High blood pressure (medically called hypertension) is today the most common disease among Hungarians! When I graduated from university in 1991, official data showed about 1.6 million people in our country were affected. Today nearly three times as many — 4.2 million people with blood pressure problems — are registered. In my opinion there are two main reasons for this: lifestyle on one hand, and seriously flawed medical treatment protocols on the other. But let’s not rush ahead; we’ll go step by step. By the end of this article you’ll understand.
Primarily important for movement and lymph therapists, as well as neurorehabilitation specialists, are the 3S sequential stimulation programs offered by Globus electrotherapy devices. This article discusses these programs, their significance, and how to use them.
Chronic inflammation is closely linked to nutrition, metabolism and the processes of energy production. If you understand why mitochondrial health is so important, then by paying attention to the composition of your food and the timing of your meals, you can prevent a large portion of chronic diseases and counter excess weight without extreme effort or self-denial.
Those who visit beauticians are probably familiar with various electrical face and skin treatments – for increasing firmness and improving the feeling of hydration. You can't expect dramatic results from a single such treatment, and visiting a beautician daily is unrealistic for most. This is where the Globus devices' G-Pulse programs come in: cosmetologist-developed microcurrent treatment protocols designed for home use, suitable for continuous use over weeks or months with a few minutes of daily treatments.
Electrostimulator devices' body-shaping programs have become popular elements of the recent beauty and wellness market — many ads suggest the body can be shaped by “passive training.” The clinical evidence paints a more nuanced picture: the 2021 Kemmler systematic review (PMID 33716787, 16 RCTs, n=897) found that WB-EMS (Whole-Body EMS) yields a large, significant effect on muscle mass and strength, but DOES NOT produce significant body fat reduction by itself. Body shaping therefore is not weight loss — it is increasing muscle tone and fine-tuning existing musculature.
Feminine curves, firm skin, the smallest possible clothing size – in many people's imagination this is the ideal female figure, which women usually try to achieve, getting closer to that goal by trying new methods. Many newly launched products promise to help on this path, but unfortunately most “miracle remedies” fail to live up to expectations. In contrast, there are numerous technologies that can produce truly visible results in the field of beauty care (as well).
The home ergometer is an effective aid for recovery from serious illness, that is, for rehabilitation. In this article you can learn more about these devices.
Nowadays, both public and private hospitals perform knee (TKA – total knee arthroplasty) and hip (THA – total hip arthroplasty) replacement surgeries almost on an assembly line. Worn joints are replaced one after another. However, in a significant proportion of operations the expected degree of improvement does not materialize. Why?
BEMER and magnetic field therapy (PEMF) are related but different. When the BEMER device is mentioned, you often hear that it uses "pulsed magnetic field therapy" – and that is essentially true. Still, anyone who digs a little deeper will quickly realise: BEMER is a specialized variant of the widely used pulsed magnetic field technology. Let’s see how they are similar and what makes BEMER different.
Until the beginning of the last century, the main obstacle to the development of surgery was the lack of a method that could provide pain relief and calm during longer operations. It is obviously impossible to perform precise surgery on a patient who is screaming in pain, convulsing and struggling. Modern anesthesiology — the science of anesthesia and sedation — provides all this. Anesthesia […]
You may have encountered the condition known as a "crooked neck" among people you know. This is a (often painful) disorder in which the neck muscles on one side contract, causing the head to turn or tilt to the side. The loss of balance between the muscles on the two sides (cervical dystonia) results in the head uncontrollably bending to the side, forward, or backward. In medical terminology this condition is called torticollis.
