Abstract
Therapeutic heat, cryotherapy, spray and stretch in myofascial pain syndromes, electrical stimulation, pharmacophoresis, therapeutic massage, and physical agents are discussed as possible modalities for treating soft tissue after spinal injury. Only through careful evaluation and specific diagnosis can such methods be utilized to their fullest potential. The authors stress that total treatment must incorporate patient education in posture and positioning as well as prophylactic measures, followed by a general strengthening program in later stages of rehabilitation.
