Abstract:

Hydrotherapy is highly recommended for older adults because it offers warmth and support, so people with pain or reduced mobility and balance can move and exercise more freely compared to regular physical activity. The high plasma antioxidant capacity of uric acid in neutralizing oxidative species and the importance of nitric oxide (NO) in vasodilation and inflammatory response are relevant in older adults. This work aimed to evaluate hydrotherapy's effect on uric acid and NO concentrations in a population aged ≥ 60 years before and after hydrotherapy. A randomized study with 37 individuals was divided into two groups: the experimental group, which was evaluated at two time points: T0-before treatment and T1-after 15-hydrotherapy sessions, and the control group, which did not practice any exercise. The determinations of uric acid and NO levels in serum were carried out by spectrophotometry. Statistics were carried out with SPSS. The experimental group showed a significant increase in the concentration of uric acid in T1 compared to T0. NO results did not show significant differences between T0 and T1. Regular hydrotherapy increases the concentration of serum uric acid, potentially beneficial in the performance of antioxidant functions, reducing oxidative stress, delaying aging, and improving the well-being of older adults.

Abstract:

This study aims to determine the comparison of prostaglandin and endorphin levels in adolescents with primary dysmenorrhea with and without warm (37-40oC) and cold (18-20oC) hydrotherapy. This quasi-experimental study with a post-test only controls group design was carried out in Islamic Boarding Schools with a sample of 36 young girls divided into 3 groups: 12 teens given warm hydrotherapy, 12 teens given cold hydrotherapy and 12 teens not given intervention (control). Blood plasma is taken after an intervention is given on the first day of menstruation. Examination of prostaglandin and endorphins levels using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit method. After cold hydrotherapy, the mean levels of prostaglandins in the cold hydrotherapy group were twice higher (569 pg/ml) compared to controls (394 pg/ml). The mean prostaglandin level in the warm hydrotherapy group also showed an increase prostaglandin (437 pg/ml) compared to the control (394 pg/ml). In addition to increasing levels of prostaglandins, increased levels of endorphins also occurred in the group given warm hydrotherapy (154 pg/ml) and the group was given cold hydrotherapy (187 pg/ml) compared to the control (119 pg/ml) p = 0.001. The conclusion in this study is that warm and cold hydrotherapy can increase levels of prostaglandins and endorphins in adolescents with primary dysmenorrhea. However, cold hydrotherapy increases endorphin levels higher than warm hydrotherapy. Key words: Prostaglandin, Endorphin, Hydrotherapy, Primary Dismenorrhea.

Abstract:

Background: The evidence of hydrotherapy after rotator cuff repair (RCR) is limited as most studies either used it as an adjuvant to standard land-based therapy, or have different initiation timing. This study aimed to compare hydrotherapy and land-based therapy with varying immobilization time. Methods: Patients who underwent RCR with a 10-days or 1-month immobilization duration (early or late rehabilitation) were prospectively randomized. Results: Constant scores significantly differed at three months only, with the best score exhibited by the late hydrotherapy group (70.3 ± 8.2) followed by late land-based (61.0 ± 5.7), early hydrotherapy (55.4 ± 12.8) and early land-based (54.6 ± 13.3) groups (p < 0.001). There was a significant interaction between rehabilitation type and immobilization duration (p = 0.004). The effect of hydrotherapy compared to land-based therapy was large at three months when initiated lately only (Cohen’s d, 1.3; 95%CI, 0.9–1.7). However, the relative risk (RR) of postoperative frozen shoulder or retear occurrence for late hydrotherapy was higher compared to early hydrotherapy (RR, 3.9; 95%CI, 0.5–30.0). Conclusions: Hydrotherapy was more efficient compared to land-based therapy at three months only and if initiated lately. Even though initiating hydrotherapy later brought greater constant scores at three months, it might increase the risk of frozen shoulders or retear compared to early hydrotherapy.

