Shoulder hot cold gel pack

WHAT ARE COLD THERAPY AND HOT THERAPY?

Cold therapy decreases surface tissue temperature and causes vasoconstriction, which spreads to 

                         adjacent areas helping to control and reduce swelling and pain.

Cold therapy    is recommended as a first aid treatment for minor injuries to reduce swelling and relieve pain.

Hot therapy   increases skin temperature and cause vasodilation. Increased blood flow relieves pain and

                         offers more protect to Patients. Periodic short duration heat treatments are frequently 

                         recommended as follow-up therapy for injuries (after 48 hours) to increase blood supply to 

                         the injured area, reduce discomfort and accelerate the healing process.
