AcuPlus Ingredients: What’s Inside Our Menthol Pain Relief Cream

AcuPlus Pain Relief Cream is a topical pain relief formula made for targeted, everyday muscle and joint comfort. The active ingredient is menthol 3.5%, a topical analgesic that creates a cooling sensation on the skin to help temporarily relieve minor aches and pains.


In addition to menthol, AcuPlus includes a comfort-focused blend of supportive ingredients such as aloe vera, arnica, MSM, magnesium sulfate, boswellia serrata, glucosamine sulfate, willow bark, vitamin B6, vitamin E, licorice root, ilex, and cetyl myristoleate.


AcuPlus is designed for people who want a topical option they can apply directly to areas such as the back, neck, shoulders, knees, hands, wrists, feet, and other sore muscle and joint areas.

Active Ingredient: Menthol 3.5%

The cooling feel of AcuPlus starts with menthol. 


Menthol is the ingredient responsible for its labeled pain relief. As a topical analgesic, it helps temporarily relieve minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with simple backache, arthritis, strains, bruises, and sprains.


Menthol activates cold-sensing receptors in the skin, creating the unmistakable cooling sensation you feel when you apply AcuPlus. That sensation gives you a direct, targeted way to use pain relief: apply the cream or roll-on to the affected area as directed on the label.


AcuPlus pairs its 3.5% menthol active ingredient with a supportive formula designed for comfortable application. For the pain relief claim, menthol does the heavy lifting.
