Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT)
That’s why Advanced Foot & Ankle Centers of Illinois is delighted to introduce Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) to the Chicago area. EMTT is an FDA-approved procedure that has demonstrated its effectiveness with minimal risk when administered by professionals. Most patients report no discomfort during or after the procedure, and pain relief can often begin after just two or three sessions, each lasting less than 30 minutes.
Referred to as Magnetolith, EMTT treatments have gained widespread acceptance in professional and collegiate sports. We are thrilled to offer this treatment option to our patients seeking relief from foot pain, sports-related injuries, and various other discomforts.
What is the Magnetolith System?
The Magnetolith system represents a non-invasive treatment method that envelops the affected body area in a high-frequency magnetic field with a superior oscillation frequency compared to competing treatments. This high oscillation rate allows the field to penetrate deeper into the body, delivering more substantial results for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.
EMTT stands out from other non-invasive elective treatments due to several key features:
- No direct skin contact is necessary; you can remain fully clothed during your treatment.
- Fast treatments, typically lasting up to 20 minutes.
- Immediate return to daily activities.
- Minimal to no discomfort or reported side effects.
- FDA-approved.
How Does the Magnetolith System Work?
The Magnetolith system employs the same energy as an MRI but is tailored for treating musculoskeletal injuries, including various sports-related injuries. The high-frequency magnetic energy effectively provides therapeutic relief to damaged tissue, stimulating the healing process. It can also enhance blood flow, reduce inflammation, and restore functionality to cell walls.
Your journey to Magnetolith treatment begins with a consultation at Advanced Foot & Ankle Centers of Illinois. We will assist you in determining whether EMTT is suitable for your specific condition and then schedule your initial treatment. You may require eight or more sessions, with noticeable improvements typically occurring halfway through your treatment cycle.
During Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy, you will remain fully clothed and sit in a comfortable position that exposes the targeted treatment area. There is no direct contact with the EMTT machine.
What Does the Magnetolith System Treat?
EMTT was designed to address injuries and diseases affecting the musculoskeletal system effectively. It can successfully treat a wide range of conditions and injuries that lead to foot and lower body pain. Common applications for EMTT system include:
- Arthritis
- Sprains
- Subchondral level inflammation
- Sever’s disease
- Degenerative joint diseases
- Pain therapy
- Sports injuries
One of the significant advantages of EMTT technology is its versatility. If you are experiencing discomfort or pain impacting your joints, tendons, or other parts of the musculoskeletal system, consult with our team of podiatry experts about this remarkable treatment option.
What’s the Hype About Magnetolith Treatment?
EMTT has garnered significant attention in the sports industry due to its safety and non-invasiveness, which can accelerate recovery rates for injured athletes. As the technology becomes more accessible to medical providers, individuals suffering from pain and discomfort caused by disease and injury are experiencing its direct benefits.
You don’t need to be a professional athlete or even consider yourself an amateur to reap the benefits of Magnetolith treatments. If you live with chronic pain or are recovering from a musculoskeletal injury, EMTT may offer relief while expediting the healing process.
