Does Thera patch work for low back pain?
Thera-patch is widely sold for low back pain and treatment of arthritis.
It contains salicylate, camphor and menthol. There are several formulas of this
product. Orientals have been using the equivalent of thera-patch for centuries.
The paste is applied over the area and immediately produces a cooling effect. The
pain relief is mild. I am not sure how it works for low back pain, but you can
try it. While working in Thailand, I discovered that thera-patch (called tiger
balm) was used to treat every disorder under the sun- and in most cases, it did
jack shit.
