Hot - Cold pads

The use of hot and cold pads is a popular method for relieving pain and tension in the muscles and joints. They are ideal when recovery from an injury is required, muscle pain occurs, or when relaxation of the affected area is needed. The pads can be heated in a microwave or hot water or frozen in a refrigerator or cold water. In addition, there are also self-heating patches.

Hot and cold pads are available in different sizes and shapes to cover every body part and need. Although both pads are used to reduce pain and inflammation, they work in different ways. More specifically, hot pads are commonly used to help relieve muscle pain as the heat increases blood circulation. Similarly, cold packs and ice packs are used to help reduce inflammation.
