The document discusses the different types of UVR (UVA, UVB, UVC), their effects on the skin like sunburn, tanning, and skin cancer. It also summarizes therapeutic uses of UVR for various skin conditions like psoriasis, acne, and wounds. Determining the minimal erythemal dose (MED) through a skin test is described as the basis for calculating safe UVR dosages for patients.
Contrast bath therapy involves soaking an injured area in alternating hot and cold water baths to increase blood flow and decrease joint stiffness. The temperature changes from hot to cold and back again produce a "pumping effect" that helps remove swelling through improved venous and lymphatic drainage. A full contrast bath treatment consists of soaking in warm water for 10 minutes, cold water for 1 minute, repeated three times, ending with warm water. Contrast baths can help relieve pain, stiffness and swelling through induced vasodilation and vasoconstriction of blood vessels.
A technique which uses water as a therapeutic modality. This therapy is usually used by Physiotherapist for healing wound, edema drainage, improving balance and posture and decreasing pain.
This document discusses interferential therapy (IFT), a type of electrical stimulation treatment. IFT involves applying two medium frequency currents to generate a low frequency interference current in the tissues for therapeutic effects. It provides pain relief and motor stimulation while avoiding skin irritation experienced with other currents. IFT is indicated for various painful conditions and edema and uses specific frequencies for different treatments, like 1-10Hz rhythmic mode for reducing swelling. Precautions include avoiding direct electrode contact and proper placement to ensure current passes through tissues as intended.
1. A hydro-collator pack is a fabric envelope containing silica gel or bentonite crystal packs that are heated in a hydro-collator unit to provide moist heat therapy.
2. The hydro-collator unit maintains water at 70-80°C to heat the packs for 30-40 minutes of moist heat application.
3. When applied with adequate toweling insulation, hydro-collator packs provide penetrating heat therapy above 75°C without raising skin temperature excessively, helping to reduce pain, muscle spasm, and inflammation.
Ultraviolet radiation covers a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum between visible light and X-rays. It is divided into UVA, UVB, and UVC based on wavelength. UV is produced by mercury vapor lamps and fluorescent lamps and can cause both immediate and long term effects on skin like erythema, pigmentation, vitamin D production, and skin cancer. The dosage of UV exposure depends on the lamp output, distance from the skin, exposure time, and individual skin sensitivity. UV therapy is used to treat conditions like psoriasis, acne, and eczema.
Contrast bath therapy involves soaking an injured area in alternating hot and cold water baths to increase blood flow and decrease stiffness and pain. The physiological mechanism is that it induces vasodilation and vasoconstriction through changes in water temperature, pumping edema from the injured area. The procedure involves soaking in warm water for 10 minutes, cold water for 1 minute, repeating warm water for 4 minutes and cold water for 1 minute, ending in warm water for 4 minutes for a total time of 25 minutes. Contrast baths can treat injuries like sprains, strains and bruises by removing edema through changes in blood flow. Certain precautions should be taken for conditions like open wounds, pregnancy and impaired sensation.
Russian current is a medium-frequency current delivered in bursts at 2500 Hz. It produces strong muscle contractions through synchronous motor nerve depolarization. Key characteristics include a carrier frequency of 2500 Hz, burst frequency of 50 Hz, burst duration of 10 ms, and a 10/50/10 training protocol. Russian current is indicated for muscle strengthening, reducing muscle spasm and edema, such as following knee ligament injuries or surgery.
This document discusses galvanic current and its use in stimulating denervated muscles. It defines galvanic current as a direct, unidirectional current that can cause pain due to its unidirectional nature. Interrupted galvanic current is introduced to overcome this by providing regular pauses in stimulation. Stimulating denervated muscles with galvanic current can help limit atrophy and edema until reinnervation occurs. Precautions must be taken when applying galvanic current due to potential dangers like burns or electric shock.
The document discusses microwave diathermy (MWD), including its properties, production, therapeutic effects, indications, contraindications, and precautions. MWD uses electromagnetic waves between 300 MHz to 300 GHz to generate heat in superficial tissues up to 3 cm deep. It can be used to treat pain, muscle spasms, inflammation and other conditions affecting small, superficial areas like joints, muscles, and tendons. Proper application and monitoring are needed to avoid risks such as burns.
