What is Magnetotherapy?

Magnet therapy

is a gentle and natural treatment for the human body. The action of a pulsative magnetic field (PMF) favourably affects tissues of the body. It is known that PMF works at the cellular level. PMF causes activation of enzymatic processes, metabolic transfers and cellular membrane functions. Cellular respiration is enhanced in the exposed area. PMF produces positive changes in the immunological condition of the patient, vasodilatation of the arterial capillaries and decreases blood coagulation.

This treatment may lead to the suppression or complete elimination of some health problems. This safe, non-invasive therapy can be successfully applied for treatment of different diseases, both acute, and chronic, and often provides fast removal of pain and edemas, which arise from physical trauma.

PMF improves cerebral blood circulation, increases inflow of oxygen in the cerebral cells, increases flexibility of blood vessels, and dissolves cholesterol. It is often applied to treat insomnia, migraines, Asthma, atherosclerosis, poor memory, vertigo, after cerebral thrombosis and trauma of the head. Magnets have been shown to be helpful in the treatment of a number of conditions including arthritis, back pain, pain in joints, sporting injuries, poor circulation, lack of energy and stamina, depression etc.

The therapy consists of introducing areas of the body into a magnetic field to accelerate the recovery of pain, inflammation, de-calcification, or other ailments of the locomotive system.

"Modern" Magnetotherapy means the Low-frequency Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy, shortly also EMF or frequently PMF therapy. Magnet therapy is a safe physiatric method in treatment of many diseases. Unfortunately, many people know about the use of permanent magnets only, i.e. static magnetic field. There is a significiant difference in the way static and pulsed magnetic fields are used. Long-range experience and many clinical studies confirm, PMF gives better results. Pulsed magnetotherapy is a very popular physiatric method and has become the standard part of therapeutical procedures in spas, rehabilitation centers, etc.

How Magnetotherapy Acts:
There are three established physical mechanisms through which pulsed magnetic fields interact with living matter:
1) Magnetic induction
2) Magnetomechanical effects
3) Electronic interactions

Magnetic field exhibits the following activities:
1) vasodilatation
2) analgesic action
3) anti-inflammatory action
4) spasmolytical activity
5) healing acceleration
6) anti-oedematous activity

Magnet therapy helps alleviate symptoms of epilepsy, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, migraine, severe PMS, ADD / ADHD, and depression. Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy apparently reduce errant brain wave activity, revive (decalcify) the pineal gland thereby beneficially affecting melatonin synthesis, as well as benefiting other endocrine system functions such as enhancing the release or reception of dopamine.

Enhance blood's ability to carry oxygen.
Improve blood microcirculation.
Enhance neurological processes.
Improve psychological well-being.
Reducing anxiety.

Other medical indications:

Rehabilitation - osteoarthritis of the load bearing joints, spondylitides, osteochondritis, "tennis elbows", "frozen shoulders", conditions after distortions, algoneurodystrophic (Sudeck) syndrome, aseptic necroses (e.g. m.Perthes, m.Osgood-Schlatter), ankylosing spondylitis. Paediatrics - myopathiae, rheumatoid arthritis, spinal amyotrophy, palsies after delivery, sinusitis. Neurology - pareses of peripheral nerves, postherpetic pains Dermatology - skin ulcerations of arterial and/or venous origin Urology - chronic prostatitis, sexual dysfuntions and dysuric complaints

Counter-indications for magnetotherapy. Absolute - pregnancy, pacemaker, hyperthyreoidosis, suprarenal gland dysfunction, myasthenia gravis, conditions connected with bleeding (mainly bleeding into the GIT), hypothalamic and hypophyseal dysfunctions, active tuberculosis, acute viral diseases, malignancies (even in anamnesis), psychoses.
Relative - neurological diseases with seizures (with regard to applicator's localization), severe mycotic diseases, severe atherosclerosis. A sudden blood pressure decrease may occur, i.e. vertigo, swoon, etc. This reaction usually disappears within 30 minutes of the exposure and after 5 exposures adaptation sets in.
