Cold Packs for Cryotherapy

by - 5:34:00 PM


Cold therapy produces vasoconstriction, which slows circulation reducing inflammation, muscle spasm, and pain.
Superficial cold is available in many forms, including a variety of commercial cold packs, ice cubes, iced towels/compresses, and forms of hydrotherapy. The duration of cold therapy is less than heat therapy; usually less than 15 minutes. The effect of cold is known to last longer than heat.
Cold or ice should never be applied directly to the skin. A barrier, such as a towel, should be placed between the cold agent and the skin's surface to prevent skin and nerve damage. Punctured commercial cold packs should be immediately discarded, as the chemical agent/gel will burn skin.[1]
With Livshop’s cold pack say goodbye to muscle spasm, inflammation, and pain.  This nylon-made cold pack generates heat or cold by the action of chemicals within the pack instantly.
