505			_aThe book is organized into six major parts. It begins with an introduction to the physiology and clinical use of physical agents, followed by discussion of common patient problems such as inflammation, pain, abnormal muscle tone, and motion restrictions. The next sections examine thermal agents, including heat, cold, ultrasound, and diathermy; electrical currents used for muscle contraction, pain control, tissue healing, and EMG biofeedback; electromagnetic agents such as lasers, light, and ultraviolet therapy; and mechanical agents including hydrotherapy, shock wave therapy, traction, and compression.
520			_a Physical Agents in Rehabilitation: An Evidence-Based Approach to Practice by Michelle H. Cameron provides evidence-based guidance on the safe and effective use of physical agents in physical and occupational rehabilitation. The book explains the physiological principles underlying therapeutic modalities and their application to common patient problems. It covers thermal agents, electrical currents, electromagnetic agents, and mechanical agents, including heat and cold, ultrasound, diathermy, electrotherapy, lasers and light, hydrotherapy, traction, compression, and shock wave therapy. The text emphasizes clinical decision-making, current research evidence, treatment indications, contraindications, and appropriate application of physical agents.
