Adapting to cold and hot therapy

• Cold Therapy
  Cold therapy provides immediate relief for acute injuries such as sprains, strains, muscle spasms, inflammation, and traumatic pain. By constricting blood vessels, it helps limit swelling and reduces blood flow to the injured area. Increased blood viscosity supports healing and clot formation, while the cooling effect relieves pain by easing muscle tension.

• Heat Therapy
  Heat therapy is effective for muscle tension, stiff joints, muscle spasms, localized infections, swelling, and post-surgical wounds. By dilating blood vessels, it improves circulation to the affected area and reduces venous congestion. The warmth relaxes tight muscles, alleviates stiffness, and helps relieve pain caused by contraction or rigidity.
