Treatment Modalities
Treatment modalities are essential tools employed in healthcare to address specific conditions and improve patient well-being. These modalities encompass a diverse range of interventions tailored to individual needs.
Boost Oxygen is one such modality designed to provide supplemental oxygen to individuals experiencing hypoxia or low oxygen levels due to various reasons such as altitude sickness or respiratory conditions.
Chafe and Blister treatment modalities are focused on alleviating discomfort and preventing further irritation caused by friction between skin surfaces or between skin and clothing. These may include protective bandages, lubricants, or specialized dressings to promote healing and prevent infection.
DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) Prevention modalities aim to reduce the risk of blood clots forming in deep veins, typically in the legs. Strategies may include physical activity encouragement, compression stockings, and anticoagulant medications to improve blood flow and prevent clot formation.
Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) is a treatment modality utilized by physical therapists and chiropractors to address musculoskeletal issues such as scar tissue adhesions, fascial restrictions, and muscle tightness. It involves the use of specialized tools to apply controlled pressure and friction to targeted areas, promoting tissue healing and restoring range of motion.
