Herbal Balm Muscle Rubs are known for their ability to induce a range of sensations, from tingling and numbing to either a cool or warm feeling or sometimes a combination of both. These effects from active ingredients such as menthol, camphor,  borneol, or, crocodile oil which provide cooling sensations, and capsaicin, which adds warmth. These ingredients play a key role in temporarily diminishing pain sensations, which might encourage users to prematurely resume activities that could potentially worsen their condition. It is recommended to allow the muscle rub to completely wear off before undertaking any activity that could strain or further injure the area.
