  • Publication number: 20090248098
    Abstract: A device for stimulation via special electric and magnetic fields and optimized field applicators is provided. Derived from human physiology, the autonomic/vegetative nervous system, specifically its sympathetic and parasympathetic components, can be controlled by signals in the frequency ranges of 0.05 to 0.15 Hz and of 0.15 to 0.30 Hz, respectively. Along with other components, these constitute integral parts of corresponding modular physical cardiovascular stimulation programs. By addition of characteristic sinusoidal oscillations, including a positive or negative electric field between the head area and a peripheral area of a human or animal, with the corresponding low-frequency sympathetic or parasympathetic control frequency as base oscillation and with application-typical EEG frequencies and higher-frequency sinusoidal oscillations in the range of ca. 250 to 1500 Hz, characteristic stimulation programs can be established in modular configuration.
