Why Moist Heat Preparation Matters

Moist heat increases tissue extensibility more effectively than dry heat. It improves local circulation and reduces muscle guarding before manipulation or deep tissue work. This preparation enhances treatment outcomes and patient comfort during subsequent therapeutic interventions.
