How to manage and treat muscular pain
Common causes of muscle pain include tension, overuse and minor injuries. This means that the muscle pain is usually localised, affecting a particular area.
Deep Heat creams, sprays or patches can be used to treat and manage muscle pain. Deep Heat Patches work by increasing blood flow to the affected area providing more oxygen and nutrients to aid the healing process and helps restore movement. If you’re experiencing overall or ongoing muscle aches, we recommend contacting your health professional.
