Headaches can be diminished by applying cold compresses against the forehead, neck or nape. These areas contain blood vessels that are close to the skin and they tighten when cooled.
Place your Furr Buddy in the freezer inside a plastic bag for 2 to 3 hours and then use it to reduce the blood flow in the forehead and reduce the discomfort.
Benefits of implementing cold therapy in other types of injuries:
The benefits of applying cold on an injury are plenty, due to its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect. When cold is applied over the injured area, this gets “numb”, which produces a soothing reaction.
This is why some of its main benefits are:
- Reducing swelling
- Soothing pain
- Improving muscular recovery
- Analgesic effect
- Blood circulation improvement
- Decreasing temperature
