Passive Care

Moist Heat/Cryotherapy

In addition to the previous techniques, the doctor may use forms of heat and ice to aid in the treatment. These therapies have physiological effects that may help the patient in achieving their goals. The doctor will examine the patient and see if these therapies are right for them.

Electrical Stimulation

In conjunction with other treatments, your doctor may use electrical stimulation to aid in the healing process. Electrical stimulation may reduce pain and decrease muscular spasms, while promoting healing. The doctor will examine the patient and determine if this therapy is right for them.
