The main purpose of this product is to help minimise swelling and pain caused by injuries of any kind (sports injuries and pain due to overexertion or age).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirstly, the product can be used cold to minimise swelling, inflammation and pain. This can be very beneficial if the injury has occurred recently. The cold causes the blood circulation to slow down a little, which greatly prevents bruising. In addition to this, it numbs the area so that the nerves are less active. As a result, the pain sensation will gradually disappear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecondly, heat relaxes, soothes and minimises pain. However, it is most effective when the injury has been going on for some time (a few hours or days). Heat creates a feeling of comfort in the body and improves blood flow. As more nutrients will reach the area, a better recovery can take place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther benefits of this accessory include the following:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe gel is non-toxic, so it is not a danger if the pouch is damaged. However, it is not recommended to continue using it after this.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe pouch is made of natural materials that are friendly to sensitive skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is it suitable for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is suitable for use by anyone to minimise pain or swelling from injuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstructions for use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo use it cold, put it in the freezer or refrigerator for a few hours. On the other hand, to use it in heat, it can be heated with water or in the microwave. It is important to keep in mind that when it is heated, the bag should be kneaded a little so that the heat is distributed throughout the gel. A towel should be used in order to prevent skin burns (both for cold and high temperatures).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not recommended to use cold and then immediately heat, as this could have negative effects. What can be done is to wait a few hours in order to get the benefits of both methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eContraindications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis product has no contraindications to frequent use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eComposition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLatex-free reusable pouch.
