Deep Heat Cream 100g is a non-greasy, pain relieving cream that can be directly applied to the source of pain. It is used for the relief of muscular pains including Fibrositis (muscle tenderness or stiffness), Muscle strains and Arthroses (pain in the joints). Recommended for the relief of muscular pains and stiffness including back and rheumatic pain, sciatica, fibrositis, sprains and chilblains. Can be used before or after exercise.
Deep Heat generates penetrating warmth in aching, injured and sore muscles. Deep Heat Heat Rub can be used before or after exercise and contains ingredients that provide pain-relief plus heat. Heat therapy helps to increase blood supply to relax and soothe. Heat causes the blood vessels to dilate, bringing more blood to an area, which brings oxygen, protein and nutrients – helping muscles and joints become more flexible and move more freely. This process also helps repair damaged tissue so may aid the healing process.
Topical pain relief products are applied externally to the skin where they exert an analgesic effect.