Fluidotherapy is a heating modality that uses a stream of heated air to fluidize fine particles like corn cob inside a cabinet. This creates air pockets and bubbles that transmit heat and tactile stimulation to the body part inside. It works by convection to transfer heat from the circulating heated air and particles to increase blood flow and assist with pain relief. The fluidized particles allow limbs to float freely and exercise to be performed inside the cabinet. Research studies have found fluidotherapy may help reduce edema but is not effective for improving hand function in rheumatoid arthritis patients. It also does not provide as much rewarming for mild hypothermia as warm water immersion.
Galvanic current is a low frequency, interrupted direct current with pulse durations over 1ms up to 300ms and frequencies under 50Hz. It was discovered in the 1780s by Luigi Galvani and can cause contraction of denervated muscles through sluggish contractions, stimulation of sensory nerves resulting in pain sensations, and stimulation of motor nerves at high intensities. Therapeutically, galvanic current is used to retard muscle atrophy and substitute for normal muscle contraction in denervated muscles by slowing structural and functional changes like loss of activity and fibrosis through electrical stimulation. It can also be used facially to reduce dullness, fine lines, wrinkles, and improve elasticity and oxygen supply.
The document discusses ultrasound therapy, including its introduction, production, physiological effects, application techniques, methods, indications, and contraindications. Specifically, it explains that ultrasound therapy involves using high-frequency sound waves to treat soft tissue injuries and conditions. It describes how piezoelectric crystals or transducers are used to produce the therapeutic ultrasound and discusses direct contact and indirect immersion and bladder application as methods of delivery. The document also lists common uses of ultrasound therapy such as for soft tissue injuries, sprains, and arthritis, as well as who should avoid it like those with cancer lesions or metal implants.
A motor point is a specific skin area where the targeted muscle is best stimulated with the smallest amount of current amplitude and the shortest pulse duration

The document discusses Mitchell's relaxation technique, which uses diaphragmatic breathing and isotonic muscle contractions based on reciprocal inhibition. It can be used to treat respiratory, orthopedic, post-natal, and psychiatric conditions. The technique promotes relaxation and reduces muscle tension and pain perception. It is effective for pre-labor Braxton Hicks contractions and realigning stress-related postures by moving to a new position and increasing awareness of body position. Mitchell's relaxation technique can also help conditions involving a high tone pelvic floor like painful bladder syndrome.
Shortwave diathermy (SWD) is a therapeutic modality that uses electromagnetic energy to generate deep heat in tissues. It can be delivered continuously or pulsed. The frequency used, type of SWD unit, and water content of tissues affect the pattern of heat produced. SWD has various therapeutic effects like increasing blood flow and accelerating wound healing. It is used to treat conditions like recent injuries, arthritis, and muscle pain and spasm. Proper application of SWD involves preparing the patient, machine, and electrodes to deliver controlled doses of energy to target tissues while avoiding risks like burns or electric shock.
The Faradic Galvanic (FG) test assesses lower motor neuron problems by stimulating muscles with different electric currents. A brief tetanic contraction indicates intact innervation, while a sluggish response suggests denervation. The test involves using faradic current to search for motor points and elicit fast contractions in innervated muscles. Galvanic current then produces slow contractions in denervated muscles. However, the FG test is inaccurate and unreliable, correctly interpreting muscle reactions in only 50% of cases.

1. TENS would be used to manage the pain from osteoarthritis of the knee. Specifically, conventional/high TENS with a high frequency of 40-150 Hz, low intensity current of 10-30 mA, and short pulse duration of up to 50 microseconds would be applied for 30-60 minutes.
2. Conventional TENS works by pre-synaptic inhibition to suppress pain signals to the brain and encourage the body's natural painkillers. It can help control arthritis pain without additional drugs.
