               The strength of the East

Tiger Balm started its journey to the West more than 100 years ago, when the  imperial court herbalist Aw Chu Kin left China to set up his humble medicine shop in the city of Rangoon in Burma (Myanmar).

He took with him the formula of a unique herbal ointment, made to relieve and soothe aches and pains.

To continue the legacy he created, his sons - Aw Boon Haw and Aw Boon Par - took the secrets of Tiger Balm to Singapore in the 1920s.

Ever since then, Tiger Balm has grown to become one of the world's leading traditional remedies. Its unique formulation contains camphor, menthol, cajuput oil and clove oil. It contains no animal products and is not tested on animals.

• Red Tiger Balm is a warm, comforting remedy that is most effective for relieving muscular aches and pains. But it is also versatile enough to relieve insect bites, itchiness, and headaches. Just rub the ointment onto your skin, and its pain relieving properties will work quickly to reduce aches, swelling, and other discomfort. As the makers say, it "works wherever it hurts."
  
  

• White Tiger Balm is a slightly different formulation, designed for fast & effective relief from headaches, stuffy nose, insect bites, general aches & pains, itchiness and (apparently) flatulence!
  
  

• Tiger Oil is an easily applied massage oil, for the rapid relief of aches and pains in the muscles and joints, associated with backache, arthritis, strains, sprains and bruises.
