Magnetic field therapy-does it affect soft tissue? *

R Railton et al. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther. 1983.

Abstract

Claims that magnetic field therapy improves peripheral circulation and tissue oxygenation have been tested on normal volunteers. Transcutaneous oxygen tension measurements were made and skin temperatures measured in a double blind trial. Using recommended magnetic field configurations, no significant effects attributable to the magnetic field therapy could be demonstrated. J Orthop Sports Phy Ther 1983;4(4):241-246.
