Annique Resque Muscle Ice Roll-On Gel – 60ml

Fast-acting cold therapy relief — an instant cooling, numbing roll-on that eases sore muscles, reduces inflammation and supports faster recovery.

Cold therapy is one of the most trusted and effective methods for managing muscle pain, swelling and inflammation — used in sports, fitness and everyday recovery routines for good reason. When applied to injured or overworked areas, cold causes blood vessels to constrict, slowing fluid buildup, numbing pain naturally and helping muscles relax after strain or overuse. The challenge has always been practical — ice packs are inconvenient, messy and limit mobility. The Annique Resque Muscle Ice Roll-On Gel solves this entirely.

Delivering the proven benefits of cold therapy in a portable, quick-drying and completely mess-free roll-on format, Resque Muscle Ice provides an instant icy, numbing cooling sensation from the very first application — no ice pack required. The upgraded ergonomic roller allows precise, targeted application directly to the affected area with a better grip and no product on the hands — making it as practical at the gym, at the office or on the go as it is at home.

The formula combines two powerful cooling actives — Menthol and Menthoxypropanediol — for both immediate and long-lasting relief. Rooibos Extract adds antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support throughout, balancing the strong cooling actives with a gentle, skin-friendly benefit. Quick-drying and non-sticky — apply and continue with your day.

For best results, apply within 48 hours of an injury.

⚠️ Avoid contact with eyes and inflamed or broken skin. For external use only. Keep out of reach of children. Store below 25°C away from direct sunlight.

Key Ingredients & Benefits

Menthol
The primary cooling active in the formula. Delivers an instant icy, numbing sensation on the skin — working as a counterirritant that distracts nerve endings from pain signals and provides fast, effective soothing relief from muscle aches, tension and stiffness.

Menthoxypropanediol
A menthol derivative that delivers a longer-lasting, smoother cooling effect than Menthol alone. Extends the relief provided by Menthol — ensuring the cooling and numbing effect continues well beyond the initial sensation for sustained comfort.

Rooibos Extract (Aspalathus Linearis)
Rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. Adds a soothing, skin-friendly benefit that balances the strong cooling actives in the formula — making the gel gentle and comfortable on the skin while supporting overall recovery throughout use.

The formula dries quickly — no sticky residue.
Reapply three to four times daily as needed.
For injury recovery, apply within 48 hours of the injury for optimal effect.

Having both covers the full spectrum of muscle and joint discomfort.
Annique Resque Mist 100ml
Confirmed pairing in source. While Muscle Ice targets muscle and joint pain with cold therapy, the Resque Mist addresses the headaches, tension and general discomfort that often accompany physical strain and recovery — together providing comprehensive relief from multiple dimensions of physical discomfort.
Annique Resque Concentrate 10ml
Confirmed pairing in source. The pocket-sized Concentrate provides complementary targeted relief for headaches and tension points — a practical on-the-go companion to the Muscle Ice for those who need relief throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How soon after an injury should I apply this?
A: Apply within 48 hours of the injury for optimal cooling and anti-inflammatory effects. Cold therapy is most effective in the acute phase immediately following an injury — when swelling and inflammation are at their peak.

Q: How quickly does it work?
A: Most people feel the cooling effect within seconds of applying. Relief can last for several hours depending on the severity of discomfort and activity level — with Menthoxypropanediol extending the effect of the initial Menthol cooling sensation.

Q: How is this different from the Resque ZeroAche+ Roll-On?
A: The two roll-ons use opposite therapy principles. Resque ZeroAche+ is a heat therapy product that warms the skin to increase circulation and ease chronic muscle tension. Resque Muscle Ice is a cold therapy product that cools and numbs to reduce inflammation and acute pain. Cold therapy is generally recommended for new injuries within the first 48 hours; heat therapy is better suited to chronic muscle tension and stiffness.

Q: Can I use it before exercise as well as after?
A: Yes. Applying before exercise can help loosen tension in stiff muscles before activity. Applying after exercise helps reduce soreness and supports faster recovery.

Q: How often can I apply this?
A: Three to four times daily as needed, depending on discomfort and tolerance.

Q: Does it leave a sticky residue?
A: No. The fast-absorbing formula dries quickly, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and non-sticky.

Q: Can I store it in the fridge?
A: Yes — and it is recommended. Storing the roll-on in the fridge intensifies the cooling sensation on application, making it particularly effective after workouts or on hot days.

Q: Can I use this for arthritis?
A: Yes. The Resque Muscle Ice Roll-On may provide temporary soothing relief for arthritis-related joint stiffness and pain. It is not a cure for arthritis and should be used as a complementary comfort measure alongside appropriate medical advice for long-term conditions.
