  • Patent number: 10967194
    Abstract: A device for generating pulsed electromagnetic fields is described, along with methods of using the device to treat patients by exposure to the pulsed electromagnetic fields. The treatments utilize pulsed electromagnetic fields based on the fundamental Schumann resonance frequency and the first 6 harmonics of that frequency. Various embodiments of the treatment methods include frequency sweeps across or hops between one or more of the Schumann resonance frequencies.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5897505
    Abstract: A diagnostic device for measuring selective tissue conductance and temperature is described which can be used to assess pain, abnormal sensation or sympathetic dysfunction in a human being or animal. Two spaced-apart electrodes are mounted together for measuring conductance of tissue over a selected region. A temperature sensor is positioned adjacent the electrodes for measuring tissue temperature in the selected region. A circuit is provided for indicating measured temperature and conductance to a user for localizing a region of sympathetic nerve dysfunction. In preferred form, the device indicates measured temperature and conductance visually and/or audibly by utilizing a measurement of both selective tissue conductance and temperature together. A more specific and useful diagnosis of sympathetic nerve dysfunction may be made than through the use of sensing either conductance or temperature separately.
