A New York State-licensed physical therapist provides care at ITNYCPT. Each patient gets a clinical assessment and clear goals. Treatment follows a phased recovery plan. This sets ITNYCPT apart from spa-based or aesthetics-only INDIBA providers.

What INDIBA Radiofrequency Therapy Does and How It Works

INDIBA uses a specific frequency of 448 kHz to penetrate deep into soft tissue. This radio frequency current supports tissue regeneration, reduces inflammation, and improves circulation. The device uses capacitive and resistive modes to reach different tissue depths based on the treatment goal. Treatment is comfortable and requires no downtime.

Three Modes of Treatment

INDIBA therapy is applied in different modes depending on the patient’s condition and stage of healing.
  • Non-thermal mode is used to support tissue repair and may help reduce inflammation in early or acute stages of injury.
  • Moderate thermal mode gently increases tissue temperature, which may improve blood flow and help reduce pain.
  • High thermal mode produces deeper heating effects that may enhance circulation and is often used for chronic or long-standing conditions.
The physical therapist selects the appropriate mode based on the diagnosis, treatment goals, and the patient’s stage of recovery.

This practice is a breath of fresh air. From the front desk to the therapists, everyone is professional and welcoming. I’ve seen Keith for a sports injury and Beth for some chronic pain issues, and both are incredibly skilled. The one-on-one sessions are 30-50 minutes of undivided attention, which is so much better than other clinics I’ve tried. They accept a wide range of insurance plans, including for Pilates-based PT, which is a huge plus. I recommend them to everyone.

Keith Chan is a master of his craft. As someone who is very active, I needed a PT who understood that I wanted to get back to my workouts, not just be pain-free. Keith’s background as a personal trainer and his Graston certification made him the perfect fit. He created a plan that was both challenging and safe. Their Midtown clinic is clean, modern, and runs on time. I can’t recommend him enough for anyone looking to recover from an injury and get back to what they love.

My knee was in such bad shape when I first came to In Touch. I was practically immobile and somehow pushing myself through the day, but in Keith's hands I have gone through a remarkable transformation. His care and attention, coupled with an intense physical regiment has benefited me greatly. I am glad a good friend recommended him!

This place is great. Keith has reduced my pain so much, I don’t know what I did before him. It’s small and intimate and I’ve consistently received great care. Heather is also extremely helpful when it comes to booking and changing appointments. I would 100% recommend this practice.

Keith understands the body better than other physical therapists I’ve been to. I didn’t think my neck and shoulders would ever get back to normal because I hurt for so long. Keith changed that. Never had to take advil to ease the tightness again. Highly recommend the practice.

I’ve struggled with migraines and neck tension for years, and Beth at In Touch NYC PT has been a game-changer. She has a deep understanding of the body and doesn’t just treat the symptom; she gets to the root cause. Her Pilates-based approach was new to me, but it’s helped my posture and core strength so much. I’m finally seeing real, lasting results.

I cannot say enough good things about Beth and the team at In Touch NYC. After having my second baby, I was dealing with pelvic floor issues that I thought I just had to live with. Beth specializes in this area and made me feel comfortable from the very first appointment. She is patient, understanding, and incredibly skilled. Their Midtown location is calm and welcoming, which makes a huge difference when you’re dealing with sensitive health issues. I finally feel like myself again. If you’re a mom looking for a pelvic floor PT in NYC, this is the place!!

I’ve been to a few physical therapy clinics in NYC, but In Touch Physical Therapy is on another level. Keith Chan is incredibly knowledgeable and actually takes the time to listen. I went to their Midtown location for a lingering shoulder issue, and Keith built a plan that finally got me back to full strength. I always left feeling heard and confident in my recovery. Highly recommend if you want real one-on-one care.

INDIBA for Sports Recovery and Athletic Rehabilitation

Athletes use INDIBA to manage overuse injuries and recover between training sessions. It improves blood flow to tired or injured tissue and reduces inflammation in the acute phase.
The therapy plays a direct role in accelerating recovery after competition or heavy training. At ITNYCPT, INDIBA is paired with strength-based rehab and return-to-sport programming.

Does INDIBA Actually Work?

Yes. INDIBA is a clinically used therapy with a strong research record in musculoskeletal rehabilitation. It is not a wellness trend or a spa treatment. The sections below explain what the evidence shows and what patients can realistically expect from results over time.

What the Clinical Evidence Shows

INDIBA has been used in clinical rehab for over 40 years. More than 150 published studies support its use. Research shows clear results in pain reduction, tissue healing, and improved circulation. Individual results depend on diagnosis, severity, and consistency of treatment.

Are INDIBA Results Permanent?

INDIBA supports the body’s natural healing process. It does not mask symptoms. Results from rehab tend to last when paired with exercise and proper load management. Patients who notice pain after physical therapy can expect this to resolve quickly as the body adjusts. Outcomes vary based on the condition, activity level, and how closely the plan is followed.

What to Expect During an INDIBA Session

Session Length, Frequency, and Process

Sessions run 30 – 45 minutes. For a broader picture, see how long physical therapy takes based on diagnosis and treatment goals. The physical therapist applies the INDIBA handpiece to the target area and monitors tissue response throughout. INDIBA is usually part of a broader session that also includes exercise and manual therapy.

Who Is a Good Candidate for INDIBA?

INDIBA may be appropriate for adults who are managing musculoskeletal pain, recovering from injury, or rehabilitating after surgery. It is also commonly used to support athletes who are dealing with training-related stress, overuse injuries, or tissue recovery needs.
A clinical evaluation at ITNYCPT is required to determine whether INDIBA is appropriate based on the patient’s diagnosis, stage of healing, and treatment goals. INDIBA is used as part of a broader physical therapy plan and is not a standalone treatment for all conditions.

Contraindications and Safety Considerations

INDIBA is not suited for patients with pacemakers or other electronic implants. It is also not recommended during pregnancy or for active blood clots in the veins.
Patients on blood thinners or with reduced sensation should speak with a physician first. The physical therapist screens for all safety concerns at the first visit.

INDIBA Treatment Cost in NYC
