- Abstract
The Tecar therapy is evidence of the way in which advanced technology can be used in sports medicine, for the rehabilitation of traumas. The TECAR technology is not painful, invasive or hard to tolerate, without side effects, with a time limit and several sessions being assimilated within the recovery process. The purpose of this paper is to use this therapy in sports traumatology. The subjects of the research were two athletes practicing performance handball with left inguinal ligamentous and muscular sprain and epicondylitis of the higher limb. After applying the Tecar therapy and the physical therapy program, we have noted a favourable recovery of the two athletes. This study confirms the efficiency of this therapy in the recovery of sports traumas. Whereas this technology is beneficial, with visible results, its use without physical therapy can create a "boomerang effect".
