I-TECHAR TECAR THERAPY

I-TECHAR - professional Tecar - Therapy

Diathermy, also known as TECAR Therapy (meaning Capacitive and Resistive Energy Transfer), is a therapy stimulating the physiological healing process by accelerating the recovery time of motor function. Diathermy stimulates tissues endogenous heat production through the interaction of electromagnetic field and tissue. The heat is increased in a uniform controlled way. The electromagnetic interaction results in a ionic flow and consequently increases blood flow in the treated area. This process stimulates endogenous substances release (in particular cortisol and endorphins) that are necessary to reduce inflammations, pain and edemas. The new I-TECH.AR resistive/capacitive diathermy is a modern and highly performing device easy to use by professionals. Pre-programmes help use the device from the start. Moreover the device can set parameters (power, time therapy, capacitive/resistive modes) according to therapeutic needs. It is provided with SMART CARD to allow the memorization of customized programmes. In this way patient protocols are easily consulted by therapists at any time. I-TECH.AR is equipped with a wide graphic display showing therapy parameters and different working modes. Menu can be easily scrolledby a comfortable control knob.

Capacitive mode
Electrode coated with ceramic material (mobile) and return plate (fixed). Indicated especially for soft tissues (muscle mass and lymphatic/vascular system).
Benefits: specific intervention; easy control of the treated area.

Resistive mode
Non isolated electrode (mobile) and return plate (fixed). Indicated especially for tissues with greater resistance (bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, cartilages).
Benefits: high level of diathermy; chronic diseases with fibrosis and degeneration

Applications