3. TENS is a safe and effective first-line treatment for many pain conditions, including osteoarthritis of the knee.
Social stratification is a kind of social differentiation whereby a society groups people into socioeconomic strata, based upon their occupation and income, wealth and social status, or derived power (social and political).
describes the ways that people come to understand societal norms and expectations, to accept society’s
beliefs, and to be aware of societal values. Socialization is not the same as socializing (interacting with
others, like family, friends, and coworkers); to be precise, it is a sociological process that occurs
through socializing. As Danielle’s story illustrates, even the most basic of human activities are learned.
You may be surprised to know that even physical tasks like sitting, standing, and walking had not
automatically developed for Danielle as she grew. And without socialization, Danielle hadn’t learned
about the material culture of her society (the tangible objects a culture uses): for example, she couldn’t
hold a spoon, bounce a ball, or use a chair for sitting. She also hadn’t learned its nonmaterial culture,
such as its beliefs, values, and norms. She had no understanding of the concept of “family,” didn’t know
cultural expectations for using a bathroom for elimination, and had no sense of modesty. Most
importantly, she hadn’t learned to use the symbols that make up language—through which we learn
about who we are, how we fit with other people, and the natural and social worlds in which we live.
This document provides an introduction to basic concepts in sociology and medical sociology. It defines key terms like society, social structure, social institutions, roles, culture, and social change. It describes how sociology studies human relationships and behavior, and how medical sociology examines the social factors that influence health and illness. Examples are given of different types of societies, social institutions, social problems, and more. The role of sociology is to understand how social and cultural factors shape health.
Sociology is the scientific study of social behavior, its origins, development, organization, and institutions. It examines society and social interaction. There are three main theoretical perspectives: structural functionalism, which sees society as a system whose parts work together; social conflict theory, which sees society in terms of class struggles over resources; and symbolic interactionism, which views symbols as the basis of social life. Sociology can be studied at the macro level of broad social phenomena or the micro level of individual interactions. An understanding of sociology is important for health sciences students because health is influenced by sociocultural as well as physical factors.
principle of aerobic exercise physiologyangelickhan2
The document discusses the principles of aerobic and anaerobic exercise. It defines aerobic exercise as exercise that can be performed for a long period of time without becoming breathless, while anaerobic exercise involves high intensity activity for short bursts. The goals of aerobic training include improving endurance, cardiovascular fitness and muscular strength in major muscle groups like calves, quadriceps, hamstrings and gluteals. Anaerobic training aims to improve strength, muscle size, power, and anaerobic metabolism. The document also outlines some of the physiological adaptations that occur with each type of training.

For each population, it describes characteristics of the condition and provides guidance on exercise goals, testing, prescription parameters, and precautions. The key recommendations are to consult a physician, start low intensity and gradually progress exercise, and focus on improving functional capacity, management of risk factors, and quality of life. Chair exercises are recommended for those with limited mobility.
Lec 7 tempreture regulation Physiology of Exerciseangelickhan2
This document summarizes how humans regulate body temperature through balancing heat production and heat loss. It discusses key terms like ectotherms, endotherms, and homeotherms. The body produces heat through metabolism and exercise. It loses heat through radiation, conduction, convection, and evaporation. The hypothalamus acts as the thermostat to maintain core temperature by initiating sweating or shivering responses. Precise measurements of core temperature and calculations are needed to understand heat balance during exercise.
Pulmonary respiration refers to breathing and the exchange of gases in the lungs. During exercise, pulmonary respiration plays a key role in maintaining blood-gas homeostasis by increasing ventilation, gas exchange, and blood flow to the lungs. The conducting zone transports air to the respiratory zone, where gas exchange occurs in alveoli within the lungs.
The document discusses ventilation-perfusion relationships and gas exchange in the lungs and blood. It states that normal gas exchange requires matching of ventilation to blood flow. A mismatch can cause problems with gas exchange. Exercise may slightly impair gas exchange by creating a small ventilation-perfusion inequality due to low ventilation or blood flow. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are transported in the blood, with oxygen binding to hemoglobin and carbon dioxide transforming into bicarbonate.
The document summarizes circulatory responses to exercise. It discusses how the cardiovascular system works to maintain homeostasis by increasing oxygen delivery to active muscles during exercise. This is achieved through two main adjustments: 1) increased cardiac output from higher heart rate and stroke volume, and 2) redistribution of blood flow from inactive organs to active skeletal muscles. The circulatory system plays a key role in transporting oxygen and nutrients to tissues and removing carbon dioxide.
