What are the key forces behind the heating pad market’s growth in recent years?
The increasing incidence of sports injuries is expected to propel the growth of the heating pad market going forward. Sports injuries are injuries that occur during athletic activities, exercise, or sports. Sports injuries occur due to overuse, improper technique, insufficient warm-up or stretching, and collisions with other players or objects. Heating pads help relieve sports injuries by increasing blood flow to the affected area, reducing muscle stiffness, alleviating pain, and promoting faster tissue and muscle healing. For instance, in July 2024, according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, an Australia-based Government department, in 2021–22, sports involving wheels and different types of football led to the highest number of injury hospitalisations. Cycling accounted for around 8,600 cases, followed by Australian rules football (4,300), roller sports (4,100), and wheeled motor sports (3,800). Therefore, the increasing incidence of sports injuries is driving the growth of the heating pad market.
