Abstract: A device for applying a time-varying magnetic field to a human or animal body for therapeutic purposes comprising a magnetic body (72), housed in a free moving member (80), which is it-self housed within the device. The device is powered by a small electric motor that drives the free moving member (80) and magnetic body (72) to rotate about an axis of first rotation. The magnetic body is further caused to rotate around an axis of second rotation through angular forces imparted on it either mechanically or magnetically. Mechanical angular force is imparted by a gear and tooth arrangement or other similar tactile interaction with a roller member (106). Magnetic angular force is imparted by stationary magnets (110) as the magnetic body (72) rotates past them. The two rotational movements of the magnetic body (72) are oblique to one another and produce both a time-varying field of magnetic flux density and a time varying field of angular flux displacement.

Abstract: This invention includes embodiments which combined the application or simultaneous application of magnetism, light waves and sound for a therapeutic effect, all through one applicator. The controller may be programmed or configured to provide relative timing of the application of the magnetism, light waves and sound relative to one another and in an intermittent way for a desired therapeutic effect. The applicator may also provide embodiments wherein one or more of magnetism, light waves and sound may be utilized to prepare the recipient to be a better recipient of one or more applications of magnetism, light waves and sound.

Abstract: A system including a method and apparatus for applying sound wave therapy to a mammal utilizing a silicone layer at or near the skin to enhance the therapeutic affect.

Abstract: Provided are exemplary embodiments of a magnetic therapy device, which may include a rotatable housing, a first magnetic element configured to rotationally couple to said rotatable housing, a second magnetic element adjacent to said rotatable housing that affects the rotation of said first magnetic element, such that said first magnetic element simultaneously rotates about two axes, and an enclosure configured to enclose the magnetic therapeutic device, and configured to receive a portion of a body for treatment.