Lec 5a circulati on exercise physiologyangelickhan2
This document summarizes circulatory responses to exercise. It discusses how the cardiovascular system increases oxygen delivery to active muscles during exercise through two adjustments: increased cardiac output from higher heart rate and stroke volume, and redistribution of blood flow from inactive organs to active muscles. The heart is divided into four chambers that pump deoxygenated blood to the lungs and oxygenated blood to the body tissues through separate pulmonary and systemic circuits.
This document discusses different methods of measuring work, power, and energy expenditure during exercise. It describes common units of measurement like joules and watts. Examples are provided for calculating work and power output during activities like weight lifting, stepping on a bench, and cycling. Measuring work and power can provide important information for coaches, athletes, and exercise specialists.
The document discusses the neuroendocrine system, which involves the nervous system and endocrine system working together to control and regulate various functions in the body. It describes the major endocrine glands - the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, adrenal gland, and pancreas. It explains how each gland secretes specific hormones that help regulate processes like metabolism, growth, and electrolyte balance. The concentration of hormones in the blood depends on the rates of secretion from the glands and removal by the liver and kidneys. Hormones act by binding to receptors on target tissues.
The document discusses hormone regulation and action. It summarizes that the hypothalamus controls the anterior and posterior pituitary glands. The anterior pituitary releases hormones that control other endocrine glands like the thyroid. Growth hormone is released from the anterior pituitary and is essential for growth. The thyroid gland releases T3 and T4, which regulate metabolism. Insulin and glucagon regulate blood glucose levels. Testosterone and estrogen are the primary sex hormones. Hormones mobilize fuels like glucose and fatty acids during exercise depending on intensity and duration.
The document discusses homeostasis and biological control systems. It defines homeostasis as maintaining a constant internal environment and steady state as a constant environment that may deviate from normal. Biological control systems use negative feedback to detect changes and activate effectors to correct changes and maintain homeostasis. Examples given include regulating body temperature and blood glucose. Exercise can challenge homeostasis but control systems typically maintain steady state with submaximal exercise in cool environments.
Exercise physiology is the study of how the body responds to physical activity and exercise. It examines how the body's systems adapt both acutely during a single bout of exercise, as well as chronically with long-term exercise training. Physical fitness includes health-related components like cardiovascular endurance, body composition, flexibility, and muscle strength and endurance, as well as performance-related aspects such as power, speed, coordination, balance and agility. Understanding exercise physiology allows one to maximize health benefits, athletic performance, and rehabilitation through exercise.

The Jewish Trinity : Sabbath,Shekinah and Sanctuary 4.pdfJackieSparrow3
we may assume that God created the cosmos to be his great temple, in which he rested after his creative work. Nevertheless, his special revelatory presence did not fill the entire earth yet, since it was his intention that his human vice-regent, whom he installed in the garden sanctuary, would extend worldwide the boundaries of that sanctuary and of God’s presence. Adam, of course, disobeyed this mandate, so that humanity no longer enjoyed God’s presence in the little localized garden. Consequently, the entire earth became infected with sin and idolatry in a way it had not been previously before the fall, while yet in its still imperfect newly created state. Therefore, the various expressions about God being unable to inhabit earthly structures are best understood, at least in part, by realizing that the old order and sanctuary have been tainted with sin and must be cleansed and recreated before God’s Shekinah presence, formerly limited to heaven and the holy of holies, can dwell universally throughout creation

10. PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS :
1.Heat production:
There is a marked increase in skin temperature in the 1st
two minute, up to 12-13°c. This drop, while in the wax
wrapping to an increase of about 8°c at the end of 30
minutes.
In the subcutaneous fascia, there is an increase of 5°c at the
end of the treatment.
In the superficial muscles, is only about 2-3°c rise in
temperature at the end of the treatment.
2. Circulating effect:
Stimulation of superficial capillaries and arterioles cause
local hyperaemia and reflex vasodilatation. This is marked
only in the region of the skin.
