Pedro Miguel Prata, a specialist doctor in General Medicine, Family Medicine and Sports Medicine, told us his opinion and experience with the\u00a0EPTE\u00ae Technique of Percutaneous Electrolysis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dr. Prata attended to the Official EPTE\u00ae Percutaneous Electrolysis Course performed in Oporto in November 2016. His expectations regarding the\u00a0percutaneous electrolysis\u00a0technique<\/strong> were high. Currently, Dr. Prata is very satisfied with his results with this invasive technique and he decided to talk about them.<\/p>\n

According to Dr. Prata, it is important to share results, especially in an area so important as Health, so that other professionals may have the opportunity to know the benefits of percutaneous electrolysis<\/a> or other techniques that they can use to treat their patients.<\/p>\n

1. How did you discover the Percutaneous Electrolysis EPTE\u00ae technique?<\/h3>\n

“Before discussing how I discovered the percutaneous electrolysis technique, I would like to comment that, as a General and Family Medicine practitioner, between 15% and 20% of my annual medical examinations are due to musculoskeletal disorders. I am passionate about the musculoskeletal area and I always look for alternatives to the traditional therapies prescribed to fight pain, so I decided to search more information online and I found the EPTE\u00ae technique” explains Dr. Prata.<\/p>\n

In addition to his important role in the medical team of Fi\u00e3es SC<\/a>, Dr. Pedro Prata also works at the Integrated Medical Center Belorizonte<\/a>\u00a0where he applies the EPTE\u00ae technique making this center one of the EPTE\u00ae Official Centres<\/a> in Portugal.<\/p>\n

2. In your opinion, as a professional in the health area, what do you consider to be the main benefits of percutaneous electrolysis?<\/h3>\n

“As I said before, this technique is an additional tool for the health professional to fight musculoskeletal conditions.
\nIt is a safe and effective technique, reducing the recovery time of the patient and, according to my experience in Sports Medicine, it is extremely important to shorten the recovery time of an athlete, allowing a faster and more effective return to competition.”<\/p>\n

The EPTE\u00ae technique for Percutaneous Electrolysis<\/strong>\u00a0is almost painless with very positive results in the recovery of tendinopathies considered as chronic. After analyzing the tendon status, the treatment should be adapted to different sessions of percutaneous electrolysis spaced over time and therapeutic exercise to be performed for an excellent tendon recovery.<\/p>\n

3. According to your experience with the\u00a0EPTE\u00ae\u00a0technique<\/strong>, are your achieved results positive?<\/h3>\n

“The results obtained are fantastic, whether in the component of General and Family Medicine in patients with a more advanced age, workers that make repetitive movements, tendinopathies of the supraspinatus, tendinopathy of the common tendon of the epicondyle muscles, as in tendinopathies of the Achilles tendon and fasciopathy in athletes”, reveals Dr. Pedro Prata<\/p>\n

4. What is your perception about your patients’ reactions to the treatment?<\/h3>\n

“In addition to the excellent reaction of my patients, I can see the real-time effect of the EPTE\u00ae technique.” This makes me clearly satisfied, confident with my work and with wanting to learn even more about this technique,” says Prata.<\/p>\n

Ionclinics<\/a> has an excellent Teaching and Research team. This gave the EPTE\u00ae technique a complete and balanced evolution, making the range of possibilities of this treatment expand more and more. In the EPTE\u00ae Basic Course<\/a> it is possible to learn approaches for treatment with percutaneous electrolysis in the following tendons:<\/p>\n
