Not for me I have really had back pain from time to time and I figured i would buy this some months back amd give it a go, it didn't work for me, it may work for others but I actually found it to be mildly uncomfortable.

Really Relieves The balm is easy to put on! No mess! Non greasy! Relieves pain from arthritis, backache, muscle strains, sprains, and cramps! It works right away! I have been using Icy Hot because it's a brand I know and trust!
