Thermotherapy: How do heat and cold relieve dark circles, migraines and eye fatigue?

Thermotherapy, which involves applying heat or cold to certain areas of the body, is a very effective natural method for relieving tension and boosting well-being.

The term “thermotherapy” used to refer solely to the use of heat for therapeutic purposes. Today, it is commonly used to encompass two complementary approaches: heat and cold . This term is used to describe hot thermotherapy for the relaxing benefits of heat, and cryotherapy for the decongestant effects of cold. This duo forms a powerful natural method for relieving tension, stimulating circulation, and revitalizing the eyes.

For the eye area, it offers surprising benefits, particularly for relieving dark circles, migraines and eye fatigue.

Cold: an anti-inflammatory ally

Applying a cold spring to your eyes reduces swelling and decongests bags. The cold constricts blood vessels, reduces inflammation, and reduces dark circles. It's perfect after a short night or a stressful day.

Heat: a muscle relaxant

Heat, meanwhile, relaxes the muscles around the eyes and soothes nervous tension that causes headaches and migraines. It also promotes blood circulation, which can revitalize dull, tired skin.

Alternating hot and cold: a winning duo

Alternating the two heat therapies stimulates microcirculation and helps eliminate toxins. This back-and-forth between hot and cold is ideal for revitalizing the eyes and reducing feelings of eye fatigue.

Reusable gel patches or masks, which go from freezer to microwave in seconds, make this practice accessible at home. Just a few minutes a day is all it takes to feel the difference!