Abstract:

The use of hydrotherapy during childbirth has gained relevance due to the demand for natural childbirth and greater respect for the woman’s choice. Studies have shown benefits such as less use of epidural analgesia, increased ability to cope with pain, shorter labor, and a better overall birth experience. Objective: The main objective of this study was to generate further evidence on maternal and birth outcomes associated with the use of hydrotherapy during labor, specifically aiming to describe the effects of water immersion during all stages of labor (first, second, and third) on women. Methodology: A retrospective cohort study was carried out on a random sample of women who gave birth at the Costa del Sol Hospital between January 2010 and December 2020. The calculated sample size was 377 women and the data were extracted from their partograms. After data extraction, two groups were formed: one group used hydrotherapy during childbirth (n = 124), while the other group included women who did not use hydrotherapy during the childbirth process (n = 253). Results: The results highlight significant differences in pain perception, analgesia use, types of labor, and delivery times between the two groups. Women who did not use hydrotherapy reported higher pain perception, with a median (IQR) of 8 (7–9) on a numerical scale, compared to a median (IQR) of 6 (5–7) for the hydrotherapy group. Furthermore, the group without hydrotherapy required epidural analgesia in 40% of cases, while in the hydrotherapy group, it was only necessary in 20%. In terms of the type of delivery, the hydrotherapy group had more spontaneous vaginal deliveries compared to the non-hydrotherapy group, which had more operative vaginal deliveries. The overall duration of labor was longer in the hydrotherapy group, especially in women who arrived at the hospital late in labor. Conclusions: Hydrotherapy is associated with a longer time to delivery. Women with a higher pain tolerance tend to opt for hydrotherapy instead of epidural analgesia.

Abstract:

Based on profile data from Jambi Province, it shows that the incidence of hypertension ranks first from 2018 to 2020. The increasing incidence of hypertension requires community nurses to teach the public how to treat it with red ginger hydrotherapy. Research Before results show that red ginger hydrotherapy has an effect on blood pressure. For this reason, it is necessary to carry out community service regarding the use of red ginger hydrotherapy to treat hypertension problems. This service aims to provide education to the public on how to treat hypertension with red jehe hydrotherapy. This service will be carried out on 22-25 May 2022 to 15 people in Legok Village, Jambi City. The method for implementing this activity is 1). Pretest 2). Providing education about how to treat hypertension with red ginger hydrotherapy, 3). Post test. Education is carried out for 60 minutes. Based on the results of checking the highest systolic blood pressure before treatment was 180 mmHg and the lowest 140 mmHg, while the results of measuring diastolic blood pressure it can be concluded that the highest blood pressure before treatment was 100 and after giving hydrotherapy there was the highest change, namely 80 mmHg. These results indicate that there was a change in blood pressure after administering red ginger hydrotherapy. So red ginger hydrotherapy can be recommended as a therapy for hypertensive patients. For further service, research on red ginger and salt hydrotherapy to treat hypertension is recommended

Abstract:

While effective for labor pain, hydrotherapy is not often used. The purpose of this study was to develop and test an instrument of nurses’ perceptions of the barriers to the use of hydrotherapy in labor. Following generation of items and review by content experts, the Nurses’ Perceptions of the Use of Hydrotherapy in Labor (NPUHL) questionnaire was administered to 65 intrapartum nurses (phase I) and to 401 nurses (phase II). In phase I, the mean score of the NPUHL was significantly and negatively correlated with the Labor Support Scale (r = –.30, p = .016), indicating that nurses who demonstrated more labor-supportive behaviors also perceived fewer barriers to the use of hydrotherapy in labor. In phase II, exploratory factor analysis revealed five factors: Health Care Environment, Knowledge and Beliefs, Personal Concerns, Effort Required for Hydrotherapy, and Technology. There was a significant negative correlation (r = –.61) between use of hydrotherapy and the total NPUHL score and those of its subscales (r = –.12 to –.61); nurses with access to hydrotherapy tubs perceived fewer barriers to hydrotherapy than nurses without (t = 9.71, df = 387, p < .01). For the revised 30-item NPUHL, Cronbach’s alpha was .93, and subscale alphas ranged from .58 to .93. The 30-item NPUHL scale demonstrated evidence of good initial reliability and validity.

Abstract:

Abstract Background The study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of hydrotherapy versus land-based therapy in patients with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in Singapore. Methods A decision-analytic model was constructed to compare the cost-effectiveness of hydrotherapy to land-based therapy over 3 months from societal perspective. Target population comprised patients with low back pain (LBP), osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR). Subgroup analyses were carried out to determine the cost-effectiveness of hydrotherapy in individual MSDs. Relative treatment effects were obtained through a systematic review of published data. Results Compared to land-based therapy, hydrotherapy was associated with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of SGD 27 471 per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gained, which was below the willingness-to-pay threshold of SGD 70 000 per QALY (one gross domestic product per capita in Singapore in 2015). For the respective MSDs, hydrotherapy were dominant (more effective and less costly) in THR and TKR, cost-effective for LBP and RA, and not cost-effective for OA. Treatment adherence and cost of hydrotherapy were key drivers to the ICER values. Conclusions Hydrotherapy was a cost-effective rehabilitation compared to land-based therapy for a population with MSDs in Singapore. However, the benefit of hydrotherapy was not observed in patients with OA.

