Hot water application
Hot application is applied by contacting any part of the body with a temperature of 40-45 degrees. Hot application stimulates the touch receptors and has a vasodilation effect. Thermoreceptors in the foot are stimulated by applying heat to the feet, and this stimulation is thought to be effective in reducing the activation of the sympathetic nervous system and thus reducing pain.
