- heart and vascular diseases;
- pathological conditions of the liver;
- tuberculosis;
- unhealed wounds;
- allergy to ointment components;
- pregnancy.

The cooling effect is provided by such products as Fastum-gel, Comfrey - this is achieved through special components that have a calming effect.

In all other options, it is better to rub in with circular massage movements. Some gels are made to be as absorbent as possible (to provide a quick effect).
