Hot Therapy
How
Can Hot Therapy Benefit Me In My Everyday Life Or Healing Journey?
Hot therapy delivered
through a warm/hot compress or mask helps break down and disintegrate bruising
discolorations and provides moisture or dry heat to areas of discomfort. Hot
therapy can also be soothing on sore facial tissues that have been tightened.
You may use hot therapy on your bruises from days around days 2-3 post-op (upon
your doctor's approval) provided your swelling is not too considerable. A compress
is typically heated by boiling water, hot tap water or by heating in a microwave.
Beyond using these compresses during recovery from a procedure, these hot compress
products can be used to reduce swelling and bruising resulting from any type
of injury. Additionally, these compresses are highly effective for puffy eyes
treatment, alleviation of tired eyes and headaches, relief from clogged sinuses
due to colds and allergies, and first aid for burns and trauma.
