960 - STEPS Gel – Hot and Cold Gel Packs for Therapy
BENEFITS
- Ice therapy is one of the most common recommendations by doctors for injury prevention and recovery. Ice during the first 24 hours following an injury, when there is evidence of swelling and/or bleeding. Ice therapy reduces pain and muscle spasms and decreases the metabolic rate of cells, which limits the risk of cell death after an injury and helps prevent long-term damage
- Heat therapy increases circulation, effectively relaxing muscles & easing movement. Heat promotes healing and speeds recovery of damaged tissue by stimulating blood flow to injured areas once swelling has gone down
- When conveniently heated in a microwave, the gel packs in your STEPS Gel pack is the perfect solution to relax stiff muscles and encourage blood flow and healing
- The reusable packs deliver heat directly to your desired relief area without making a mess
- Both heat and ice can be administered through the STEPS Gel pack for the doctor recommended time of 20 minutes
