Geographically, Asia-Pacific (APAC) hot and cold therapy packs market is projected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This will be due to the growing geriatric population, increasing prevalence of orthopedic diseases, rising healthcare expenditure, and surging casing of sports injuries and road accidents in APAC.
