    Introduction


    Battle Balm is the pain reliever with knockout power. Our all natural and organic topical analgesic punches pain square in the face. Lucky for you, Battle Balm penetrates deep to work amazingly fast soon after you apply it to soothe your aches and pains.

    However, we know a few tricks for you to really unlock the power of Battle Balm. We will give you a list of ways  it's essential to explore techniques that can enhance the power of these creams.

    6 Ways to Boost the Pain Punching Power of Battle Balm

    Let's dive into some proven strategies that will help you get the most out of your Battle Balm (or any other pain relief cream) to work harder, provide longer lasting relief and maximize the bang for your buck!

    1. Apply on clean, dry skin.

      For optimal absorption and effectiveness, apply the topical cream on clean, dry skin. You can wash the area with mild soap and water, then pat it dry gently before application. Removing any dirt, oils, or residue from the skin's surface helps the active ingredients penetrate deeper and work more effectively. Or, you can scrub your skin clean in the shower. Dry your skin afterwards, and wait 15 to 30 minutes before grabbing your Battle Balm!
    2. Cool down the area.

      Some people like to use a cold pack, or ice pack for their pain and inflammation. In short spurts, we think cold packs can be invigorating and great for creating a circulatory pump at your injury site or painful joint. Battle Balm works with ice packs to stimulate the cold receptors in the skin and provide cooling relief! Be aware not to damage skin by leaving cold packs on the skin for too long!
    3. Warm up the area.

      A warm compress or heating pad can really help to dilate blood vessels, significantly increasing blood flow to the target area. Improved circulation can enhance the delivery of the cream's active components to the affected tissues, leading to more substantial pain relief. Just be careful when applying heat, as the skin can get sensitive and burn, if you're not paying attention!
    4. Massage the cream in.

      If you really want to take things to the next level, massage Battle Balm into the affected area. Take the time to massage it thoroughly into the skin using circular motions. Massaging the cream helps it penetrate deeper into the tissues, maximizing its efficacy. Additionally, the act of massaging itself can offer additional pain relief by reducing muscle tension and promoting relaxation. You can have your massage therapist even use Battle Balm during your massage session to really amplify the analgesic effect!
    5. Wrap it up!

      Supporting an injured limb or muscle with an elastic bandage or neoprene wrap is a great way to help you heal faster. The compression pushes swelling away from the painful injury, but also provides support for the muscles to push against. Applying Battle Balm under the wrap will work wonders for your pulled muscles or strained ligaments. And the wrap will also warm the area to help the Battle Balm penetrate more deeply! It's a win-win!
    6. Consider combination therapy.

      In many cases, combining topical pain relief creams with other pain management techniques can lead to even better results. For example, using Battle Balm alongside oral pain medication, physical therapy, yoga, etc., can create a synergistic effect, amplifying the overall pain relief experience. However, always consult your healthcare professional before incorporating combination therapies to ensure their safety and compatibility with each other.

    Conclusion


    Battle Balm can be a powerful tool in managing localized discomfort and improving your overall well being. By implementing the strategies mentioned above, you can significantly boost the cream's effectiveness.

    It's essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions and recommended dosage when using topical pain relief creams. Using excessive amounts of the cream or using it more frequently than advised may not lead to better results and could potentially cause adverse effects.

    Remember to maintain open communication with your healthcare professional and make appropriate lifestyle adjustments to complement your pain management routine. With these steps, you'll be well on your way to experiencing the full potential of Battle Balm and getting back to your sport or activity sooner than you thought!
