Working with an extensive list of international sporting federations and organizations, INDIBA was able to support athletes across a huge variety of disciplines, sports, and events in their pursuit of Olympic and Paralympic success.
INDIBA was used by athletes from over twelve nations, ranging from swimmers to cyclists to weightlifters, helping them recover quicker from their exertions.
Eight golds, ten silvers, and twelve bronze medals were achieved by the athletes and teams that used INDIBA’s technology overall. However, many more top-flight athletes who did not attain a medal in this year’s games also used INDIBA to improve their sporting performance.
We are proud to have worked with all of these athletes and their governing bodies, helping them to strive towards their goals.
How Did INDIBA Improve The Performance Of Athletes In The Olympics and Paralympics?
INDIBA technologies have a range of medical and aesthetic applications, yet in the Olympics and Paralympics, the primary use was to help athlete’s bodies recover.
INDIBA’s INDIBA systems regulate and stimulate tissue cells to help in the functioning of their essential metabolic processes.
The basis of this technology is an electric current that works at a specific frequency of 448kHz. It creates a flow of electrons that produces an ionic displacement in the interior of the body.
In simple terms, the INDIBA system achieves its results by regulating the cell’s work with the application of an electric current.
However, if you increase the power of the current, you will then achieve a thermal effect in addition to the electric current effect. This thermal effect increases the blood supply to the treated area.
With a greater blood supply, more oxygen and nutrients, and other essential elements for recovery are delivered to the affected area.
The electric current effect stimulates cellular activity, while the thermal effect increases blood flow and accelerates metabolic reactions to restore tissue. It is the dual effect that is the key to INDIBA’s usefulness in treating athletes. Helping them to recover quicker from physical effort.
This technology is supported by 35 years of advanced academic research in molecular biology, preclinic, and clinic. As well as 500 papers in international scientific journals and six Ph.D. theses on the subject.
INDIBA Stand Out Athletes
There were many incredible performers in this year’s games that used INDIBA. Some of the most exceptional are described here.
Two gold-achieving performers who used INDIBA technologies included Nikola Mektic and Mate Pavic (Croatian Olympic Committee). They achieved success in the men’s tennis doubles in a scintillating match against their compatriots Marin Cilic and Ivan Dodig (Croatian Olympic Committee).
Another remarkable performance, this time from a group, was the men’s Serbian water polo team (Serbian Olympic Committee), who won their gold medal against fierce rivals Greece in a close two-point match.
In the world of martial arts, Serbian athlete Milica Mandić (Serbian Olympic Committee) took gold in the women’s +67kg Taekwondo final. She is now a double Olympic champion after her previous gold won nine years ago.
Fellow Serbian, Jovana Preković (Serbian Olympic Committee) won the gold medal in the women’s Kumite (Karate) competition in the 61kg weight category.
More martial arts success was found in the performance of Matea Jelić (Croatian Olympic Committee), who won the gold in the women’s Taekwondo competition in the 67kg weight category.
Out on the water, Croatia’s Martin and Valent Sinkovic (Croatian Olympic Committee) won the rowing men’s pairs title. The brothers put in an amazing performance to claim the gold medal in a time of 6:15.29, with the Romania boat finishing second in 6:16.58.
A huge congratulations should also go to French athlete Kevin Mayer (French Athletic Federation). He put in a consummate performance to win the silver medal in one of the most challenging disciplines in the competition – the decathlon.
Gymnastic Excellence
Working with the Russian Olympic Committee, INDIBA enjoyed the many successes of the Russian gymnasts in this year’s games. These included hard-fought gold medals for both the men’s and women’s Russian artistic gymnastic teams.
These successes also involved silver medals for the men’s Russian gymnastics vault team, the women’s gymnastics uneven bars team, and Russia’s women’s rhythmic gymnastics team.
Tin Srbić (Croatian Olympic Committee) also found success in the gymnastic discipline, winning the silver medal in the men’s artistic gymnastic horizontal bar event.
Pablo Carreño Busta
In the form of his life, the talented Spanish athlete Pablo Carreño Busta achieved an Olympic bronze in the men’s tennis singles, defeating former world number one Novak Djokovic. Carreño showed an incredible physical effort, frustrating Djokovic at every turn to win in a painfully tight match.
In a television interview, Carreño said, “I haven’t won the tournament, but it’s like the best title of my career.”
Timothée Adolphe
Blind French Paralympic Athlete Timothée Adolphe, who competed in the men’s 100m, achieved the silver medal in a stunning performance.
He was the only Paralympic athlete we worked with, and we were so proud to hear of his success.
The above represent just a handful of the notable performances by athletes and federations that worked with INDIBA. However, there were many, many more, each of which deserves an almighty celebration for their inspiring achievements.
