A device (100) for the treatment of depression, anxiety and pain, the device comprising: a plurality of adjacent dots (11) or other shapes, each comprising means for providing a signal being sensible by a touch sense, the signal comprising mechanical signal and/or electrical signal and/or temperature signal and/or magnetic signal; and a controller (32) for executing each of the means independently, for providing pre-programmed shapes (30, 40, 40A, 40B, 42, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54) being sensible by the touch sense, thereby allowing treating the depression, anxiety and pain by generating to the brain, signals resembling the pre-programmed shapes (30, 40, 40A, 40B, 42, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54) through the signals being sensible by the touch sense.

In combined methods for treating a patient using time-varying magnetic field, treatment methods combine various approaches for aesthetic treatment. A magnetic field generating device is placed proximate to a body region of the patient. The magnetic field generating device generates a time-varying magnetic field with a magnetic flux density in a range of 0.5 to 7 Tesla. The time-varying magnetic field is applied to the body region of the patient in order to cause a contraction of a muscle within the body region. A second therapy may be used by applying one or more of optical waves, radio frequency waves, mechanical waves, negative or positive pressure or heat to the body region of the patient.

There is provided in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the invention a method of osteointegration of an implant into surrounding jaw-bone, the method comprising: applying a magnetic field around an implant, the magnetic field produced around the implant to a jaw-bone depth of up to at least about 7 mm, the magnetic field having a magnetic flux density of about 0.05-0.5 mT at up to at least about 2 mm from a surface of the implant, the magnetic field produced by a coil within the implant. A device adapted for insertion into a jawbone implant and for producing the magnetic field for bone enhancement of surrounding jawbone is also described.

A method for accelerating the migration of cells by applying a time-varying magnetic field to induce eddy currents that promote electrotaxis (galvanotaxis) of cells. The method of the present invention accelerates the healing of wounds by electrotaxis of cells.

A system to generate and sense electrical energy to and from tissue within a mammalian body. The system includes a flexible shaft and an electrical generator disposed on or embedded within the flexible shaft. Radially displaceable arcuate arm members forming electrodes are displaceable responsive to actuation of the electrical generator.

The present disclosure describes a method of regulating (re-balancing) the brain's immune system to decrease occurrence and/or severity of age-related diseases and increase life span. According to the method, an array of electromagnetic emitters are positioned proximal to the subject. An electromagnetic wave generator generates electromagnetic waves at a predetermined set of parameters. In an example of the emitters positioned proximal to the subject's head, the brain's immune function is normalized/rebalanced in an area under the electromagnetic emitters by applying the electromagnetic waves to the subject through the electromagnetic emitters. With either head or body placement of emitters, a rebalancing of the brain's cytokines/immune mediators occurs, which should result in less occurrence or severity of age-related diseases and, thus, increase human life span. Alternatively, electromagnetic treatment may increase human life span through other mechanism(s) or effects that work independent of, or in concert with, a reduced occurrence/severity of age-related diseases.

Apparatuses, systems and methods of treating a vertebrate organism via application of signals in a manner that enhances biological function. The signals applied can be produced by an electronic circuit, and can comprise magnetic fields emitted via one or more coil emitter devices.

The present invention classifies disorders, including Local Anesthetic Responsive Headaches as a general class. The present invention also uses exclusion and inclusion criteria in order to better determine the proper treatment of disorders including dorsonasal targeted therapies.

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) can be applied to a dystrophic muscle to delay dystrophy progression. A light source device can be contacted to a subject's skin proximal to a dystrophic muscle or muscle group. A light signal (with wavelengths from the red to infrared part of the spectrum) can be applied in at least one of a pulsed operating mode, a continuous operating mode, and a super-pulsed operating mode through the light source device to the dystrophic muscle or muscle group. The light signal is applied for a time sufficient to stimulate a phototherapeutic response in the dystrophic muscle or muscle group.

A method and system of sensitization of cancerous cells in a volume is disclosed. A plasma tube including a pair of electrodes coupled to a power supply is provided. The plasma tube generates a plasma jet between the electrodes. A controller is coupled to a power supply to control a discharge voltage to the electrodes to generate the plasma jet and direct an electro-magnetic field at the volume having cancerous cells and normal cells for a sufficient time to sensitize the cancer cells. A treatment device applies a treatment such as TMZ to the sensitized cancer cells after the cancer cells are sensitized by the electro-magnetic field.
