Magnetic therapy and its meaning

Total magnetotherapy is the process of exposure to the magnetic field to the human body. It has such properties: improving well-being, compensatory possibilities increase, the sustainability of immunity to different adverse effects increases.

Magnetotherapy is one of the directions of physiotherapy, the principle of which is the effects of an alternating magnetic field on the human body. Such an influence can be carried out both on the whole organism and on its separate parts. The action of the low-frequency field is that the body's tissues are not amenable to magnetic properties, magnetic properties are communicated to some composite elements.

The spectrum of action is quite extensive, since the magnetic field is applied not only for the purpose of treatment, but also for prevention and rehabilitation.

General magnetotherapy is aimed at improving the patient's immune status, in order to rebuild the body for active protection against adverse factors. The principle of operation of such a direction of physiotherapy is to change the orientation and concentration of biologically active substances, namely enzymes, nucleic acids, proteins.

Principle and mechanism of impact

The spectrum of the action of magnetic therapy occurs on a submolecular, molecular and sub-bottle levels of the body.

Due to the effects of the magnetic field, such processes are observed in the body:

  • extension of vessels
  • reduced blood viscosity,
  • the likelihood of blood clots is reduced,
  • the process of blood circulation is improved at the point of exposure,
  • the enrichment of tissues, bones and the body as a whole oxygen,
  • microcirculation improves,
  • normalized blood clotting,
  • regenerative and reparative processes, bones, ligaments and muscle fibers are stimulated
  • the hematomas are dissolved,
  • the inflammation is removed
  • the pain associated with arthritis is reduced, etc.

Thus, such a type of physiotherapy is able to perform anti-inflammatory, sedative, anti-edema and painful functions.

The principle of operation of magnetotherapy is that all the impact occurs on macromolecules, as a result of which charges appear and their susceptibility changes. As a result, an increase in their energy may be observed, the orientation and concentration of biologically active molecules changes. Such changes as a result leave their imprint on the kinetics of biochemical reactions and the speed of biophysical processes.

The mechanism of primary action lies in the orientation restructuring of liquid crystals and their deformation. As a result, such processes affect the impermeability of membrane structures.

When exposed to current on elementary currents in atoms and molecules for and intracellular water, a variation of a quasicrystalline structure occurs. As a result, the properties of water change, they are characterized by a strained surface, viscosity, electrical conductivity, permeability, etc.

The magnetic field also affects the vessels. It affects both biologically active macromolecules and for oastolecular and cellular structures. The result of such actions is the change in electrophysical activity and functional properties. Magnetotherapy can affect both nervous, stem and muscle fibers.

The feature of the use of impulsive and alternating current is that it provokes the movement of free charges, ions and electrons in tissues, in the bones, in order to increase their activity.

The essence of the actions of the magnetic field on the body is:

  • individual sensitivity and resistance to the impacts of the magnetic field,
  • the phase of the orientation is selected to change the body's reaction,
  • the degree of severity of therapeutic action is determined,
  • the body's response to the pulses of the magnetic field is controlled,
  • the nature of the current action is determined.

Indications for the use of magnetotherapy

Today, actively applies to the treatment of different diseases, general magnetic therapy. All its methods are successfully used.

In order for the use of magnetotherapy to have a positive effect, it should be carried out at:

  • - diseases associated with the cardiovascular system. Namely, with hypertensive disease, the І-ii degree, CHS with a stable angina voltage of the I-i-ІІ FC, rheumatism, vegetative-vascular dystonia, post-infarction cardiosclerosis,
  • - disorders of the central and peripheral system: in case of injuries of the spine, spinal cord, with circulatory impairment, osteochondrosis, neurutity, polyneuropathy, neuralgia, neurosis, paralysis, etc.,
  • - diseases of peripheral vessels,
  • - diseases associated with disrupting the operation of the musculoskeletal system,
  • - with broncho-pulmonary diseases,
  • - in case of violation and damage to the gastrointestinal tract,
  • - in the event of LOR-pathology - rhinitis, sinusitis, otitis, laryngitis,
  • - at ophthalmology - there is inflammation of the environment of the eyes: conjunctivitis, irrit; Atrophy of the optic nerve, glaucoma at the initial stage of development,
  • - dentistry - periodontal disease, fractures of jaws, postoperative wounds,
  • - diseases of the urine system: cystitis, metric, prostatitis, infertility, climacteric syndrome, benign education,
  • - with allergic and skin diseases,
  • - for fractures, when damaged bones,
  • - With trophic ulcers: burns, frostbite, breakdown, before and after operational application.

Thus, the total magnetotherapy is capable of providing positive effects.
Thanks to her, a person can improve well-being, it is eliminated either to a minimum painful feeling, the blood pressure (reduction ability) is normalized, and all blood performance is restored, the function of the peripheral nerves is restored, the urinary tract is painted, and so on. Magnetically therapy is effectively applied and For fractures. When breaching the integrity of bones, therapeutic properties of this type of physiotherapy often perform one of the main methods of therapy.

Common magnetotherapy is an additional component of drug treatment. It is capable of providing a positive impact that helps to avoid unwanted side results.

The procedure for passing magnetotherapy

The duration and features of the procedures of magnetotherapy depends on the type and severity of the disease.

On average, the treatment session is 10-30 minutes, and the course is from 6-12 procedures. According to research, the improvement in patients is observed a couple of weeks after passing a certain course. Thanks to the individual characteristics of this method of treatment, the general magnetotherapy is able to maintain the therapeutic effect even for 4-6 months.

The session is carried out according to the established procedure. When visiting magnetic therapy, patients are required and removed to remove all metal items and elements of clothing decor, such as belts, keys, decorations, mobile phones. This procedure can lead to a demagnetization of plastic cards, disks, flash drives. Thus, all rules and norms should be followed in order to avoid trouble.

The magnetotherapy session is carried out by a portable or stationary apparatus. If the treatment is carried out using the first type of equipment, then two work surfaces are placed on certain human body zones. They are composite component parts of this apparatus. Inside them are induction coils that carry out the entire workflow on the specified mode. After the set time, the working surfaces of the portable apparatus are removed. The session is over.

The stationary apparatus is a certain complex that consists of an inducer of a certain diameter. The procedure of magnetotherapy is carried out by placing the patient in the inside of the equipment in the position of lying, except for the head. Thus, the device is turned on and a session occurs the desired amount of time.

Thus, the procedure of magnetotherapy does not cause any sensations, as a person is not able to feel a magnetic field.

A visit to the magnetotherapy sessions is made only after consulting and appointing the attending physician, since only the doctor is able to adequately assess the patient's condition, taking into account the existing recommendations and contraindications of this type of physiotherapy.
