Almag for arthrosis of the knee joint

The Almag apparatus for joints was created not so long ago after it was proven that the electromagnetic field can have a positive effect on the condition of the human body. This is a physiotherapy device. Its emitters are capable of generating a pulsed magnetic field, which differs:

effective biological activity;
noticeable anti-edematous effect;
anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.

A huge number of reviews confirm that the device has a good effect on the affected areas and improves the health of patients.

Device structure

The Almag-01 device is easy to use, and its design is well thought out. That is why the device can be used both in the physiotherapy room of a medical institution and at home. The main indications for use are problems with the spine and joints, especially with arthrosis of the knee joint.

Treatment with this device is carried out from a regular outlet with a voltage of 220 V. The device includes:

an electronic unit that supplies current pulses;
4 inductor coils for therapeutic effects on diseased areas of the body.

When the device is connected to the network, a special green indicator lights up. The coils must be applied with either side to the places that are bothering you. Treatment with Almag is carried out within 20 minutes. After this, the device turns off itself.

Thanks to the positive effects of the magnetic field, metabolic, immune and neurovegetative processes in the body are restored. As a result, the device is able to relieve inflammation in arthrosis of the knee joint and other affected areas. Blood circulation improves significantly, due to which the main organs begin to work actively. The magnetic field quickly heals wounds and has an analgesic effect.

The Almag device for arthritis and other diseases affects the entire body at the cellular level. Pulsed traveling waves penetrate the skin to a depth of about 6–8 cm and have a positive effect on all important organs. During this process, the tissues are restored, and the electrical balance returns to the desired state. After the first sessions, the treatment gives good results.

Purpose

The ALMAG-01 device is intended for therapeutic effects on the human body using a pulsed traveling magnetic field for the treatment of radiculitis, arthrosis, osteochondrosis, etc. in the conditions of physiotherapeutic departments of medical institutions and at home.

ALMAG-01 consists of a control unit (current pulse generator), an emitter consisting of four interconnected inductor coils used to influence individual affected parts of the body, an emitter cable and a power cord.

Correct use of Almag

It is recommended to use the device only after a doctor’s prescription, having previously passed the necessary tests and been thoroughly examined. Before first use, you should carefully study the instructions.

Special coils can be applied directly to the skin. The course of treatment should be drawn up by the attending physician depending on the severity of the disease. Typically, 10 to 20 sessions are required. The first procedures last 10 minutes, then gradually the time increases to 15–20 minutes. If necessary, the therapeutic course can be repeated after a month. Many patients are satisfied with treatment using the Almag device and leave grateful reviews. Sessions under the supervision of medical professionals are especially effective.

Application

Treatment of the knee joint with Almag can be used for various disorders. It is indicated for the following diseases:

arthrosis;
gout;
bursitis;
Reactive arthritis.

All these ailments are accompanied by severe pain.

Moreover, in all these cases, an acute inflammatory process occurs, provoking swelling of the tissues and damage to their healthy structure. The main goal of treatment for such joint diseases is to eliminate swelling, relieve pain and accelerate the regeneration of cartilage located in the knees. And the influence of the Almag device helps to cope with such ailments without any side effects.

Under the influence of magnetic impulses, blood circulation improves, which begins to supply important elements and oxygen to diseased cells. Due to this, the removal of harmful decay products is accelerated, the inflammatory process is reduced, swelling resolves, the affected tissue is restored, and gonarthrosis of the knee joint goes away.

Magnetic pulses accelerate blood circulation in the affected area

And this is not all the useful properties of the Almag device. Magnetic waves influence nerve endings, thereby dulling the transmission of the signal responsible for the appearance of painful spasms. Therefore, this device places the main emphasis on relieving discomfort and unpleasant symptoms. Thanks to its effects, you can forget about pain. At the same time, the condition of the knee joint improves, it becomes mobile again.

To ensure truly effective treatment, it is better to place the device’s coils around the affected area, as if wrapping it with magnetic inductors. If adjacent areas are affected, as, for example, when the meniscus becomes inflamed, then the coils should be placed along the affected area. The configuration of this device allows you to treat two joints at once in one course. If necessary, therapy can then be repeated, but only after a month.