Abstract:

Background: Low back pain (NPB) is the first disease that causes disabilities at all ages, and its incidence increases withage. A number of previous studies have reported that hydrotherapy has an effect on improving low back pain andincreasing flexibility.Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of hydrotherapy on pain intensity andlumbosacral flexibility in low back pain patients at dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang. Methods: This study is a pre-experimental study with a one group pretest-posttest design with a sample size of 35 NPB patients. Inclusion criteriawere NPB patients who did not undergo operative action, had no contraindications to undergo hydrotherapy, andwere > 29 years old. The exclusion criteria were patients with communication disabilities and a history of low backpain due to infection, tumor and metastases. Subjects dropped out of the study if they underwent hydrotherapy lessthan three times or withdrew. Pain intensity and lumbosacral flexibility data were obtained before and after thesubject underwent hydrotherapy once a week for one month. Results: There was a decrease in pain intensity from5.57 to 4.00 (p <0.001) and an increase in lumbosacral flexibility from 48.10 to 48.73 (p = 0.014) in low back painpatients undergoing hydrotherapy. Conclusion: There is an effect of hydrotherapy on reducing pain intensity andincreasing lumbosacral flexibility in low back pain patients undergoing hydrotherapy at the Medical RehabilitationInstallation Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang

Abstract:

Research examining canine hydrotherapy is distinctly lacking despite the increasing use of hydrotherapy as a rehabilitation tool and as part of a fitness programme. Due to this paucity of research, the aim of this study was to examine differences in apparent neck and back angles of dogs both before, during and after hydrotherapy sessions. Anecdotally, these are the anatomical locations where concern of injury risk lies. Thirty-one dogs were filmed trotting both prior to and post participation in hydrotherapy as well as during the hydrotherapy session. Data were then analysed using Dartfish software. There was no significant difference in the neck angle of the dogs between swimming and trotting (P=0.859) however, dogs had a significantly greater back angle when swimming compared to trotting (P=0.05). The use of buoyancy aids during hydrotherapy, showed no significant difference in neck or back angles compared with no buoyancy aids. This study begins to provide evidence on the effect of hydrotherapy on canine kinematics. It can be used to inform rehabilitation and fitness regimes for dogs with the aim to improve the long-term health and welfare of dogs.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Achieving adequate burn pain control in patients is paramount as inadequate control can lead to PTSD, suicidal ideation, and depression. The pain accompanying hydrotherapy can be extreme and challenging to manage. The purpose of this quality improvement project was to assess our burn center’s current nurse-driven procedural pain control protocol during hydrotherapy. Methods Burn patients admitted from June to August 2020 who underwent hydrotherapy were observed during the procedure. Demographics, comorbidities, injury related data, and pain and sedation medication data were collected. Pain scores (1–10), patient and nurse satisfaction scores (1–10) were collected before, during, and after hydrotherapy. A single patient could be surveyed for up to three times. Paired t-tests and one-way ANOVA were performed to assess significant differences between pre- and post-procedure patient pain scores and satisfaction ratings across encounters, respectively. P < 0.05 was considered significant. Results Twenty-eight patients and 48 hydrotherapy events were surveyed. Patients were predominately male (23, 82.1%), middle aged (44.8 ± 19.6), and had a TBSA of 11.9 ± 10.5%. Analyzing only the first hydrotherapy sessions, time from initial opioid dose to hydrotherapy varied greatly as did the opioid morphine equivalent dose (OME) provided prior to hydrotherapy (Table 1). Only 13 (46.4%) subjects received versed during hydrotherapy. Pain scores post-procedure significantly increased compared to pre-procedure scores (5.39 vs. 6.32; p = 0.035). There was no significant difference in patients’ or nurse’s satisfaction scores regarding pain control nor with nurse’s rating of ease of procedure when comparing scores across the three encounters (Table 1). No adverse events (SaO2 < 92% or deep sedation RAS < 2) were observed across all encounters. Conclusions Our results suggest that procedural pain control during hydrotherapy, while safe, has opportunities for improvement. Pre-procedural medication timing remains imprecise and widely divergent. Satisfaction scores, while high, also have room for improvement. Finally, pre-procedural pain control is unacceptable (mean 5.39) and requires attention.

