Hot water bottle novo

Hot water bottle - boca za vruću vodu. Novo. Saljem tiskom. ''When the pang of pain strikes, whether it be muscular twinges in your back or neck, belly ache or period cramps, it’s only natural to seek relief. Some may reach for the painkillers, while others will try alternatives – or both. Either way, there is a trusty comfort that’s been around for centuries and is backed by science: the hot water bottle. The soothing effect of a warming device has been acknowledged since they were first used in the 16th century, but it wasn’t until 2006 that we knew the reason why hot water bottles could help relieve “internal pain”. That year, scientists at University College London found that applying heat of more than 40C to the skin where the ache is felt activates heat receptors and blocks the body’s ability to detect pain. What were once stoneware vessels or metal pans for warming beds in pre-central heating winters evolved into rubber hot water bottles that have been available since the early 1900s. Today, they come in all shapes and sizes and with an array of soft, beautifully stylish covers. All are designed for both comfort and warmth.''
