Magnetic field stimulation and the quality of life in MS patients Keywords: magnetic field stimulation, rehabilitation, multiple sclerosis, quality of life Summary: Background. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of magnetic field stimulation and exercise on the quality of life in multiple sclerosis patients
Majority of life processes occur in organisms owing to electromagnetic forces. The fields used in medicine reach the value of intensity from a few picoteslas to 2,5 tesla. Magnetotherapy, magnetostimulation and transcranial magnetic stimulation are physical procedures with the use of magnetic fields. In multiple sclerosis magnetic fields are used in the diagnostics, estimation of the disease progression and of the effects of immunomodulating treatment and in rehabilitation.
Magnetostimulation significantly decreases the level of fatigue in multiple sclerosis and positively influences some aspects of MS patients' quality’ of life (emotional state, content of life, thinking and fatigue). It may prove itself as an alternative method of symptomatic treatment of MS patients.
The influence of extremely low frequency magnetic fields on the treatment of somatic symptoms of depression Summary: Introduction. Depression is an Illness, the major symptoms of which, such as bad mood, decrease in drive, loss of interests, and the ability to feel happy may be accompanied by somatic symptoms such
Effect of pulsing magnetic fields therapy on multiple sclerosis fatigue and selected features of quality of life Abstract: Aim of this study: Fatigue is common in multiple sclerosis (MS). In the recent years there have been numerous rapports concerning utilization of magnetostimulation in treatment of this conventional met- hods-proof complication.
