The Multi-Function Heating Pad Is the Good Helper for Healing Body Soreness

Have you feel pain or soreness for your body parts after works? Do the backache, sore eyes and sore neck continuously bother your normal life? If so, you must take a good use of heating pad! Heating pad is a pad used for warming of parts of the body in order to manage pain. Localized application of heat causes the blood vessels in that area to dilate, enhancing perfusion to the targeted tissue. Types of heating pads include electrical, chemical and hot water bottles. For electrical pads, it is widely used as a warmer in cold winter, as well as soothing sore eyes after overusing. When the cold current occurs, some people will feel freeze even if they wear layers of clothes and cover with thick bed quilt. If it is the case, then the heating pad may save you from freezing and numbing. As to the heating pad for eyes, the best time for using it is after ice packs. Ice packs can reduce the swelling for the first step. Then the heating eye pad can sooth the tiredness of eye.

Another type of heating pad is disposable chemical pad. It employs a one-time exothermic chemical reaction such as catalyzed rusting of iron, or dissolving calcium chloride. The reagents are kept in separate compartments within the pad. When the user squeezes the pad, they break and the reagents mix, producing heat. The pad can be reused by placing it in boiling water for 10–15 minutes, which redissolves the sodium acetate trihydrate in the contained water and recreates a supersaturated solution. Once the pad has returned to room temperature it can be triggered again. Triggering the pad before it has reached room temperature results in the pad reaching a lower peak temperature, as compared to waiting until it had completely cooled.
