Product overview
About Deep Heat Heat Rub
The red tube itself: Deep Heat's original pain-relieving rub, delivering targeted, penetrating warmth to muscular and rheumatic aches, pains and stiffness. Methyl salicylate and menthol create the famous heat sensation that boosts local blood flow and eases the pain while you massage it in — the large 100g tube.
Why heat works on muscles
Warmth relaxes tight muscle fibres, increases circulation to the sore area, and competes with pain signals on their way to the brain — three mechanisms in one sensation. The massage itself is part of the therapy; the rub makes your hands more effective.
How to use
Massage gently into the affected area 2–3 times daily. Wash hands after; keep well away from eyes and broken skin. Adults and children over 5 (check the label for children's use).
Good to know
Heat suits stiffness and chronic tension; fresh swollen injuries prefer cold (Deep Freeze) first. Contains salicylate — caution if aspirin-sensitive; not for use in pregnancy or breastfeeding without advice.

Frequently asked questions
Heat or cold for my ache?
Heat for stiffness, tension and old grumbles; cold for fresh knocks and anything swollen. Deep Heat and Deep Freeze are the two halves of the toolkit.
How warm does it get?
A strong, building warmth rather than burning — start with a small amount to judge your skin's response, and never apply to broken skin.
Can I use it with painkiller tablets?
Generally yes — but it contains a salicylate (aspirin family), so check with a pharmacist if you're aspirin-sensitive or on blood thinners.
