Heat has been a great source of help in rehabilitation for many reasons. The therapeutic effects of heat can assist in many healing processes including decreasing the stiffness in joints, reducing pain, and lowering inflammation in joints.

Many illnesses can be better maintained with the help of heat; such as Reynaud’s phenomenon, Rheumatoid arthritis, and arthritis. Our heated apparel can be useful for chiropractic treatments and physical therapy patients.

Arthritis:

Arthritis causes a large amount of pain, swelling, and stiffness in joints. Those who suffer from arthritis pain can slip on an ActiVHeat® warming glove or glove liner which supplies heat evenly over your hands and fingers. These products can be used when indoors or outdoors to help reduce the pain and swelling associated with this condition.

Raynaud’s Syndrome:

Reynaud’s phenomenon can cause numbness and coldness in your fingers, toes, nose and ears.It can also cause discoloration of the skin and once heat is applied it can help to bring blood flow back to normal which will turn skin back to its regular color. It is important that those suffering from this condition avoid being outside when the weather is cold. If one must be outside, wearing ActiVHeat’s heated sock liners and heated gloves can help reduce the causes of Reynaud’s phenomenon.

Peripheral Neuropathy:

Nerve damage is what is known as Peripheral Neuropathy. This can cause numbness or pain in your hands and feet and your body lacks feelings of sensation. Applying heat can help to ease the painful symptoms brought on by this condition. ActiVHeat’s heated gloves and sock liners are a great way to keep your extremities heated to reduce the pain associated with Peripheral Neuropathy.

Osteoporosis:

Heat can be effective for relieving pain associated with Osteoporosis. When bone loss occurs within your body, you are more likely to fracture or injury your bones. When it’s cold out, you are more likely to shiver and tense up from the cruel weather conditions. Don’t allow your body to tense up in cold weather – stay warm with ActiVHeat’s heated clothing. The heat from our clothing line will also help to ease any pain that is linked to Osteoporosis.

Labor Intensive Work:

Labor intensive work outdoors can cause back pain that couldbe so painful that you are missing days at work. By wearing ActiVHeat® battery heated jackets, you can apply warmth to your body so that it helps to loosen your muscles and keep you warm so that you are not shaking from being cold – which can cause extreme back pain from muscle constriction.
