A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial using a low-frequency magnetic field in the treatment of musculoskeletal chronic pain
Abstract Exposure to a specific pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) has been shown to produce analgesic (antinociceptive) effects in many organisms. In a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial, patients with…
Headache treatment with pulsing electromagnetic fields: a literature review.
Abstract Pulsing electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy may be a viable form of complementary and alternative medicine. Clinical applications include the treatment of fractures, wounds, and heart disease.…
Experiments showing that electromagnetic fields can be used to treat inflammatory diseases
Abstract While it is well known that electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can induce repair of non-healing bone fractures, EMF therapy remains confined to orthopedic clinics mainly…
Noninvasive treatment of inflammation using electromagnetic fields: current and emerging therapeutic potential
Abstract Magnets, electric current and time varying magnetic fields always have played a role in human medicine. Natural magnetic stones were used in ancient cultures to induce a therapeutic…
Are SPA therapy and pulsed electromagnetic field therapy effective for chronic neck pain? Randomised clinical trial First part: clinical evaluation
Abstract OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to compare SPA therapy (ST) with pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy in chronic neck pain. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Inclusion criteria were…
Transcranial pulsed magnetic field stimulation facilitates reorganization of abnormal neural circuits and corrects behavioral deficits without disrupting normal connectivity
Abstract Although the organization of neuronal circuitry is shaped by activity patterns, the capacity to modify and/or optimize the structure and function of whole projection…
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Improves Tinnitus
Abstract Background and purpose: Tinnitus is a frequent disorder which is very difficult to treat and there is compelling evidence that tinnitus is associated with…
Extreme voltage could be a surprisingly delicate tool in the fight against cancer
40 Thousand volts, four thousand amperes, and over one hundred million watts squeezed into a cubic centimeter. You’d think that would be enough to vaporize just…
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease and Stroke Speech Rehabilitation
Aphasia is recognised as a common and debilitating communication impairment, as a result of a stroke lesion. Language deficits in aphasia transpire as a result…
The effect of pulsed electromagnetic fields on secondary skin wound healing: an experimental study
Abstract A variety of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) have already been experimentally used, in an effort to promote wound healing. The aim of the present…
