Therefore, during the study, we conducted paraffin bath applications 5 times a week, just like we do in our normative daily practice. Other than the patients who we lost contact with at follow-up, all of the patients were compliant with the therapy sessions. Although this adherence to therapy is a definite strength of our study, such a high level of adherence may be unusual in the daily clinical practice of physical therapy. Future research may also establish the optimal number of treatment sessions for paraffin bath therapy.
