PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS
- The analgesia achieved by the release of the endorphin of enkephalin, which acts as an inhibitor of pain.
- The regulation of membrane permeability to ions Na and K. When the cell membrane is disrupted, the electromagnetic and electric fields polarize the cells and provide them the energy they need to re-establish the electrostatic balance, by restoring the sodium-potassium pump to its normal levels. In this way, the magnetic fields help in the reduction of inflammation and edema and as a result the cell functions normally again.
- The regulation of glucide, lipid and protein metabolism, which are the effect of the beneficial influence of the sympathetic and the parasympathetic system.
- The balance of hormone secretion.
- The strengthening of the immune system by increasing the number of leukocytesτων,platelets and gamma globulin.
- The increase of collagen, due to the reduction of the adenylic acid (AMP).
- The reduction of osteoclasts.
- The increase of calcification, osteoblasts and prostaglandin.
- The improvement of blood flow and oxygen absorption(oxygenation).
- Binding free radicals.
- Positive results in the restoration of traumatic situations of the muscles and chronic locomotor system disorders.
- Anti-inflammatory effect.
- The increase of metabolism and biological activity of he cells.
So far, no adverse effect by the application of Magnetic Fields has been reported and the results are only positive. Finally, the fact that magnetotherapy does not cause temperature raise of the exposed tissues must be underlined.
