Nerve cells regulate our perception of pain by carrying information from receptors found in the skin and throughout the body, to the spinal cord, before being sent to the brain for processing. The brain then interprets thesesignals and the body reacts to this stimuli in the form of pain. Biofreeze produces a cold sensation that can be used to override pain signals through what is described as \u201cGate Control Theory\u201d. This theory suggests that topical pain relief products block pain signals from passing these \u2018gates\u2019 leading to the brain. The user instead feels a cooling sensation.<\/p>\n
