Benefits of heat therapy

Heat therapy has been used as an effective natural remedy for centuries

Many episodes of pain come from muscle exertion or strain, which creates tension
in the muscles and soft tissues. This tension can constrict circulation, sending pain
signals to the brain

Heat application eases pain by:
Dilating the blood vessels surrounding the painful area. Increased blood flow
provides additional oxygen & nutrients to help heal the damaged muscle tissue
Stimulating sensation in the skin and therefore decreasing the pain signals
being transmitted to the brain
Increasing the flexibility (and decreasing painful stiffness) of soft tissues
surrounding the injured area, including muscles and connective tissue

General uses of heat packs:
Physiotherapy, overuse injuries, chronic injuries, arthritis, menstrual pain &
cramps, growing pains, back / neck ache or stiffness, staying warm, thawing
frozen pipes, warming bottles and batteries

How do heat packs generate heat?

Water is a liquid above 0oC and becomes a solid (ice) below 0oC
The salt solution used in heat packs is a liquid above 54oC and crystalises to
become a solid below 54oC
However, the solution is very stable as a liquid and can be ‘supercooled’ easily as
a liquid so that it remains a liquid at room temperature (around 25oC), just like in a
Kwikheat warmer ready to be used
Tiny crystals of solid salt form in microscopic cracks on the surface of the metal
disc inside the heat pack
When the disk is flexed these crystals are pushed out into the liquid
The crystals act as ‘nucleation centres’, causing all the surrounding salt molecules
in liquid form to join the crystal lattice until everything has solidified
The process of crystalisation releases heat, raising the temperature of the salt to
54oC
Placing the heat pack in boiling water melts the salt crystals into liquid form again –
as long as all the crystals have dissolved, the liquid will be stable again
