| The Magnafield Model MF998 uses low level INDUCED Magnetic Energy
Fields of Specifically Pulsed Frequencies suggested to be Therapeutically
Beneficial for the TEMPORARY RELIEF of MANY BODILY DISCOMFORTS.
The Magnafield system maybe
useful for the following:
» Pain - from migraine headaches . to troubled feet
(temporary relief) » Arthritis, Rheumatism, Muscle Spasms (temporary relief
of pain) » Backache - Sciatica, Neck and Shoulder complaints, trauma relief
(temporary relief) » Circulatory System - may assist in the maintenance of
peripheral circulation » Respiratory disorders - Hay Fever, Sinusitis,
Bronchial spasm, (temporary relief of symptoms) » Inflammation - Burns,
Bruising, Lesions, Bed Sores, Ankle Joint Swelling » Tendonitis - R.S.I.,
bursitis, ligament and muscle strains, rehabilitation » Sports Injuries -
Acute, Cramps (relief of), also for pre-sport and 'pre-exercise
toning
IMPROVE COMFORT AND
WELL-BEING A VALUABLE ADJUNCT TO ANY

PAIN? INJURY?
DISCOMFORT?
Almost every person experiences pain as a necessary part of life. Without
pain we would not be alerted to injury, burning, infection ' hunger etc.
However, many people suffer pain beyond the useful or protective warning
function, and the relief of such discomfort remains the most common demand on
medical assistance. Many methods are used. Among the complementary modalities
available, the induction of magnetic energy fields into the body has been
used by the medical profession in Europe and elsewhere for over 60 years.
Several makes and models of magnetic field therapy devices have come onto the
market - however, using recently developed technology, one of the most advanced
and effective units available has been designed and produced in Australia. It
is the MAGNAFIELD Magnetic Energy Induction Therapy Unit, Model MF
998.
MAGNETIC ENERGY
THERAPY
*The inducing of certain specifically pulsed magnetic energy fields into body
tissue causes bioelectric current activity which may assist in the normalising
of electron flow within and between cells in the body. This may help in the
temporary relief of pain and also in the repair damaged tissues.
*Using extremely-ultra-low frequencies of 0.5 to 18Hz with specially shaped
multi-rhythm bio-waveforms of oscillating magnetic energy fields, the Magnafield
can influence the ion exchange at the cellular level and also have an effect on
oxygen transport, blood activity and flow. This is important for the promotion
of healing of casual factors, such as injuries or disease, in conjunction with
appropriate nutrients and under the guidance of a suitably qualified health-care
practitioner.
*The magnetic energy field frequencies produced by the Magnafield system are
within the range of predominant brain frequencies of humans and animals. These
are very different to the potentially damaging very high frequencies and
waveforms of electro-magnetic radiation fields in the environment.
*The Magnafield treatment pad does not have to touch the body to be
effective. Distances of from 'in contact' to preferably 30cm (12") up to 1.2m
(4ft) approx. or more are just as effective.
*The most important setting is 0.5Hz. This has the best benefit in
nearly all cases, and is the most recommended frequency for initial treatments.
For certain conditions it is the only setting to obtain the required benefits.
Each frequency has specific effects.
Low-frequency rTMS may temporarily improve intractable epilepsy. Long-term depression as a phenomenon of synaptic plasticity, which can be induced by long-term low-frequency repetitive electric stimulation, may be part of the underlying physiology.3 The reduction of seizures was of similar range as seen under intermittent repetitive vagus nerve stimulation.5 Low-frequency rTMS as a non-invasive method may be an alternative adjunctive antiepileptic treatment. Our data need to be confirmed by placebo-controlled studies, which we are currently doing. Further investigations will be done to understand the mode of action of rTMS and to find optimum parameters of effective rTMS treatment in patients with epilepsy.
*Contra Conditions: While there are no known adverse side effects with
this treatment, commonsense suggests caution or avoidance of most other
forms of electrotherapy where higher frequencies and/or voltages and
currents are used in the following cases: pregnancy, viral infections,
tuberculosis, mycoses, cancer, pacemakers, cochlea ear implants or other
electronic implants etc. *Consult an experienced electrotherapist who
is familiar with this model Magnafield or contact the manufacturers'

reactions have been recorded with the Magnafield treatment when used as
recommended.
