The list of potentially dangerous side effects associated with the overuse of prescription and OTC pain relief drugs is growing, but what alternatives do consumers have?

Bruder Healthcare Company has introduced a new line of OTC products that deliver doctor recommended pain relief treatments without the risk of side effects or interference with prescription or OTC drugs. New THERMALON™ Microwave Activated Moist Heat Wraps and Sleeves represent a safe and easy way for consumers to reduce their total dependence on drugs for pain relief.

When microwaved for a minute, reusable THERMALON™ Microwave Activated Moist Heat Wraps and Sleeves safely deliver a moist heat therapy treatment. Moist heat penetrates deep quickly to increase blood flow, relax tight sore muscles and reduce painful inflammation. Medical professionals use moist heat treatments in clinics to relieve pain … now consumers can apply these same treatments safely and conveniently at home. The patented Orthobeads™ in THERMALON™ are self-hydrating and are specially formulated to remain odor and bacteria free. Adding water is never necessary. Anatomical designs make application easy while their portability allows normal activity during a recommended twenty-minute treatment. The unique pull-on Sleeves can also be used when Cold Therapy is prescribed or preferred. Use while exercising, pre or post sports and outdoor activities or before retiring. The sleeves help make prescribed exercises easier, more effective and far less painful. Economical to use, the soft and conformable wraps and sleeves are washable and feature a full one-year warranty.

Newly introduced HTA (Heat Therapy Activated) Pain Relief Spray is an all-natural, clinically proven topical analgesic specifically formulated for use with heat therapy. Popular pain relief ointments and patches in stores today are harsh, often smelly counter-irritants containing the warning “do not bandage or use with a heating pad”. HTA Pain Relief Spray is different … it has been formulated to enhance the proven effectiveness of medically recommended heat therapy. The natural extracts in HTA, when activated by heat, penetrate directly to the source of the pain. There is no waiting, no odor, no staining! HTA comes in an easy-to-use spray applicator.

Consumers now have a two new drug free alternatives to help manage their pain. With THERMALON™ and HTA they can use fewer pills; avoid dangerous electric wires, offensive odors, greasy ointments and expensive disposable patches.