Abstract:

Background: Hydrotherapy is a resource that is increasingly being used, and may possibly help with labor. Aims: to describe the possible effects of using hydrotherapy in facilitating labor. Method: Integrative review carried out in the LILACS, SCIELO and MEDLINE/PUBMED databases using the descriptors hydrotherapy, labor pain and humanized childbirth. Selected only in Portuguese and English, available in free texts, published between 2017 and 2022. Results: Of the 22 identified, only 3 studies were included: two randomized trials and one observational study applied the use of a hot bath in a bathtub or shower in isolation or associated with Swiss ball exercises. There was a reduction in pain, an increase in cervical dilatation, a reduction in anxiety and a shorter duration of labor. Conclusion: The use of a warm immersion or aspersion bath alone or when combined with exercises on the Swiss ball promotes greater comfort, reduces anxiety and fear, regulates uterine contractions, cervix dilation and increases the level of satisfaction with care in childbirth.

Abstract:

Background: The elderly human population is susceptible to health problems due to decreased organ function. The risk of diabetes in old age also reduces quality of life. Preventing the risk of developing diabetes mellitus requires simple and simple exercise programs such as foot exercises and hydrotherapy. The effect of light leg exercise and hydrotherapy on carbohydrate metabolism is unknown. Objectives: To find out the impact of hydrotherapy alone or in combination with foot exercise on elderly's blood sugar levels. Methods: Parallel three-group pre and post-test designs for an experimental investigation. 21 elderly in RW 04 Karangwetan, Ungaran served as research participants, divided into control group (n=7), combination of foot exercises and hydrotherapy intervention group (n=7), and foot exercise intervention group (n=7). The intervention took place three times per week for five weeks. We used POCT to assess blood sugar levels. Results: There is no significant decrease in blood sugar levels from control group (p>0.05). There is significant decrease in blood sugar levels from foot exercise and hydrotherapy intervention group (p<0.05) and foot exercise intervention group (p<0.05). The difference in blood sugar levels showed significant results between foot exercise and hydrotherapy intervention group and control group (p=0.000) and between foot exercise intervention group and control group (p=0.004). There is no significant differences in blood sugar levels between foot exercise and hydrotherapy intervention group and foot exercise intervention group (p=0.112). Conclusion: Simple exercise activities such as foot exercises together with hydrotherapy have been proven to reduce blood sugar levels in healthy elderly populations without diabetes

Abstract:

Pain is a primitive human instinct that alerts the body’s defense mechanism to prevent damage. Hydrotherapy is the most common modality of treatment used for pain management in naturopathy. This review aims to scientifically evaluate the analgesic effects of hydrotherapy used for pain management. A thorough literature search from inception (1 January 1946) until 16 March 2022 was performed with electronic databases such as Scopus, Embase, PubMed/MEDLINE using the keywords “Hydrotherapy” OR “Balneotherapy” AND “Pain” OR “Analgesic effect.” Seven articles were identified in total. The available evidence suggests hydrotherapy to have significant analgesic effects, attributed to the physical and thermal properties of water.

Abstract:

Objective. The aim of this study was to compare the evolution of daily life activities of patients suffering from sequels of strokes who were submitted to hydrotherapy, conventional kinesiotherapy and those with no physiotherapeutic intervention. Method. A total of 152 patients of both genders were selected according to their arrival in the service and were submitted to hydrotherapy in isolation or together with classical kinesiotherapy, over six months. The 45-minute hydrotherapy and classical kinesiotherapy sessions were performed at least three times weekly. Functional activity was evaluated every three months to identify: the dependence, semi-dependence or independence on routine activities. Analysis of the functional activity was assessed by means of the Barthel index. Results. Of the 152 patients, 118 satisfied inclusion criteria. The participants were divided into three groups: 72 (61%) underwent conventional kinesiotherapy, 32 (27.1%) hydrotherapy followed by conventional kinesiotherapy and 14 (11.9%) had no physiotherapeutic interventions. The conventional kinesiotherapy with hydrotherapy group improved in relation to both the degree of independence and lighter motor sequels (p=0.001). The neurological deficit remained greater in the non-treatment group than in the others (p=0.01). Conclusion. The hydrotherapy may be considered a good coadjuvant procedure for patients with sequels due to stroke.

