Acute Injury Management
Muscle tears, ligament sprains and joint trauma. Athermal mode reduces inflammation and swelling in the acute phase without adding heat.

TECAR Therapy For Physiotherapy & Sports Medicine
Professional TECAR therapy systems for physiotherapy clinics, sports medicine and rehabilitation centres. DiaCare 5000 and DiaCare 7000 — the world's leading TECAR devices.
What Is TECAR
Transfer of Energy Capacitive & Resistive
TECAR — Transfer of Energy Capacitive and Resistive — is a form of diathermy that uses high-frequency electromagnetic energy to generate heat from within the tissue itself.
Capacitive mode targets soft tissue: muscles, tendons and fascia. Resistive mode targets harder structures: bone, cartilage, ligaments and joints.
How It Works
The Science Behind TECAR
High-frequency energy causes ions and polar molecules in the tissue to oscillate, creating friction and heat deep within the treated structure. The patient feels only a gentle, comfortable warmth — no muscle contraction or sharp sensation.
The controlled thermal effect increases local blood flow, accelerates cellular metabolism, enhances lymphatic drainage, reduces muscle tension and clears inflammatory mediators. The result is faster healing, reduced pain and improved tissue mobility.
Clinical Applications
Where TECAR Is Used
Chronic Pain Conditions
Chronic back pain, cervical pain, arthrosis and fibromyalgia. TECAR targets poor local circulation and tissue hypoxia.
Post-op Rehabilitation
Recovery after ACL reconstruction, hip and knee replacements, and rotator cuff repair. Documented reduction in recovery times.
Sport Performance & Recovery
Pre-competition warm-up, post-competition recovery and injury prevention — used by Premier League clubs and elite athletes.
Conditions Treated
Clinically Indicated For
- Musculoskeletal injuries — muscle tears, strains and contusions
- Tendinopathies — Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff and hamstring
- Joint pathologies — arthrosis, arthritis and capsulitis
- Ligament sprains — ankle, knee and wrist
- Post-surgical rehabilitation and scar tissue
- Chronic back pain and cervical syndrome
- Disc herniation and sciatic nerve pain
- Fibromyalgia and myofascial pain syndrome
Key Benefits
Why Practitioners Choose TECAR
- Faster healing for acute and chronic injuries
- Deep tissue reach beyond surface therapies
- Immediate pain relief through thermal and neurological effects
- Anti-inflammatory action accelerates resolution
- Rapid muscle relaxation without drugs
- Non-invasive, drug-free and comfortable
- Short sessions — typically 15 to 25 minutes
Who Uses TECAR
From Clinics To Elite Sport
Physiotherapy Clinics
TECAR is one of the most in-demand modalities in physiotherapy, helping clinics attract patients and command higher treatment fees.
Elite Sports Clubs
Premier League football clubs, rugby teams and elite cycling squads use TECAR as a primary soft-tissue tool for injury management and recovery.
Sports Medicine
Sports medicine physicians use TECAR to treat acute injuries and chronic overuse conditions across all disciplines.
Rehabilitation Centres
Post-surgical and neurological rehabilitation centres use TECAR to accelerate recovery, reduce scar tissue and restore function faster than conventional therapy alone.
