New Technology Percutaneous Electrolysis Therapy
What is EPTE?
THERAPEUTIC PERCUTANEOUS ELECTROLYSIS
Percutaneous Electrolysis Therapy (EPTE) is an innovative physiotherapy technique that uses a controlled electrical current to treat tendon and muscle injuries in a targeted and precise manner.
This technique causes a controlled inflammatory response in the affected tendon or tissue, accelerating and guiding the natural regeneration process. It is a very effective tool for chronic injuries that have not responded well to other alternative treatments.
The procedure is performed under ultrasound guidance, ensuring maximum precision and safety by accurately locating the damaged area.
WHICH PATIENTS ARE SUITABLE FOR THERAPEUTIC PERCUTANEOUS ELECTROLYSIS?
EPTE is particularly recommended for patients with chronic or persistent tendinopathies.
It is indicated for adult patients, athletes or non-athletes, who are looking for an effective solution based on scientific evidence for tendon injuries.
Recommended for the treatment of:
Patellar tendinitis/tendinopathy (jumper's knee)
Achilles tendinopathy (Achilles tendon)
Epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
Rotator cuff tendinopathy (shoulder)
Plantar fasciitis
Gluteal or hip tendinopathy
Benefits compared to other treatments
Why choose Percutaneous Electrolysis Therapy over other treatments?
Precision: applied under ultrasound guidance, reaching the exact point of injury
Minimally invasive: a fine needle and low-intensity current are used, with very controlled discomfort.
Stimulates natural regeneration: unlike passive treatments (heat, ultrasound), EPTE triggers an active biological response that promotes tendon healing.
Pain reduction: significant improvements in pain and function are usually achieved in just a few sessions.
Alternative for chronic cases: it is especially useful when other conservative therapies have failed, in some cases avoiding the need for surgery.
Faster and more effective recovery: combined with active physiotherapy and specific exercises, it allows you to return to sports activities or daily life sooner without pain.
