Medi-Paks act on the local injury by controlling blood flow to that area. Pain is usually localised. Responders in the body receive messages from traumatised areas and send messages to the brain which register an injury. Drugs, attempt to mask this pain, however once in the blood stream are not localised and do not directly treat the pain or speed recovery. Medi-Paks used cold temporary numb nerve endings (receptors) at the injury and causes the body to produce endorphin, part of the bodies own pain management system. A Hot Medi-Pak will increase blood flow, increasing oxygen and blood nutrients to the affected area. Medi-Paks used hot are a relaxant and generate a sense of well-being. Heat is positive energy.
A speedy recovery with Medi-Pak.Following an injury, blood vessels rupture and cause blood to pump freely (hemorrhaging) and form pockets under the skin resulting in bruising and swelling (edema) at the injury site. Bruising and swelling puts extra pressure on the surrounding area and causes pain and restricted movement.
Application of a cold Medi-Pak immediately following an injury restricts blood flow to the affected area and allows the delicate blood vessels time to repair. Doctors recommend Cold Medi-Paks be applied for 20 minutes and removed for 20 minutes for up to the first 48 hours following an injury.
The same Medi-Pak may be used hot after the first 48 hours, to increase blood flow to the injured area and increase the supply of essential nutrients to aid the rebuilding of damaged tissue.
