 Wild
Tiger Balm is an 'over-the-counter' medicine for joint/muscle pain relief.
Originating from the Far East, Tiger Balm has recently become more recognised in
the western world for its analgesic, deep heat/cold properties. It is very
similar to deep heat/deep freeze in that it gives you the sensation of warmth
followed by cold - ideal to massage into painful tendons.
Elasticated Bandages
are a very efficient way to strap up injuries such as ankle sprains. In
simple terms, they are much like tubi-grip but allow you to be more specific
with their positioning for optimum joint support. Each roll comes equipped with
its own set of clips to hold the bandage firmly in place. Please note that some
of these rolls (depending on brand) may contain latex so please be aware if you
have any such allergies.
Hot/Cold Packs are
very useful for thermal therapy. Contrasting hot and cold can significantly
reduce chronic pain and abnormal sensations in old injuries. Cold therapy can
assist to reduce swelling whilst hot therapy alone can promote soft tissue
healing. This pack can be cooled in the freezer or warmed up in hot water. It
comes with an insulated glove. Please ensure your sensation has been tested
prior to purchasing one of these.
Joint Supports are
available in different sizes and variety. Joints include wrist, elbow, ankle and
knee. The major advantage of any kind of joint support is that its likelihood of
moving during activity is low and hence maintaining good support throughout. The
disadvantage to supports is that they are not specific to your particular joint
injury - they are very generalised and cannot offer the specificity that elastic
bandages can.
