[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted to try these on my shoulder and back as I use a cream regularly.. I like that I can cut these down a bit for two areas, they stay on very well, and initially add a nice cooling menthol relief to pain. They do quickly dissipate and I noticed less and less cooling effect after about 15 minutes. Creams usually get me at least double that. The trade off is, if they are effective after that, they can stay in place while I go about my daily chores, and don't leave any residue on clothing. I'll keep trying as I do really like the patch method, may just need to swap out more often.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these patches! They are easy to apply, stick well, and last for hours. My favorite thing is that they are completely dry to the touch so I am able wear them underneath my clothes, without making a mess.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband gets lower back pain often after working in the garage or outside, so he usually has to keep applying creams often. He right away tried these patches and it worked great because he could leave it and forget it! He said they tingled right away and seemed to work well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIOFREEZE large pain patches are the perfect size for leg or arm pain or a concentrated area of your back. The size is easy enough to put on by yourself , although I would ask for help on your back because it is very sticky and you want to get it right. The patch is very sticky and will stick to itself if not careful putting it on. It does come off easily when done without problem or any pain like tearing off a bandage. I put it on my shoulder . It fit nicely and did not crunch up or pull off. The menthol scent does fade away. There is no burning or heat sensation since it is a cool patch. It is a little cold going on but that goes away. I had it on for the day and my pain did subside. In conclusion if you are looking for pain relief and don't want to be bothered with creams or gels I highly recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these Biofreeze - 5 Large Pain Relief Patches, from Tryit Sampling. I received them as a free sample, and I love them. They give me pain relief for 8 hours, this is excellent for my arthritis pain.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These bad boys are for my back after long days constantly bending over. One usually does the trick but when I’m just in need of some real self care, I’ll throw on two just to treat myself. I have to hide them from the wife so she doesn’t take my new found treasure.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was quite impressed with these patches. I am not sure what I was expecting, but these exceeded it. They are soft, stretchable, and move with your body. My husband even needed to use it on his shoulder. He is very active and moves around a lot. The patch stayed in place and stayed on for the entire day and still had medicine by the end of the day. The cooling sensation stayed with him all day. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Because I am a 3 day a week jogger, I sometimes get achy calf muscles after my runs. These Biofreeze patches have been so handy for addressing that issue. The cooling patches are like wearing a constant ice pack, only much more convenient and way less bulky. The feeling of these long lasting menthol pads is oh so soothing and amazing. Because these are large pads, they completely and easily cover the entire calf muscle. The stretchy material is also ideal for movement so it does not peel away. This same material however is not so great when trying to unfold and apply to the skin. They can be a little unwieldy, but wow once you do get them fully opened and applied, they go to work instantly. First it is a quick cold shock to the skin and then it slowly eases to a steady cooling and takes the pain away with it. So nice that it works up to 8 hours. I hardly even know it's there.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These patches are perfect to cover large area pain such back or side. I have a lot of pain on my side hip area. I have pain throughout the day when I move and have a uncomfortable pain on my side at night. This side pain keeps me up tossing and turning trying to relieve pain. When I cover the area with a pain relief patch, my pain is relieved and I am able to sleep more sound without all the turning to get comfortable.
