The therapeutic use of hot and cold has traditionally been referred to as hydrotherapy because so many of the applications employed have been water-based – hydro means ‘water’. Water is indeed an effective choice for such treatments. It can be used in any of its three forms: gas (steam), liquid (water), and solid (ice), and has been employed in healing for centuries because it is accessible, affordable, and has few adverse effects when used properly.
