👉 Hydrotherapy

are produced by the application of water at temperatures above or below that of the body

👉 Thermal effects

effects are produced by the impact of water upon the surface of the body in the form of sprays, douches, frictions, whirlpools, etc.

👉 The mechanical effects

water molecules on the surface have greater tendency to hold together

👉 surface tension

the tendency of water molecule to adhere to other substances

👉 Adhesion

(Water in motion): the tendency of water molecules to adhere to each other

👉 hydromechanics

are external form of energy (e.g. heat, cold, light, electricity) applied to the patients to assess in the rehabilitation process.

👉 Physical agents modalities (PAMs)

is a direct transfer of energy between two objects in physical (direct) contact with each other.

👉 conduction.

is a direct transfer of energy from higher temperature to lower temperature without the need for an intervening medium

👉 radiation

is a transfer of heat through direct contact between circulating medium (air/ water) and another material of different temperature

👉 Convection.

non-thermal form of energy (mechanical,electrical and/ or chemical) in to heat.

👉 Conversion

heat is absorbed bythe liquid on the skin surface and cools the skin as it turns into a gaseous state.

👉 evaporation

A condition(s) that could benefit from a specific therapeutic modality.

👉 indication

A condition(s) that could be adversely affected if a particular therapeutic modality is used.

👉 contraindication

Applied with special care or limitations. “Relative contraindications”

👉 precautions

In acute trauma or hemophilia

👉 bleeding

Due to potential peripheral superficial vasodilatation and decrease blood pressure .

👉 Fainting

Poor technique
Patients' inability to dissipate or detect heat
•Treatment over areas of implanted metal or open wounds

👉 burn

used for special massage effects or to give under water douche.

👉jet hose

may be used to convey non ambulatory patients in and out the tank.

👉water stretcher and overhead carrier

A narrow section at the middle of the tank allows the therapist to reach the patient and wider sections at each end

👉hubbard tank

can be used to transport the patient into the hydrotherapy tank in a seated position

👉body sling

👉hubbard tank

is named for the engineer who first designed it.

👉hubbard tank

designed for full immersion of the body, usually filled with warm water, used in therapeutic exercises in a program of physiotherapy.

👉hubbard tank

it is alternate immersions of the part in hot (100-105°F/40-45°C) and cold (59 -68°F/15-20°C) water to produce marked hyperemia of the skin.
