Can anyone tell me whether this version of Biofreeze includes arnica, or just ilex? I'm looking for the version with arnica.

I like the way biofreeze eases the discomfort and it is not greasy - not sure what the difference between biofreeze and perform is.

No...30C is the potency. Arnica comes is a variety of potencies. 30C is the most common in home use potency. 200C is a high potency; 12C or 6C are lower. There are also "x" potencies -- 1X, 2X which are weaker than the "C" potencies. 80 is the number of pellets.

The Heel Company was purchased by MediNatura and their packaging has changed. Please make sure you double check the old zeel bottle and new zeel bottle, the new company may have made changes to the ingredients. I purchase the Traumeel, which has now been renamed to T-Relief Arnica +12 and there were two new ingredients added. I use both the Zeel and Traumeel by MediNatura (formerly Heel) for my dog. So far, I have seen no change in the product quality, which is a good thing. The new ingredients have not affected my dog. I contacted the company directly and went through everything one by one on the phone with them.

Hi Kelley. Did you end up buying this? I too want to get it for my allergy vials. If you bought this, did it work? Did it end up freezing your allergy vials? Did the allergy vials fit? Thanks!

I use Pernox periodically. I also use a facial product from Neutrogena. I use a facial massager in conjunction with both products to exfoliate my skin.

This is what I found in looking for the answer to your question. Biofreeze uses an herb called Ilex. This herb is extracted from a holly plant in South America and then shipped to Pennsylvania to be made into Biofreeze. Ilex acts as an instant cold application and also helps the gel sink deeper through the skin's layers.http://www.ehow.com/how-does_4679702_biofreeze-work.html

Active ingredients is natural methol-cold method with ILEX which crates a skin barrier. It works for me and I've use it for years-my PT recommended it to me. Amazon, I have found, has it for less. Inactive ingredients: glycerine, isotope alcohol, propylene glycol, silicon dioxide, and purified water. I hope this was helpful.

The active ingredients list on the roll-on bottle says it contains: herbal extract (ilex paraguariensis) I hope the spelling of that last word is correct - the print is so small I had difficulty making out the letters. If you've never used Biofreeze it is AMAZING stuff! Whether it's stiff muscles, arthritis and just plain old age aches and pains it works wonderfully! Calms nerves and muscle spasms AND restless legs and allows you to rest comfortably. I hope this has been helpful to you. Good Luck!

I've used Biofreeze with the applicator & it works just fine. Actually, it holds anything that won't run off such as water.

I have no idea what the inactive ingredients are, all I know is that I have had positive results when using Biofreeze to alleviate muscle aches.

I don't know. I have used both. However, I would go to Dr. Oz's website as he always promotes arnica. See if he has the answer. Good luck, and let me know if there is a difference.

lYes, it's 4 percent. I found it first at my Kaiser doctor's chiropractor. It's sooo good. Don't know what Arnica even is?
