ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for thermotherapy has a plurality of temperature sensors to control a temperature-elevating energy output for allowing temperature which is detected at the temperature sensors to be set to be within a predetermined temperature range. To this end, the apparatus is adapted to select one or a plurality of temperature sensors which are detected at different sites in an area including an affected region to be temperature-elevated, to compare measured data of the selected temperature sensor with predetermined temperature data and to control a temperature-elevating output on the basis of a result of comparison.
