• Clinical Study of Neck and Shoulder Pain for Therapeutic Effectiveness with Application of Static Magnetic Field

抄録

Pathophysiological study of neck and shoulder pain was carried out using thermography, deep body thermometer and laser Doppler blood flowmeter. The examination with thermography revealed three different types of thermographs: cold group, intermediate group and hot group. The cold group indicated lower skin temperature of painful portion than that of the opposite painless portion. The hot group showed vice versa. In the intermediate group, it was almost the same (±0.3°C) as that of painless portion.<br>Most of the patients in the cold group had chronic history of pain, whereas most of the hot group had acute pain history. Subsequently, clinical pilot study on magnetotherapy was carried out under the double blind test. A static magnetic field was applied externally for this pain using the samalium-cobalt (Sm-Co) magnets (180m Tesla, 4.5mmφ×2.2mm). Dummy magenets (0m Tesla) were also applied at random as placebo. In the cold group, three measurable parameters (skin temperature, deep body temperature and skin blood flow) were monitored for 96 hours to investigate the response to magnetotherapy.<br>Significant pain relief was observed at 24 hours after the application of the active magnets. Skin temperature and deep body temperature increased significantly after 48 hours in the exposure to the active magnets. The highly significant increases of all of three parameters were observed after 72 hours. Until 24 hours after removal of the active and dummy magnets, these parameters showed no significant difference, between double blind test, whereas the pain relief was continued in the active magnets.<br>Therefore, the mechanism of healing of chronic ischemic pain to magnetic field exposure was suggested to be due to the increase of blood flow in microcirculation.
