Magnetotherapy
For a long time, the treatment of the body with magnetic fields was extremely popular. Now magnetic therapy at home and in the hospital is again in fashion
Magnetotherapy is becoming increasingly popular – this is a technique of impact on man magnetic fields in order to prevent and treat a wide range of diseases, as well as maintaining the body in a tone.
Applicators and devices used in these procedures are capable of treating diseases of the whole organism – from damage to the musculoskeletal system to the distress of the gastrointestinal tract and infertility.
Electromagnetic fields and radiation in pure form in some cases are harmful and undesirable.
At the same time, with proper use, magnetotherapy as a special healing technology is useful and gives striking results! What is the essence of treatment and is there any special testimony and contraindications for magnetotherapy?
Operating principle
Despite the fact that only one component (magnetic) is present in the title, the electrical component (EMF) is also involved in the process. Separation conditionally, since both parts are closely interrelated.
Since it was about the magnet and his healing properties, humanity learned much earlier, the magnetotherapy was called because of this component. It should be recognized that the rationale for such treatment in scientific circles has taken many years. This is due to the fact that the fields have no taste, no odor, nor colors.
From here and some skepticism, which involuntarily arose in scientists of husbands regarding the influence of a magnet on a living organism. However, the result was invariably present, so at some point the properties of the technique became impossible. Today there is a medical magnetology in medicinal hospitals and magnetotherapy at home.
Basic Technology Characteristic – Induction. The magnetic field with a small induction causes the body workout reaction. Optimal for a person consider induction in the range of 0.02-0.05 TL (with a constant magnetic field and its duty).
With short-term sessions, these limits increase in a constant and alternating field. Another parameter is important for the latter – frequency. Two fundamentally different approaches are found in treatment – high-frequency inducterman and low-frequency magnetotherapy.
Industothermia is used mainly for treatment, is carried out by short courses, requires very complex equipment and has a number of significant contraindications.
The fact is that at high frequency, EPM is significantly absorbed by the tissues of a person and causes an increase in temperature. Unlike the previous technique, low-frequency magnetotherapy is safe (if there are no contraindications) and more physiological. It is used not only for treatment, but also for prevention.
Its feature is that there is no need for the procedure to external control of the specialist. Magnetotherapy at home is becoming increasingly popular.
It suits how it is impossible to better elderly people for whom the treatment at home to organize is usually lighter, as well as young cores and allergies. Magnetotherapy in gynecology is also in demand, especially in cases where there are contraindications to other physiotherapeutic methods.
Indications and Contraindications for the procedure
Testimony and contraindications for magnetotherapy should be studied before starting treatment. Unfortunately, there are many contraindications.
Below are the main:
oncology;
- inflammatory diseases in exacerbation;
- pronounced hypotension;
- Heavy leakage of coronary heart disease;
- bleeding and tendency to them;
- blood system diseases;
- purulent processes to surgical intervention;
- early after infarction;
- the presence of an implanted pacemaker;
- acute period of cerebral circulation dysfunction;
- diseases of the respiratory organs;
- goiter (thyrotoxicosis);
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- The state of alcohol intoxication.
As you can see, the list is quite impressive.
It is important to carefully read the instructions for this or that apparatus, with which the procedure is carried out, since each of them may have its own characteristics and additional contraindications. If therapy is on «green light», You can safely use therapeutic properties of EMF.
The healing effect of magnetic fields on the body can be:
General – affects tone, general condition, well-being;
- local – treats the affected organ or fabric section;
- reflex – use biologically active acupuncture points;
- indirect – by means of, for example, the receipt of specific healing magnetized water into the body.
Low-frequency magnetotherapy is very often used in order to remove pain.
It is believed that it does not act on material structures, but first of all on the human biofield. Stimulation due to the biological effect of resonance.
As a result, muscle relaxation occurs, the blood circulation and the circulation of lymphs in microsudes improve. Also accelerated the removal of interstitial fluid and toxins. At the same time, more oxygen flows into the body, and to cells of damaged tissues more nutrients. Thus, the pain goes, and the recovery process accelerates.
«Women’s» Magnetotherapy
Magnetotherapy in gynecology is valued due to the ability to cure inflammatory processes in ovaries, endocervicitis, colpit, endometritis, adhesive processes, algoromore. The procedure regulates the menstrual cycle and can even help in treating infertility!
The use of this type of therapy increases due to the deterioration of ecology. Casual, toxins increasingly affect the body, which daily enters unequal battles with poisonous substances entering it with food, water, with air. Often the body is additionally weakened by improper nutrition and long-term drug intake, which is especially often occurring in chronic ailments.
Magnetotherapy, thus, has not only an anesthetic effect, but also purifies the body, increases immunity, increases the number of lymphocytes and immunoglobulins.
This procedure contributes to a speedy recovery at a minimum of drugs, significantly reduces the side effect of their application.
