Deep-tissue electromagnetic stimulation system, professional
Definition
An assembly of devices designed to apply an electromagnetic (EM) field to body tissues to: 1) treat musculoskeletal disorders (e.g., osteoarthritis, osteoporosis); 2) treat body pain (musculoskeletal, postsurgical); 3) help facilitate soft and hard tissue wound/injury healing; and/or 4) reduce subcutaneous fat layers by muscle stimulation. It includes an electrically-powered control unit and application pads/flat coils intended to emit EM radiation to the treatment site. It is not intended to apply an electric current directly to the body nor produce therapeutic deep heat. The system is intended to be used in a clinical setting only.