Who should use the device?

The Almag device can treat not only diseases associated with the spine, signs of arthrosis and gonarthrosis, but also other diseases. For example:

Almag treatment of joints with arthrosis, arthritis, bursitis, gout, fractures and other joint pathologies

vascular and heart diseases (various degrees of hypertension);
phlebeurysm;
problems with the stomach and digestive tract;
biliary dyskinesia;
bronchial asthma, pneumonia;
bone injuries, bruises, burns, bruises, damaged ligaments and muscles, wounds that cannot heal for a long time;
discomfort of the hip joint.

Numerous reviews also talk about the effectiveness of the device for dermatological diseases, problems with the nervous system, complicated diabetes mellitus, headaches and dizziness, gynecological and urological diseases and prolonged depression.

Who should not use the device?

Doctors categorically prohibit treatment with Almag in the following cases:

the entire period of pregnancy and lactation;
acute inflammatory processes in the body and purulent discharge;
recent heart attacks or strokes;
any cancer;
presence of a pacemaker;
severe hypotension;
various blood diseases.

Of particular importance is the contraindication to using the device in the presence of malignant tumors. In this case, there is a very high probability of rapid proliferation of cancer cells.

Patient reviews

According to reviews, only 2% of patients experienced discomfort from using the device, the rest only felt a slight tingling sensation or did not feel any impulses at all. A small proportion of patients say that they did not receive the expected effect from treatment. This happens due to the insensitivity of a certain category of people to magnetic therapy, or the lack of proper patience - a stable effect is possible with long-term use of the Almag device. Most people who have experienced the effect of the device on themselves feel relief from pain; if there is swelling, it disappears almost immediately. Already after the first procedure, improvement in well-being is noted.

Treatment of the spine and knee using the Almag device

Some diseases associated with the spine and joints are very difficult to treat with medications. These are arthrosis, arthritis, gout, osteochondrosis, bursitis. These diseases cause severe pain to a person due to the fact that the inflammatory process begins, the tissues swell, and their structure is destroyed. Some medications and external ointments alleviate the condition, reduce pain and swelling, but the process may soon worsen.

For treatment to be effective, it must be approached comprehensively. To treat joints, you need to take medications and use magnetic therapy.

The Almag device for arthrosis enhances the positive effect achieved with drug therapy and eliminates the cause of the disease. Magnetic pulses help improve blood circulation, which has a beneficial effect on plasma, proteins and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate in the blood.

As a result, breakdown products are eliminated from the body faster, which has a positive effect on the condition of the affected cells. Metabolism accelerates, inflammation goes away, swelling resolves, and the natural process of restoration of diseased tissue begins. The knee and spine begin to function as before.

Therapeutic effect

The most important element of the influence of a magnetic field is contact with charged particles. As a result, exchange within and between cells improves. Redox reactions are launched, metabolism increases. Thanks to the effect of TMMF (traveling pulsed electromagnetic field) and the division of the field across several coils, the entire spine and internal organs are affected during treatment.

A pulsed magnetic field has greater biological activity due to the maximum number of parameters in it - the BIMF has spatial and temporal heterogeneity. Four sources are switched on alternately, resulting in the effect of spatial displacement of the field. A large area of the patient’s body is exposed to the action, but the likelihood of mutual influence of sources and distortion of magnetic fields is excluded. Accustoming to the action of Almag also does not develop due to the constant movement of the source and changes in phase.

Almag causes the following reactions in the body:

improvement of metabolic processes;
improvement of capillary blood circulation;
analgesic effect;
anti-inflammatory effect;
reduction of swelling;
reduction of thrombosis;
increasing immunity and general strengthening of the body;
enhancing the effect of medications taken;
acceleration of regeneration.

Almag-02 device

Almag-02 is an improved device and has more advanced functions compared to Almag-01. This is a professional device for treating many diseases. A modern innovative device is capable of reducing pain, eliminating tumors and inflammatory processes in the body.

Almag-02 with advanced functions is successfully used in medical institutions and at home as prescribed by a doctor.

The device is presented in two types:

"Almag" for arthritis - clinical effectiveness, principle of action and positive effects

Execution 1.
Execution 2.

