Treatment at a glance

Magnetotherapy

  • What it is

    Magnetotherapy exposes the body — or a specific region — to a low-frequency pulsed magnetic field, delivered through a ring applicator or mat while you lie fully clothed. It is painless and you feel nothing during treatment.

  • Who it's for

    Guests with degenerative joint and spine disease, delayed bone or fracture healing, osteoporosis, and chronic soft-tissue pain.

  • Expected results

    Reduced pain and swelling and supported bone and tissue healing over a course of sessions during your stay.

How it works

A low-frequency pulsed magnetic field passes painlessly through clothing and tissue to reach structures that surface treatments cannot. It influences cell-membrane ion exchange and microcirculation, producing anti-inflammatory, anti-oedema and bone-healing (osteogenesis-supporting) effects deep within joints and bone.

  1. Position

    Duration:5 min

    You lie down, fully clothed, and the ring applicator or mat is placed over the target area.

  2. Treatment

    Duration:20–30 min

    The pulsed magnetic field runs for the prescribed time; you feel nothing and can rest.

  3. Continue

    You get up and continue your day with no downtime.

A typical course is 10–15 sessions over a 2–3 week stay.
