My wife is a physical therapist and has professionally used Free-Up. For home, it is her massage cream of choice, and we use it for feet, calves, hamstrings, back, shoulders, and neck. There's no lingering odor or residue, but it does leave skin well moisturized, which is a plus that is not advertised as such. It's a thick paste cream consistency, but is smooth and works well to protect skin during massage. In our experience, it does not stain towels or linens, and is not messy. I don't even feel the need to wash my hands after applying. I did not give an additional rating for pain relief or scent, as Free-Up is a massage cream that does not contain perfumes or any pain medicine. It's more expensive, but it is a professional grade product, and worth the cost in my opinion. I would suggest purchasing the larger 16 oz jar, as it is more cost effective that way, but your needs may vary. Read more
This is by far the best massage cream I have ever used. It keeps skin supple yet not greasy or oily. A little goes a long way, which is nice because this is a bit pricey, but it's worth e ery penny. It is also unscented which is definitely an added benefit for me! Read more
My physical therapist used this on me and I decided to get a jar to use at home. It is non greasy, glides on smoothly and absorbs into the skin well Read more

Post op TKR, this is what my PT uses in the office so I ordered it for home. Perfect for scar work and massaging the knee in general. It’s a little greasy at first but if I let it dry a few minutes after I am done that goes away. Also a little goes a long way so this will last for a bit. Read more
This is the exact product my physical therapist uses when working on my hip pain, so I got it for home use. My husband used to massage me with lotion. But, lotion gets sticky and doesn't allow his hands to glide during massage. This product is perfect. It provides enough slip to keep from pulling my skin and it isn't sticky. It takes just a small amount of product for the perfect massage. One tub lasts for many months, so it's a great value for a professional product. Read more
excellent product Read more
Very happy with this! Same product my physical therapist uses on me at my sessions. PROS: - easy to use - a little bit massaged into the muscles around my surgery spot gets the muscles loose - i did not find this greasy! - no funky scent like other medical massage oils I have tried CONS: - have not found one yet Read more
