The correct application of ice packs for injuries can aid the healing process in a few ways:
1. The cold ice packs will constrict blood vessels, which reduces swelling and the blood flow around the injury
2. Ice packs will help to numb the pain and prevent muscle spasms
3. By lowering the temperature of the injured area the cellular processes are reduced which can help to minimise soft tissue damage
The compression wrap facilitates the application of cold compress therapy when used in conjunction with our reusable ice packs. Compression is frequently used in conjunction with Cryotherapy for the treatment of tissue injuries. The increase in external pressure to the injury tissue prevents swelling by hindering fluid loss from the vessels in the injured area. This reduction in swelling accelerates the healing of soft tissue injuries.
