There is a local vaso-constriction (in the skin and muscles) that has the effect of reducing inflammation, while cooling acts to reduce pain.
In the second phase, the temperature stabilizes, the body reacts by vasodilation by increasing the blood flow to the muscles that present the phenomenon of hypothermia.
In the third phase, the increased local circulation of the blood (hyperaemia) in the affected areas determines the increase of the metabolism and as a result the muscular tension decrease.
