To give some other commentary on how cryogel works that cannot be confused for Advertisement (since I don't workfor the Company at-all and have yet to affiliate with Mike), all you have to do is look at the ingredient list:
Aloe - THE wonder-plant. I don't think there's anything it can't do. From increasing skin consistency to repairing burns and speeding the healing of wounds, to aiding in proper digestion when ingested.
Arnica - We sell this stuff at my store to people going into and coming out of surgery because it's ability to repair damaged tissue and heal bruising is uncanny.
MSM - One of the best-known anti-inflammatory agents that can be found in pretty much any and every reputable joint compound.
Menthol - the cooling effect of it dulls the ache.
Cryogel is good stuff, everyone I've given samples of it to sent to me by Mike likes it.
