Since 1995  Warm Buddy have been making their natural heat packs and heat wraps and we have been advocating the use of heat therapy as a natural means to managing pain.

There are many different pain management options for most every kind of pain — from arthritis to chronic muscle pain. You can try treatments like transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), or medications to ease pain and inflammation.

Pain Management: How heat therapy can help

Heat therapy can be effective at managing chronic muscle pain or the stiff, sore joints affected by arthritis,try using our Sports Therapy wrap. Heat works by helping your muscles relax, which can alleviate both pain and stiffness. Applying heat to your muscles or joints also encourages circulation and blood flow to the area, which can reduce pain. Boosting blood flow to a painful area can also help to get rid of lactic acid waste buildup, which contributes to pain.

Here are some different ways to use heat therapy:

Apply a heating wraps or packs to the sore area; just pop the Warm Buddy heat wrap in the microwave for 3 minutes and start enjoying the warmth to the muscles.

With muscle pains it is also important to be proactive, that is to warm up the muscles that historically give you pain before you do any strenuous work.This make the muscle more pliable and less liable to injury.

Pain Management: How to use cold therapy

If you have a joint or muscle that’s so swollen and inflamed that it’s causing you pain, cold therapy is another pain management option to consider. Cold therapy reduces blood flow to the area, which can help to alleviate painful swelling and reduce inflammation. It also has a numbing effect on the area, and it slows down the pain messages sent from your nerves to your brain.

Here are some ways to use cold therapy:

• Soak the affected area in a cold tub — just don’t make the water too icy or stay submerged for too long.
• Apply a Warm Buddy heat pack that has been in the freezer for a few hours as this will bring relief to the affected areas.
• What is best for managing pain hot or cold therapy?If you’re trying to decide between cold therapy or heat therapy, consider the type of pain you have and where it is, what your doctor recommends, and what relief you personally get from each one. For instance, a review of studies on lower back pain found that heat had a slight edge over cold, and that these therapies often work best in conjunction with other treatments, like exercise, physical therapy, and medication. According to the Arthritis Foundation, either heat or cold may help with pain from arthritis — it may be a matter of trial and error to find which works better for you.Cold therapy can be particularly helpful if you’ve got an overuse injury and a muscle or joint is swollen and painful following exercise; it may also feel best on a flaring arthritic joint. If you’ve got a sore or painful muscle or a very stiff joint, heat therapy may be your best bet to relieve symptoms.

• Remember it is always better to use hot or cold therapy in conjunction with your doctors best advice.

Heat wraps for back muscle pain relief

Introduction to heat therapy for neck, upper and lower back muscle pain relief

While the overall qualities of warmth and heat have long been associated with comfort and relaxation, heat therapy goes a step further and can provide both relief of pain,sore muscles  and healing benefits for many types of neck and shoulder pain. In addition, heat therapy for neck ,shoulder,sore muscles and back pain in the form of heating pads, heat wraps, hot baths, etc. is both inexpensive way to relieve sore muscles.

How heat therapy works for sore back muscles

Sore muscles result from strains and over-exertion, creating tension in the muscles and soft tissues around the back. As a result, this restricts proper circulation and sends pain signals to the brain.
Back Muscle spasms  and shoulders can create sensations that may range from mild discomfort to excruciating back pain. Heat therapy can help relieve pain from the sore muscles & spasm and related tightness in the back and shoulders.

Heat therapy application can help provide sore muscle pain relief through several mechanisms:
• Heat therapy dilates the blood vessels of the muscles surrounding the neck. This process increases the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the sore muscles, helping to heal the damaged tissue.

• Heat stimulates the sensory receptors in the skin, which means that applying heat to the lower back will decrease transmissions of pain signals to the brain and partially relieve the discomfort.

• Heat application facilitates stretching the soft tissues around the back, including sore muscles, connective tissue, and adhesions. Consequently, with the heat pack, there will be a decrease in stiffness as well as injury, with an increase in flexibility and overall feeling of comfort. Flexibility is very important for a healthy neck.

There are several other significant benefits of heat therapy that make it so appealing. Compared to most therapies, heat therapy is quite inexpensive (and in many circumstances it’s free – such as taking a hot bath). Heat therapy is also easy to do – it can be done at home while relaxing and portable heat wraps also make it an option while at work or in the car.

For many people, heat therapy works best when combined with other treatment modalities, such as physical therapy and exercise. Relative to most medical treatments available, heat therapy is appealing to many people because it is a non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical form.

Well it looks like the warmer weather is finally here, Spring has finally sprung.

Through the winter the chore “to do list” has been growing.

Now like any athlete you are no different,the body needs to be prepared for this shock of energy that is going to be put on it,as with athletes they keep their muscles maintained,warm and flexible.

Lower Back Pain

You need to do the same as lower back pain is one of the prime injuries when exerting this new found energy.

The muscles have laid dormant throughout the winter and are stiff,like an old elastic band,they have not flexibility and when stretched you can tear and injure very easily.

Warm Buddy

So the trick is to keep them warm prior to these chores,place the heat pack on the areas that are prone to injury and then do your warm up routine,core exercises are a great and easy way to maintain muscles, thus reducing the lower back pain injuries. The Warm Buddy heat pack will warm up the muscles and make them easier to flex and stretch.

Have a safe and great spring.
