Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (a) Infra-red radiation
Explanation
Infra-red radiation is used in physiotherapy to relieve body aches and muscle pain.
It penetrates the skin and generates heat, improving blood circulation and relaxing stiff muscles.
Unlike UV radiation (which can damage tissue), infra-red is a safe, non-invasive heat therapy for arthritis and sprains.
