Back Pain - Thermophore Moist Heat Pad

Back pain relief can be yours by using Thermophore moist heating pads! The Thermophore moist heating pad in the standard size (14" x 27") is perfect for larger areas of the body, including the entire spine, both shoulders, and the legs!

Thermophore is Recommended by Doctors for: * Arthritis or Rheumatism* TMJ* Chronic back pain * Fibromyalgia* Muscle spasms* Sports injuries (after the acute phase) * Strained muscles or ligamentsLow back pain may be caused by trauma or continual strain. The body responds with muscle guarding, an attempt to immobilize the painful site by tightening the muscles. Muscle guarding impairs circulation in the affected area. The decrease in blood supply leads to a decrease in metabolism with an accumulation of waste products. TENS (transcutaneous electric nerve stimulator) and moist heat modalities can help break this cycle and aid in the normal healing process.
