Products Description

Product Details

TECAR therapy is a generic acronym, which has been derived from an early radiofrequency device made by INDIBA®. It is used to describe non-ablative and non-invasive radiofrequency electric current devices. The ‘History’ tab goes into more detail about where this acronym comes from.

TECAR is an energy-based device that works with currents in a range from 300KHz to 448KHz, although some operate up to 10MHz or higher, these limits are not considered strict. The main purpose of the radiofrequency device is to increase local tissue temperature. The electrically induced heat is historically known as diathermy. Diathermy is purported to trigger a chain reaction in the body, which is responsible for many therapeutic effects, one of them is stimulating the body’s natural repair processes.

In radiofrequency the local temperature increase is called hyperthermia. The effects of hyperthermia will depend on the temperature reached, how long temperature is maintained, as well as the protocol of application.

Some examples of issues that can be treated by hyperthermia;

• Muscle contractures
• Chronic pain
• Pelvic floor disorders
• Rehab
• Skin flaccidity
• Fat deposit

Here are 3 main areas in which non-ablative radiofrequency application can be used.

• In therapy, it is used by physiotherapists for the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions. It is widely found in professional sport to prepare their athletes for competition, post-competition recovery and in the treatment of acute/chronic injuries.

• Doctors are increasingly using it in aesthetic medicine as a complementary technique to enhance surgery, filler treatment effects and as a non-invasive treatment for skin tightening and body contouring.

• In the veterinary field, it is still relatively new but early research supports its use. Both Equine and small animals are benefitting from the technology. Devices are manufactured with increased safety considerations for this specialist area.

Function
Muscle relaxation
Theprecise and aimed effect of the Targeted Radiofrequency Therapy on the hypertonic muscle fibers causes their immediate relaxation. The effect of myorelaxation is primarily based on vasodilation, which occurs immediately during the therapy and is responsible for higher supply of nutrients into the tissue.

Tissue regeneration and healing
The improvement of tissue metabolism is a natural and valuable secondary outcome of the therapy. It leads to faster healing of the traumatized soft tissue and faster reabsorption of post-injury haematomas.

Edema reduction
The walls of the arterioles are enlarged and the precapillary sphincters relaxed, allowing increased local blood perfusion. This leads to an increase of the lymphatic processes (drainage) and subsequently to reduction of the edema.

Pain relief
The principal effect of the Targeted Radiofrequency Therapy–the pain relief–results from muscle relaxation, edema reduction, tissue regeneration and healing.

What are the advantages for patients?

Faster functional recovery. (The beneficial effects are apparent after just a few sessions and improvements can be observed even 24 hours after treatment.)

Treatment is painless and relaxing.

Treatments are safe and have high therapeutic efficacy.

Promotes a sense of well-being, predisposing the subject towards post-treatment physical activity.

Faster rehabilitation.

Traumatology

Tecar Therapy plays a fundamental role in the therapeutic treatment of traumatic pathologies, and represents a source of bioenergy which associates with classic rehabilitative methods in a synergistic manner.Tecar Therapy rebalances tissue physiology through the focused transfer of energy, generating deep, uniform hyperaemia, to reestablish homoeostasis in the cells of the tissues treated. Smart Tecar Therapy resets and reinforces the auto repair capacity of tissues.

Fat removal

Tecar Therapy proposes an innovative physioaesthetic methodology, using an adaptive system to treat skin imperfections such as localized accumulations of fat. Both automatic and manual application in the natural thermal mode release focused heat in the area treated, which causes metabolic activation and an increase in microcirculation. The areas treated are rich in lipase enzymes which are responsible for lipid metabolism. After a few applications the fat absorption process can be noted, causing an immediate reduction of excess waistline, to quickly achieve well-being.

FAQ

Is Smart Tecar Therapy painful?

Smart tecar Therapy is not painful. During the treatment the patient feels a pleasant warm sensation, which makes

the therapy extremely comfortable.

Is Smart Tecar Therapy dangerous?

SmartTecar Therapy is absolutely not dangerous.Tecar Therapy supplies energy to biological tissues generating a pleasant warmth. Therapy is comfortable and relaxing.

How many Smart Tecar Therapy treatments are necessary?

The number of treatments required depends primarily upon the pathological condition of the patient and how the patient reacts to the therapy. For some acute pathologies, 3 to 5 treatments may be sufficient, while for chronic pathologies a greater number of treatments may be required. Obviously, in order to optimize therapeutic results, correct diagnosis is of fundamental importance.

How frequently can the patient be treated?

Normally the patient can be treated between 2 to 5 times a week. However, if necessary, more than one treatment can be carried out daily. The professional operator will define the number of treatments most suitable for the patient depending upon the state of the pathology.

How long does treatment take?

Smart Tecar Therapy treatments can vary in duration from a few minutes to some tens of minutes, depending upon

the pathology, the required effect and the size of the area to be treated.
