IcePower relieves the symptoms of Rheumatism

In rheumatic conditions the joints become inflamed and this results in structural changes and dislocation.  These changes are due to continuous or repeated inflammation and therefore treatment of inflammation is necessary.  There is no cure for rheumatoid arthritis but its progress can be delayed and even halted  with medication.  Also essential are exercise, movement therapy and cold treatment. The main aim of treatments is the control of rheumatic inflammation, pain relief and increased mobility.  

Rheumatic inflammation generally appears in joints but can also spread to tendons, sheath and even to the muscles. Inflammation can be treated with anti-inflammatory drugs but cold therapy is also beneficial. Cold treatment stops inflammation from spreading, reduces swelling and relieves  pain.  IcePower –cold treatment is easy to use. Treatment with  IcePower cold pack by physiotherapists  or at home quickly lowers the temperature in a painful area   Treatment can be more effective  with IcePower –cold during day. IcePower cold gel is based on menthol which influences the pain system trough CMR1 –receptors to relieve pain.

Varying degrees of rheumatic inflammation can causes permanent changes to the joints.  Various   splints and supports are used to prevent and fix such changes, but this causes stress to support structures, especially the muscles. Treatment of muscle tension with IcePower –cold gel helps to maintain good daily performance.

IcePower cold gel is an excellent aid to the treatment of rheumatism because it is not a medicine and therefore has no harmful effects on the body and also allows the reduction of the dosage of anti inflammatory drugs. Use of IcePower cold gel as part of self care improves treatment results.
