AB  - OBJECTIVESFollowing  completion  of  this  chapter,  the  student  will  be  able  to:List  and  describe  the  different  forms  of  energy  used  with  therapeutic  modalities.Classify  the  various  modalities  according  to  the  type  of  energy  utilized  by  each.Analyze  the  relationship  between  wavelength  and  frequency  for  electromagnetic  energy.Discuss  the  electromagnetic  spectrum  and  how  various  modalities  that  use  electromagnetic  energy  are  related.Explain  how  the  laws  governing  the  effects  of  electromagnetic  energy  apply  to  diathermy,  light  therapy  (LASER,  LED),  and  ultraviolet  light.Discuss  how  the  thermal  energy  modalities,  thermotherapy  and  cryotherapy,  transfer  heat  through  conduction.Explain  the  various  ways  electrical  energy  can  be  used  to  produce  a  therapeutic  effect.Compare  and  contrast  the  properties  of  electromagnetic  and  sound  energy.Explain  how  intermittent  compression,  traction,  massage,  and  vibration  use  mechanical  energy  to  produce  a  therapeutic  effect.