11. • The hyperaemia is due to response of the skin to
its function of heat regulation.
• The effects of vasodilatation in the muscle are
negligible, but then may be some reflex heating
in the joints.
• Skin and subcutaneous tissue temperature drop
after15-20 minute, reducing the vasodilatation.
• Exercise after the wax is essential to increase the
muscle circulation and sedative effect of heat to
obtain more range of movement and muscle
strength.
12. • 3. Analgesic effect:
• The most important effect of wax its marked sedative effect on the
tissue.
• The moist heat is remarkable soothing to the patient.
• It is this effect that is used prior to the exercise, in the treatment of
superficially placed joints.
• It is very comfortable to the patient.
• 4. Stretching effect:
• Wax leaves the skin moist, soft and pliable.
• This is useful for stretching scar and adhesion before applying
mobilization techniques.
13. Indications:
1. Pain and Muscle Spasm:
Wax reduces the pain and muscle spasm.
2. Oedema and Inflammation:
The gentle heat reduces post-traumatic swelling,
rheumatoid arthritis or degenerative joint disease, of

8. Lack of comprehension ( children, senile , head injuries,
confused, agitated,…)
9. Deep X~ray therapy within three months prior to
treatment ↓ bloodflow thus impaired sensation.
10. External or internal metal fixators, implants (metal
plates in orthopedics). 15
16. Advantages:
2 or 3 patients can be treated in the same
time.
Useful for pt. with poor heat tolerance, dry
scaly skins, after Plaster of Paris removal.
Can be followed by therapeutic exercises.
Can be carried out at home.
Wax can mold around the bony contours of
feet & hands.
Heat is applied evenly by conduction.
17. Disadvantages:
1.Effective only for distal extremities in the terms of ease of
application.
2.No method of temperature controls once applied.
3.Sedimentation occurs at the bottom.
4.It is a passive treatment: exercise may not be performed
simultaneously.
5.The bath must be cleaned regularly & emptied at least twice a
year.
6.Contamination of oil by atmospheric dust.
7.It also poses environmental concerns regarding its disposal.
19. Preparation of patient:
The nature of wax treatment is explained and the area to
be treated is inspected for contraindication.
Look for any wound, skin infection, rashes etc. on the part to
be treated.
Wash the area thoroughly & dry by using tissue paper or
cotton.
Tell the patient in brief about temperature of the wax and
benefits.so that he/she can prepare psychologically and
fear of heat is minimized.
The patient is instructed to remove any jewelry or metal in the
area.
Position of the patient should be such that the part to be
treated comes closer to the wax bath container.
Instruct the patient to avoid touching the sides and bottom
of the heating unit because burns may result.
Instruct the patient who is receiving an immersion method not
to move the joints that are in the liquid. The cracking of the
wax will allow fresh paraffin to touch the skin, increasing the
risk of burns.
20. Treatment:
Dip the client’s hand into the paraffin up to the
wrist, making sure the hand is -relaxed, for a
few seconds, then remove. Repeat this dip 4
or 5 times until hand is fully coated.
21. iii.
i. When the dipping process is done, put hands in a plastic
liner, or wrap in warm towels.
ii. Place a mitt over the plastic liner, or just leave the hands
sitting in the towels.
Allow the wax to stiffen for five to 10 minutes, then remove
the mitts, liner, or towels.
iv. Remove the paraffin and throw away the used wax.
28. 5. Towelling/Bandaging method:
A lint cloth / towel is immersed in molten paraffin
wax and then wrapped around the body part.
Several layers can be made over the body part.
This method is preferably used for treating proximal
parts of the body.
29. PARAFFIN WAX
Along with the use of hydrotherapy, the use of
paraffin wax therapy can be traced all the way
back to Roman Empire.
In those ancient times, the Roman would pour hot
waxes on the body in preparation for message
therapy.
Later the French embraced paraffin therapy by
melting paraffin wax and spreading it on wounds
to accelerate healing.
In world War I, the British used paraffin wax
therapy as a protocol to treat orthopedic disorders
in military hospitals.
