Physiotherapy method

A method for generating an electromagnetic radiation and a thermal convention radiation useful to have a therapeutic effect on a living organism, comprising the steps of:

• (a) providing a means for supplying electrical power;
• (b) providing a transducing circuit control means connected to the power supply means;
• (c) forming a substrate from a heat resistant insulating material and providing therein means for electrical connection;
• (d) connecting an end of the electrical connection means to the transducing circuit control means;
• (e) coating a transducing layer on the substrate such that the transducing layer is in contact with the other end of the electrical connection means in the substrate, the transducing layer comprising a mixture of about 80-120 parts by weight of tin tetrachloride, about 0.5 to 2 parts by weight of antimony trichloride and about 0.3 to 2.5 parts by weight of iron trichloride;
• (f) heating the substrate and the transducing layer at a temperature of about 600.degree. to 900.degree. C. for about 1-6 hours, and then cooling to room temperature;
• (g) evenly coating the transducing layer with a radiation generating layer comprising a homogeneous mixture of magnesium oxide, iron oxide, manganese oxide, molybdenum oxide, zinc oxide, lithium oxide, copper oxide, titanium oxide, strontium oxide, chromium oxide, cobalt oxide, vanadium oxide, chromium metal and mixed rare-earth elements and/or compounds in a proportion by weight of about 0.5-8%:
• about 7-30%:
• about 0-6%;
• about 0.6-5%;
• about 1-17%;
• about 0-4%:
• about 1-7%:
• about 0-7%:
• about 0-5.5%:
• about 25-85%:
• about 0-5%:
• about 0-10%:
• about 0.5-4%:
• about 0-40%, said radiation generating layer being made from a homogenous mixture having a composition selected from a group consisting of magnesium oxide, iron oxide, molybdenum oxide, zinc oxide, lithium oxide, copper oxide, titanium oxide, strontium oxide, chromium oxide, cobalt oxide, vanadium oxide, chromium metal, mixed rare earth elements and/or compounds in a ratio by weight of 2:30:0.6:6:1.5:1.2:2:1.2:37:0.3:5:1.2:12;
• and
• (h) generating the electromagnetic radiation and the thermal convention radiation from the radiation generating layer by electrically resistance heating the transducing layer on the substrate with the power supply means through the electrical connection means.
