Five active components, each doing a specific job. Read what each ingredient contributes, then see them combined in our full formulation.
Menthol activates TRPM8 cold-sensing receptors in the skin, producing a cooling sensation that signals counter-irritation to the central nervous system within minutes. This short-circuits the pain signal at the application site and creates an immediate sense of relief that buys time for the deeper actives to absorb.
Lidocaine USP 4% is a topical anesthetic. It temporarily blocks sodium channels in the peripheral nerves, numbing the surface and reducing the intensity of pain signals reaching the brain. At the over-the-counter 4% strength it works locally with minimal systemic absorption.
Diclofenac sodium is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). At the topical 1% concentration used in Ortho Freeze, it reduces inflammation directly at the joint or muscle without the systemic exposure of oral NSAIDs, which can affect the stomach, kidneys, and cardiovascular system.
Ortho Freeze includes 6000mg of CBD Extract Isolate per bottle. CBD isolate is the purified cannabidiol molecule with no THC. It is included for its compatibility with the other actives in a topical carrier and is third-party tested to confirm THC-free status.
For most users, yes. A roll-on delivers a controlled, even film of product directly to the painful area, keeps hands clean, and eliminates the transfer-to-face risk that comes with applying lidocaine or menthol creams by hand.
