Heat & Cold Therapy

Heat and cold therapy are both incredibly popular pain relief options, and for good reason. Both of these therapy options have wonderful benefits that are great for old injuries, post-workout soreness, strains, and swelling. At Noriega Chiropractic Clinics, we offer both heat and cold therapy to help reduce pain and speed recovery. Our team of experts are here to help you figure out which therapy option is right for your particular condition.

What Are the Benefits of Cold Therapy?

If you have been seeking any of these incredible benefits, our highly-trained staff can assist you in properly performing cold therapy. Typically, we utilize an ice pack for a specified amount of time to reduce blood flow to a particular area, causing the blood vessels to constrict, which is what assists in reducing swelling, pain, and inflammation. Because cold therapy can affect your blood pressure, circulation, and heart rate, it’s important that it is performed with the assistance of a medical professional.

Cold therapy has a number of great benefits, including:

  • Reduced soreness
  • Decreasing swelling
  • Spiking energy levels
  • Decreasing inflammation
  • Boosting the immune system
  • Improving muscle recovery
  • Decreasing pain
  • And more

What Are the Benefits of Heat Therapy?

While heat therapy is typically thought of as being helpful after working out or for recovery, it can also be used before a workout. For those who have excess scar tissue, or have areas of chronic tightness or pain, using a hot pack before working out can reduce the risk of further damage and injury.

It’s important to take caution when using heat therapy, as you may accidentally burn the skin. It’s always best to perform heat therapy with the assistance of a medical professional to ensure proper application.

Heat therapy is great for recovery and healing, and has a slew of other benefits. Some of these include:

  • Soothing stiff, sore, or cramping muscles
  • Helping ease joint inflammation
  • Relieving arthritis symptoms
  • Relieving lower back pain
  • Helping ease muscle recovery post-workout
  • Increasing blood flow
  • Increasing tissue elasticity
  • Increasing mobility and flexibility
  • And more

  • Should You Use Heat or Cold Therapy?

    If you are dealing with an injury or soreness, you may be wondering which therapy option is right for you.

    Cold therapy is beneficial for reducing immediate swelling and inflammation, as well as managing acute or chronic pain. Whereas heat therapy is excellent for arthritis pain, sore, overused muscles post-workout, or it can be used pre-workout to prevent further damage to deep tissue injuries.

    Each particular case is unique, and it may be difficult to decide which therapy application is best for you. While both heat and cold therapy are great for boosting healing and relief, it is important to consult with a medical profession before attempting either therapy option. It’s also important to keep in mind that both treatments are temporary solutions, and for long-term relief, there are other treatment options available that you can look into, such as chiropractic care and physiotherapy.
