Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of a device, known per se, for non-invasive pain treatment by means of an impulse sound source, which has a therapy head for generating acoustic pulses which are introduced into the human body.
- shock wave sources that generate shock waves have been successfully used in the treatment of kidney, gall and saliva stones for a long time. Likewise, the use of such shock wave sources in the bone area is e.g. known for delayed bone fracture healing.
- DE-C-40 11 017 by the applicant describes a device for generating focused shock waves with two flat shock wave sources, the sources being of different types.
- an electromagnetic shock wave source is used in combination with a piezoelectric shock wave source.
- This device is particularly suitable for non-contact lithotripsy.
- DE-C-195 43 344 of the applicant describes a device for treatment close to the surface by means of a shock wave therapy source and a coupling arrangement for introducing the shock waves generated by the shock wave therapy source a patient.
- the shock wave source is used in particular for non-invasive stone crushing in the patient's body.
- the applicant's DE-C-195 21 475 relates to a device for coupling therapeutic and / or diagnostic sound waves and / or shock waves into the extremities of human bodies.
- This device consists of a partially or fully elastic container surrounding the corresponding extremity, which is filled with a coupling fluid.
- These devices use acoustic pulse sources, the pulses of which can develop into shock waves by focusing on the therapy area.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a new use for devices of acoustic pulse sources with or without focusing.
- This task is solved according to the invention by using a pulse sound source which is known per se and which has a therapy head for generating acoustic pulses which are introduced into the human body for the treatment of cellulite.
- Cellulite (vulgo: cellulitis) is understood as non-inflammatory, constitutionally-related obesity with mild yeast congestion and little mucoid edema formation in the area of the connective tissue. It occurs particularly in women in the thigh and gluteal region and is often associated with the so-called mattress phenomenon, ie a surface retracted like a net through connective tissue septa, and with the orange peel phenomenon, ie painful, funnel-shaped Follicles draw pinches, but without these phenomena having disease value. Therapy is not yet possible; prophylactically, weight loss and physical training are recommended.
- DE-C-27 29 010 describes a medicament for the treatment of cellulite and fat obesity, the medicament being derived from an association of Mocopolysacche ⁇ dasen, which are possibly associated with the hyaluronidase, which contains at least one of the active ingredients from the following group are - 3, 5, 3 '-Tniod-Thyroacetic acid, its esters or salts, 3, 5, 3' -T ⁇ iod-Thyropopionklare, ⁇ eren esters or salts, 3, 5, 3 '-Tnjod-Thyrobuttersaure, their esters or salts, Acetazolamide, Aescm.
- Mocopolysacche ⁇ dasen which are possibly associated with the hyaluronidase, which contains at least one of the active ingredients from the following group are - 3, 5, 3 '-Tniod-Thyroacetic acid, its esters or salts, 3, 5, 3' -T ⁇ iod-Thyropopion
- DE-U-296 12 123 describes a dermapermeables gel for subcutaneous lipid metabolism and for the treatment of cellulite, consisting of the combination of the three active plant substances: a) ephedrine hydrochloride, b) caffeine, c) salicylic acid (or its derivative acetylsalicylic acid)
- DE-U-296 16 496 discloses an emulsion of orange oil, whey powder, sea salt and an emulsifying ointment (Unguentum Emulsifacans aq.) For the treatment of cellulite
- pulse sound sources according to the invention which induce acoustic pulses in the soft tissue regions covered with cellulite, leads to better blood circulation and tightening of the tissue, since the body cells respond to the see pulses react by activating the body's own repair mechanisms.
- the radiated acoustic pulses stimulate the metabolism of the affected tissue layer, so that the exchange of nutrients and waste products via cell gaps, capillaries and the lymphatic system is accelerated.
- the deposition of waste products in the intercellular space can be counteracted by the irradiated acoustic pulses, since the acoustic pulses lead to a change in the consistency of the waste depot and the removal is thereby facilitated.
- the thin interstitial space between cells should not contain more liquid than necessary to enable a healthy intact cell environment for the efficient exchange between nutrients and waste products. If there is too much fluid, the cells are pushed apart and the distance between the individual cells and between cells and capillaries increases. This makes metabolism more difficult and creates inefficient tissue.
- the minerals sodium and potassium in the tissue work together as a pump that challenges nutrients into the cells and waste materials from them.
- a state of congestion in these tissues weakens this extremely important mechanism and impairs the metabolism. This leads to tissue slagging and thus to a further impairment of the metabolism and thus to a slower cell metabolism.
- the body's own waste products can accumulate faster than can be removed.
- microcirculation to the cells and tissues is impeded, less oxygen and nutrients are transported to the cells and less waste material is removed from the cells.
- tissue slagging which further reduces cell activity and can manifest itself in the form of cellulite.
- the task of the lymphatic system is to remove superfluous liquids and cellular waste products as well as other substances from between the cells and to transport them to the lymph nodes.
- the lymphatic system runs primarily in the subcutaneous tissue and is solely dependent on muscle activity and deep breathing. When the lymphatic flow slows down, the interstitial fluid in the tissue stagnates. Such stagnation leads to the formation of cellulite in areas with poor circulation, where the reflux is largely based on gravity, such as the hips and thighs.
- acoustic pulses stimulate the metabolism of the affected tissue layer and accelerate the exchange of nutrients and waste products through cell gaps, capillaries and the lymphatic system.
- the deposition of waste products in the intercellular space can be countered by the acoustic pulses, since these lead to a change in the consistency of the waste depot and thus the removal is facilitated.
- an impulse sound source such as that produced by the applicant under the name Epos and which provides a variable effective acoustic energy of 0.6 to 12 mJ in a penetration depth range of 0 to 60 mm.
- unfocused impulse sound sources are used, the primary acoustic pulses of which are so energetic that their rising flank rises until the therapy area is reached so that they have the pulse shape of a shock wave.
