Scientific Studies and Articles

Result of a study conducted at the “Institute for Microcirculation in Berlin, Germany”:

”Magnetic Therapy improves the microcirculation in tissue” (“Magnetfeldtherapie bessert Microzirkulation im Gewebe”, Aerzte Zeitung, 24.08.2004)

The tissue of the group that received electromagnetic stimulation showed an increase in blood circulation and an improved oxygen supply at all times when
scientific measurements were taken.

Consider the following pictures of blood vessels that were influenced by pulsed magnetic fields and notice the increase in blood flow in the right picture.

“QRS® OSTEO Study 2001” (Quantron Medicine)
The QRS, Quantron Resonance System, is backed by 30 years of scientific knowledge, numerous clinical trials and empirical tests. There is a broad range of applications for treatment with the pulsating electromagnetic fields of the QRS.

In summary the findings state the following:
“The results are astonishing for the medical profession….For the User and the QRS specialist; it is not so quite so astonishing that this (unspecified) therapy delivers such clear results in a narrowly defined diagnosis. This makes QRS® a real alternative in therapy…” (p.29).

“Effect of Pulse Burst Electromagnetic Field Stimulation on Osteoblast Cell Activities”

“The purpose of this research was to assess the possible mechanism of the stimulatory effect of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) on bone cells…Our results demonstrated that PEMF stimulation significantly increased the osteblast’s proliferation…”

Terminology:
An osteoblast (from the Greek words for " bone " and "to build") is a cell which produces osteoid. Osteoid is a protein mixture which is secreted by osteoblasts. When it mineralizes, it becomes bone. Osteoid is primarily composed of type 1 collagen.

Findings of Clinical Trials

“Trials of electromagnets yielded more consistent results. Five out of six trials found that these magnets significantly reduce pain. The sixth found a significant benefit to physical function from using electromagnets…” (6).

26 of 32 randomized clinical trials (RCTs) showed that pulsed electrotherapy was efficient in treating conditions such as neck/shoulder pain, bone and joint diseases, neurological disorders, sleep disorders….(Vallbona and Richards, 1999, NCCAM 17).

“The participants who received the magnetic therapy had significant improvement in all pain measurements and in some range-of-motion measurements that persisted throughout the evaluation period (NCCAM 20).

“PEMF have been used for the treatment of a vascular necrosis of the hips, Legg- Perthes’ disease, osteoporosis, tendonitis, chronic pain due to musculoskeletal disorders, and delayed bone fractures…In conclusion, this study has demonstrated a statistically significant benefit in terms of reduction of pain and disability in patients with knee OA resistant to conventional treatment in the absence of significant side- effects.”
