Quantum Medicine: A Role of Extremely Low-Frequency Magnetic Fields in the Management of Chronic Pain
2022
Extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-MF) therapy is a promising treatment for chronic pain, given its ability to interact with body homeostasis using water-mediated transmission mechanisms typical of quantum medicine. The present study aims to assess the effects of ELF-MF therapy on chronic pain in 49 patients suffering from various musculoskeletal disorders. The therapy was applied through a Quec Phisis setup generating the electromagnetic field as the ion cyclotronic resonance. Patients underwent eight therapy sessions of 45 min each performed every other day. The bioimpedance assessment was based on the comparison of the height-adjusted body resistance (R/h) and reactance (…
The Effect of Medium-Intensity Electromagnetic Stimulation on Pelvic Floor Muscle Activity in a Young Woman—A Case Report
2021
Aims In recent years, devices for deep electromagnetic stimulation have been implemented in clinical practice. These devices generate pulses with a frequency of 1 to 50 Hz and magnetic induction of up to 2.5 T. Due to the possibility of producing or an effective deep-penetrating mechanical vibration, electromagnetic stimulation is increasingly used in the physiotherapy of urogynecological disorders. This study aimed to analyse of the effect of deep electromagnetic stimulation on the bioelectrical activity of pelvic floor muscles in a young woman. Case report The case of a 24-year-old woman with no diagnosed stress urinary incontinence is presented. The subject underwent electromagnetic stim…
Assessment of the Short-Term Effects after High-Inductive Electromagnetic Stimulation of Pelvic Floor Muscles: A Randomized, Sham-Controlled Study
2020
Background: Physiotherapy should be performed by patients with stress or mixed urinary incontinence (SUI and MUI) to increase the strength and endurance of the pelvic floor muscles (PFMs). A method that can positively affect the pelvic floor is stimulation with high-inductive electromagnetic stimulation (HIES). The aim of the study was to evaluate the PFMs after the application of HIES in women with SUI and MUI by using surface electromyography (sEMG). Methods: This was a prospective, randomized, single-blind study with a sham intervention group. The participants were randomly assigned to the HIES group or sham group. The outcomes were features of the bioelectrical PFM activity assessed usi…
