Therapy and Treatment
Nail fungus is one of the most common nail disorders, affecting millions of people worldwide. This stubborn infection is not only an aesthetic problem but can significantly impair quality of life. Traditional treatments, such as topical or oral antifungal agents, often have limited effectiveness and can cause side effects. In recent years, however, a promising new technology has emerged: softlaser therapy, represented by innovative devices like the Nailit device.
I am often approached by people with musculoskeletal problems. I frequently notice that most of them want some medication or surgical intervention that will immediately solve their complaints. Such an immediate fix does not exist. In fact, I am convinced that physiotherapy can often be the most effective solution. In this article I would like to explain why I often recommend physiotherapy and how it can help your recovery.
The Achilles tendon, our body's strongest yet most vulnerable tendon, deserves special attention because it plays a key role in everyday movement. This massive connective tissue structure connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, enabling walking, running and jumping. However, precisely this constant demand makes it particularly prone to inflammation and injury.
Magnet therapy is a modern treatment method that uses electromagnetic fields to support the body's natural healing processes. Electromagnetic fields occur naturally in our environment, and our body's cells continuously respond to these signals. Therapeutic magnetic fields can help cell regeneration, reduce inflammation and relieve pain. The treatment outcome depends on the parameters of magnet therapy […]
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? Why didn’t your GP, your rheumatologist, or your physiotherapist recommend it? Why do you have to learn about it from an online article?
That’s a fair and important question. The answer is complex — and it’s not about doctors being malicious or deliberately withholding information. The reality is much more complicated, and if you understand the background, you’ll not only view your doctor differently but also be able to cooperate with them more effectively.
What is grounding, or in Hungarian „földelés”? Grounding (or earthing) means making direct contact with the Earth, for example by standing barefoot on the ground or by using a product that is grounded. This connection allows your body to take on the Earth's natural electric charge, which supplies electrons to the body. Research suggests these electrons may reduce [...]
Facial neuralgia, medically called trigeminal neuralgia or facial nerve tic, is one of the most painful neurological conditions and can significantly affect your daily life. This chronic pain syndrome occurs in the area of the 5th cranial nerve, the trigeminal nerve. This nerve is responsible for sensory innervation of most of your face and for controlling the muscles used for chewing.
The strengthening of the back muscles may be necessary for many reasons. The primary goal is to increase spinal stability. Nowadays, due to sitting/standing work and lack of exercise, back pain is a common complaint. In this article you will find a generally applicable 3-month program that helps strengthen your back muscles without increasing pain, risking a herniated disc, or even needing surgery. In earlier articles (for example this one) I explained why this is effective, so here I will focus only on outlining the treatment steps.
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).
Magnetotherapy is a physiotherapeutic treatment method that uses electromagnetic energy to stimulate the regeneration of severely damaged tissues and support the body's self-healing processes. It can help reduce symptoms primarily in damage to bones, joints and cartilage. I recommend its application in conditions such as bone fractures, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, rheumatism, arthritis, heel spur, herniated disc, lumbago and many other conditions; it also has beneficial effects in lymphoedema. Learn how it works and why it is effective.
Neuromodulation refers to modifying or regulating nervous system activity using various techniques, often employing electrical or chemical stimulation. Its main goal is to alter the functioning of neural networks to achieve a therapeutic effect in the treatment of neurological or psychiatric conditions. Types of neuromodulation Electrical neuromodulation Electrical neuromodulation modifies the activity of neural pathways using electrical impulses. It is divided into invasive and non-invasive methods. Invasive electrical neuromodulation […]
Radiation therapy, also known as radiotherapy, is a method of treating cancer in which high-energy rays destroy cancer cells. Most often X-rays are used for this purpose, but there are other types of radiation therapy as well, including proton therapy. Modern radiotherapy techniques are precise. Beams of radiation are directed straight at the cancer cells while protecting healthy tissues from high-dose […]
