La magnetoterapia è straordinariamente efficace nel riattivare il metabolismo dei tessuti e nello stimolare le strutture scheletriche ed articolari, compromesse da traumi, stress e invecchiamento.
La TENS (Transcutaneous Nerve Stimulation) è ideale per chi desidera alleviare o risolvere problematiche collegate al dolore senza ambizioni di rassodamento o aumento della forza muscolare.
How do TENS devices work?
In detail, a special electric generator is used to deliver painless pulses, which are perceived by the patient as a tingling sensation.
Un tipico stimolatore TENS è in grado di modulare l’ampiezza dell’impulso, la sua frequenza e l’intensità.
Generalmente, la corrente elettrica viene applicata ad alta frequenza (> 50 Hz), con un’intensità sensoriale, o a bassa frequenza mediante due o più elettrodi applicati alla pelle con cerotti adesivi riutilizzabili.
The impulses block or reduce pain signals reaching the spinal cord and brain, and can potentially relieve muscle spasms and other painful symptoms.
What are the benefits of TENS therapy?
Gli effetti generati dalla TENS possono essere così riassunti:
- Inhibition of nociceptive transmission
- Endorphin release
- Modificazione dell’eccitabilità periferica con un conseguente innalzamento della soglia del dolore
In quali casi la TENS è controindicata?
Se il proprio medico o fisioterapista ha confermato la possibilità di utilizzare questa opzione terapeutica, il paziente deve sapere che la TENS è ben tollerata e sicura.
However, some patients cannot use this therapy.
When not to use TENS:
- Se non si conosce la causa del dolore o se la diagnosi non è ancora stata definita
- In the case of pacemakers or other implanted electrical devices
- In the presence of epilepsy or heart rhythm disorders
- If you suffer from severe skin conditions
- In the presence of malignant tumours
- During pregnancy (use with caution)
What are the side effects of TENS?
Gli effetti collaterali più comuni prevedono reazioni cutanee come irritazioni e arrossamenti (in circa un terzo dei pazienti).
In rari casi sono riportati effetti collaterali come perdita di sensibilità, dolore, sensazioni sgradevoli, cefalea, dolori muscolari, nausea, agitazione e capogiri.
Tuttavia, non è chiaro se tali effetti siano direttamente causati dalla TENS.
Does magnetotherapy have contraindications?
La magnetoterapia è una delle terapie fisiche con il minor numero di controindicazioni.
However, some situations require attention:
- Pacemakers: l’uso è assolutamente vietato poiché il campo magnetico può danneggiarne il funzionamento.
- Cancer pathologies: controindicata perché può accelerare i processi trofici.
- Pregnancy: anche se non ci sono studi certi, è consigliabile evitare per precauzione.
È sempre necessario attenersi al manuale d’istruzioni del dispositivo utilizzato, per rispettare le specifiche controindicazioni.
How does magnetotherapy work?
La magnetoterapia ad alta e bassa frequenza sfrutta la presenza di ioni liberi e molecole elettricamente equilibrate (come l’acqua) nel corpo umano, che reagiscono al campo magnetico oscillante.
Questo campo magnetico regolabile stimola il movimento di queste molecole, accelerando i processi chimici dell’organismo.
Favorisce l’attività della pompa sodio-potassio e regolarizza gli scambi chimici nei tessuti compromessi da patologie croniche o infiammatorie.
Magnetotherapy also acts on:
– Tessuto osseo
– Tessuto linfatico
– Muscolatura
It helps accelerate trophism and the rehabilitation process.
What are the most important effects of magnetotherapy?
- Relaxing effect: on smooth and striated muscles, reduces contractures and joint pressure. Useful in cases of effusions or herniated discs.
- Analgesic effect: rilassa i tessuti, migliora la circolazione, innalza la soglia del dolore e riduce l’infiammazione.
- Osteogenesis: stimola il trofismo osseo, favorisce la fissazione del calcio nelle ossa ed è utile in fisioterapia per diverse patologie ossee.
