How Heat Therapy Works
Heat has long been used as a natural remedy to relieve pain and reduce joint stiffness.
Heat therapy:
Helps block the transmission of pain signals to the brain.
Penetrates muscles to relax, soothe and unlock tightness.
Increases local blood circulation.
Relieves pain at the source. Other topical agents, known as counterirritants, function by distracting the brain from feeling pain by creating feelings of hot or cold, but they don’t actually generate heat or increase skin or muscle temperature.
