Heat and Cold

Heat increases blood flow, and is used when we want to increase circulation. Heat may be used to help loosen an area where the muscle has become stiff and tight. Head can be used priot to an activity to warm-up and loosen the muscles.

Cold decreases blood flow, shrinks swelling, and can relieve pain by desensitizing nerve endings. Cold is often used immediately following an acute injury, and after activity.