30. In modern times, paraffin therapy is quite common and widely used
to aid in the treatment of conditions such as the following:
Arthritis
Bursitis
Eczema
Fibromyalgia
Inflammation
Muscle spasms
Overworked/fatigued muscles
Psoriasis
Scar Tissue
Stiff Joints
Tendonitis
Tennis Elbow
31. Can moist heat therapy help my pain and
stiffness? How about my dry weary skin?
Paraffin therapy is one of the most effective
method of applying deep heat to relieve pain and
stiffness. The warm paraffin also moisturizes for
healthier looking softer skin.
Therabath warm paraffin wax treatment are fast
acting, drug-free and versatile, providing heat
therapy for many different applications from
arthritis joint pain relieve.
32. Paraffin wax is known as retaining a great amount
of heat as it has a good absorbing power
When one uses paraffin wax bath the wax goes
through a phase change and starts melting and
becomes the paraffin then takes the shape of s
coating on the dipped part of the hands or feet
This way the heat present in the paraffin bath is
transferred to the affected are where you
experiencing pain
33. The heat from a paraffin wax bath helps in the
opening the pores of the skin which, in turn
increases blood circulation in that specific
area.
This not only revitalizes the skin but also
rejuvenates it, making the skin look smooth
and radiant a paraffin wax bath is drug free
painless and fast acting therapy that can help
in getting rid of the pain in no time
34. Paraffin Wax:
The melted wax needs to be maintained at a
temperature of 40°C - 45°C for treatment purposes.
The temperature of the wax must be checked
before treatment is given.
This method of heating the tissue has the
advantage that it is the most convenient way of
applying conducted heat to the extremities.
As the wax solidifies from its molten state it releases
its energy of latent heat and this heat energy is
conducted into the tissue.
The composition of solid wax , liquid paraffin ,
petroleum jelly 7:3:1.
35. METHODS OF PARAFFIN WAX
BATH DIP METHOD:
The part to be treated must be clean and
free from cuts, rashes or infection.
Fingers apart, dip hand and remove.
Wait, harden and opaque
Redip 6 to 10 times.
Wrap in plastic bags, wax paper then
towel.
Don't move hand during dipping or rest
which prevent to crack coating and allow
air to penetrate and cool rapidly..
36. Elevate extremity
Treatment
time=20 minutes.
After this remove the
towel and the wax.
Inspect and dry
the part.
The discarded wax is
finally remelted
strained and place
back in the bath at
the end of the day.
37. PAINT OR BRUSHING METHOD.
Paint a layer of paraffin onto
treatment area with a brush.
Wait for opaque and harden.
Paint another layer. (not larger
than 1st layer)
Repeat 6 to 10 times.
Cover with plastic bags then
towel and don't move the
area.
Wait for 20 minutes or until
cool.
Peel off, replace or Discard.
38. DIP IMMERSION METHOD.
Finger apart, dip and remove.
Wait 5 to 15 seconds, harden and opaque.
Remain in it for upto 20 minutes.
Remove, when temperature should be at
lower range
When treatment completed for all above
methods,
Inspect the area
Any sign of adverse effects
Sterilized the wax by heating it to
80°C(176°F) then allow it to cool overnight.
Its temperature should be allowed to return
to b/w 45°C to 50°C
39. DIRECT POURING
METHOD.
The molten wax is
directly poured by a mug
or utensil on the part to
be treated and wrapped
around a towel.
The wax is allowed to
solidify for about 10-12
minutes.
40. TOWELLING OR BANDAGING
METHOD.
A towel or roll of
bandage is immersed
in in molten paraffin
wax and then
wrapped around body
part.
This method usually
used for treating
proximal parts of the
body.
43. Advantages
Maintain good contact with highly contoured
areas
Easy to use
Inexpensive
Body part can be elevated.
Oil lubricate and conditions the skin
Can be used by the patient at home
44. Disadvantages
Messy and time consuming to apply
Cannot be used an open skin lesions as it may
contaminate the lesion
Risk of cross contamination if paraffin is
reused.
Part in depended position for dip immersion
method.
45. Contraindications
Open wound:
Wax shouldn't enter in open wound because it will set in tissue
acting as an inert foreign body and delay healing.
