This product is so easy to use and doesn't smell terrible. It helped ease my husband's back pain. Definitely will buy this again.

FANTASTIC! Where has this been all my life? LOL While 1.25 ounces may seem small up to other Icy Hot products, the balm easily lasts as long as the 2 ounce Icy Hot Advanced cream and almost as long as the 3 ounce Icy Hot Pro cream with the no-mess applicator. Like the Icy Hot cream roll-on that has the same 16% menthol and 11% camphor, this balm also works within 10 minutes or so, but unlike the cream, you don't have as much of a chance of putting too much on and getting a chemical burn (I cut the cream ½ and ½ with a lidocaine cream and it works well, but putting too much of the Icy Hot Advanced cream *without* cutting it with something else that doesn't burn can lead to redness and burning.) You don't have to be worried about this Icy Hot Pro balm/sphere, because you can't put too much on. It *does* work, and works as quickly as pretty much anything else on the market - actually faster than many things like menthol alone, menthol and lidocaine, and/or capsaicin products (chili pepper oil creame.) If you put another layer on before it kicks in, you still will not get burned. This allows you to use the balm as a large roller so you can massage your muscles, pushing the medicine in your skin and also loosen up the tension. Only improvement I can see is that the ring to put your fingers through could be larger - possibly with two holes to be able to use one or two fingers to hold the ball. My hands are not small, but they aren't huge either. My size 9 fingers are too tight to out three fingers in the handle, which would make the handle easier to maneuver. With only two fingers in the handle, the handle is a little loose. Maybe the handle could be larger, with one side being big enough for two fingers and the other side being only for one finger. This would allow for one finger, two fingers, or three fingers (two on one side and one on the other side at the same time) to control the gliding action. If you enlarge the handle, I suppose the whole globe would be larger - maybe it could be a 2 ounce large size (keeping this 1.25 ounce size as well.) I'd buy both! This would work well as a push-up small round deodorant stick type balm too (if Icy Hot is listening!) A long and slender glide on balm would allow for a little more reach, to hit places on my back that I cannot reach with this size. Still, after 20+ years of horrific pain with rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, constantly shifting creams, ointments, and liquid roll-ons, this is AMAZING! If I have to pack only one thing for pain (especially if it has to be something I can use in public, making the creams and ointments less easy to maneuver,) *THIS* is what I pack every time!

Many pain problems in my body and the wife's body. Convenience of application and works well.

This is a great gadget...non-greasy & convenient for traveling.... I have other Icy Hot products but am not impressed so far. I just received this, so I'm trying it out before I form an opinion.

This thing is amazing and a good strength for pain relief not sticky, maybe a litttle like hair wax and has the normal smell. Great price too!

This stuff is no joke. Destroyed my back on active duty, this stuff works... no doubt!!!

Not as effective as the Icy Hot roll ons

This thing is amazing! It's shape is perfect as a roller massage while dispensing much needed icy hot. It's not messy and it works. I pulled my quad muscle and it's been really helping me heal.
