This is the very first product formulated by J. R. Watkins in the year 1868 and still one of our best selling health aids! It provides great relived form the discomfort of minor muscle pain, soreness, stiffness and backaches. Just pat on for soothing relief.

  • Time Tested: Since 1868!
  • Liquid form: just pat onto skin; liniment is absorbed deeply for fast relieve
  • Deep penetrating formula: reduces muscular discomfort due to overexertion, fatigue and strains; provides temporary relief for minor aches and pains associated with simple backache, arthritis, strains, bruises, sprains, and stiffness.
Active Ingredient
Camphor 3.5% w/w: Occurs in nature in the camphor tree, an Asian evergreen related to cinnamon. When applied to the skin, camphor produces a mild local anesthetic action (depresses some nerve endings and stimulates others). It also acts as an antipruritic, which means relieves itching.

Also Contains
Capsicum (red pepper): A raw material that produces a warming effect on the skin; at higher levels, a burning sensation. The burning could become unpleasant if rubbed vigorously; therefore, we recommend that this product be patted on rather than rubbed in.
