Another key ingredient in Thentix Pain Formula is Methyl Salicylate or Wintergreen.
Methyl Salicylate is commonly used for relief of pains and aches in muscles, sprains and joint pain such as rheumatism and arthritis. It can be used for temporary relief of minor back pain, strains as well as the above.
Methyl Salicylate is a topical analgesic.
(Analgesic [definition]: A medicine’s ability to relieve pain, or a drug that alleviates pain; the term comes from the Greek word algos , which means pain.)
Methyl Salicylate has an odor or wintergreen as it is a natural product of the wintergreen plant. (Duh!)
Wintergreen:[definition]:
1. A low-growing, creeping evergreen plant of North America, having solitary nodding white flowers, aromatic leaves, and spicy edible scarlet berries. Also called checkerberry, teaberry.
2. An oil or a flavoring obtained from this plant.
