Should I use a hot or cold compress? Quite often my clients ask me if they should use a hot or cold compress on their specific injury. Allow me to explain the difference between the two. Hot Compress: Also known as heat therapy. Use a hot compress or heat pack to relief chronic pain to an injury without swelling or inflammation.

Best-in-class Process Instrumentation and Analytics The heat energy absorbed by the chiller needs to be rejected out of the system and into the atmosphere. Evaporative heat rejection devices called cooling towers are typically used to lower the water temperature in large chiller systems.

- Other Forms of Electrotherapy. There are other forms of electrotherapy that can be used for sports injuries. These include pulsed shortwave therapy and laser therapy. Pulsed shortwave therapy is a non-thermal method of healing (meaning it does not produce an increased temperature unlike other treatments).

Geothermal heat pump A geothermal heat pump or ground source heat pump is a central heating and/or cooling system that transfers heat to or from the ground. It uses the earth as a heat source or a heat sink. This design takes advantage of the moderate temperatures in the ground to boost efficiency and reduce the operational costs of heating and cooling systems, and may be combined with solar heating to form a geosolar system with even greater efficiency. They are also known by other names, including geoexchange, ear

Foot Pain  In-Depth Report Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) may be a treatment option for some tendon injuries that haven't responded to other treatments. It involves passing shock waves through your skin to the affected area. This may be carried out over one or more sessions, and local anaesthetic may be used to numb the area first.

Heat shock protein Heat shock protein. Heat shock proteins (HSP) are a family of proteins that are produced by cells in response to exposure to stressful conditions. They were first described in relation to heat shock, but are now known to also be expressed during other stresses including exposure to cold, UV light, and during wound healing or tissue remodeling.

Heat Pump Systems Many high-efficiency heat pumps are equipped with a desuperheater, which recovers waste heat from the heat pump's cooling mode and uses it to heat water. A desuperheater-equipped heat pump can heat water 2 to 3 times more efficiently than an ordinary electric water heater.

- A heat pump is a mechanism that is used to extract heat from a source with lower temperature and transfer it into a source with a higher temperature. A heat pump can also be used for cooling, however, only the heating option is needed in radiant heating systems.While air-source heat pumps are very common, geothermal heat pumps are considered to be more efficient for a radiant heating system.The difference between the two pumps is that instead of using outside air, a geothermal heat pump absorbs heat from the earth.hile air-source heat pumps are very common, geothermal heat pumps are considered to be more efficient for a radiant heating system.

How does a heat exchanger work? Plate heat exchanger is widely used for cooling system in automobiles and refrigeration systems. Plate type is only suitable for low temperature and pressure processes, not exceeding than 200 degress Celsius and 20 bars.

Moist Heat Therapy for Muscle Relief Because water transfers heat better than air moist heat therapy delivers more heat directly to your skin without losing heat in the transfer process. The result of this greater heat transfer efficiency is that more of the heat makes its way deep into muscles, joints, ligaments and soft tissue.

Shock Mounts Shock Mounts Shock mounts consist of a rubber section vulcanised to a metal plate, or simply rubber moulded components. The purpose of a shock mount is to reduce the level of transmitted shock to the surrounding structure through relatively high deflections in the rubber. Examples of shock mounting applications include bumpers on commercial vehicles, crane buffers and military applications (to MIL-STD shock specifications where required).

- Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a treatment used in physical therapy, orthopedics, urology and cardiology. The shock waves are abrupt, high amplitude pulses of mechanical energy, similar to soundwaves, generated by an electromagnetic coil or a spark in water.

- Introduction to Shock Tubes. Basic concept:  High-pressure driver gas expands upon diaphragm opening creating shock wave.  Test gas is instantaneously compressed and heated to combustion temperatures. from incident and reflected shocks.  High-temperature experiments monitored at endwall.

Overview Heat from an ultrasound, for example, can be used to help pain in tendonitis. When applying heat therapy, you can choose to use local, regional, or whole body treatment. Local therapy is best for small areas of pain, like one stiff muscle.

Heat pump When a heat pump is used for heating, it employs the same basic refrigeration-type cycle used by an air conditioner or a refrigerator, but in the opposite direction - releasing heat into the conditioned space rather than the surrounding environment.

Electroconvulsive therapy Electroconvulsive therapy, formerly known as electroshock therapy, and often referred to as shock treatment, is a psychiatric treatment in which seizures are electrically induced in patients to provide relief from mental disorders. The ECT procedure was first conducted in 1938 and is the only currently used form of shock therapy in psychiatry. ECT is often used with informed consent as a last line of intervention for major depressive disorder, mania, and catatonia. ECT machines have been placed

Physical Therapy: TENS, Ultrasound, Heat and Cryotherapy Electrical Stimulation High voltage pulsed galvanic stimulation has been used in acute low back pain to reduce muscle spasm and soft tissue edema (swelling). It is commonly used despite the lack of hard scientific evidence for its efficacy.

Heat Therapy Heat therapy, sometimes called thermotherapy, involves applying something warm to a body part to ease pain. Heath therapy for migraines can use dry or moist heat. Moist heat warms the tissues of the body more quickly because water transfers heat faster than air. Inflammation or swelling.

Shock wave In physics, a shock wave (also spelled shockwave), or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance. When a wave moves faster than the local speed of sound in a fluid it is a shock wave. Like an ordinary wave, a shock wave carries energy, and can propagate through a medium; however it is characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous change in pressure, temperature and density of the medium.

Heat instructions Moist heat is the best choice for the treatment of a superficial injury because it reaches deeper into the affected area than dry heat methods. Moist heat is a therapeutic heat therapy that penetrates between 1 to 5 mm below the skin’s surface. (In comparison Ultrasound Therapy can raise the temperature of the affected tissue 5 cm below the skin surface and is a deep heat therapy usually reserved for more severe musculo-skeletal injuries).
