What are the benefits of heat therapy for back pain?

There are many forms of back pain, with lower back pain being the most common1. When we are in pain, we want quick relief that is targeted and effective. The Deep Heat range includes a fast acting heat-spray, a massage oil, penetrating heat creams, regular patches for smaller areas and back patches, to help you to manage back pain effectively. Deep Heat products even include ICE Spray and ICE Gel for times when fast acting, cooling pain relief is required.

Heat increases blood flow to the affected area providing oxygen & nutrients to aid the healing process and help restore movement. Heat should be applied to the affected area where pain is felt to provide fast, targeted relief. Heat also helps to speed up injury rehab by applying a heat product after having performed Cold therapy for approximately 72 hours post injury. Heat can also aid muscle warm-up and may prevent injury when applied before exercise.

 

Do Deep Heat back patches provide fast pain relief?

Deep Heat Back Patches act fast once applied to the skin. When a pack is opened and the back patch is exposed to air, the heating properties are activated. After placing the patch on the affected area you will notice the heating quickly. Full heating potential is reached in only five minutes. Deep Heat Back Patches deliver penetrating warmth for up to 8 hours. Once removed it can continue to provide pain relief for up to a further 8 hours.

Back Patches offer hands-free deep tissue warmth, with benefits that include:

Relief from over-exertion: Heat is helpful in combating pain in muscles, and the back is home to several important muscle groups. Deep Heat products including Back Patches are a great addition to your medicinal cabinet, travelling kit, first aid kit or even your handbag to keep them in reach for when pain strikes.

Relief from stiffness and pain from muscular knots: These types of pain include muscular strains and ongoing pain caused by stiffness resulting from sporting activities or over-worked muscles. Deep Heat Back Patches have your back pain covered.

Relief muscle strains and stiffness: Many people experience back aches, strains, and stiffness at some point. Deep Heat Back Patches act fast to manage the pain of strains, sprains and stiffness providing muscular pain relief and are convenient, odourless and easy to use.

Can Deep Heat back patches be worn under clothing?

Deep Heat Back Patches are odourless, gently adhere to the  skin, and can be discretely worn under clothing. In fact, one back patch will warm muscles for up to 8 hours and the pain relief will continue for a further 8 hours after patch removal. Attach the Deep Heat Back Patch where muscle pain or joint stiffness exists.

How should you apply heated back patches?

Simply remove the protective film from the Deep Heat Back Patch, and adhere the patch directly onto your back. The back patch will stick firmly on clean, dry skin. The iron oxide contained in the patch reacts immediately when it is exposed to air. Muscles, ligaments and joints will quickly warm up and become soothed, warmed and less painful.

Can you have a heating patch on for too long?

Deep Heat Pain Relief Products are effective for temporary pain relief. Deep Heat Back Patches should be used for a maximum of up to 8 hours. Once removed it can continue to provide soothing pain relief for up to a further 8 hours. Hence providing up to 16 hours pain relief.

It is also advisable to avoid;

  • sleeping with a Back Patch and applying continuous pressure on it.
  • using a Back Patch in the same area for over 8 hours within a 24 hour period.
