Pain and cold treatment


Pain tolerance and the way of experiencing pain varies between individuals and their circumstances. People can feel pain by almost any part of the body; skin, muscles, joints, connective tissues or bones and experience it as a superficial or deep pain. It can also be classified as acute, which indicates disorders in the body. Some typical cases are strains, ruptures, low back pain, and stress injuries. Sometimes pain becomes chronic, such as aches resulting from monotonous stress and tension, arthritis, eg. rheumatoid arthritis, or neuropathic pains due to nervous injury or disorder. Naturally, various cases need different preparations to achieve beneficial results in pain management and relieving symptoms.

The IcePower Cold Therapy consists of total line of non-prescription analgesics - providing fast and effective relief of pain - both for acute and chronic pain and inflammation management.

IcePower Cold Therapy affords fast activation of peripheral pain sensory receptors and nerve tracks, which are able to block the pathway through which pain passes from the spinal cord level to the brain; the sensation of pain is simply displaced by cold, and also surrounding muscles will be relaxed. At the same time brain transmits orders to the body to produce endorphins, which promotes healing process.

In most cases pain is accompanied by inflammation. This is normally indicated by local fever and redness, swelling and sensitiveness to touch.

IcePower product line induce a moderate reduction of tissue temperature, whereby the treatment may be continued, without a risk of hypothermia, to prevent and restrict swelling, relieve muscle tension, reduce haemorrhage and effectively suppress inflammation.
