Doctor Tecar Therapy: not a simple tecar therapy
Doctor Tecar Therapy is a medical treatment that uses high-frequency alternating electrical currents to
deliver energy to biological tissues for therapeutic purposes.
deliver energy to biological tissues for therapeutic purposes.
Doctor Tecar Therapy mechanism of action
Various scientific studies have shown that biological tissues modify their conductivity and permectivity as the frequency of the currents passing through them changes. Doctor Tecar Therapy, thanks to its innovative multi-frequency generator, emits alternating electric currents at variable frequencies that allow energy to be delivered to different biological structures for therapeutic purposes.
Doctor Tecar Therapy can emit variable-frequency alternating current with the widest frequency range currently available (from 300 kHz to 1.5 MHz), thus making it possible to administer energy to different biological structures in the same treatment.
Current with frequencies between 300 kHz and 500 kHz interacts more and releases energy to 'hard' tissues with less fluid, such as bones, tendons and ligaments.
The new rehabilitation frontier
Doctor Tecar Therapy treats superficial and deep pathologies of the musculoskeletal system. With its mechanical, thermal and electrical action, it interacts with the biological tissues activating and accelerating the natural processes of repair and recovery.
The contact between the Doctor Tecar Therapy applicator and the patient's skin generates a mechanical effect.
Doctor Tecar Therapy's variable-frequency alternating current generates heat in biological tissues through the joule effect.
Doctor Tecar Therapy polarises the cell membrane, mainly at the frequency of 448 kHz, as proven by various scientific studies.
The effects of Doctor Tecar Therapy
BIOSTIMULANT
By transmitting the correct dose of energy to the tissue, it generates polarisation of the cell membranes. The resulting flow of electrolytes promotes transmembrane exchanges in the cell, balancing the intra- and extra-cellular matrix and reactivating all metabolic processes.
ANTALGIC
By generating the hyperpolarisation of the fast fibres through the rapid oscillation of the electromagnetic field, it prevents the propagation of the painful stimulus, offering the patient a gradual regression of symptoms and a feeling of rediscovered well-being.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
Using the Biotransfer algorithm, it doses the energy and controls the vasodilatation so that the naturally thermal state of the tissue can generate the flushing of inflammatory catabolites in the injured region.
ANTI-OEDEMIGENOUS
By causing a localised increase in tissue temperature, it stimulates the circulatory system to thermoregulate. The resulting strong vascularisation and vasodilation of ischaemic areas promotes an immediate increase in haemolymph mobility.
DECONTRACTING
By increasing localised heat, it causes vasodilation. This increases arterial blood flow, ensuring proper muscular oxygenation of poorly vascularised areas where contractures or muscle fibrosis are present, providing immediate benefits.
ABSORPTION OF TOXINS
When used during/immediately after rehabilitation or in the convalescence phase, Doctor Tecar Therapy activates the lymphatic system, accelerating the circulation and thus the absorption of lactic acid crystallised in the muscle, eliminating the feeling of pain.
For which pathologies is Doctor Tecar Therapy recommended?
For all acute and chronic diseases of the locomotor system, in particular:
PAIN
By stimulating the microcirculation and acting on free nerve endings, it rebalances the membrane potentials of
nociceptors and blocks the painful sensation through the release of endorphins.

EDEMAS
By stimulating the circulatory system and increasing blood flow, it collects catabolites and excess fluid,
reducing edema, swelling and pain sensation.

LATENT TRIGGER POINTS
By acting directly on trigger points in combination with massage, it promotes rapid vascularisation

What do you think about Doctor Tecar Therapy?
"Thanks to Doctor Tecar Therapy, the athletes treated by the medical staff of the Italian Rowing Federation have a valuable ally for the treatment and prevention of muscular pathologies. This technology-based therapy, which produces current at various frequencies, allows biological tissues to be treated with greater precision and effectiveness.”
Prof. Antonio Spataro,
“ Sports physician - president of the medical commission of the Italian Rowing Federation”
“ Sports physician - president of the medical commission of the Italian Rowing Federation”
“The ability to deliver different frequencies makes Doctor Tecar Therapy an innovative and highly effective therapy. By delivering the correct frequency according to the type of tissue being treated, we are able to guarantee greater therapeutic precision with a more precise selection of the correct current wavelength according to the different tissue characteristics.”
Physiotherapist Umberto Improta,
“ Head of physiotherapists first team Atalanta BC”
" After intense training it is very useful to help the athlete in the treatment of possible muscle contractures. One of the methods that has helped us a lot in the treatment of contractures is certainly Doctor Tecar Therapy. Thanks to its ease of use, correct emission frequencies and adequate power, this technology has helped us for years in treating our athletes.”
