Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT): A state-of-the-art treatment option for musculoskeletal complaints

Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT): A State-of-the-Art Treatment Option. Musculoskeletal disorders are the most common cause of pain worldwide. Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) offers doctors and patients a state-of-the-art, non-invasive treatment option based on the latest scientific findings. This well-tolerated outpatient therapy is specifically developed for the treatment of chronic musculoskeletal disorders affecting muscles, bones, joints, tendons, and ligaments. The Principle: High-Energy Magnetic Pulses. EMTT is based on the targeted application of high-frequency magnetic fields ranging from 100 to 300 kHz. During therapy, painful areas of the body are treated with high-energy magnetic pulses featuring a field strength of 10 mT (millitesla) and upwards. Deep Penetration: By delivering a high effective transduction output and oscillation frequency, EMTT enables a deep tissue penetration of up to 18 cm. This allows for the successful treatment of deep-seated anatomical structures., Non-Thermal Mechanism: Energy is transferred via a handpiece, and due to the extremely short duration of individual pulses, there is no temperature increase in the targeted tissue. Broad Clinical Indications. Supported by clinical studies, EMTT is utilized across a wide spectrum of musculoskeletal complaints, such as:. Degenerative changes: Joint complaints associated with signs of wear and tear., Pain-related complaints: General back pain or muscular tension., Over-strain & sports injuries: Tendinopathy and other strain-related conditions. A Patient-Centered, Outpatient Workflow. Treatment with a state-of-the-art EMTT system is highly comfortable for patients and easily integrated into everyday clinical practice. The handpiece is positioned directly over the relevant pain region (e.g., lower back, knee, shoulder), and crucially, does not require direct skin contact or the removal of clothing. Session Length: Delivering up to 10 pulses per second, a single session typically lasts between 5 and 20 minutes, depending on the indication., Treatment Course: Depending on the condition's severity and the patient's response, a full course of therapy generally consists of up to 8 sessions carried out over a period of several weeks.
