What is an ideal heat therapy like?
The most effective heat therapy products are the ones that can maintain their heat at the proper temperature. "Warm" is the proper temperature. The ideal therapy temperature is around 40~45°C. Patients should not have their heat source be hot to the point of burning the skin. The desired effect is for the heat to penetrate down into the muscles. Simply increasing the temperature of the skin will do little to decrease discomfort.
