Thermo Therapy

We Provide Personal care and Undivided attention with a Professional Approach!

Thermotherapy is a type of medical approach involving the application to the body of any agent that raises tissue temperature. Blood flow, tissue metabolism, and connective tissue extensibility are all enhanced with the help of this therapy. By delivering protein, nutrients, and oxygen to the site of damage, increased blood flow aids in tissue recovery. The use of heat to enlarge blood vessels and improve blood flow to the skin makes thermotherapy most frequently used for treating wounds or relieving pain, although it may also have other applications or medicinal advantages.

When is the Thermotherapy done?

If a patient exhibits the following symptoms, their eligibility for thermotherapy treatment is validated.

  • A patient who is suffering from joint or muscular pain.
  • A patient who exhibits fibromyalgia symptoms.
  • Heat therapy is regarded as an acceptable kind of treatment for the patient with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
  • A patient who has muscular spasms in various body regions.

Effects of Thermotherapy

A desired biological reaction is induced by changing the tissue temperature of the targeted location during thermotherapy. The skin’s/soft tissue’s rise in temperature causes the:

  • Vasodilatation, which results in an increase in the blood flow.
  • Increases the intake of oxygen, which accelerates tissue repair.
  • Increases the extensibility of the tissue.
  • Enhances smooth muscle contraction
  • The metabolic rate is increased.
  • Reduces the pain caused by arthritis.