The device Version 2 has an additional emitter, which has a beneficial effect on internal organs for medicinal purposes. The additional emitter also works great for problems with the knee joint.

Each emitter has its own functions. The main one can be used to treat a significant area of the body. With its help you can cover an entire limb.

There is also a special ruler that is needed to influence small areas. It is capable of penetrating with its radiation to a depth of approximately 15 cm. This helps to cure various diseases.

The Almag device does not take up much space and is a small-sized and convenient device. Many patients purchase it for personal use and are very pleased with the results.

Effect of magnetic field

Alternating and constant magnetic fields induced by physiotherapeutic devices can have both local and general effects on the body:

Pain relief;
Relieving swelling and inflammation;
Restoring vascular elasticity;
Normalization of cartilage and muscle functions;
Strengthening local blood circulation;
Acceleration of the production of collagen and elastin - fibrillar proteins that make up connective tissue.

Almag - use of a device for treating joints

The main principle of the magnetic field is to change the potential of cell membranes and enhance the activity of antioxidants in the blood, which promotes the restoration of damaged tissues. Regular physiotherapeutic procedures help normalize the nutrition of muscles and ligaments, thereby restoring mobility and strength of joints, increasing the amount of synovial fluid and the rate of elimination of toxins in case of infectious joint damage.

In case of fractures and severe damage to bones and bone joints, the magnetic field stimulates osteosynthesis, prevents the growth of osteophytes and the development of joint contracture, and significantly reduces the duration of the rehabilitation period.

Medicinal properties

Almag is quite easy to use; no special knowledge is required to use it, so it is recommended for use at home. After just a few physiotherapy sessions, the patient feels relief, pain and swelling in the affected area disappear. One of the most important advantages of the Almag device is the possibility of its use even in the presence of metal structures in the bones, inserted during surgical operations for complex fractures, and while wearing a cast. Therapeutic properties of the device:

Promotes activation of metabolic processes at the cellular level.
Stimulates blood supply to the affected area.
Reduces swelling and hematomas, promoting the resorption of accumulated fluid.
Effectively relieves pain.
Strengthens the effects of medications.
Reduces side effects of medications.
Accelerates the elimination of toxic substances.
Strengthens local immunity.
Restores the activity of the musculoskeletal system, eliminating muscle atrophy and joint stiffness.

For fractures, the use of Almag allows to reduce the treatment time and the duration of the rehabilitation period. Magnetic impulses contribute to the formation of callus and strengthening of connective tissue. The device can be used for children starting from the age of two.

Types and design features of the device

The Almag device consists of a current pulse generator operating from a 220 V network and an emitter - several inductors connected to each other by elastic jumpers. The device is available in three models:

Almag 01 consists of four inductors that generate traveling pulsed magnetic radiation. The installation affects a depth of up to 7-8 cm. The average procedure time is about 20-22 minutes. The cost of the device is 8.5-9.0 thousand rubles, depending on the region;
Almag 02 acts with a traveling and stationary magnetic field to a depth of up to 20 cm. Now a device of this type is presented in a second version, distinguished by a large number of programs (79 pcs.) and two types of emitters (local magnet and a separate line of 6 inductors). The duration of exposure is about half an hour. The approximate installation price is 57 thousand rubles;
Diamag (Almag 03) – affects a low-frequency magnetic field of low intensity to a depth of up to 20 cm. The flexible “headband” emitter consists of two lines of 6 inductors each. Used to treat brain diseases and neurological disorders. The cost of the device is approximately 25 thousand rubles.

Treatment regimen

According to the instructions for use, before first use, it is necessary to keep the device at room temperature for at least 3-4 hours and disinfect its surface with a solution of medical alcohol with the addition of hydrogen peroxide. When connecting to the network, you should check the operation of the indicator lights: green confirms the presence of power, yellow indicates the formation of a magnetic field. After the procedure is completed, the yellow indicator goes out; You can continue therapy by disconnecting and reconnecting the device to the network.

No more than two joints can be treated at the same time. The total duration of exposure to the magnetic field should not exceed 40 minutes per day. In the standard case, to achieve a lasting effect, at least 10-15 sessions of magnetic therapy should be performed at equal intervals. After 2-3 weeks it is recommended to repeat the course of therapy. The exact number and nature of the procedures is determined by the attending physician.

