| Research Abstract |
We applied hot compresses to the backs of healthy adult women’s for 10 min, after which we measured both skin temperature and skin blood flow. The application of hot compresses resulted in increased skin temperature on the back, around the back, and on the hands, as well as increased skin blood flow in the fingertips. Skin temperature on the hands increased by approximately 1°C, even at 30 min after application of hot compresses, and subjects were able to feel the warmth in their hands. In addition, neurons projecting from the stellate ganglia to the palmar pad were confirmed in rats. Our results suggest that application of a hot compress to the back, warms not only their back, but also their hands.
