TECAR THERAPY
Tecar Therapy at Peak Dynamics PT: Advanced Relief for Pain, Injury, and Mobility
Tecar Therapy is a non-invasive, focused treatment that uses gentle radiofrequency energy to stimulate your body’s natural repair systems—without strain, compression, or mechanical force.
Also known as radiofrequency diathermy, this therapy delivers therapeutic heat deep into soft tissues to enhance circulation, reduce inflammation, and restore mobility. Unlike traditional methods, Tecar Therapy works without applying mechanical load—making it ideal for sensitive joints, chronic pain, and post-injury recovery.
Benefits of Tecar Therapy
Tecar Therapy offers a unique combination of deep tissue activation and gentle, non-invasive treatment. It’s especially effective for patients with chronic pain, injury recovery needs, or connective tissue conditions like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and hypermobility. Here’s how it works:
Microcirculation Activation
Lymphatic Drainage Support
Fascial Rehydration
Deep Neuromodulation
No Mechanical Load
Accelerated Recovery

What is Tecar Therapy and how does it work?
Tecar Therapy is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that activates your body’s natural healing processes. It improves circulation, reduces pain, and restores tissue function without applying pressure or strain.
The therapy works by delivering electromagnetic energy through capacitive and resistive electrodes. This stimulates both superficial and deep tissues, increasing blood flow, promoting lymphatic drainage, and enhancing cellular repair. The gentle heat generated encourages fascial glide, reduces inflammation, and helps modulate the nervous system to relieve chronic pain and tension.
Is Tecar Therapy safe for people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome or hypermobility?
Yes. Tecar Therapy is ideal for patients with EDS and generalized hypermobility because it delivers deep therapeutic effects without mechanical load, reducing the risk of joint stress or tissue overstretching.
What does a typical session feel like?
Sessions are relaxing and pain-free. Patients typically feel a gentle warmth in the treated area as circulation improves and fascia begins to release.
How long is each session?
Sessions range from 30 to 60 minutes depending on your treatment plan. Options include targeted region recovery, full-body resets, or combined therapies like Shockwave + Tecar.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions depends on your specific condition and goals. Many patients see improvement after 2–3 sessions, while others benefit from a full series for long-term relief.
How do I schedule an appointment?
Existing patients can schedule through the FIT PHR app. New patients should call (347) 918-5544 to set up an initial consultation and see if Tecar Therapy is right for them.
