Treatment Information
Overview
Tiger Balm white ointment is a popular ointment used to relieve pain. It is derived from a combination of ingredients that are used in traditional medicine. This ointment has a unique fragrance that is quite calming and does not leave a greasy residue on the skin.
Tiger Balm can be used by adults and children over the age of 2 years for temporary relief from minor muscular aches and pains.
Tiger Balm can also be used by adults only for the management of tension headaches. The kind of headache that one may develop when the head, neck and shoulder muscles are contracted due to fatigue, stress or strain.
