Product Information
What is the composition of Tiger Balm?
Tiger Balm is composed of the following elements:
- Camphor (25%) – Provides a warming effect ( more info )
- Menthol (8 to 10%) – Refreshes the skin
- Essential oil of mint or eucalyptus (6 to 14%)
- Cajuput oil (7%) – Cooling effect ( source )
- Chinese cinnamon essential oil (5%) – Gives the balm its red color
- Clove essential oil (1.5 to 5%) – Warms upon application
This mixture varies depending on the variant: red or white tiger balm.
How to choose your Tiger Balm?
Tiger Balm is used in many Asian countries and is gaining popularity in the West for its many benefits. There are two main versions:
Red Balm: Provides a warming sensation thanks to camphor, ideal for relieving muscle pain, tendonitis, rheumatism, back pain, or inflammation.
White balm: Used for headaches, coughs, colds, sinusitis, and insect bites (especially mosquitoes).
Choose the variant according to your specific needs.
How to use Tiger Balm?
Tiger Balm is intended for external use:
- For colds: Apply to the chest or under the nostrils (without touching the lips).
- For headaches: Apply to temples or forehead.
- For insect bites: Apply directly to the bitten area.
- For muscle pain: Apply generously to the painful area.
Caution: Wash your hands thoroughly after use and avoid contact with eyes or mucous membranes.
How to use Tiger Balm Red?
Take a small amount of balm, apply to the painful area, and rub in quickly to activate the heating effect. You will feel an alternation of heat (camphor) and coolness (menthol). Wash your hands after use and avoid eyes or mucous membranes.
How to use White Tiger Balm?
For an insect bite, apply topically for immediate relief. For a cold, apply to the chest or under the nostrils (without touching the lips or mouth).
What are the indications and contraindications for Tiger Balm?
Indications: Tiger Balm works against muscle pain, back pain, arthritis, tendon inflammation, and headaches.
Contraindications: Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or children under 7 years old. Avoid application to mucous membranes and eyes. A 1990 study indicates a risk of mild skin irritation in 0.5 to 1.5% of cases.
Is Tiger Balm dangerous?
Tiger Balm is generally safe, but it can pose a risk to those who cannot tolerate essential oils. Tests show few skin reactions. Be sure to buy authentic balm, as some low-quality products may contain opium or excessive camphor.
