CALMADOL HOT-COLD PAD

Description
Medical Device Class I (Directive 93/42/EEC). Single use. Not sterile.
The Calmadol hot-cold gel pad, thanks to the benefits provided by heat and cold therapy, helps to relieve pain, reduce swelling in case of trauma, and decrease muscle tension, aiding in the improvement of mobility in the neck, arms, shoulders, and legs. The pad is ergonomic and reusable.
Gel pad for external applications. The new 3-cell shape makes the pad ergonomic and adaptable to every part of the body. The soft fabric cover is resealable and has an elastic band that allows the pad to be positioned in the area (e.g., arm, shoulder, leg) without having to hold it with the hand.
Heat therapy offers the following benefits:
Stimulates blood circulation: heat improves blood flow through the dilation of blood vessels.
Relieves pain: heat reduces tension, relaxes, and improves mobility.
Increases the removal of metabolic waste products: waste material produced by cellular tissues and muscles is eliminated more easily thanks to better blood circulation.
Lower back pain, stiff neck, rheumatism, hypothermia, and in all cases where heat application is needed.
Cold therapy on the patient provides the following benefits:
Applied immediately after the traumatic event, it reduces swelling and alleviates inflammation.
Cooling the tissues blocks the sensitive nerve endings, the sensation of pain, and promotes the contraction of capillaries and tissue drainage.
Bruises, sprains, trauma, hyperthermia, and in all cases where cryotherapy and cold use are required.
