The Zimmer Tecar Electrodes are high-quality applicators designed for use with Zimmer Tecar therapy units. They are available in two types—Resistive (RES) and Capacitive (CAP)—to target different tissue structures and therapeutic needs.
Capacitive (CAP) Electrodes
-
Purpose: Designed with a ceramic coating, CAP electrodes deliver energy to superficial, well-vascularized tissues such as muscles and soft tissue layers.
-
Applications: Effective for reducing muscle tension, improving circulation, and treating acute or sub-acute conditions.
-
Available Sizes: Ø 30 mm (small), Ø 50 mm (medium), Ø 70 mm (large).
Resistive (RES) Electrodes
-
Purpose: RES electrodes transmit energy deeper into the body, targeting high-resistance structures such as tendons, ligaments, and joints.
-
Applications: Ideal for chronic pain, joint stiffness, and rehabilitation in sports medicine.
-
Available Sizes: Ø 30 mm (small), Ø 50 mm (medium), Ø 70 mm (large).
