Tecar therapy, delivered using advanced Winback technology, is a modern form of deep electrotherapy that uses high-frequency radio waves to generate gentle, natural heat from within your tissues. This deep warmth boosts blood flow, stimulates your body’s own repair process and relieves pain – reaching muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints that surface treatments simply can’t. Also known as CRET or radiofrequency therapy, Tecar is an effective and comfortable choice for both fresh injuries and long-standing pain.
At Kinetic Care Physiotherapy & Acupuncture Clinic, we use Tecar (Winback) therapy alongside our other treatments to deliver integrated physiotherapy that helps:

Yes. Tecar works especially well alongside manual therapy, exercise rehabilitation and acupuncture. Combining treatments helps relieve pain faster and supports more complete, lasting recovery.

A typical Tecar treatment lasts around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the area and your condition. It's often combined with hands-on therapy or exercise within the same appointment.
