The fragrance combines camphor, menthol, and other warming aromatics in a water-soluble crystal that you sprinkle into the spa before a soak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Tiger Balm:\u003c\/strong\u003e The original Tiger Balm formula has been used for over a century to ease muscle aches, joint pain, and tension headaches. The same warming aromatic compounds in the spa-crystal version create a recognizable warming sensation on the skin during a soak — ideal after a hard workout, a long day on your feet, or any time stiffness is the reason you headed for the hot tub in the first place. Pairs naturally with the post-exercise recovery use case for a hot tub.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use it:\u003c\/strong\u003e Add 1-2 capfuls of crystals to the spa water with the jets running. The crystals dissolve within a minute. Climb in and soak — ideally with the jets aimed at the muscle groups that need attention. The fragrance lasts the duration of one normal soak (20-40 minutes).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this affect my water chemistry?\u003c\/strong\u003e No — PharmaSpa crystals are water-soluble, alcohol-free, and pH-neutral. They don't affect chlorine, bromine, alkalinity, or filter performance. Safe for all sanitizer systems including salt water (Onzen and Spa Boy).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe warming sensation is real but mild — don't expect topical-Tiger-Balm intensity from a spa-crystal version\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTry other PharmaSpa fragrances for different moods: \u003ca href=\"\/products\/spazazz-lavendula\"\u003eLavendula\u003c\/a\u003e for sleep, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/spazazz-eucalyptus\"\u003eEucalyptus\u003c\/a\u003e for respiratory benefits, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/spazazz-articul-r\"\u003eArticul-R\u003c\/a\u003e for joint stiffness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse after a workout or yard work for the best muscle-recovery experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PharmaSpa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":29644358800,"sku":"PHS-130Z-CRY-04","price":24.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1490\/9756\/files\/Tiger-Balm-Epsom-salts-PharmaSpa-Original-spa-and-bath-Crystals_1.jpg?v=1768594050","url":"https:\/\/arcticspasontario.com\/products\/pharmaspa-tiger-balm","provider":"Arctic Spas Ontario","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
