Bio-Electromagnetic Energy Regulation Therapy THERAPY AND RHEUMATIC DISEASES (including rheumatoid arthritis)

About 4 to 10 million people in Germany suffer from a form of rheumatic disease. Of those, about 5% are severely affected and under a physician’s care. Over the past 14 years, the amount of people needing to take early retirement because of rheumatic disease has doubled. Therefore, because of its frequency, rheumatism and its effects does not only impact our quality of life, but it also is responsible for up to 60 million sick days per year.

The world health organization (WHO) defines rheumatism in very general terms:

The term of rheumatism encompasses all painful disturbances of movement as well as illnesses of the connective tissues and support structures, which can lead to the appearance of chronic symptoms.

The human body has about 400 skeletal muscles, 215 bones, and 100 joints – therefore the occurrence of rheumatic disorders is relatively high. The international classification of diseases (ICD) classifies about 300 to 500 different illnesses within the family of rheumatic diseases. At times, medical classification presents numerous difficulties, because of complex interrelationships and limited knowledge of causes and mechanisms.

Generally speaking, infections, misuse, injuries, immune deficiencies, and incorrect diet can be factors can be among the contributing factors.

The pulsing magnetic fields of the Bio-Electromagnetic Energy Regulation Therapy-therapy, together with other methods used by traditional clinical medicine, can ease the symptoms through improving metabolic functions, and also affect the course of the illness in a positive manner.

Some of the excellent results Bio-Electromagnetic Energy Regulation Therapy-therapy has achieved with rheumatic illnesses are documented in our Euro-study, which included about 300 cases of rheumatic disease. Less severe cases often respond quickly to local treatment with the intensive applicator, which should be used in addition to daily therapy on the mat. For very painful, inflammatory arthritis, Bio-Electromagnetic Energy Regulation Therapy-therapy can be especially helpful through the bio-energetic and metabolic effects, which reduce inflammation and therefore lessen pain!

Further deterioration of cartilage can be reduced and in the most favorable cases a regeneration of the cartilage can be stimulated through the activation of "repair proteins".

Often, severe cases of degenerative and chronic rheumatic diseases call for long-term therapy with low frequency pulsing magnetic fields.

The positive effects of pulsing magnetic fields on metabolic functions of the bone and the entire skeletal support system have been proven in several scientific examinations and the basic principles on which they work are well known:

• Regulation of the metabolism of minerals, especially calcium, which is of significance for the building of bone structure and proper function of muscles.
  
• All-over activation of metabolism improves excretion of acids stored in the tissues, this can be further supported through diet and food supplements.
  
• In addition, anti-inflammatory enzymes are activated, and the production of the already mentioned "repair proteins" is stimulated, which is of significance for the regeneration processes of several tissues.
  
• Another important point is the stabilization of the immune system, which is usually compromised during chronic inflammatory processes. The effects of pulsing magnetic fields here are many-fold (e.g. activation of macrophages, t-lymphocytes, building of anti-bodies, and decrease of autoimmune reaction) and support the support the self-healing powers of the body.
  
• The improved circulation is of special significance for treating muscle tension (e.g. Neck and shoulder).
  
• Hormonal balances are harmonized through central and peripheral effects, which is beneficial for overall well-being as well as metabolism in the bones.
  

In principle, rheumatic diseases need to be approached and treated from a holistic point of view, rather than only being treated locally for pain and improved function.

In addition to Bio-Electromagnetic Energy Regulation Therapy therapy we recommend cartilage-building supplements, enzymes, vitamin E, black molasses, aloe vera and other homeopathic preparations. Other measures which improve metabolic function as well as oxygen therapy may be helpful.
