Background and Identification

Heat therapy is used to promote circulation, relax stiff muscles and joints, and ease pain. There are two types of heat therapy: moist and dry. Moist heat therapy methods, such as moist towels or a hot bath, help penetrate muscles. Dry heat therapy removes moisture from the body. Popular methods of applying dry heat include saunas and electric heating pads.

Fluidotherapy is a type of dry heat therapy that uses forced heat convection to treat patients. Fluidotherapy machines, or Dry Heat Therapy (DHT) Units, create forced convection by combining heated air with small, circulating particles to promote circulation and relieve pain in localized areas.