Abstract:

Purpose: To develop and study the effectiveness of methods and algorithms using a specialized magnetotherapy with underwater water-jet massage for chronic lumbar pain. Material/Methods: 30 subjects from two experimental groups (EG-1 from 15 athletes and EG-2 from 15 non-athletes) were examined, all with chronic lumbar pain. Testing is performed - before and after one month of physiotherapy. The test battery includes: anthropometry (height, body weight); visual-analogue pain scale; Laseg test - for the neurodynamics of n.ischiadicus. Physiotherapy includes hydrotherapy, with a water temperature of 360 – 370 and magnetotherapy with a duration of 30 - 35 min - treatment of the paravertebral muscle in the lumbar region, gluteus and lower limbs - dorsal and ventral. The procedures are applied 3 times a week for one month. Results: Methods and algorithms using a specialized magnetotherapy with underwater water-jet massage for patients with chronic lumbar pain have been developed. Pain on the Visual-Analog Scale of EG-1 athletes was studied - before physiotherapy (with hydrotherapy) X= 4.93±1.39mm, V% = 28.12%, which is an indicator of severe pain in the lumbar region. After 30 days, physiotherapy was reduced to X= 1.53±0.99mm, at V% = 64.59%. Its decrease is 31.03%, P<0.01. Pain beforehysiotherapy was found in EG-2 X= 6.87±1.64mm, at V% = 23.91%. After physiotherapy, it is reduced to X= 1.93±1.49mm, at V%=76.89%, P<0.01. A study of the neurodynamics of n.ischiadicus, through the Laseg test, found that passive flexion in the hip joint of the healthy leg - before physiotherapy with EG-1 hydrotherapy wasX=76.33±8.76o, at V% = 11.47%. After hydrotherapy increased to X= 86.33±5.51o, at V%=6.37%. Passive flexion in the hip joint of the injured leg before hydrotherapy was detected in EG-1. X= 69.67±10.43o, which indicates its strong limit. Post-hydrotherapy X= 80.33±10.08o, at V%=12.55%. P<0.0. In EG-2, the passive flexion in the hip joint – before hydrotherapy, the healthy leg was X= 71.67±14.1o, V% = 19.67%. After hydrotherapy increased to X= 81.53±8.37o. In V% = 10.26%. In the injured leg, passive flexion - before hydrotherapy wasv X= 71.00±11.37o, after it X= 82.07±7.70o, V% = 9.39%. P<0.01. Conclusion: The proven technique and algorithms of hydrotherapy, with a specialized with underwater water-jet massage, is effective for the recovery of persons with chronic lumbar pain. The technique reduces the neurological and pain symptoms and the restoration of n.ischiadicus.

Abstract:

Background: Hydrotherapy (immersion or bathing) is used worldwide to promote relaxation and decrease parturient anxiety and pain in labor, but the psychophysiological effects of this intervention remain obscure. Design: A pretest—posttest design with repeated measures was used to examine the effects of hydrotherapy on maternal anxiety and pain, neuroendocrine responses, plasma volume shift (PVS), and uterine contractions (CXs) during labor. Correlations among variables were examined at three time points (preimmersion and twice during hydrotherapy). Methods: Eleven term women (mean age 24.5 years) in spontaneous labor were immersed to the xiphoid in 37 °C water for 1 hr. Blood samples and measures of anxiety and pain were obtained under dry baseline conditions and repeated at 15 and 45 min of hydrotherapy. Uterine contractions were monitored telemetrically. Results: Hydrotherapy was associated with decreases in anxiety, vasopressin (V), and oxytocin (O) levels at 15 and 45 min (all ps < .05). There were no significant differences between preimmersion and immersion pain or cortisol (C) levels. Pain decreased more for women with high baseline pain than for women with low baseline levels at 15 and 45 min. Cortisol levels decreased twice as much at 15 min of hydrotherapy for women with high baseline pain as for those with low baseline pain. β-endorphin (βE) levels increased at 15 min but did not differ between baseline and 45 min. During immersion, CX frequency decreased. A positive PVS at 15 min was correlated with contraction duration. Conclusions: Hydrotherapy during labor affects neuroendocrine responses that modify psychophysiological processes.

