Magnetotherapy For Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy for arthrosis, fractures, bone oedema and inflammation. The most widely used instrumental therapy for pain and osteoarticular problems — backed by clinical research.
What Is Magnetotherapy
Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF)
Pulsed electromagnetic fields are low-frequency electromagnetic waves that help bone and joint structures strengthen their microstructure when damaged or weak. Magnetotherapy is the most widely used instrumental therapy for pain and osteoarticular problems.
GLOBUS has been the undisputed leader in this technology for years, guaranteeing a reliable and extremely effective device. All products are certified medical devices, with programmes developed through constant research and updated clinical literature.
Clinical Applications
What Magnetotherapy Treats
Arthrosis
The electromagnetic signal penetrates joint structures, exerting an anti-inflammatory effect and reactivating bone and cartilage metabolism. Clear reductions in joint stiffness after just a few sessions.
Fractures
Promotes fracture healing with lower incidence of delayed consolidation, osteonecrosis or reoperation. Significantly decreases post-fracture pain. Can be used over casts and braces.
Bone Oedema
The most frequently prescribed physical therapy for bone oedema — reduces pain and inflammation while stimulating regeneration of bone tissue.
Inflammation
Effective for both acute inflammation (injuries, sprains, surgery) and chronic inflammation (tendonitis, carpal tunnel, epicondylitis). Improves functional recovery and limits anti-inflammatory drug use.
Clinical Evidence
Proven By Clinical Research
Globus devices include programmes developed from the main clinical studies on PEMF therapy. Independent, peer-reviewed research consistently demonstrates significant benefits over placebo across multiple conditions.
94% vs 70%
HIP FRACTURE RECOVERY
Pain reduction in subjects with active PEMF following femoral neck (hip) fracture surgery, compared to placebo. Fewer complications and significantly less pain throughout the full rehabilitation period.
32% vs 15%
KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS
Average improvement after 18 PEMF sessions, with benefit sustained at 26% vs 8% one month later.
74% vs 25%
POST SURGICAL RECOVERY
Of patients receiving active PEMF stopped taking anti-inflammatory medication after arthroscopic knee surgery.
Study 1
Hip Fracture Recovery
E. Betti et al., 1999. Evaluated the effectiveness of PEMF on subjects with femoral neck fracture undergoing surgery within 3 days of trauma. Protocol: 8 hours of daily stimulation for 90 days (75Hz – 30 Gauss).
PEMF following femur fracture proved effective for complete bone consolidation. The placebo group experienced more complications, and pain was significantly less in subjects receiving active PEMF — 94% pain reduction vs 70% in the placebo group.
Study 2
Knee & Cervical Osteoarthritis
Trock et al., 1994. Randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial testing PEMF on osteoarthritis of the knee and cervical spine. Subjects assessed for pain, activities of daily living, pain on movement and joint stiffness. Protocol: 18 treatments of 30 minutes, 3 to 5 times per week (12Hz – 25 Gauss).
Magnetotherapy proved effective for osteoarthritis treatment with clear improvements in daily activities and substantial decrease in joint stiffness and pain. Knee osteoarthritis improved 32% vs 15% after 18 sessions, sustained at 26% vs 8% one month later. Cervical osteoarthritis improved 32% vs 22%, sustained at 29% vs 9% one month later — all results in favour of active PEMF.
Study 3
Post-Surgical Inflammation Reduction
Zorzi et al., 2017. Prospective, randomised, double-blind study evaluating the efficacy of PEMF after arthroscopic knee surgery. Started 5 days post-surgery. Protocol: 6 hours of PEMF daily for 90 days (75Hz – 30 Gauss).
Magnetotherapy proved a valuable treatment to reduce inflammation and promote healing post-arthroscopic surgery, without side effects. The therapy improved functional recovery and limited anti-inflammatory drug intake — 74% of patients receiving active PEMF stopped taking medication compared to 25% in the placebo group.