Important!
During treatment, alcohol consumption and excessive physical and mental stress should be avoided. It is prohibited to carry out procedures on an empty stomach, in case of any ailments or exacerbation of chronic pathologies.

Directions for intended use

After long-term storage during transportation at temperatures below plus 10 °C, before turning on, keep the device indoors at room temperature for at least 4 hours. If necessary, disinfect the outer surfaces of parts of the device by wiping twice with a calico or gauze napkin soaked in a solution approved for use in medical practice for plastic products (for example, a 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide and a 5% solution of chloramine) with intervals between wiping of 10- 15 minutes. In this case, the napkin must be wrung out to prevent the solution from getting inside the device.

There are two light indicators on the control unit housing. Green lights up when the device is turned on to the power supply. Simultaneously with the green indicator, the yellow one lights up, indicating the formation of a traveling magnetic field. It is connected to a timer and goes out 22 minutes after the device is turned on, and the effect stops.

Notes.

To continue operation of the device, it is necessary to disconnect the device from the power supply and turn it on again (turn it on after a period of at least 10 minutes).
After finishing working with the device, you must disconnect the product from the power supply.

The presence of a magnetic field and the operability of ALMAG is confirmed by the blinking of green indicators in the center of each of the four inductor coils. When the product is operating, the indicators should flash at an equal frequency. Additionally, the performance of ALMAG can be checked using a magnetic field indicator, one by one applying it to the inductor coils, from the side of the “N” sign connected to the device’s network. The presence of a pulsed magnetic field will be indicated by a flashing green light in the center of the indicator.

Both sides of the inductor coils are working, however, in the vast majority of techniques, the effect is carried out by the sides of the coils with the north pole (indicated by the sign “N”). The direction of movement of the traveling pulsed magnetic field from the first inductor coil to the fourth. The first coil is considered to be the one to which the cable from the control unit fits.

Treatment is carried out by influencing the lesion, surrounding tissues and reflex zones, placing the device’s inductors directly on the skin. Due to the high penetrating ability of the device’s magnetic field, treatment can also be carried out through clothing, a dry or wet gauze bandage, or a plaster cast up to 1 cm thick.

When used as intended, pay attention to the correct placement of the emitter in accordance with the recommendations specified in the treatment method (direction of the traveling pulsed magnetic field and exposure to the north or south magnetic pole).

Rules for applying inductors

During the procedure, the emitter should be placed in direct contact with the skin. Due to the deep effect of Almag on the joints, it is possible to place the installation on top of clothing.

Both sides of the inductors are working. However, for the treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, it is recommended to place the coils with the north pole (marked with the “N” sign) towards the body. To fix the device, you must use the elastic bandage included in the delivery set. Let's look at how to correctly apply Almag to large joints of the lower extremities:

Hip joint. When using the Almag device for coxarthrosis or injuries of the hip joint, it is necessary to position the emitter so that the outer coils are on the buttock and the front surface of the thigh, and the middle ones on the sides of the acetabulum;
Knee-joint. It is allowed to wrap the device around the knee or place it along the leg so that one extreme coil is located on the thigh and the other on the tibia. For knee pain caused by gonarthrosis, arthritis or increased physical activity, it is recommended to fix the emitter ruler just above or below the knee;
Ankle joint and small joints of the foot. Depending on the location of the pathological process, the device should be placed along the ankle or wrapped around the foot so that the outermost induction coils are on the sole and dorsum of the foot. For Achilles bursitis, the working part of the device is placed on the heel side. For dislocations and soft tissue injuries, it is recommended to place the emitter around the ankle. In case of damage to the big toe due to gout, Almag is placed on the inner lateral surface of the foot. The middle coils should be located strictly at the site of the inflamed joint.

Expert opinion
Medical research conducted over the past 15 years confirms the high effectiveness of magnetic radiation treatment. In combination with adequate drug therapy, the use of the Almag device can speed up recovery and reduce the risk of complications by 15-20%.

