Magnetotherapy is an effective method of improving joints. The positive effect of the magnetic field on the human body is known since ancient times. Tsarina Cleopatra used magnets to preserve beauty, youth, Chinese lekari with the help of magnetotherapy repaired the body's energy balance, during the hypocratic times the magnetic field was used to combat inflammation and bleeding.
Magnetotherapy for joints is one of the effective physiotherapy for therapeutic and prophylactic effects on bone, cartilage tissue. The magnetic field has a positive effect on the nerve roots, restores nervous-humoral regulation, reduces negative symptoms in diseases of the joints and spine. Doctors offer several effective devices for magnetic therapy at home.
What it is
For the treatment and prevention of medicine uses two types of magnetic field:
- constant;
- aC (low and high frequencies are used).
By the nature of the impact of magnetotherapy, two groups distinguish between the effects:
- local - active influence is experiencing a certain zone, for example, a knee or hip joint;
- general Magnetotherapy - the effect of using the magnetic field is manifested in various organs and systems, there is a general health intake.
Benefit and harm
What is the reason for the high efficiency of magnetic therapy? Why do magnets act positively on bone, muscle tissue, no less successfully treat nervous disorders, accelerate rehabilitation after injuries, restore the condition of the skin?
The secret of active influence on organs and fabrics with various properties is available in each magnet of two poles. Negative and positive poles act in their own way. For this reason, the magnetic effect is applied not only for the treatment of sore joints, but also in the composition of complex therapy of many pathologies
Magnetic therapy in physics and home conditions are effective in the following problems:
- diabetes;
- neurological diseases;
- defeat various spinal departments;
- problems with the digestive system;
- arterial hypertension;
- pathology of LOR-Body;
- cardiovascular diseases;
- dermatological diseases;
- injuries of different character;
- vasomotor rhinitis;
- varicose veins;
- unmarked hymorites;
- diseases of female sexual sphere, other pathologies.
Do not idealize the impact of the magnetic field. Sometimes magnetotherapy brings no benefits, but harm.
The reasons:
- violation of session duration;
- procedures more often than is supposed;
- the use of devices that emit a magnetic field, excluding restrictions;
- the duration of the course is more recommended.
Complications:
- the development of oxygen starvation of cells;
- glycolysis amplification;
- increasing the permeability of cell membranes (the risk of destructive processes is enhanced).
Act
Under the influence of all types of magnetic field in the body, certain changes occur:
- activation of exchange processes;
- improving nutrition, supply of oxygen tissues;
- removal of excess fluid from the body;
- reduction of lymphatic vessels, active elimination of toxins from the body;
- local federation is reduced;
- improves the state of the vascular wall, nerve fibers;
- drugs actively penetrate the amazed fabrics.
Changes give a noticeable therapeutic effect:
- inflammation in organs and tissues decreases;
- decreases pain syndrome in osteochondrosis, arthritis, arthritis;
- the peripheral blood circulation is normal;
- muscle tissue spasms disappear;
- intensive nutrition increases the elasticity of the cartilage, maintains a good condition of bone and muscle tissue;
- expansion of calcium ions increases, bones after fractures are faster;
- the sensitivity of nerve roots is restored;
- weaken negative symptoms with different pathologies.
Indications for the procedure
Magnetotherapy is often used with a complex effect on sore joints, spine. The largest therapeutic effect is noted when exposed to large articulations - knee and hip joints. Positive impact was recorded during osteochondrosis, rheumatic pains.
Indications for the use of magnetotherapy in pathologies of the musculoskeletal system:
Contraindications
In the hospital, physiotherapist physiotherapist conducts physiotherapist. The doctor takes into account restrictions, selects optimal time, duration, frequency of procedures.
At home, many patients conduct magnetic therapy with portable devices, but do not always pay attention to the list of contraindications specified in the instructions. Improper use of magnets in the treatment of articular pathologies, diseases of other divisions of the body brings harm.
Contraindications:
- active shape of the tuberculosis;
- tendency to bleeding;
- vorious pacemaker;
- state of alcohol, narcotic intoxication;
- pregnancy;
- acute period of infectious, chronic diseases;
- hypersensitivity to the action of magnets;
- menstruation;
- hypertensive disease (3 degree);
- severe liver and renal failure;
- patient age up to two years;
- low indicators of blood pressure over a long period;
- mental disorders;
- epileptic seizures;
- heat;
- malignant neoplasms;
- problems with the work of the thyroid gland;
- inflammation with the active generation of pus;
- blinding process.
Features of the Medical Session
Modern physiotherapeutic treatment is difficult to submit without the use of a magnetic field. Often, magnetotherapy is included in the list of physiotherapy for complex exposure. The patient receives electrophoresis, ultrasonic and vibrotherapy, electrical treatment.
The procedure is carried out in the office of physiotherapy. For the formation of the magnetic field, the stationary apparatus of OMT is used. Computer adjustment of the frequency and duration of exposure allows you to choose the optimal degree of impact. Modern devices have about 40 programs corresponding to the therapeutic protocol in various diseases.
Procedure:
- special preparation for the magnetotherapy session is not required. To purify cells, it is recommended to drink 200 ml of slight warm water;
- the procedure is carried out on a special couch equipped with a solenoid apparatus;
- the patient falls on the couch, the doctor fixes the magnetic belts on the problem areas for the most efficient impact;
- the physiotherapist selects the program individually, depending on the disease and the processing zone indicated in the direction from the attending physician;
- after turning on the device, a magnetic field occurs, the action of which is distributed to a depth of up to 4 cm;
- the solenoid of the movable type allows you to process all the plots;
- during the procedure there is no discomfort and painful sensations. In the zone of magnetic belts, a small vibration is heard;
- session duration - from 15 to 60 minutes;
- the course requires from 10 to 15 procedures;
- the optimal frequency of visits to the Cabinet of the Physiotherapist for Magnetotherapy is 2-3 times for a week.
Important! The effect of therapeutic sessions is noticeable after two to three sessions. The patient must visit all the procedures appointed by the doctor. If at other days the doctor prescribed medicinal electrophoresis or ultrasound therapy, be sure to go through all sessions, to get all kinds of procedures, ensure a comprehensive effect for the greatest effect.
Specialists have developed several methods that combine the effectiveness of the magnetotherapy and the beneficial properties of other types of impact. The physiotherapist offers a patient (in the direction of the attending physician) Effective combined procedures:
- photomagnetotherapy;
- magnetic belonging therapy;
- magnetophoresis.
Magnetotherapy at home
Conducting therapeutic and wellness sessions is possible not only in the conditions of a hospital or arycabea, but also at home. To achieve a noticeable effect, the patient must consult with the attending physician, Clarify whether there are no contraindications for conducting treatment sessions using a magnetic field.
It is important to remember that the benefits and harm of magnetotherapy largely depends on the person. Violation of the rules for using the device, non-compliance with the recommendations of the attendant physician often turns into additional health problems.
Magnetotherapy devices have a lot of advantages:
- compact dimensions;
- simplicity;
- high therapeutic effect;
- positively affect the sick joints and the spine;
- are suitable for impact on various parts of the body;
- reduce soreness, fuel and tissue, activate the power, blood circulation of the problem zone in pathologies of the musculoskeletal system;
- many devices have a fairly acceptable cost.
