The accompanying symptoms such as burning, tingling, itching or tightness can be relieved with Herpotherm® from the very first application.

Herpotherm® works solely by concentrated heat and is thus completely free from chemicals. It is presumed that the heat generated by Herpotherm®, ranging around 51°C, has a positive effect on the release of histamine and degradation enzymes and thus curbs the inflammatory reaction.
- Can prevent the development of cold sore blisters completely, if applied early enough
- If applied later, the severity of symptoms may be lessened, or they may fade sooner
The application of concentrated heat (local hyperthermia) is a physical mode of action based on a brief, concentrated application of heat to a small, limited area of skin. Even a localised pulse of heat may be sufficient to relieve symptoms such as itching, burning, tingling or tightness.
