Disorders of the active and passive musculoskeletal system are the most common cause of pain
(chronic or otherwise) around the globe. These disorders include back pain and osteoarthritis
as well as typical sports injuries such as inflammation of the tendons and joints. People who
suffer from these conditions often experience significant limitations in their everyday life as well
as reduced quality of life.
Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) is a non-invasive procedure developed
specifically for the treatment of these conditions. It differs from other forms of magnetic
field therapy in its higher oscillation frequency and magnetic field strength, also known as
effective transduction power. It is believed that these properties can enhance the healing
processes in the body.
How does the EMTT treatment actually work?
EMTT is a largely risk-free and side-effect-free method. As a patient, you will find the therapy
very comfortable: The therapy loop is positioned over the area of pain while you remain fully
clothed – direct skin contact is not necessary.

WHAT IS EXTRACORPOREAL MAGNETO-TRANSDUCTION THERAPY (EMTT)?
Extracorporeal magneto-transduction therapy (EMTT) is a noninvasive, noninvasive treatment
method that offers new options in rehabilitation and regeneration. Painful areas of the body are
treated with high-energy magnetic pulses. The therapy system builds up a voltage of between
15 and 30 kV within fractions of a second. The generated energy is transferred to the body areas
via the treatment loop. The pulse intensity penetrates cell membranes and manages to become
therapeutically effective in the cell. Depending on the setting, the impulses penetrate up to
18 cm deep into the tissue, so that deeper tissue layers are also reached. Since the individual
impulses are of short duration, there is no increase in temperature in the tissue.
WHAT ARE THE AREAS OF APPLICATION?
Extracorporeal magneto-transduction therapy is used in various fields, including degenerative joint
diseases, degenerative tendon diseases, as pain therapy, to accelerate healing in bone fractures
and sports injuries. Very good results are also achieved in overuse syndromes, bone edema,
stress fractures and inflammation of the pubic bone (so-called osteitis pubis). It is also an
ideal complement to extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT).
