What is Syntholkine Large Heating Patches used for?
Back pain, also known as dorsalgia, lumbago or even kidney pain, is a common complaint affecting the region of the back from the lower neck to the pelvis.
Back pain is very common: 80% of French people will experience back pain at least once in their lives. Most often, back pain has a mechanical origin: muscular contractures, the after-effects of trauma or osteoarthritis.
A "false" movement (rotation, flexion, straightening, upward movement of the arms, a fall, carrying heavy loads without precautions, etc.) during physical activity, remaining immobile in a bad position (long car journey, prolonged work on a computer, etc.) or repetitive movements explain back pain.
Other factors can also contribute to back pain, such as excess weight, lack of physical activity or stress.
Your daily life and sporting activities can sometimes be the cause of muscular pain. You're looking for an effective, comfortable product that provides long-lasting relief at any time of day.
TheSyntholKiné Extended Area Warming Patch from Glaxo Smith Kline Laboratories is an effective solution for rapid relief of muscular pain in the back (upper and lower back), shoulders and nape of the neck, in adults and children aged 12 and over:
- They have been designed to relieve muscular pain using heat ( thermotherapy), an effective and natural solution regularly used by physiotherapists.
- Long-lasting action: for 8 hours, they diffuse gentle, constant therapeutic heat deep down, providing effective relief from muscular pain.
- Fast-acting: the patch starts to heat up after just a few minutes.
Comfortable and supple, SyntholKiné Warming Patches for Extended Areas have been designed to fit the shape of your body perfectly and follow your movements. What's more, they're easy to apply and remove. Discreet and odorless, you feel relieved while remaining active. Tight muscles are relaxed, pain soothed.
How Heated Patches work: The patches contain heating agents (iron, activated charcoal, water, etc.) which generate heat on contact with air. The diffusion of heat increases blood flow, improves the supply of oxygen and essential nutrients, and facilitates the elimination of toxins. This therapeutic heat is diffused continuously for 8 hours to relieve cramps, tense muscles and aches. You feel soothed and relaxed. The patches diffuse heat only: no substance enters the body.

Our orthopaedic pharmacist's advice
Treating traumatic, joint, tendon and arthritic pain
Trauma, joint, tendon and arthritic pain (contusion, blow, shock, stretch, sprain, tendinitis, dislocation, arthritis) is treated in 3 steps:
- Cryotherapy 3 times a day with Therm cool cold sprayor Thera-pearl cold pack (apply for 15 to 20 minutes)
- Relieve pain and inflammation with Therm-cool pain-relieving gel, applied by massaging lightly without penetrating.
- Maintain-Immobilize with a splint, orthosis, ankle brace, knee brace, etc.
These pathologies are characterized by pain, edema, swelling, hematoma and inflammation.
Cold therapy, applied as soon as possible after trauma, has a vasoconstrictive effect that inhibits pain (analgesic), reduces effusion (anti-inflammatory), decreases swelling (anti-edematous), and reduces bleeding (anti-hemorrhagic).
Combating muscular pain, osteoarthritis
Treatment of muscular pain, osteoarthritis (backache, lumbago, osteoarthritis, contractures, muscle soreness) is a 3-step process:
