DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Hot and Cold Therapy Packs Market 2019-2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Increase in the number of sports-related injuries
Along with the rising participation in sports, the number of sports-related injuries is increasing. Sports-related injuries may involve ligaments, muscle, or bone, with stress fractures, Tennis/golf elbow (lateral/medial epicondylitis), strains, sprains, little league elbow or shoulder, jumper's knee (patellar tendonitis), shin splints, fractures, back injuries, spondylolysis, and concussion are different types of sports-related injuries.
Sports injuries are often treated with hot and cold therapy packs as these can provide immediate relief and help in returning to the game early. Ice packs are ideal for providing relief to larger areas of swelling, pain, or spasms. This increase in demand will lead to the expansion of the global hot and cold therapy packs market at a CAGR of almost 8% during the forecast period.
The growing use of non-invasive and non-addictive pain relief therapies
Non-invasive techniques and therapies are preferred as non-invasive therapies do not require any hospital stays, do not involve invasive scars, and are affordable. Certain pain relief therapies can become addictive, such as the use of opioids for pain management.
Apart from causing addiction or dependence, opioids lead to drowsiness, dizziness, respiratory depression, and persistent constipation. Hence, non-addictive pain relief therapies are safer than addictive pain relief therapies and are equally effective. This development is expected to have a positive impact on the overall market growth.
