A gentle but powerful radiofrequency treatment designed to support healing, reduce pain and improve tissue recovery. aka TECAR therapy
INDIBA Therapy
INDIBA is an evidence-based radiofrequency treatment also known as TECAR therapy that supports the body’s natural healing processes by improving circulation, reducing inflammation and stimulating tissue repair.
Using a unique and highly stable 448kHz frequency, INDIBA can be used to support recovery after surgery, improve scar tissue mobility, reduce pain and support both pelvic health and musculoskeletal rehabilitation with amazing results.
Treatments are gentle, non-invasive and deeply relaxing and results are instantaneous
Helps reduce pain and irritation in acute and chronic conditions
Supports circulation, repair and cellular recovery
Helps improve mobility, softness and tissue function
Can support postnatal healing and pelvic rehabilitation
INDIBA can be used to support a wide range of women’s health and musculoskeletal conditions, from post-surgical recovery and scar tissue healing to persistent pain and injury rehabilitation.
Treatment is always tailored to the individual and integrated into a wider osteopathic and rehabilitation approach.
INDIBA can be particularly supportive during postnatal recovery and in pelvic health conditions where tissues may feel weakened, restricted, painful or slow to heal.
The treatment helps support circulation, tissue repair and muscle function, whilst also helping many women feel more connected to and comfortable in their bodies again after birth or surgery.
Caesarean recovery
Episiotomy healing
Scar tissue & adhesions
Diastasis recti
Pelvic floor recovery
Chronic pelvic pain
Vaginal dryness
Anal fissures
INDIBA is an incredible tool for treating scar tissue and massively speeds up post-surgical repair. I have seen first hand time and again the incredible speed and quality of scar tissue healing when INDIBA is used. For post-surgical recovery treatment can start almost immediately due to the flexible nature of INDIBA it can be used to treat acute conditions and chronic conditions.
Post c-section and episiotomy and after any surgery such as a laparoscopy it will speed up healing and improve the quality of scar tissue healing in the long run.
INDIBA is highly effective for any MSK rehabilitation. It will speed up repair of muscle and ligament sprains. I commonly use it for ankle ligament sprains and can be used at acute and chronic stages of repair. Its also very effective for tedonitis and bone fracture repair. A highly versatile tool that support circulation, tissue repair and muscle function.
Using INDIBA in a functional mode supports muscle toning and strengthening – its great for teaching reactivation of the abdominal muscles post c-section and birth. It also supports improving range of motion.
Because of all this it is the go to healing modality in premiership football clubs and with racehorses!
Recovery Stories
Every recovery journey is different.
Below are some of the ways INDIBA has been used within Rebecca’s practice to support healing, reduce pain and improve recovery after surgery, injury and postnatal changes.

Supporting Natural Healing
I chose this technology for my practice as it is one of the deepest acting machines on the market for promoting healing and the best thing I know for supporting scar tissue repair. Its been included in studies by Professor Tim Watson who found it to be the deepest acting of all electrotherapy devices. I experienced INDIBA therapy myself when I was recovering from a hip injury and was amazed at the results and decided to invest in it in my clinic and I have not looked back.
What surprises most patients is both how pleasant and relaxing it feels and how they can feel the changes in the tissues instantaneously. Scarring feels immediately softer, swelling and pain reduces and movement improves.
I use this alot post surgery as it markedly improves the healing process and reduces scarring. Its powerful in treating acute injury cases as again tissue repair is accelerated and I see amazing results – for instance acute ankle sprains or trauma the speed of healing is impressive. And it’s great on chronic cases too.
And I love the fact that this machine is so flexible and can be used on so many different conditions, stages of healing just by adjusting the mode of application. The research and training department at the headquarters in Barcelona is second to none and this level of training has enabled me to optimally use this technology for a wide range of conditions but also for specialist women’s health – pelvic and abdominal work.
“After just one session I felt immediate relief and made life instantly easier”
“I was in quite a lot of discomfort with my episiotomy following the birth of my son, which was impacting my postnatal recovery when Rebecca suggested INDIBA treatment. After just one session I felt immediate relief and made life instantly easier. The treatment is pain free and relaxing. I’ve now had two sessions and I’m so pleased I’ve been able to do this and start the healing process.“

