Heat vs Ice: When to use what?

PetAbility Podcast

Pet owners constantly ask Cathy and Chris if they should apply heat or ice to their animal. Listen as Chris warms you up to using heat while Cathy tells chilling tales of using ice. They cover not only when to use each thermal agent (it can be a bit tricky), but also how it works in the body physiologically, what to use to heat or cool (commercial or homemade), how long to apply, precautions or contraindications, and suggestions for best pet buy-in. When you know how to properly use heat or ice, you will quickly realize how empowering, safe, and simple it is.
