Infrared, sometimes called infrared light, is electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than those of visible light. It is therefore invisible to the human eye. IR is generally understood to encompass wavelengths from the nominal red edge of the visible spectrum around 700 nanometers, to 1 millimeter.

IFT which stands for Interferential Therapy is one of the types of electrotherapy used for the management of pain. The principle of interferential therapy is to cause two medium frequency currents of slightly different frequencies to interfere with one another. For example, if circuit A carries a current with the frequency of 4000Hz and Circuit B carry a current with a frequency of 3980 Hz, then the low frequency produced will be 20 Hz and this frequency is very useful in pain modulation. A new low-frequency current known as the beat frequency is equal to the difference in frequencies between the two medium frequency currents produced in the tissues at the point where the two currents cross.
It is basically used for the treatment of Chronic, Post Traumatic, and Post-surgical pains. The basic principle involves the utilization of effects of low frequencies (<250pps) without painful or unpleasant side effects. The major advantage of IFT is that it produces effects in the tissue, exactly where required without unnecessary and uncomfortable skin stimulation. This technique is widely used to elicit muscle contraction, promote healing and reduce edema.
Vector effect: The interference field is rotated to an angle of 450 in each direction, the field thus covers a wider area. This is useful in diffuse pathology or if the site of the lesion cannot be accurately localized.
Frequency swing: Some equipment allows a variation in the speed of the frequency swing. A rhythmic mode may be a continuous swing from 0 to 100 Hz in 5-10s and back in similar time or it may hold for 1-6s at one frequency followed by 1-6s at another frequency with a variable time to swing between the two.
Constant frequency: Some treatments may be carried out with the interference fixed at a certain frequency. Rhythmic frequency is useful if several types of tissues are to be treated at once. A variation in the frequency also overcomes the problem of tissue accommodation where the response of a particular tissue decreases with time.
WORKING PRINCIPLE: Interferential current therapy works by sending small amounts of electrical stimulation to damaged tissues in the body. The therapy is meant to boost the body's natural process of responding to pain, by increasing circulation thus produces hormones that promote healing. IFT delivers intermittent pulses to stimulate surface nerves and block the pain signal, by delivering continuous deep stimulation into the affected tissue. IFT relieves pain, increases circulation, decreases edema, and stimulates the muscles. A frequency of 100Hz may stimulate the large diameter A-beta fibers, which have an effect on the pain gate, and inhibit the transmission of small-diameter nociceptive traffic ( C and A-delta fiber), which effectively closes the gait to painful impulses. Interferential current Increases the circulation of blood thus reduces swelling.
Wax therapy, which uses a bath of molten paraffin wax, is one of the most effective ways of applying heat to improve mobility by warming the connective tissues. Wax therapy is mainly used on your hands along with an exercise program.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

◦ Ultraviolet radiations are the electromagnetic energy which falls between
visible rays and X-rays and have wavelength between 10 nm and 400 nm.
◦ Ultraviolet radiations are invisible to the human eye
◦ Ultraviolet radiations transmit much more energy than the visible
radiations.
◦ The therapeutic part of the ultraviolet spectrum may be divided into:
◦ UVA: Wavelength 315–400 nm
◦ UVB: Wavelength 280–315 nm
◦ UVC: Wavelength below 280 nm

4. Production of UVR
Ultraviolet rays are emitted by the sun but for therapeutic purposes, some
form of generator is used.
◦ Generators produce ultraviolet rays from mercury. Various types of
generators are used such as :
◦ High pressure mercury vapour lamp
◦ Kromayer’s lamp
◦ Fluorescent tubes
◦ Theraktin tunnel
◦ PUVA apparatus

5. High pressure
mercury vapour
lamp
The electrons move toward the positive terminal and positive
ions move toward the negative terminal, collision between
moving ions and neutral argon atom causes further ionization
and a glow of discharge is produced. Also, sufficient heat is
produced to vaporize the liquid mercury inside the tube .
It consists of a U-
shaped glass tube,
filled with argon gas at
a low pressure. Small
amount of mercury is
enclosed in the tube
and the tube is sealed
at both the ends.
At the ends of the
glass tube, electrodes
are placed, enclosed in
metal caps across
which a high potential
difference is applied

6. Kromayers
lamp
◦ It can be used in contact with the body tissues absorbed by the circulating
water so there is no danger of burns.
The Kromayer’s lamp
is a water-cooled
mercury vapour lamp
which eliminates the
danger of burn and
absorbs infrared rays
Kromayer’s lamp can
also be used to treat
sinuses or deep body
cavities.
Direct contact method
can also be used as it
minimizes the danger
of burn07-06-2020 anniet250999@gmail.com 6
7. Fluorescent tube : Each tube is about 120 cm long and is made up of a
glass which allows long ultraviolet rays to pass. The inside of tube is coated
with phosphor. The spectrum of each tube depends upon the type of
phosphor coating. A low pressure arc is set up inside the tube by the
process of ionization. Phosphor is used to absorb short wave ultraviolet
rays and these are reemitted at longer wavelengths.
◦ Therakitin tunnel
◦ It is a semicylindricular framework in
which four fluorescent tubes are
mounted in its own reflector in such a
way that an even irradiation of a
patient is achieved
◦ Normally, fluorescent tubes with a
spectrum of 280–400 nm are used
◦ PUVA Apparatus:
◦ Irradiation with UVA may be performed
with fluorescent tubes which may be
mounted in a vertical battery on a wall or on
four sides of a box totally surrounding the
patient.
◦ This form of ultraviolet rays are usually given
for two hours after the patient has taken a
photoactive drug such as Psoralen,
