TECAR Therapy - Thermo TK

TECAR therapy is a form of combined contact diathermy and electrotherapy that does not generate muscle contractions, but works by way of bio stimulation in the deeper tissues,  it works in the therapeutic wavelength range of 300 KHz to 1.2MHz.

The low intensity of this therapy ensures the treatment is completely non-invasive and 100% natural to the human body. Research has shown that its therapeutic effects naturally stimulate tissue regeneration and reduce pain. Vasodilation which is produced by the heating effect increases the exchange of substances causing drainage of the inflamed area and an influx of repairing cells. TECAR therapy also helps with pain, by stimulation of endorphin production.

TECAR can help with:

1. Joint pain, tendon and muscle pathologies

2. Acute and chronic pain

3. Musculoskeletal injuries

4. Muscle spasms

5. Circulation problems, lymphatic drainage and others related to the venous and lymphatic system

ThermoTK

Deep heat through high-frequency electrotherapy is an internationally widely used and proven method in physical therapy.

Inspired by the highest standards

ThermoTK generates adjustable, deeply penetrating heat.

The deep heat which develops in the tissue causes a local increase in circulation and dilation of blood vessels. Treatment techniques specific to the therapist can have a positive effect on the elasticity of the connective tissue.

Through the effect of heat alone, the tone in the muscles decreases, which has a positive effect on pain relief for the patient.

Working together with your patient

Therapist-specific motions during the therapy can help additionally relax tissue. ThermoTK has a broad spectrum of indications and can be used for acute as well as chronic conditions. Deep heat therapy combined with the use of manual therapy offer you outstanding treatment options. Expand your range of services and treat your patients even more effectively.
