Hot & Cold Pack

Sometimes the simplest treatments can provide the most immediate relief. Hot and cold therapy has been used for centuries to manage pain, reduce swelling, and promote healing, but knowing when and how to apply these therapies correctly can make the difference between temporary relief and meaningful recovery. Whether you’re dealing with acute injuries or chronic pain conditions, therapeutic temperature application can be a valuable part of your treatment plan.

Our hot and cold therapy protocols at Manipal Rehabilitation Centre go beyond basic ice packs and heating pads. Our experienced physiotherapists understand the science behind thermal therapy and know exactly how to integrate these treatments with your comprehensive rehabilitation program. We use professional-grade equipment and evidence-based protocols to ensure you receive maximum benefit from each session, whether you need pain relief, reduced inflammation, or improved circulation.

Your thermal therapy session will be customized based on your specific condition and treatment goals. Cold therapy typically involves controlled application of ice packs or cold compression to reduce inflammation and numb pain, while heat therapy uses warm packs or paraffin treatments to relax muscles and improve circulation. Your therapist will monitor your skin response and adjust temperature and duration accordingly. Many patients experience immediate relief during treatment, and we’ll teach you safe techniques for continuing thermal therapy at home as part of your self-care routine.
