Ice Therapy helps in the transfer of oxygen to your muscle tissue and thus helps your body repair any damage. Your Physio will recommend a suitable time, placement and duration for Ice Therapy.

How ice therapy reduces sciatica pain

When you use ice therapy, the following changes occur in your sore tissues:

Lessens pain. Cold therapy reduces pain by decreasing the conduction of nerves of the skin.

Numbs the area. The reduction in tissue temperature causes a numbing effect due to the constriction of blood vessels and a decrease in blood flow.

Reduces muscle spasm. Cold therapy decreases muscle spasm, which usually creates pain, by cooling the muscle fibers.

Decreases inflammation. Lowering the tissue temperature causes a decrease in tissue metabolism and oxygen intake, reducing the overall inflammatory process.

Prevents swelling. Reduction in inflammation results in decreased fluid collection and swelling.

Ice therapy can provide effective pain relief when used in acute conditions and may also help prevent the need to take pain-relieving medications.
