The TECARPULS is a special device for CET therapy (Capacitive
Energy Transfer), a non-invasive treatment that awakens the body’s
natural ability to self-regenerate, using a frequency of 500 kHz.
The TECARPULS produces “deep heating” in a controlled manner
using electromagnetic energy (diathermy). The reactions produced
by the TECARPULS through capacitive electrodes are focused on
soft tissues, muscles and peri-articular structures.
The transfer of energy generates optimal, local deep heat, which
immediately increases local circulation, reduces pain, improves
elasticity and therefore improves mobility. The main advantage is
that it significantly shortens recovery time in the event of acute and
chronic injuries.
TECAR therapy has been used with great success since 1988. Several
clinical reports from research institutes worldwide have proven
its remarkable effect on various injuries as seen in dermatology,
traumatology and sports medicine. The localized induction of deep
heat in the treated area causes an expansion of blood vessels, an
increase in blood flow and an increase in metabolic rate.
It also leads to higher elasticity in soft connective tissues improving
flexibility. In addition, the localized warming lowers muscle tone.
Stimulation of the thick nerve fibres provides increased nerve
conduction velocity, giving the patient a clear advantage with regard
to pain relief when starting rehabilitation.
The physiological responses are mainly attributed to heat output,
which is directly related to total power output. Heat, as applied
through diathermy, is a common treatment during a physical therapy
treatment regimen.
