ICS 2026 abstract describes TECAR plus massage for pelvic-floor pain
ICS 2026 lists abstract 710 by Centrul Medical Integro researchers for presentation on October 9, 2026. Neither the first web publication date nor completion of the presentation has been separately verified.
Fifteen patients with dyspareunia related to muscle tension or childbirth trauma received 300–500 kHz capacitive/resistive RF (TECAR) alongside physiotherapist perineal massage. Among 12 participants with paired data, median penetration pain declined from 5 to 2.
This small, uncontrolled conference abstract cannot isolate RF efficacy or establish long-term safety. Enrollment and paired-analysis counts differ. It concerns rehabilitation research, not a new authorization, expanded indication or sales result. TECAR should remain distinct from invasive nerve ablation and aesthetic RF microneedling.
Summary
ICS abstract 710 reports TECAR plus massage in 15 participants; 12 paired observations showed median penetration pain falling from 5 to 2. October 9 is the scheduled presentation date. First web publication is unverified.
Editorial view
Editorial view: illustrates pelvic-floor research combining RF and manual therapy; it does not establish RF-only benefit or clinical superiority.
Evidence and limitations
Uncontrolled conference abstract; combined treatment; 12 paired observations from 15 enrollees. October 9 is a schedule date, not verified first web publication.
