INDIBA — Tecar therapy in Barcelona

Radiofrequency that raises tissue temperature from the inside. It lets us work deep structures painlessly, from the acute phase through to return to training.

The current passes through the tissue and generates heat where it is needed, increasing blood flow and speeding up repair. The practical advantage is that it can be applied very early after an injury, when the area still cannot tolerate hands-on work, and also in later phases while the athlete keeps training. In a session it is normally combined with manual therapy and exercise rather than used on its own.

What it is for

Speed up recovery from muscle tears
Treat tendinopathy and overload at depth
Reduce pain and swelling in the acute phase
Keep an athlete training while they recover

Who it is for

Recent muscle injuries, repetitive overload, and in-season athletes who cannot afford to stop.
