This product is great for sore muscles or joint related problems. I would highly recommend Magne Sport Balm.I have been a competitive athlete for years and this is a game changer for aches and pains, and I rub a little on my chest every night for overall wellness. I also use it on lower back for facet joint arthritis pain. Mg12 - The Power of Magnesium has changed the game in terms of recovery, aches and pains, and overall wellness! Excellent product!
