TECAR is an acronym for Capacitive and Resistive Energy Transfer. The use of TECAR technology is of major importance in rehabilitation therapies since it reduces pain, stimulates venous drainage in the lymphatic system, significantly reduces both muscular and back pain TECAR is used to treat disorders such as sprains,tendonitis, bursitis, osteoarticular distractions, chronic arthralgias, contractures, strains and muscular tears,myositis, pathologies of joint capsules, arthritic processes,lumbago and sciatica. Therapy is widely useful for treating all types of sports injuries.
Capacitive Capacitive
the therapeutic target is soft tissue - usually tissue with the highest water content and high electricaln conductance such as the dermis, the lymphatic system, the venous system and Muscles etc. Capacitive can penetrate subcutaneous tissue 3-4CM. The max frequency :385KHZ power 300W
Resistive Resistance
the therapeutic target is tissue with the highest electrical resistance, such as deep muscles, joints,tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bones etc. Resistive can penetrate subcutaneous tissue 8-10CM. The max frequency:300KHZ Power 300W
Effects of TECAR Therapy
1.reduces pain
2.improves superficial and deep blood circulation
3.improves tissue regeneration
4.stimulates venous and lymphatic drainage
5.affects the restoration of metabolic balance activity
Indications For Treatment
1.various muscular pathologies (contracture, muscle tears, bruises and swelling)
2.injuries, osteoarticular distractions and wear of the joints (shoulder, hip, knee, ankle joints)
3.pathology of the elbow, wrist and arm (epicondylitis, tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome)
4.cervical, thoracic and lumbar pathology
5.inflammation and damage to the Achilles tendon, and patellar ligament
6.tendonitis and calcination in the area of the shoulder joint acute and chronic edema
Operation
(1) Clean the treatment part. Apply some gel
(2) According to the treatment part to select appropriate handpiece
(3) Set suitable parameter
(4) Operating on. Beautician hold the work head in one hand place the handpiece on treatment area. During operation, hold the work head in one hand. The Circuit Board should be place near to be treated, can move the handle slightly in order to cover the whole area. After the time is finished, and restart the next round.
