Thermophore: Medium (14x14)
|
Dr. Fors' Comments:
|
DESCRIPTION:
The Thermophore Automatic Moist Heating Pad / Pack electric fomentation unit was developed to conveniently provide moist fomentation treatments whenever moist heat is indicated. The Thermophore Hot Pack has a special tightly-woven flannel cover which retains moisture from the air. When the unit is turned on, the surge of heat into the cover moves the moisture from the heated flannel to the cooler body tissue.The most effective way to use moist heat is by applying a short treatment at a high temperature, then allowing the body to return to normal temperature, and then repeating the process.
High temperature and moisture is what makes the Thermophore Hot Pack effective. Penetrating moist heat dilates the blood vessels, increasing circulation and creating blood flow. This takes away waste and toxins which may have settled in the injured area and brings new healing blood cells to the tissue.Moist heat therapy is a means to temporarily relieve pain derived from arthritis, bursitis, back aches and muscle spasms. This product also aids in the treatment of colds with congestion and sinus conditions. Many women find monthly cramps can be lessened with the use of a Thermophore unit placed across their abdomen.
Directions
Best results are obtained by applying the Thermophore Hot Pack to the affected area for a maximum of 30 minutes. Treatments should not last longer than 30 minutes unless prescribed by a physician. If needed, the pack may be applied several times a day at 2 hour intervals. Keep treated area warm after a treatment so that the muscles do not tighten from a too-rapid cool down.
