There are several methods to apply heat therapy, including:
- Hot packs: These can be heated in a microwave or hot water and applied to the affected area. - Heating pads: Electric or battery-operated pads that provide consistent heat. - Warm baths: Immersing the affected area in warm water can also be effective. - Paraffin wax treatments: Often used for hands and feet, where the area is dipped in warm paraffin wax.
