Disability for the Italian Paralympic team doesn’t mean a lack, a handicap. Indeed on the occasion of the Paralympic European Athletics Championships that have just finished in Berlin, the many successes are for true super heroes. Sensationals.
And we at Human Tecar have had the opportunity to be at the side of the Fispes - Italian Paralympic and Experimental Sport Federation - and to the 20 called athletes to give them an effective and fast physical and muscular recovery, increasing their strength and tone, before competitions, and post them, thanks to recovery solutions for truly unique anti-fatigue treatments.
An extraordinary medal collection of which we are profoundly proud and that as the Federal President Sandrino Porru said: "It is a record for the number and color of metals, in Berlin we have made the history of Italian Paralympic Athletics. It was a superlative European review from all points of view, technical and for the team, thanks the participation of athletes of all disabilities, except ones for short stature."
