Section 4


Benefits of heat therapy

� Heat therapy has been used as an effective natural remedy for centuries

� Many episodes of pain come from muscle exertion or strain, which creates tension

in the muscles and soft tissues. This tension can constrict circulation, sending pain

signals to the brain

� Heat application eases pain by:

� Dilating the blood vessels surrounding the painful area. Increased blood flow

provides additional oxygen & nutrients to help heal the damaged muscle tissue

� Stimulating sensation in the skin and therefore decreasing the pain signals

being transmitted to the brain

� Increasing the flexibility (and decreasing painful stiffness) of soft tissues

surrounding the injured area, including muscles and connective tissue

� General uses of heat packs:

� Physiotherapy, overuse injuries, chronic injuries, arthritis, menstrual pain &

cramps, growing pains, back / neck ache or stiffness, staying warm, thawing

frozen pipes, warming bottles and batteries

neck/shoulders, menstrual cramps, arthritis, muscle damage

� Physiotherapy – guaranteed temperature and warming time, can be applied by

nursing staff at patient’s bedside even when physiotherapist is away

� Maternity – heat applied to the sides of the breast helps start the flow of milk in

new mothers. Can also relieve lower back pain during labour

� Pediatrics – can be used as emergency heat source during incubator transport

� Geriatrics – can warm patients with no risk of burns or long-term over-heating

� Recovery Room - treats hypothermia associated with anaesthesia and IV infusion,

can help with infusing viscous IVs

� Chemotherapy – can help bring up veins and warm up patient

� Staff – can be used by staff to treat minor ailments without having to stop work

How do heat packs generate heat?

� Water is a liquid above 0oC and becomes a solid (ice) below 0oC

� The salt solution used in heat packs is a liquid above 54oC and crystalises to

become a solid below 54oC

� However, the solution is very stable as a liquid and can be ‘supercooled’ easily as

a liquid so that it remains a liquid at room temperature (around 25oC), just like in a

Kwikheat warmer ready to be used

� Tiny crystals of solid salt form in microscopic cracks on the surface of the metal

disc inside the heat pack

� When the disk is flexed these crystals are pushed out into the liquid

� The crystals act as ‘nucleation centres’, causing all the surrounding salt molecules

in liquid form to join the crystal lattice until everything has solidified

� The process of crystalisation releases heat, raising the temperature of the salt to

54oC

� Placing the heat pack in boiling water melts the salt crystals into liquid form again –

as long as all the crystals have dissolved, the liquid will be stable again
