tiger Gardens in Hong Kong and they are wonderful, but I missed the chance to go to the Gardens in Singapore. Never mind, next time.
-- Vicky
Tiger Balm is indeed a life saviour. I am slightly asthmatic and get loads of chest infections, laryngitis, sore throats etc. Before I discovered TB getting to sleep when every breath was painful was a nightmare. Now I slather it on my chest and throat thickly (my husband does not find this at all attractive - can't think why not!) and I recover in 2-3 days instead of the usual seven or more. I recently paid a visit to the Tiger Balm Gardens in Hong Kong to pay my respects to the TB founder, Aw Boon Song. I lit a joss stick and thanked him for the wonderful invention. I also bought some TB and some TB Poon oil (like TB but stronger and oily, obviously). All praise to your TB site. I am spreading the good news whenever I can.

Tiger Balm IS the best stuff in the world. I was turned onto the stuff ten years ago and have since then become a "tiger balm junkie." I use it for muscle aches,headaches, sinuses, inflammed joints and for warm hands and feet. I buy a lot of the stuff because I am always giving it away to the people that I've turned on to it. I hear that they have a non-staining x-tra strength,but I have never been able to locate any. Is this fact or fiction?
[I have seen liquid extra strength Tiger Balm before, and it claimed to be non-staining. Check with the manufacturer or your local "health foods" store (Whole Foods and Weaver Street Market carry it in the North Carolina/Triangle area).]

I am a Thai Boxer. I use Tiger Balm to rub out my calfs, quads, and hamstring before every workout. In doing this, I have noticed huge improvements in my ability to kick with good power for long periods of time without cramping up. I have also used Tiger Balm in response to some of those nasty calf cramps that attack me sometimes, simply rub the Tiger Balm in, and voila! Cramp is gone. I could go on and on about this stuff, I have used it in my martial arts training for over 5 years now, and I promote it every chance I get.
more to the point: i was overjoyed to find a fellow tiger balm enthusiast and thought i might share my little tale of balmy bliss...