The Treatment Experience
INDIBA treatment is gentle, non-invasive and often deeply relaxing.
Depending on the stage of healing and the area being treated, sessions may involve either a non-thermal setting or a warming sensation designed to support circulation and tissue repair.
Treatment is always adapted to the individual, their stage of recovery and what their body feels ready for.
People notice changes immediately after each session:
Due to its monopolar action it is one of the deepest acting electrotherapy devices on the market. It is also one of the most versatile in terms of stages of healing it can be used.
INDIBA is the name of the company who produces these high quality machines and has been the leader in the market for the last few decades.
The therapy itself uses radiofrequency waves at a low and fixed and very stable frequency of 448khz. This has been found in research to be the most effective for tissue repair and healing.
Other names for the therapy are:
TECAR – transfer of energy Capacitive and Resitive – these are 2 modes which have complementary tissue benefits
Radiofrequency Diathermy – the diathermy part relates to heat however INDIBA can be used and is effective in different ways with and without heat
CRET/CRMRF – Monopolar capactive-resistive radiofrequency – in INDIBA the energy passes deeply through the body from an electrode to a return plate
INDIBA is incredibly safe and gentle and I have completed extensive training in its safe and effective use. I am monitoriing and getting feedback constantly whilst using to ensure optimal results. It is very pleasant to receive. No oils should be applied to the skin prior to receiving treatment and a patented conductive cream is used in the treatment.
Treatment should not be carried out on anyone with a pacemaker or who is pregnant or who has suspected blood clots.
It can be used for a very wide range of conditions and both acute and chronic states. It is widely used:
I am a big fan of red light therapy and the 2 therapies are very complementary – both stimulate healing responses and energise tissues. INDIBA does have the capacity to penetrate much deeper than red light therapy and has more flexibility in terms of how it is used and what it can benefit.
INDIBA is a non-invasive radiofrequency therapy that uses a specific frequency of 448 kHz to deliver energy to the body’s tissues.
I use INDIBA alongside my osteopathic work to support people experiencing musculoskeletal pain, injuries, scar tissue concerns and certain pelvic health difficulties.
The treatment can be adapted to different areas of the body and may be used on its own or alongside other hands-on techniques, depending on your needs.
INDIBA may be used as part of scar management, including following a C-section, episiotomy or other surgery.
Scar tissue can sometimes feel tight, uncomfortable or sensitive, particularly when it affects movement or the surrounding tissues.
I may combine INDIBA with gentle hands-on osteopathic techniques, depending on the scar, its stage of healing and your individual needs.
We’ll assess the area together and discuss whether this approach may be suitable for you.

We’ll begin by discussing your symptoms, health history and the area you’d like support with.
INDIBA uses radiofrequency energy delivered through a handheld applicator placed against the skin, with a conductive cream to help the treatment.
I’ll adjust the treatment to suit your needs and comfort, and depending on your concerns, I may also combine INDIBA with osteopathic techniques or other hands-on treatment.
We’ll discuss what to expect and whether any follow-up sessions may be helpful.
INDIBA is generally a comfortable treatment. You may feel a gentle warmth in the area being treated, although some applications produce very little noticeable heat.
The sensation depends on the area being treated and the intensity used. I’ll adjust the treatment throughout the session and check that you’re comfortable.
You should always let me know if anything feels uncomfortable so we can adjust or stop the treatment.
INDIBA isn’t suitable for everyone, so we’ll always discuss your health history before deciding whether treatment is appropriate.
There are certain circumstances where INDIBA shouldn’t be used, including during pregnancy or if you have a pacemaker or certain other electronic implants.
Other health conditions, medications or recent procedures may also need additional consideration.
If INDIBA isn’t suitable for you, we can discuss whether another approach might be more appropriate.
If you’re recovering from surgery, managing pain or looking for support with scar tissue, pelvic health or rehabilitation, INDIBA therapy can help support healing and recovery in a gentle and targeted way.
