Whole body cryotherapy and magnetotherapy influence
on some cardiac parameters

Keywords:

cardiac parameters, vectorcardiography, magnetotherapy,

Summary:

Electrical activities of the particular fragments of cardiac muscle due to magnetotherapy and whole body cryotherapy were estimated using high-resolution vectocardiography. Exposure on low frequency magnetic field as well as very low temperature didn’t cause essential changes in heart rate from medical point of view. Only a little increase of electric activities of cardiac muscle was observed, especially after whole body cryotherapy.
