In recent years social media and online marketplaces have been flooded with extremely cheap “medical” and “cosmetic” devices. Their ads promise wonderful effects: skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, muscle building, pain relief – often all from a single device, and sometimes for just a few thousand forints. A lay buyer may reasonably think: “If the expensive clinical machines work on a similar principle, why wouldn’t this cheap version work too?” The reality, however, is quite different.
Imagine your life changing overnight. After an unexpected illness or accident you end up in hospital, where doctors do everything to save your life.

The BMI calculator is a simple tool that lets you calculate your body mass index (BMI). This number helps determine whether your weight is in an appropriate proportion to your height.

If you read my previous article on home medical technology, you’ve probably wondered: if these devices are really this effective, if this new therapeutic option really exists, why haven’t you heard about it?

TENS is probably the best-known type of physiotherapy treatment. It's so common that in our country today many people (incorrectly) call any device that provides electrical treatment a TENS device. In fact, electrotherapy includes a range of treatments that can have stronger therapeutic effects than TENS. Examples include EMS (muscle stimulation) and MENS (microcurrent), among others. If you don't know what these strange acronyms mean, what the methods involve and what advantages they bring, read my article.
Nowadays you increasingly hear about one of the newest electrotherapy treatments, neuromodulation, and within that, vagus stimulation. Neuromodulation achieves effects by stimulating the function of certain brain areas or nerves. One type is vagus stimulation, which increases the activity of the parasympathetic nervous system. Some experts believe the method could bring radical change in the treatment of today's most common diseases (diabetes, atherosclerosis, autoimmune diseases, inflammations, depression, stress, sleep disorders and many others).
