式で表わされる。The present invention was made in order to improve the drawbacks of the current magnetic therapy devices and dramatically improve the healing effect of diseases.
The present invention is based on a conventional skin magnetic therapy device incorporating or combining a pulse oscillator, a power source, and a skin electrode, and magnetically transmits a current locally to the skin surface of the skin magnetic therapy device of the present invention. The flow is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field of the treatment device, and the force based on Fleming's law regarding magnetic field, current, and force acts on the skin-contacting part of the magnetic treatment device in the normal direction. The electric current J on the skin surface at the skin contact point is
The electromagnetic force F acting on the magnetic treatment device is the magnetic flux density at the surface in contact with the skin, and the relationship between F, J, and B is determined by the following (1), considering the direction determined by Fleming's left-hand rule.
It is expressed by the formula.