Skin condition
Acute dermatitis may be worse by wax or any other form of heat on
skin.
Skin infections are not usually treated as heat may increase the
inflammation activity.
Defective arterial blood supply including DVT and vericose vein.
Impaired skin sensations, defective thermal sensation couple with
deficient cutaneous circulation as occur with recently skin graft do
not treat.
Impaired skin sensation, defective thermal sensation
couple with deficient cutaneous circulation as occur
with recently skin graft do not treat. Defective arterial supply.
46. DANGER
Inflammable, if it becomes overheated for
precaution have Fire blanket, Suitable CO2
or Foam extinguisher.
47. EFFECTS OF PARAFFIN
Marked increase in the temperature of skin
Less increase in other superficial tissue.
CIRCULATORY EFFECTS:
Stimulating of Superficial capillaries and arterioles
causing local hyperemia and reflex vasodilation.
Neurogenic vasodilation due to the action of
vasodilator formed as a result of sweat gland
activity.
48. EFFECTS ON SKIN:
Skin become moist and soft after wax application
which helps to soften adhesions and scars in the
skin prior to mobilizing and stretching procedures.
EFFECTS ON SENSORY NERVES:
Mild heating appears to have a sedative effect on
sensory nerve endings.
In RA or degenerative joint diseases, decrease
pain and muscle spasm.
49. Paraffin wax, with a melting point of approximately 54 C, is combined with a mineral oil
such as liquid paraffin to produce a temperature-controlled bath at a temperature
between 42'C and 50C. These temperatures are slightly higher than would be
tolerated if the body part were placed in hot water. This is because the specific heat
of paraffin wax is less than that of water (2.72 kJ/kg per degree centigrade for Wax
and 4.2 kJ/kg per degree centigrade for water). Wax therefore releases less energy
than water when cooling. Selkins and Emery (1990) note that the amount of heat
imparted to the tissue due the solidification of the wax - the latent heat of fusion - is
small. At the same time, heat loss is prevented owing to the insulating nature of the
material. The net result is a well-insulated, low-temperature method of heating tissue.
Slightly higher temperatures may be used for the upper extremities than for the lower
extremities and newly healed tissue (Bums & Conin 1987, Head & Helms 1977).
51. Efficacy of Paraffin Wax Baths for Rheumatoid Arthritic
Hands.
•Objective:
Toprovide an overview on the therapeutic application of paraffin
wax to the hands of people with rheumatoid arthritis and to examine
critically whether paraffin wax is efficacious for this condition in light of
this information.
•Methods:
A systematic database search using the MeSH heading ‘rheumatoid
arthritis' combined with the terms: ‘therapeutic use of heat' and
‘therapeutic use of cold' was implemented. All relevant basic studies,
clinical trials examining the effect paraffin wax has on hand tissue
temperature, and randomised controlled clinical trials specifically
examining the use of paraffin wax for treating rheumatoid arthritis, and
their methodological quality were rigorously assessed according to
standardised criteria.
52. • Results:
Of the four randomised trials identified concerning the outcome of
paraffin wax applications to rheumatoid arthritic hands, one yielded
equivocal results, while three reported that after three to four weeks,
paraffin wax applications were accompanied by significant
improvements in rheumatoid arthritic hand function when followed
by exercise. The modality also relieves pain and stiffness
immediately after its application with no documented detrimental
effects on the disease process, even though paraffin wax
temporarily raises joint temperature
• Conclusions:
As a whole our data suggest there may be some benefit with few side-
effects in the application of paraffin wax to the hands of people with
non-acute rheumatoid arthritis prior to exercise. However, the data
are insufficient and preclude any definitive conclusions concerning
the efficacy of paraffin wax for treating painful hand arthritis.
53. Topical analgesic added to
paraffin enhances paraffin bath
treatment of individuals with
hand osteoarthritis.
ABSTRACT:•PURPOSE:
To compare treating patients with symptomatic hand osteoarthritis
(OA) with paraffin baths only (PO) (100% wax) or paraffin baths 80%
wax with 20% topical analgesic (PTA).
