Benefits of Microwave Heat packs for Muscular stiffness


Testimonial for Heat Packs

“Having just come to the Osteopath for the first time and had some treatment, which in itself has been fantastic, I was recommended to the heat-pack which I then took home with me and have used consistently for the last two days and have found it amazingly good.

It is very easy to use, very comfortable.  Once you have put it on you can move around with it on and the results are marvelous. 

It just helps the process through and I would recommend it to everybody as it is an easy, simple solution when you are at home, working, anywhere.  It is unobtrusive and well worth having.”

“I am just saying how lovely I feel after I used the Heat Pack.  I feel 10 times better – I have got 2 or 3 of them now – one for my neck, one for my leg”.

The Packs may be heated in a microwave and applied to areas of stiff muscle or frozen in a freezer and be carefully applied after injury to areas of swelling or soreness.

When heated, the packs maintain an even temperature and the moist heat is slowly released over approximately 20 minutes.

To freeze simply remove the slipcover and place the pack in a plastic bag in the freezer until cold to the touch. The pack maintains flexibility even when frozen.

Contrast bathing – alternating between several minutes of hot and then cold and then hot again, can be useful to stimulate blood flow in stiff muscles.
