Discover the Benefits of TECAR Therapy in North Oshawa and Ajax, ON

Are you struggling with lingering pain, muscle tightness, or slow recovery after an injury? TECAR therapy at Elements Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation offers several benefits to help facilitate your body’s healing process so you can work through your rehabilitation and return to the activities that matter most.

TECAR Therapy: A Gentle Yet Powerful Treatment Technique

TECAR stands for Transcutaneous Energy Capacitive and Resistive therapy. It’s a non-invasive treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate your body’s natural ability to heal. A specialized device delivers controlled energy through the skin to the injured area. This energy increases circulation, improves tissue oxygenation, and encourages cell repair, giving you a boost in your recovery process.

What to Expect During a Session

One of our technicians will apply a conductive gel to the treatment area to help the device glide smoothly and deliver energy effectively. We’ll then use a handheld electrode that gently passes radiofrequency energy through your tissues. Most patients describe the sensation as soothing warmth, similar to a gentle massage with added deep relief.

TECAR therapy sessions at Elements Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation typically last 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated and the goals of the therapy. You stay awake and relaxed throughout, and many people even find it soothing.

TECAR therapy works best when combined with other physiotherapy techniques, such as therapeutic exercise. Your physiotherapist will discuss a plan tailored to your needs so you get the best results.
