What is Indiba?

About Indiba technology

INDIBA® activ is a radiofrequency device that uses a scientifically proven frequency of 448 kHz to en
able medical professionals to treat their patients whilst integrating it with their manual therapy techniques and practical knowledge. INDIBA® activ uses both capacitive and resistive modes to treat acute and chronic injuries, which in turn:

Promotes stem cell proliferation
Reduces pain and inflammation
Facilitates mobilisation
Increases local circulation
Relieves muscle spasm
Regenerates tissue
Accelerates healing

CAPACITIVE MODE Suitable for superficial and vascularised tissue. The reactions caused by capacitive mode are mainly focused on the soft tissue adjacent to the electrode. Its design enables it to act as an external capacitor and to obtain a localised increase of electro-regenerative energy. The capacitive mode reduces the internal resistance of the tissues to the passing of current (as a result of the improved vascularisation).

RESISTIVE MODE Suitable for thick, dense, fatty and fibrotic tissues.
The reactions caused by the resistive mode act at a deeper level and focus on more resistive tissues, such as joints. ligaments and tendons. This mode in combination with manual techniques and kinetic therapy enables concentration of the effects of electro-regenerative energy on these structures.

NEUTRAL ELECTRODE
The return plate permits the return of the ions to the active electrode.

INDICATIONS

MUSCULOSKELETAL INJURIES
Muscle contractures, tears, muscle strains, sprains, synovitis, bursitis, etc.

PHYSIOAESTHETIC TREATMENTS
Recovery of thighs, buttocks, abdomen, cellulite post-cosmetic surgery rehabilitation, drainage, etc.

What is Indiba?

Indiba can help with: Rejuvenation – collagen stimulation, Contouring, Reduction of cellulite, Removal of toxins, Firming – collagen stimulation, Improving skin tone, Tightening – collagen stimulation, Uplifting, Anti-inflammatory, Improving circulation, Decongesting, Relaxation.

How does Indiba work?

Indiba raises the internal temperature of the tissues as part of a relaxing yet effective treatment. This stimulates collagen production and increases the circulation, tightening the skin and improving the delivery of nutrients and removal of waste products.

The Treatment

After cleansing your skin a cream is applied and a button shaped electrode is smoothed over the lymphatic drainage points on the neck and face. This, in essence, ‘clears out the pipes’ so that the toxic waste can be removed from the skin as the rejuvenation process begins. Then the electrode is smoothed over the whole neck, face and eye area. A second frequency is then used that treats the lower levels of the skin to give even more tightening. The final step of the Indiba treatment is when the electrode is placed on the therapist’s arm thus enabling the energy to flow through her finger tips into your skin. Using her finger tips, the therapist can work closely around the eye are in particular. This is the most relaxing part of the treatment. Afterwards antioxidants and other prescriptive products are applied to your skin along with sun cream.

Unless you have had a Thermage treatment we recommend for best results that you have an initial course of 6 treatments ideally within 3 weeks, and then maintenance every 4-6 weeks.

Down time for Indiba treatment

There is no visible down time although your hair may well be a bit ruffled! Many clients have their Indiba before their hair cut on a 4-6 six weekly basis.
