Doctor Hoy's Natural Pain Relief Gel is a topical, water-based, analgesic which combines Arnica Montana, a powerful, natural anti-inflammatory, with Time-Release Menthol and Camphor for deep comforting relief from painful muscles, joints, stiffness, simple backache, neck ache, arthritis, bursitis, sprains, strains, and bruises.

Menthol and Camphor are listed as topical or external analgesics by the Food and Drug Administration. They help to block pain receptors. Because Menthol only lasts about 40 minutes after it is applied to the skin, a portion of our Menthol is encapsulated in a Time Release Delivery System to produce hours of relief. The Pain Relief Gel also contains Arnica, a natural anti-inflammatory, which relieves pain by decreasing inflammation.
