WinBack TECAR Therapy is an advanced treatment we use in physical therapy to help decrease pain, improve movement, and support the body’s natural recovery process. It uses gentle radiofrequency energy that travels through the tissues while your therapist works directly on the injured area. Most patients describe the treatment as comfortable and relaxing, often with a mild warming sensation.
One of the things we like about WinBack is that it can be used while we are treating you—during manual therapy, stretching, mobility work, or movement—rather than simply putting a machine on you and walking away.
WinBack TECAR therapy may be helpful for:
Muscle strains and sports injuries
Tendon and ligament injuries
Sprains
Back and neck pain
Shoulder, hip, and knee pain
Joint stiffness and limited mobility
Overuse injuries
Chronic muscle and joint pain
Recovery following certain surgeries or injuries
TECAR therapy works by delivering controlled radiofrequency energy through the body using capacitive and resistive treatment techniques. This can create gentle heat within the tissues, increase local circulation, decrease pain, and making it easier to move and work on the area.
At MINT Physical Therapy, we don't look at WinBack as a stand-alone treatment or a quick fix. We use it as another tool to help calm irritated tissue, improve movement, and help you get more out of your physical therapy so you can move better and get back to doing what you want to do.