•METHODS:
Subjects met criteria of the American College of Rheumatology for
classifying symptomatic hand OA and had a Dreiser's index score >5
points. Current and average pain at rest and with movement was
assessed with visual analogue scales. Hand function was assessed by
the functional index for hand OA(FIHOA).
54. • RESULTS:
Both groups had a significant reduction in their 'current' pain 15
min after the first and twelfth treatments compared to pre-
treatment but there was no difference between groups (t =
0.10, p > 0.05). The PTA group had greater improvement over
the 12 treatment sessions for their pain at rest (t = 2.92, p <
0.05) and with movement (t = 4.73, p < 0.05) than the PO
group. The PTA group also showed greater improvement in
their FIHOA following 12 treatments than the PO group (t =
3.52, p < 0.05).
• CONCLUSION:
Our results indicate that the addition of a topical analgesic to
paraffin produced significantly greater pain relief at rest and
during movement than paraffin baths alone after 12
treatments. Additionally, the PTA group experienced greater
improved hand function.
55. • Evaluation of paraffin bath treatment in patients with
systemic sclerosis.
ABSTRACT:
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effects of treatment with paraffin bath
in patients with systemic sclerosis (scleroderma).
METHODS:
In 17 patients with scleroderma one hand was treated
daily with paraffin bath in combination with hand
exercise. The other hand was treated with exercise only
and was considered a control. Hand function was
estimated before treatment and after 1 month of
treatment, concerning hand mobility and grip force, and
perceived pain, stiffness and skin elasticity.
56. • RESULTS:
At the follow-up, finger flexion and extension, thumb abduction,
volar flexion in the wrist, and perceived stiffness and skin elasticity
had improved significantly in the paraffin-treated hand compared
with the baseline values. The improved hand function was
independent of skin score and disease duration. Improvements in
function were significantly greater in the hand which was treated
with paraffin bath and exercise than in the hand treated with
exercise only concerning extension deficit, perceived stiffness and
skin elasticity.
• CONCLUSIONS:
In this pilot study hand exercise in combination with paraffin bath
seemed to improve mobility, perceived stiffness and skin elasticity.
However, further studies with larger sample size are needed to
attain more reliable results of the effect of paraffin bath treatment in
patients with scleroderma.
57. Efficacy of Paraffin Wax Bath with and without Joint
Mobilization Techniques in Rehabilitation of post-
Traumatic stiff hand.
Abstract
•Objective:
Post-traumatic stiff hand is common a condition which causes pain and
disability, the paraffin wax bath and joint mobilizations have the key role
in its rehabilitation. We conducted the present study to determine the
efficacy of paraffin wax bath with mobilization techniques compared
with joint mobilization alone.
Methodology:
This single blind randomized control trial was conducted on 71
patients in department of physical therapy and rehabilitation, Riphah
International University Islamabad, and patients with post-traumatic stiff
hand after distal upper extremity fractures, were included.
58. The patients were randomized into two groups: the joint mobilization
techniques with paraffin wax bath were included in group A, and joint
mobilization techniques without paraffin wax bath in group B. The study
variables were pain score on visual analogue scale (VAS) 0/10, thumb
function score (TFS) and passive range of motion (PROM) of wrist
flexion, extension, radial and ulnar deviation, and were compared at
baseline and at completion on plan-of-care after six weeks.
•Results:
Seventy one patients with post-traumatic stiff hand were enrolled
and placed randomly into two groups. The baseline characteristics
were similar in both groups. Six week after intervention, patients in
group A had more improvement in pain score (p=0.001), TFS
(p=0.003), and PROM of wrist flexion (p=0.002), extension (p=0.003),
radial deviation (p=0.013), and ulnar deviation (p=.004), as compared
to group B. However, in group B the improvement was less in pain
score (p=0.104), TFS (p=0.520), and PROM of wrist flexion (p=0.193),
extension (p=0.1081), radial deviation (p=0.051), and ulnar deviation
(p=.168), as compared to groupA.
59. • Conclusion:
Paraffin wax bath with joint mobilization
techniques are more effective than mobilization
techniques without paraffin wax bath in the
rehabilitation of post traumatic stiff hand.