Methods for applying inductors of the Almag apparatus

Using the device for the treatment of osteochondrosis

Osteochondrosis is one of the most common diseases. Almost all people over working age have experienced its symptoms. The causes of the development of the disease are various, among the risk factors: poor posture and curvature of the spine. Treatment should be comprehensive: medications, physical therapy and physiotherapy are used. One of the effective methods of treating osteochondrosis is the use of the Almag 01 device.

The optimal time of exposure is before bedtime. The choice of location for inductors depends on the location of the pathological process: cervical, lumbar or thoracic. For the best effect, it is advisable to place the coils in such a way that there are two of them on both sides of the spine. The patient should lie on a flat, hard surface.

Magnetic therapy is prescribed from the initial stage of the disease or from the moment the diagnosis is confirmed, the goal: anti-inflammatory, anti-edematous effect, pain relief. Almag is effective for cervical osteochondrosis, especially in the presence of radicular syndrome. 2 procedures per day are prescribed, the patient must remain in bed. The break between sessions should not be more than 6 hours. In the absence of active symptoms, one magnetic therapy session per day is sufficient. The minimum course of treatment is 15 procedures. In the case of complicated osteochondrosis, their number increases to 20. The break between two courses is at least 30 days, the third course is carried out after 3 months.

Almag is effective for osteochondrosis, this is explained by the following types of effects:

relief of pain as a result of action on nerve roots;
muscle relaxation, elimination of stiffness, restoration of mobility;
improvement of blood circulation, restoration of cartilage tissue;
enhancing the effect of medications taken;
improving well-being, improving quality of life.

If the patient suffers from hypertension, then during treatment it is necessary to monitor the level of blood pressure. The measurement is taken before the procedure and 30 minutes after it. In case of a stable increase in pressure or the appearance of side effects, the procedure is carried out every other day with a shorter duration of exposure. If adverse reactions persist, treatment is stopped.

Features of the treatment of various pathologies of the musculoskeletal system

The procedure for using the Almag device for joint pain may differ depending on the nature of the pathological process.

Mechanical damage to the joint and soft tissues

For bruises, dislocations, sprains and ruptures of joint ligaments, therapy should begin 12 hours after the injury. Before starting treatment, the injured part of the body must be immobilized and swelling should be relieved using cold compresses. Sessions are carried out once or twice a day, the duration of treatment is 6-12 days, depending on the area of the lesion.

Fractures and cracks of bones

Treatment with Almag for fractures is recommended to begin 3-5 days after applying the plaster. During the procedure, inductors can be placed on top of a plaster cast up to 1-1.5 cm thick. In case of extensive damage, the device should be applied alternately in different directions. The procedures are carried out once a day, the duration and number of courses of treatment are determined individually.

I used Almag after a hip fracture. Treatment was carried out in courses of 10-14 days over several months. Regular procedures made it possible to speed up the rehabilitation period and maintain limb mobility.
Maria Mikhailovna, 67 years old, Omsk.

Arthritis, arthrosis and other inflammatory pathologies

Induction treatment of bursitis, tendonitis, arthritis and other inflammatory pathologies of periarticular tissues is carried out after relief of acute symptoms. Therapy should be combined with painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs.

When treating arthritis with Almag, the emitters of the device should be applied along the affected joint, trying to capture the surrounding soft tissue. Every day it is recommended to carry out two procedures for 15-20 minutes, gradually increasing the duration of exposure to 20-30 minutes. The course of therapy is 16-18 days.

Therapy for deforming arthrosis is carried out in a similar way. The duration of treatment is on average 10 days; if necessary, a second course is carried out after 2-3 weeks.

Pathologies of joints that are treated with the Almag device

For symmetrical lesions, magnetic therapy is carried out alternately. So, when using Almag for arthrosis of the knee joints, procedures are carried out in the morning and evening for different limbs. The total duration of therapy increases to 18-20 days. In the chronic course of the disease, treatment of knees with Almag must be combined with other physiotherapeutic procedures and exercise therapy.

The doctor recommended using Almag for the treatment and prevention of arthrosis of the knee joints. Exposure to a magnetic field slowed down the progression of cartilage tissue destruction and helped partially restore the lost mobility of the limbs.
Oksana, 44 years old, Moscow.
