Question
I have several bad disks in my back, c2-c3, t3, and l4-l5, and l5-s1 are the worst. I also suffered the side effect of the nsaid, naproxen. Extreme hypertension, 270/170. I take 23-25 pills a day for the problems. Do you know of any studies that whirlpool therapy might help reduce the pain level and or also the BP?
Answer
Dear Mike,
Thank you for the inquiry. Whirlpool therapy is good when it is cold. Do not use hot whirlpools. The cold therapy whirlpools are very soothing and relaxing and helps with BP. If you have high BP, do not use Hot therapy whirlpools. Many athletics use cold/ice therapy pools to relax muscles and pain.
Respectfully,
MSEC
