Hydromagnetic apparatus for non-surgical in vivo removal of calcium deposits

Abstract

A method and apparatus for removal of unwanted calcium from living organisms, particularly man, the invention provides non-invasive treatment modes for conditions such as arthritis and the like by subjection of the affected portion of the body to rotating magnetic fields. In particularly, magnetic members supported on a rotary plate and positioned thereon in an alternating polarity arrangement are caused to rotate at a desired angular velocity, the portion of the body which is subjected to the magnetic field being spaced from the rotating magnetic members at a desired distance. A magnetic field intensity of 50 gauss, such as at a distance of 12 inches, has been found to be effective at a rotational speed of 55 rpm, treatments preferably occurring periodically for a duration of from several minutes to approximately an hour at spaced temporal intervals over a several month period. The present treatment modes yield relief from discomfort and cause the body to eliminate excess calcium.
