I've used both and they both work great. I can't really tell the difference between them.

Hi, I have been using one for years.No gel pack.It has an inner heat pack that pulls mpisture from the sir. It stay dry,but when you tun it on and it heats up it allows moist heat to penetrate into your muscles. I have sever back issues.Have had several surgeries, fractures and a birth defect .I have tried all kinds! This is the best. Get the one with the timer.I have tried to one that you hold down and the lever type breaks. The One with buttons that do the auto timer are great!

I am currently sitting here with my brand new ice pack wrapped around my knee and about 12" from my nose (knee is elevated to heart height in front of me). There is a very slight smell but given how I can wrap it on the diagonal around my knee to the area that's swollen the worst, that tiny bit is something I can definitely live with. It is -nowhere near- how much a pain-relieving salve would smell (such as arnica or bengay) and it's completely gone while the ice pack is freshly cold. If you noticed it much you could probably use it as an indicator of when to freeze it again! :D

It starts very cold from the freezer, and at 30 minutes it is still cold. My Physical Trainer says not to keep it on any longer than that, or it could cause an ice burn to your skin. You should wait at least two hours before using it again on the same area. It is not filled with gel, but I believe water, which when frozen lasts longer, and is colder.

No it is not. I bought it thinking it was the same or close to it. It is not as good as Biofreeze, but it works better for me than Ben Gay or something similar to that. The Fast freeze works alright for me, I have RA so i have tried about everything. But if you like Biofreeze this is not as strong and it doesn't seem to last as long as biofreeze. Hope this helps.

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

I think you misunderstood me. From reviews I read the gel is supposed to keep it from shocking your hand while you are holding it but still shock the part of the body that you're using it on. Does it shock your hand while you are holding it and using it on your body? I want to use it for neck pain.

I can only say that when I first used Biofreeze in small packets on my shoulder it worked great. I have used it on my back and knees and didn't quite get the same result. An acquaintance of mine uses it all of the time and thinks it wonderful. I don't know that the inactive ingredients are but I would try the crème if I were you.

The "original" has a much longer lasting scent and will stain (although not permanently) any clothing that comes into contact with affected area of body. This version of biofreeze does not stain and minimal scent for minimal period of time.

They have changed the formulation of Oral Balance. They have taken out the enzymes and xylitol and it doesn't work at all. It is thinner and burns the back of your mouth and hardly lasts 30 minutes!!! I called 1-800-922-5856 to complain and they will give me a refund for 2 tubes of Oral Balance and one tube of Biotene tooth paste(also without enzymes). I have been using this product for 10 years and it has really helped me at night (I have Sjogrens'). I managed to find some of the original OB at a small pharmacy - the originals will say on the front "Long lasting Symptom Relief" and the new formulation says "New improved pH Balance". What a joke!

Biofreeze does not contain aspirin. It contains menthol and ilex for pain relief

I like the gel better. It seems to absorb faster and leave no residue. Love it.

The B-Cure laser works well on all pain, but I guess it is up to you.....you need to try it out and see, but I have no complains with the B-Cure on anything

I have the pain reliever. Took a look at the pictures and don't see any difference between those two units. The unit works well for lower back pain. I also have an incline table , which by the way will decompress the whole spine, and find that I actually use the latter more than the nubax unit. However, if you don't have space the nubax unit takes less room. I do find the nubax unit difficult to get our of - the incline table is a bit scary until you get use to it. The trick is to not incline too much too fast. My chiropractor recommends the incline table and told me to start at a 5% incline and gradually increase it. Hope this helps I have the pain reliever.

Not sure but assume they are the same. Bio freeze does help, but it does smell pretty strong.

I actually haven't used Fast Freeze. I've only bought BioFreeze, but I can say that BioFreeze works really well. Because I wasn't familiar with Fast Freeze, I looked up a comparison on Google, and it contains the same ingredients as BioFreeze, plus vitamin E. It gets really good reviews, and because it's significantly cheaper than BioFreeze, I intend to give it a try soon. I go through a LOT of BioFreeze. I want to thank you for bringing this product to my attention. Good luck. Jim
