Tiger Balm is the trade name for a heat rub manufactured and distributed by Haw Par Healthcare in Singapore. It was originally developed in the 1870s by a herbalist, Aw Chu Kin, in Rangoon, Burma, who asked his sons Aw Boon Haw and Aw Boon Par on his deathbed to perfect the product.^{[citation needed]}

Tiger Balm is available in two variants:

• Tiger Balm Red - contains cassia oil, for muscular aches and pains.
