What is the thermal package?
The thermal package is a flexible bag containing special chemicals with heat possession. The use of one on tense muscles or broken bones is considered to be thermal therapy, unlike the placement of an ice pack on a sprained ankle or a head injury for cold therapy. The heat tends to allow muscle tissue to expand and relax, so the coach or physiotherapist can use the thermal package immediately after injury or wait until the initial swelling does not reduce. This may also benefit the patient suffering from Bell's polio or other facial diseases. Other typical uses of these items are personal warming of the hands, preparing for diving and treatment of hypothermia. They can also be found in food containers designed to transport casserole meals or other warm meals. The gel can be placed in a microphonurowave oven and heats up to several hundred degrees, although human skin should not be exposed to temperatures above 140 degrees Fahrenheit. After warming up geLU can be carefully applied to the affected area. It can be reopen as needed and a protective towel should be placed between the patient and the package itself. This form of thermal package can also be frozen and used for cold therapy.
Another type uses science in the form of a supercised solution. The bag itself contains a solution of sodium acetate, special forms of salt. The salt solution is saturated, which means that it actually has more salt molecules than it can maintain in a stable liquid form. The user presses the "trigger" made of stainless steel, causing one additional sodium molecule to start a chain reaction. Once the solution begins to solidify, the heat is generated. This type of thermal package can reach 130 ° Rees Fahrenheit during the reaction, but not much higher. After a few hours, the reaction stops and the heat disperses. Cooking a package for a few minutes will return the solution back to your saturatedHim state so that the whole process can start again.
Another type of thermal therapeutic package relies on oxygen and the heat generation process. This type is kept in a closed package until it is necessary. The user opens the package and removes the protection belt on the bag adhesive side. After applying the patch directly to the stiff muscle, the user should feel a pleasant feeling of warming. The thermal package itself contains a special mixture of iron administration and other chemicals. As oxygen from the outer package penetrates, iron begins to oxidize or rust. One side effect of oxidation is thermal energy and therefore the package is heated. Finally, oxygen and iron will stop responding, but the result is stable heat without the need for electricity or other external sources.
