EMTT and You
There are many ways that you can heal a sports injury. However, you want to ensure that the method or practice you are utilizing is the most effective and healthy option. Every person who obtains an injury should have a personalized plan to treat their injury, developed with their care team, that can quickly allow the person to return to normal activities.
Least invasive options should be considered first, including techniques like Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy. Like ESWT, EMTT is a treatment for those experiencing pain. It is considered a soft tissue engineering therapy, with impulses in voltage to aid in pain-reducing.
What Does EMTT Treat?
EMTT is regenerative medicine technology that is highly recommended for those with inflammation, acute pain, neuropathic pain, or degenerative pathologies. It is effective for those with musculoskeletal system diseases, overused muscles, bone fractures, and arthritis. Many athletes use this treatment to easily target tendons and speed up post-surgery healing. Check out Injuries we treat to learn more.
EMTT®: How It Works
While EMTT relies on a different operating mechanism than ESWT, also known as shock wave therapy, does, the two modalities are highly effective when used together.
In the course of EMTT, painful areas of the body are treated with high-energy magnetic pulses, the field strength of which lies within the therapeutically effective range – 10 mT (millitesla) and upward. With this pulse intensity, it is possible to achieve a therapeutic effect in the cell. The generated energy is transferred via an applicator to the body areas to be treated. The individual pulses penetrate the tissue so that even deeper tissue layers can be reached. There is no temperature increase in the tissue, due to the short duration of the individual pulses.
When looking at the difference between EMTT and ESWT, ESWT acts using high-energy acoustic/physical signals in a local treatment area, while EMTT acts using high-energy electromagnetic radiation in a regional treatment area.

- EMTT is delivered via a freestanding applicator with minimal contact with the skin. EMTT sessions are easy to tolerate, with minimal discomfort, and no known negative side effects. You can remain fully clothed while receiving treatment which may last between 5 and 12 minutes per area and condition being treated.
- We are using EMTT to successfully treat musculoskeletal diseases to include:
- Degenerative joint diseases
- Wear and tear conditions such as osteoarthritis (knees, hips, hands, shoulders, elbows, herniated discs, spondylarthrosis)
- Pain treatment
- Chronic pain to include back pain, lumbago, tension, radiculopathy
- Sports injuries
- Chronic inflammation of tendons and joints, tendon overuse syndromes, inflammation of the pubic bone
- Not only is EMTT a non-surgical, painless, non-invasive procedure, but it also requires no downtime. Although you may feel sore after your EMTT treatment, you can go about daily activities as you normally would.
- Some patients report immediate pain relief and increased range of motion after the treatment. Since the regenerative processes of the body are being restored, patients have a lower chance of pain recurring.
