People in India are not strangers to chronic pain. Over 20% of Indians deal with pain on a nearly daily basis. From menstrual cramps to injuries to muscle issues, people suffer from chronic pain in various forms.
Concerns about addiction make many people reluctant to take medication to manage their pain. But living with pain isn’t easy.
Thankfully there are other, more natural ways to manage chronic pain. Heat therapy is a natural, low-cost and effective method that works very well to cure Chronic pain. Check out the benefits of heat therapy for pain relief here.
Relaxation
Heat is often associated with relaxing and comforting activities, like a warm bath or wrapping up in a blanket to watch TV. The soothing effect of heat can help people relax and lessen the intensity of non-inflammatory pain, which includes:
- Muscles aches and knots
- Stiffness
- Osteoarthritis pain
- Menstrual cramps
- Discomfort because of neuropathy or restless leg syndrome
- Lower back pain
- General pain and sensitivity
Eases Muscle Tension
Increases Blood Flow
Heat therapy also helps blood flow tremendously. Heat causes the blood vessels to dilate — allowing blood to flow more freely.
This stimulation is helpful when dealing with pain due to injuries as the increased blood flow will help speed recovery by bringing more of the nutrients and materials the body needs to heal. It is also useful for other types of pain by bringing proteins and oxygen and removing waste.
A Better Night’s Sleep
Additionally, lavender works wonders to help people de-stress and enjoy a relaxing night of sleep. This makes our lavender-filled heatable products a perfect tool in the fight against pain.
