Human TECAR on Exercise Preconditioning and Post-exercise Recovery


Sponsor

University of Nove de Julho

Enrollment

50 participants

Start Date

Apr 23, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

TECAR therapy (Transfer of Energy Capacitive and Resistive) is a type of diathermy that uses radiant energy to generate endogenous heat. However, to the date there are no studies investigating the effects of TECAR therapy on exercise preconditioning and post-exercise recovery in humans. Therefore, the aim of this project is to assess the effects of different treatment protocols of TECAR therapy on. exercise preconditioning and post-exercise recovery in humans
