My Chiropractor told me that to about dry heat! The dry heat also thickens your blood as well. When your blood gets thick like that it can cause a heart attack and clots, I know this first hand as I had a heart attack and my heart doctor told me no more dry heating pads. I now use ice for 20 minutes and then use moist warm towls after that.
