Hot and cold therapy is a common physical therapy that relieves pain, reduces swelling, and promotes the body's self-healing through hot and cold compresses. As a convenient and practical hot and cold therapy tool, PVC reusable instant hot packs are becoming increasingly popular.
Hot therapy and cold therapy help the body relieve pain and promote healing in different ways:
Hot therapy promotes muscle relaxation and pain relief by dilating blood vessels and increasing blood flow. Hot compresses are particularly suitable for relieving muscle tension, joint pain, and chronic pain.
Cold therapy helps reduce inflammation and swelling by constricting blood vessels and lowering local temperature. Cold compresses are suitable for acute injuries, sprains, scratches, or post-operative recovery, which helps reduce local temperature and pain.
