Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT®) for regeneration and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal disorders

Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT^®) with the Storz MAGNETOLITH^® opens up new possibilities in regeneration and rehabilitation. The areas of application include diseases of the musculoskeletal system such as lower back pain and tendinopathies of the rotator cuff or achilles tendon.

EMTT^® differs from general forms of magnetic field therapy or PEMF due to the high oscillation frequency of 100 – 300 kHz. EMTT® is 40% stronger than PEMF and enables a higher penetration depth of 18 cm working at a cellular and nerve level rather than only addressing muscles. Sessions of EMTT® can, therefore, treat a far wider range of indications when compared to PEMF.

Typical indications

Magnetolith EMTT® is the only approved electromagnetic therapy for the treatment of musculoskeletal diseases of the muscle, bone, joints, nerves, tendons and tissues. The effectiveness of electromagnetic transduction therapy in contributing to pain reduction for:

Degenerative joint diseases – Signs of wear and tear, e.g. arthrosis (knee, hip, hands, shoulder, elbow), herniated disc, spondylarthrosis
Pain therapy – (Chronic) pain, e.g. back pain, lumbalgia, tension, radiculopathies, heel pain
Sport injuries – (Chronic) inflammation of tendons and joints, tendon overload syndrome, osteitis pubis

Are there any side effects of EMTT®?

EMTT® has no reported side effects. During the treatment the patient may experience mid discomfort and reddening of the skin. The short-lived discomfort the EMTT® treatment creates is just a minor in-convince and will be blinded when compared to the clinical relevant decrease of pain the patient receives.

The MAGNETOLITH^® in daily practice

Treatment with MAGNETOLITH^® is comfortable and straightforward:

The patient does not have to undress
Effective fatigue-free work for the user
Applicator positioning by hand or with the flexible holding arm
A treatment session lasts between 5 – 20 minutes depending on the indication
Adjustable frequency up to 10 pulses/s

EMTT^® Highlights

High-frequency magnetic field (100 – 300 kHz)
Continuous and reliable operation by water-cooled applicator
Click & Connect-Mechanism for a flexible applicator positioning
Simple plug in & plug out to change applicator
Integrated touch display to adjust energy level, frequency & pulse rate

Intuitive operation thanks to clear touch display / Applicator for ease of use

How does EMTT ® support the effectiveness of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy ESWT?

By combining high energy sound waves ESWT on the local treatment area with EMTT ® magnetic fields on a regional treatment area, EMTT® supports the effectiveness of sessions of ESWT by:

Activating the metabolism
Extends the therapeutic field
Further stimulated self-healing
Revitalising the area
Immediate therapeutic effect
