Icing to recover from injuries is a flawed practice according to recent research



Hi guys! Do not use Ice to heal injuries. There are much better options for pain relief that are good for healing injuries. New research points to adverse effects due to use of icing on injuries, such as, it blocks fine channels in the body, increases swelling, prevents removal of dead tissues and slows down flow of nutrients to the injured area. It, therefore, takes longer for the injury to heal and recover. Heat is far better for joint pain treatment where it improves the circulation, relaxes local tissues and a good aid to relieve join pain.
