One electromagnetic therapy showing strong potential for the non-invasive treatment of central and peripheral nervous system disorders is Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). A TMS coil generates an electromagnetic field that is delivered transcranially to the subject. It should be noted that the rTMS coil utilizes a magnetic field strength millions of times more powerful than the ones used by the Resonator™ device.
rTMS works by inducing electrical currents in tissue using a non-invasive stimulating coil at frequencies of up to 100Hz. The stimulating coil is placed near the intended site of stimulation and trigger pulses initiate brief magnetic pulses. rTMS is a way of stimulating the brain that may change the electrical activity of the nerve cells in the brain. It has been proposed as a treatment for brain disorders, including Parkinson's disease. The magnetic fields can pass through clothing, tissue and bone to reach otherwise inaccessible areas.
The Resonator™ device is an Investigational Device limited by Federal (or United States)
law to investigational use. The Resonator™ device is not for sale, nor is the
Magneceutical®
Therapy generally available outside of Investigational Review Board (IRB) approved clinical studies.
