Heat Therapy
Advanced Heat Therapy for Pain Relief & Muscle RelaxationThermotherapy, also known as Heat Therapy, is a physiotherapy treatment that uses controlled heat to reduce pain, relax muscles, improve circulation, and enhance tissue healing. Heat therapy is commonly used to treat muscle stiffness, joint pain, chronic injuries, and mobility restrictions.
Thermotherapy involves applying heat to the body using various therapeutic methods such as Hot Packs, Heat Wraps, Wax Therapy, Steam Therapy, Warm Towels, Hydrotherapy, and Ultrasound Heat Therapy.
The heat penetrates the tissues and helps increase blood circulation, relax tight muscles, reduce stiffness, improve oxygen supply, and enhance tissue healing. Superficial heat mainly affects tissues near the surface, while deeper heating methods can target muscles and joints more effectively.
