On the off chance that someone reading this doesn't know about the wonders of Tiger Balm, here's your nudge to try it. 

Recently I suffered a lower back injury (my first, and hopefully my last) that left me in pretty severe pain. 

I tried a bunch of things to ease the pain while the injury healed, but Tiger Balm was the only thing that really helped. 

After using it every day for about a week plus returning to my yoga and Pilates routine, I'm pain-free once again. 💜

Oh, back pain is horrible. I'm glad it helped you.

I had never experienced pain like that in my lower back before. At one point I could barely move at all without debilitating pain, and even thought I might have to postpone my flight back to Portland. 

But Tiger Balm saved the day. Wouldn't have been able to fly without it.

The experience gave me a lot more sympathy for those who suffer with chronic back pain.