Abstract:

Background: Hydrotherapy is a technique used for pain management during labour, but its safety for both the mother and foetus remains uncertain. Objective: The main aim of this study is to determine whether the use of hydrotherapy in the first stage of labour is safe for both the mother and newborn. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted to collect data from the partogram, maternal and neonatal history. Results: A total of 377 women who gave birth at the Costa del Sol Hospital in Malaga between January 2010 and December 2020 were randomly selected. They were divided into a control group (253 women) and an intervention group (124 women) that used hydrotherapy in the first stage of labour. There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of age, history of previous miscarriages, type of delivery, or newborn weight. The results showed that most women who opted for hydrotherapy were nulliparous, and the use of hydrotherapy during labour was safe for both the mother and foetus. There were no significant differences in the variables of maternal arterial hypotension, postpartum haemorrhage, postpartum maternal fever, foetal complications, neonatal admission, 1 and 5 min Apgar scores, umbilical arterial or venous pH, or foetal cardiotocographic recording. However, there was a significant difference (p = 0.005) in the rate of breastfeeding among mothers who opted for hydrotherapy (96% vs. 85.7%). Conclusions: The use of hydrotherapy during the first stage of labour is safe and is associated with increased breastfeeding rates compared to conventional delivery.

Abstract:

Nowadays, the use of the hydrotherapy method in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a little-known phenomenon. The aim of this article is an attempt to discuss hydrotherapy as an example of a supporting method that can be used in children and adolescents with ASD. This paper presents the most important issues related to the method of hydrotherapy. Research shows that children and adolescents with ASD are less likely to engage in physical activity than their healthy peers. As a result, it can lead to health problems. Regular exercise and physical activity contribute to a better mental and physical well-being of the individual. The use of hydrotherapy brings many positive effects, so it is worth getting to know it better.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Hydrotherapy or aquatic exercise has long been known as a source of postoperative rehabilitation proposed in routine clinical practice. However, the effect on clinical outcome as well as the optimal timing of hydrotherapy in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remain unclear. The purpose of this review was to assess the influence of aquatic physiotherapy on clinical outcomes and evaluate the role of the timing of aquatic-therapy for clinical outcomes after undergoing TKA. Methods An extensive literature search was performed in Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated the impact of hydrotherapy on patients after TKA. The methodological quality of the trials was evaluated based on the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Results All available studies on postoperative hydrotherapy after TKA were included. The primary endpoint was to evaluate the effect of hydrotherapy on clinical outcomes. The secondary outcome was to explore the role of the timing of aquatic therapy for clinical outcomes following TKA. Conclusion Although definitive conclusions could not be reached due to insufficient data, most studies indicated that participants benefited from aquatic-therapy in muscle strength, rather than gait speed, after TKA. Currently available data demonstrated that early postoperative hydrotherapy possessed a greater potential to improve clinical outcomes in main clinical scores and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs).

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background: Migraine is associated with autonomic symptoms. The growing body of literature suggests that the dysfunctional autonomic nervous system might play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of migraine. Thermal therapies have been hypothesized to modulate these changes and alleviate pain. However, data regarding the efficacy of hydrotherapy in migraine remain scant. We evaluated the effect of add on hydrotherapy procedure (a hot arm and foot bath with ice massage to head) in migraine patients. Methods: Forty chronic migraine patients fulfilling the International Classification of Headache Disorders II criteria were recruited from the neurology outpatient clinic. Patients were randomized to receive either hydrotherapy plus conventional pharmacological care (n = 20) or conventional medication only (n = 20). Hydrotherapy group received treatment with hot arm and foot bath (103°F to 110°F) and ice massage to head daily for 20 min for 45 days. Patients were assessed using headache impact test (HIT), visual analog scale for pain and cardiac autonomic function by heart rate variability (HRV) before and after intervention period. Results: There was a significant decrease in HIT score, frequency, and intensity of headaches following treatment in both the groups. However, it was more evident in add on hydrotherapy group compared to pharmacological treatment alone group. There was also significant improvement in the HRV parameters. In particular, there was a significant decrease in heart rate (P = 0.017), increase in high frequency (HF) (P = 0.014) and decrease in low frequency/HF ratio (P = 0.004) in add on hydrotherapy group. Conclusion: Our study shows that add on hydrotherapy enhanced the vagal tone in addition to reducing the frequency and intensity of headaches in migraine patients.
