Therapeutic Percutaneous Electrolysis (EPTE®)
EPTE®: the innovative instrumental therapy for tendinitis and tendinopathies
EPTE® or therapeutic percutaneous electrolysis is an innovative instrumental therapy developed in Spain, dedicated to the treatment of tendinitis and tendinopathies, both in acute and chronic forms.
EPTE® is the first percutaneous electrolysis device guaranteed with CE marking for medical devices.
The therapy consists of transmitting micro-currents through acupuncture needles, precisely guided to the affected area using an ultrasound device, which causes a physical reaction in the tendon. The treatment lasts about 2 minutes and is almost imperceptible to the patient.
Improvements can be noticed as early as 24/48 hours after the therapy.
The advantages of EPTE Percutaneous Therapeutic Electrolysis
- Reduces recovery time by stimulating tissue regeneration processes
- Allows for targeted treatment through the use of ultrasound guidance
- Induces a significant analgesic effect
