Decreases the pain
Decreases the muscle tone
Promotes healing
Softens the exudates
Provides the warmth
Stimulates peristalsis


Not used in malignancies
Acutely inflamed areas
Clients with paralysis
Not applied on open wounds
Should not be applied on clients with high temperature
Should not be applied on patients with impaired kidney, heart and lung functions.

Cold relieves the pain
Prevents gangrene
Prevents oedema and reduce
the inflammation
Controls haemorrhage
Cold anesthetize the area
Helps to reduce body temperature
Should not be applied on patients who are in state of shock or collapse
Not applied when there is oedema
Should not be applied when there is muscle spasm
Should not be applied to patients with impaired circulation. Eg. Diabetes etc.
Should not be applied to patients with descreased sensation
Should not be applied on infected wounds
Should not be applied on patients having shivering

INFRARED RAYS :
Infrared lamps transmit the infrared rays which are invisible beyond the red end of the spectrum.
 
ULTRAVIOLET RAYS:
It is invisible beyond the visible spectrum and are used for the production of heat in the body.
 
ELECTRIC CRADLE (HEAT CRADLE):
It is a bed cradle, inside is fitted with light source and thermometer and is used when large part of the body is to be treated. The duration of treatment is about 20-30 minutes after the unit is being warmed up or it may be used continuously
