Tecar

Radiofrequency therapy (Tecar Therapy) is a modern method, which through the transfer of energy without radiation, is able to stimulate and accelerate the natural process of regeneration and healing of damaged tissues, thus accelerating the restoration of motor function.

The production of high frequency electromagnetic energy (radio frequency) has the effect of enhancing the physiological processes that the body would carry out in order to cope and heal the injury both at the cellular level and locally through thermal and metabolic reactions.

Benefits of radio frequency therapy:

  • Immediate pain relief

  • Blood flow increase
