TECAR application

Radiofrequency (RF) is the emission of high frequency waves via an applicator. The transfer of electromagnetic energy stimulates targeted tissues. RF can be used in two ways: capacitive or resistive The capacitive mode (CET) concentrates the energy to target soft tissues containing electrolytes: muscles, vascular or lymphatic tissues. The resistive mode (RET) targets denser tissues containing more fat and fiber (such as bones, ligaments and tendons). High frequency waves penetrate deep into tissues and increase both exchanges and temperature and a recent study has demonstrated the effects of RF on the skin microcirculation and the intramuscular blood flow
