• How does Tecar Therapy work?

Tecar therapy is a form of endogenous thermotherapy based on the principle of capacitive and resistive energy transfer (Capacitive-Resistive Diathermy) and it  has an effect within the biological tissues, activating the body's natural repairing and anti-inflammatory processes from within.

Tecar Therapy is a physical therapy that is part of the endogenous thermotherapy, able to significantly reduce recovery and rehabilitation time by stimulating the activation of all the body's natural repair processes.

 

All this thanks to the application of radiofrequency current, that causes a thermal reaction in the tissues that stimulates the body's natural healing response with immediate anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects on muscles, tendons, cartilage or bones ligaments.

​

• How many sessions of Tecar therapy I need?

​

Therefore, the amount of sessions necessary depends on the severity of the patient's condition and how they respond to the treatment. For acute conditions, 3-5 sessions is usually sufficient but there may be more sessions necessary for chronic conditions.
