1. Pinook USA is an Orlando-based company noted for its robotic back massager, the WheeMe robot, as
well as its variety of non-toxic and reusable heating pads. The pads featured by Pinook USA are made
to alleviate pain and tension in the neck, shoulder, head, and back. Heat has proven to be especially
beneficial for providing migraine relief.
Heat, when applied to the head or neck, acts to relax the muscles, thereby reducing inflammation and
promoting blood flow. Because heat serves to dilate the blood vessels, it also directs more nutrients and
oxygen to the affected area. As a result, the pain starts to subside and goes away in a reasonably short
period of time.
Heat has also been proven to be beneficial for muscles that become stiff or tense. Thermotherapy is
helpful in treating a number of conditions besides headaches, including neck pain, lower back pain,
arthritis, shoulder discomfort, and stomach cramps.
