Boiron expands Arnicare line with new roll-on format for pain relief
Boiron has introduced an Arnicare Roll-On topical pain relief product featuring a cooling metal roller applicator. The design allows for hands-free application, aiming to reduce mess while providing a massaging effect. The formula, which is designed to absorb quickly, is powered by Arnica montana, a plant traditionally used to help relieve muscle pain, stiffness, bruising and swelling from injuries.

Users can apply a thin layer of the gel by twisting the roller to the “ON” position, gently squeezing the tube and rolling it over the affected area. The roller can then be switched to “OFF” for continued massaging. The product is intended for use up to three times daily, with a recommended five-minute wait if applying after heat or ice therapy.
Arnicare Roll-On is available over the counter at major retailers, including CVS, Target, The Vitamin Shoppe, Amazon and select health stores. The suggested retail price is $10.59.
As with other homeopathic remedies, users are advised to follow label instructions. Individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding should consult a healthcare provider before using the product.
