Neck ice wraps
Cold therapy wrap is simple and comfortable to use. It lowers the skin temperature, which helps to constrict (narrow) the blood vessels. Cold therapy decreases the metabolic rate of the injured tissues. It slows the body's release of chemicals that dilate the blood vessels (vasodilation), which implies a tremendous decrease in blood flow to the area. Cold therapy wrap also numbs the inured tissues and reduces muscle spasm, both of which help to relieve pain.
Unexpected acute injuries like a sprained ankle, muscle tear, bruise or inflammation may be treated with cold therapy as soon as possible following the injury.
