The 3C effect of Ice Power Cold Gel and Creme on muscle pain:
1. Cooling
- Ice Power Cold Gel has an optimal combination of menthol and ethanol
- This unique combination decreases the skin temperature approximately 5-7 degrees
The effect of Ice Power Cold Gel on the skin temperature
Change of the skin temperature after applying Ice Power Cold Gel*
Several thermographic studies show that Ice Power Cold Gel decreases skin temperature by 5-7°C. The physical cooling effect of menthol and ethanol is longer than with traditional cold therapy and therefore pain relief is more effective.
2.Controlling
- Affects to pain sensory nerves and pain system by decreasing the skin temperature
- Decreasing the skin temperature and cooling effect activates the TRPM8 receptor
- The TRPM8 receptor belongs to the group of thermoregulation receptors through which the pain signaling and pain sensation is affected.
Pain and temperature information travelling to the spinal cord and the brain
Cool and menthol sensitive receptor TRPM8 belongs to the group of thermoregulation receptors which affects pain sensation and signaling. Menthol decreases the skin temperature which activates the TRPM8 receptor. TRPM8 receptors covers 15 % of all pain sensitive receptors.
Pain and temperature information is transmitted to the central nervous system, spinal cord and brain via small nerve fibres. For example, tissue damage activates the nociceptors to send signals by peripheral nerves through the spinal cord to the brain.
Ice Power Cold Gel decreases the skin temperature which activates the thermoreceptors (TRPM8 reseptors) to transmit the sensation of cold via the same nerve fibers as the nociceptors bring pain signals. After the afferent information has been processed in the spinal cord and in the brain, pain becomes more controlled.
3. Circulation
- The cooling effect of Ice Power Cold Gel first decreases the blood circulation. Then after 15 min the blood circulation starts to increase
- Due to the increase of the blood circulation the muscles relax. The increase of the blood circulation supports the self-healing system and enhances the recovery
