Can weighted heating pads help with foot pain?
Asked 4 years ago
I usually use normal heating pads for any pain I have in my feet, and they normally work really well. I've seen that you can also buy weighted heating pads. Is there much of a difference? Are weighted heating pads good for your feet at all?

Heating pads are essential for comforting tired muscles and treating chronic pain. Heat therapy is highly recommended for muscle spasms, joint pain, and stiffness. Weighted heating pads take heat therapy to another level by adding pressure or weight, which may provide instant relief from pain and muscle stiffness from injuries or chronic conditions. Additionally, it also provides gentle compression that relaxes your muscles.
