There are several different methods of providing heat therapy, but none of them is as effective as deep tissue heat with diathermy. Diathermy is the most efficient way to provide heat therapy to deep tissue and large muscle areas. Unlike hot packs, heating pads, and paraffin wax, which primarily increase superficial temperature, diathermy works to emanate heat at the site of the injured muscle. This deep, extensive heat is the best option for treating large areas of deep tissue after injury. It also is extremely effective for people who want to improve the range of motion of their joints or muscles. The goal for therapeutic heating is to raise the temperature in the targeted deep tissue by 1C to 4C (1.8F to 7.2F) above baseline, to safely optimize its benefits to the body. In the past, diathermy has been used mostly by physical therapists and other medical professionals to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and increase the flexibility of joints and muscles. Applying deep heat before stretching can help loosen and elongate tissues and reduce the risk of injury.
