Abstract: A therapeutic device and process utilizes an array of members in which each member is both magnetically coupled to a magnetic source and electrically coupled to a source of electrical signals. In the preferred embodiment, the members include both ferromagnetic members and diamagnetic members. The members are controlled to enable variations of electromagnetic stimuli by selectively adjusting applied electrical signals to the two types of members. The ferromagnetic members and the diamagnetic members may be placed in alternating rows. The rows may be individually controlled with respect to applying alternative electrical signals, as well as with respect to enablement and disablement. A thermal module may be included in order to also apply thermal stimulus. Some embodiments include the capability to monitor effects of the stimuli to the skin of the person.

Abstract: A therapeutic device comprised of an arrangement of points in an array (100, 112, 130, 172, 174) in flexible mounts (102, 112, 120, 122, 140, 144, 146, 182). The points are connected by electrically conductive materials (106, 108) permitting application of electromagnetic forces in easily varied configurations of accessories (178, 80) with options for monitoring and control (160, 162, 168, 170). The preferred embodiment (172, 176) is designed for simplicity, convenience and portability. An alternative embodiment (174) accommodates additional sensors and therapeutic devices suitable for clinical use and scientific research.

Abstract: This invention, fundamentally a regular array of points, is applied non-invasively to a subject and it induces, monitors and controls a variety of therapeutic stimuli. It is effective in novel and non-obvious ways when the points are spaced approximately 3 to 6 mm apart. Further development includes patterns of electromagnetically dissimilar metal points, a magnetized support, and configurable electrical connections along with various controllers and stimulus sources. This device can administer an unprecedented variety of therapeutic stimuli in unprecedented combinations. Effects arise galvanically, through interaction of point arrays with the magnetized support, and by application of electromagnetic forces. It can electronically monitor both stimuli and local subject response through the points themselves enabling effective controls and an avenue for research. Its flat shape accomodates accessories to apply other stimuli such as heat.
