Heat therapy is a simplistic form of chiropractic treatment which has been proven to have lasting benefits. This is especially true for those looking to decrease muscle spasms or increase range of motion. It has also been shown to improve general flexibility.
What Is Heat Therapy & How Does It Work?
During this chiropractic treatment, hot moist packs are applied to your back and spine. The warmth aids in opening up your blood vessels, enabling them to function more efficiently. Heat therapy helps to increase blood flow which supplies oxygen and vital nutrients to the effected tissue.
