Tecar (Transfer of Energy Capacitive and Resistive) therapy is a method that stimulates the body by using radio waves, which allows the body to heal by creating heat inside of it. Tecar therapy involves the passage of energy in biological tissues, which then activates the natural processes of repair and recovery. This method uses a combination of both diathermy and electrotherapy; however, it does not result in muscle contraction like other forms of electrotherapy. The nerve stimulation of tecar therapy eases inflammation, which results in the reduction of pain.

At BodyPro Chiropractic & Sports Medicine, we offer the most advanced technologies to patients to ensure the best results. Tecar therapy is highly effective and supported by a number of publications, as it has proven to be extremely beneficial for patients receiving physical therapy, rehabilitation, and pain management. Tecar therapy is extremely popular among athletes (both professional and amateur) and other fitness enthusiasts.
