Veterinary Tecar Therapy

Veterinary Tecar Therapy is a treatment that finds application in the veterinary physiotherapy and
rehabilitation field for the treatment of pathologies of the
musculoskeletal system. This physical therapy is a form of thermotherapy, which is a method
that generates heat within the body's tissues for therapeutic purposes.

It is defined as an endogenous thermotherapy because the heat is not radiated from the
outside, but is produced directly inside the tissues by applying a variable high frequency
electric field. Tecar Therapy, by means of handpieces and electrodes, brings the energy
directly to the treated part where the therapeutic action is to be produced.

This therapy can be performed in two distinct ways, more precisely in a capacitive way
or in a resistive way. Depending on the chosen modality, the energy transfer and
biological effects will be completely different.

The capacitive mode acts on the soft tissues (skin, connective tissue, circulatory
and lymphatic system, muscles), while the resistive mode concentrates the
effect on the tissues with greater resistance to the passage of electrical charges
(bone tissue, cartilage, tendons, ligaments).

The therapeutic effects of TECAR Therapy are the biostimulating effect,
the anti-edema effect and the anti-inflammatory effect.
