Question
I''ve heard recentlymaybe incorrectly that heat is no longer validated as a recovery tool for sports injuries. Also, are the high pressure water jets the oval stainless steel tubs still used for recoveries? I remember in high school how one used on my foot made it tingle for a couple of hours and completely healed my soccer injury. Hope this helps.

Answer

Dear Bruce:

Thank you for your inquiry.  Unfortunately, we are not aware of any recent recommendations of cold vs hot whirlpool therapy.  From experience, we can tell you that both methods are acceptable and beneficial.  Sore muscles and joints, for example, are best treated with hot water therapy. Pulled muscles, on the other hand, are best treated with cold water for up to 48 hours.
