Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT®) for regeneration and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal disorders

Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT®) with the MAGNETOLITH® opens up new possibilities in regeneration and rehabilitation. The areas of application include diseases of the musculoskeletal system such as lower back pain and tendinopathies of the rotator cuff or achilles tendon. EMTT® differs from general forms of magnetic field therapy or PEMF due to the high oscillation frequency of 100 – 300 kHz. This property enables a high penetration depth (18 cm) and a large range of indications.

At a glance

  • Non-invasive, ambulant therapy - no reported side effects
  • Wide range of therapeutic applications
  • High oscillating frequency with deep penetration

The MAGNETOLITH® in daily practice

Treatment with MAGNETOLITH® is comfortable and straightforward:

  • The patient does not have to undress
  • Effective fatigue-free work for the user
  • Applicator positioning by hand or with the flexible holding arm
  • A treatment session lasts between 5 – 20 minutes depending on the indication
  • Adjustable frequency up to 10 pulses/s

EMTT® Highlights

  • High-frequency magnetic field (100 – 300 kHz)
  • Continuous and reliable operation by water-cooled applicator
  • Click & Connect-Mechanism for a flexible applicator positioning
  • Simple plug in & plug out to change applicator
