Instrumental physical therapy

When rehabilitation requires additional support, technology steps in with precision. The Rehabilitation Area of Bibione Thermae is equipped with state-of-the-art electromedical equipment, continuously updated, which supports the work of physiotherapists in treating muscular, joint, and neurological conditions. Each therapy is determined based on the patient's condition and recovery goals, with the option to integrate it with manual treatments, therapeutic exercise, and rehabilitation in thermal water.

Techart therapy

Tecarterapia harnesses radiofrequency energy to support the body’s natural healing processes, helping to reduce pain and inflammation and speed up tissue recovery in both acute and chronic conditions. Using capacitive and resistive modes, the treatment works at different depths and can be combined with manual techniques and therapeutic exercise as part of a rehabilitation program tailored to each patient’s needs.

The treatment is recommended for:

  • Muscle injuries, sprains, muscle cramps and sports-related injuries
  • Tendinitis, tenosynovitis and impingement syndromes
  • Post-arthroendoprosthetic surgery
  • Lymphedema, venous stasis and post-traumatic or post-surgical edema
  • Scars and keloids
  • Sudeck’s atrophy and muscle fatigue, including after sports activities

High-power analgesic laser therapy

Bibione Thermae MLS® laser therapy combines analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-edema, and biostimulatory effects, helping to restore motor function. This next-generation technology offers short treatment times and immediately noticeable results, even during the acute phase, helping to restore mobility and well-being in daily activities.

The treatment is indicated for:

  • Osteoarthritis and rheumatic conditions
  • Herniated discs, sciatica and cruralgia
  • Carpal and tarsal tunnel syndrome
  • Tendinitis, bursitis, capsulitis, epicondylitis and epitrochleitis
  • Sprains, strains, bruises and sports injuries
  • Post-fracture algodystrophy
  • Scars and burn sequelae

Ultrasound Therapy and Shockwave Therapy

Acoustic waves with different characteristics, to address different tissues and conditions. Ultrasound therapy uses high-frequency vibrations, applied directly to the skin or immersed in water, for a deep micromassage with an analgesic and decontracting effect.

Shock waves, focal or radial, instead exert a mechanical action that stimulates repair processes, particularly useful in tendon and muscle pathologies, but also in bone recovery after a fracture. The latter treatment requires a medical prescription and the evaluation of diagnostic tests.

The treatments are indicated in case of:

  • Osteoarthritis, plantar fasciitis, tendinitis and tenosynovitis
  • Epicondylitis and epitrocleitis
  • Muscle injuries without discontinuity
  • Dupuytren's disease
  • Tendinopathies and myofascial syndrome (shock waves)
  • Delayed healing of fractures and wounds (shock waves)
  • Bone edema and sympathoriflex bone dystrophies (shock waves)

Cryoshock Cryotherapy

Intense cold and controlled heat alternate to stimulate microcirculation and promote tissue recovery. At Bibione Thermae, cryotherapy uses Cryoshock technology, which combines temperatures of up to -18°C and +41°C to produce a localized thermal shock. A targeted treatment, particularly useful for alleviating pain, inflammation, and swelling after trauma or orthopedic surgery. It can be integrated with other rehabilitative therapies to support functional recovery and return to physical activity.

The treatment is indicated for:

  • Sprains, dislocations, and tendinopathies
  • Muscle and tendon injuries
  • Post-traumatic edema and swelling
  • Recovery after orthopedic surgery

Magnetotherapy

Magnetotherapy is used primarily in the rehabilitation of bone and joint disorders, through programs that use different frequencies and intensities to stimulate repair processes. At Bibione Thermae, it is incorporated into physiotherapy programs dedicated to recovery after trauma and the treatment of chronic musculoskeletal disorders, in combination, when indicated, with other rehabilitative techniques.

The treatment is indicated for:

  • Delayed fracture healing
  • Arthrosis and pseudoarthrosis
  • Osteoporosis and osteochondrosis
  • Ulcers, wounds, keloids, and tissue necrosis

Pain relief and stimulation electrotherapy

Relieving pain or restoring muscle tone: electrotherapy makes it possible to pursue different goals through calibrated electrical impulses. T.E.N.S., interference, and diadyamic pain-relief currents act on painful areas, while electrostimulation induces controlled muscle contractions, particularly useful after surgery or long periods of immobility. Galvanotherapy and iontophoresis, on the other hand, use direct current to facilitate the local administration of medication through the skin.

The treatment is indicated for:

  • Neck pain, lower back pain, and sciatica
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Traumatic injuries, such as whiplash
  • Muscle hypotonia and atrophy
  • Muscle recovery after surgery or prolonged immobility

Cervical and lumbar traction

When pain affects the spine, the physical therapist may use cervical and lumbar traction, a technique that applies a controlled stretching force to the spine. The intensity and method are determined based on individual conditions, with the aim of alleviating painful symptoms. 

The treatment is indicated for:

  • Painful disorders of the cervical spine
  • Painful disorders of the lumbar spine

Pressotherapy

Swollen legs, fluid retention, and impaired venous and lymphatic return: pressotherapy uses progressive pneumatic compression applied through cuffs fitted to the limbs. The pressure and sequence are programmed according to the treatment requirements. At Bibione Thermae, it can be combined with manual lymphatic drainage as part of dedicated vascular and lymphatic rehabilitation programs.

The treatment is indicated for:

  • Venous insufficiency, phlebo-lymphatic disorders, and primary or secondary lymphedema
  • Varicose veins and extra-saphenous varicosities
  • Post-traumatic, premenstrual, and pregnancy-related edema
  • Outcomes of plastic and reconstructive surgery
