moist heat pack is useful for chronic pains
Applying heat therapy on neck region can be a relatively inexpensive and convenient way to get some relief.....
also consult physiotherapist for multiple sessions
yes it z good for muscle stiffness nd pain
you can use simple heating method by dipping towel in normal warm water and by covering the area of neck. Don't allow immediate contact with air just after heating.
only heating is not working. You should also do some exercise and soft tissue release. You should go nearby physiotherapists for sessions
Not only heating pad is good
also work on muscle strengthening exercises
Yes, it works
Nut apply it for only 10 minutes, not more than that.
yes it is good,but also consult Physiotherapist for better evaluation and treatment.
Not only heating will give 100 % effect on this problem. You father need well-designed exercise plan by physiotherapist.
