Therapeutic Modalities for Physical Therapists
Publisher:McGraw-Hill/Appleton & Lange | Pages:576 | 2001-10-03 | ISBN:0071376925 | PDF | 11 MB
This book provides theoretically based, but a practically oriented guide to the use of therapeutic modalities for students in physical therapy programs. It is intended for use in courses where various clinically oriented techniques and methods are presented. The second edition addresses a wide range of modalities, from electrical to thermal to manual to light (laser) therapy. Each chapter discusses the physiological basis for use, clinical applications, specific techniques of application through the use of related laboratory activities, and relevant individual case studies. The book is rounded out with pedagogical aids, including objectives, glossary of key terms, references, and appendices containing trigger points in the body and a list of manufactures of modality equipment.
This book features:
- Practical, expert guidance on all leading types of treatments used in physical therapy
- Explanations of methods, from electrical stimulation through biofeedback and ultrasound
- Evidence-based, referenced coverage of important modalities, including shortwave and microwave diathermy, iontophoresis, ultraviolet therapy, infrared, intermittent compression devices, and therapeutic massage
- Unique set of laboratory exercises accompanying each modality
- Expert guidance on managing pain with treatment modalities
- In-depth coverage of joint mobilization and joint and spinal traction
- Insight-building chapter on the physiological effects and benefits of each modality, from a body-systems perspective
- Hands-on help with clinical applications
- Highlighted treatment tips
- Numerous case studies
- A variety of learning tools, including chapter objectives, definitions in text margins, and review questions at the end of each chapter
- Helpful appendices with illustrated locations of motor points, equipment manufacturers' and distributors' addresses, and units of measurements
