After the accident my neck was stiff every morning and I had a headache by lunch. TECAR was the first treatment that made a real difference.

I'm an ER nurse. The first steps out of bed used to make me wince, and by the end of a shift I was limping. Twelve-hour shifts are manageable again.

Minh T., L.Ac.Acupuncturist and owner, Golden Crane Acupuncture & Herbs, HoustonMy patients already trust heat and herbs. TECAR reaches deeper than moxa or a heat lamp, and the herbal gel fits the way I practice. I use it before needling, and the muscle is already softer when I start.
Rachel S., PT, DPTPhysical therapist and owner, Lamar Street Physical Therapy, AustinTECAR gets the tissue ready faster, so my patients spend more of each visit on exercise. Many of them also book TECAR-only sessions between their regular visits.
Dr. Brian K., DCChiropractor, Lower Greenville Chiropractic, DallasPatients ask about it in the waiting room after they see someone walk out of the treatment room moving easily. It fits between the exam and the adjustment, and the adjustment goes more smoothly after it.
Ten minutes of TECAR before deep tissue work and the muscle softens much sooner. It's easier on my hands, and clients notice the difference on the first visit.
