HEAT therapy

  • HEATAPPLICATION:

    Increases tissue temperature, encouraging blood flow and loosening tight muscles.

    .

    Use heat to relax muscles and alleviate stiffness, but avoid applying to acute injuries (where cold therapy is more appropriate).

  • How it works

    1.INCREASED BLOOD CIRCULATION:

    Heat dilates blood vessels, enhancing blood flow to the affected area.

    Improves oxygen and nutrient delivery to tissues, supporting recovery.

    2.MUSCLE RELAXATION:

    Warms and loosens tight or stiff muscles, reducing tension and increasing flexibility.

    3.PAIN RELIEF:

    The soothing warmth reduces pain by calming nerve endings and relaxing tissues.

    4.PREPARATION FOR EXERCISE:

    Prepares muscles and joints for movement by improving elasticity an reducing the risk of strain.

  • When to use

    BEFORETRAINING OR EXERCISE:

    Loosens tight muscles and warms up joints to reduce injury risk.

    CHRONIC CONDITIONS:

    Helps manage long-term issues like arthritis or muscle stiffness.

    POST-INJURY RECOVERY:

    Supports healing during later stages of injury recovery by promoting blood flow.

    COLD WEATHER USE:

    Ideal for warming up muscles in colder climates to maintain mobility.
