Pain Relief - Magic Heat Packs

Pain can usually be classified as dull or sharp, mild or intense. Severe pain usually serves as a early warning that something is not right in the body and you shouldn't neglect it. Get a clear medical diagnosis. No matter how you describe your pain, you want it to go away-and fast. Take proactive action.

Suggested steps you can take ...

Take time for a check-up:

• Make an appointment with your doctor to find out if your pain is being caused by a treatable condition
• Give acupuncture a try
• Block pain signals by applying to the painful area (up to four times a day) an ointment that contains capsicum, a substance found in cayenne peppers
• Take part in a prescribed exercise program to boost the production of your body's natural painkillers

"At night I boil up three Heat Packs to ease my back pain and allow me to get to sleep. During the night, if I wake with the pain, I trigger off two Packs and have instant heat. It's wonderful! During the day, I trigger off a third Heat Pack when the pain returns. It is a system that works well and can be of great benefit for anyone with pain." - Jennifer, Victoria, Australia
