Electric Heating Pads
An electric heating pad is a device that uses electricity to generate heat and is typically used to provide warmth and comfort to sore muscles or to alleviate pain. These pads come in various sizes and shapes, with different levels of heating intensity and settings to accommodate various body parts and individual preferences.
Heat in a variety of forms is associated with reducing pain, increasing local blood flow for enhanced healing, and creating a sense of general well-being. Further, the quick heating device can be used to help relieve muscle cramping and activity related soreness. Electric heating pads may be dry or moist, the latter generating its own wetness by drawing moisture from the air.
The convenience of the "plug-in and turn-on" makes heat therapy accessible when traveling. Used for pain treatment or general comfort, electric heating pads come in a variety of shapes and sizes for use on different body locations to maximize treatment of the involved area.
