Apparatus designed to modulate the neurovegetative system and integrate its action with that of the central nervous system; applications in the treatment of the vascular system and orthopaedic disorders

A method of the treatment of vascular and/or muscle and/or tendon disorders, comprising:

• a) applying to a patient in need thereof, a series of electrical pulses having a width from 10 to 40 μsec and intensity from 100 to 170 μAmp, wherein each pulse has a peak that has a width from 7 to 12 nanosec. and a voltage up to 220 Volts through electrodes located on the epidermis of the area to be treated;
• b) detecting the tissue reaction after the application of the pulses;
• c) modifying the width and intensity of the pulses in relation to the tissue reaction detected in point b).

A method for increasing the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) in a patient in need thereof, comprising:

• a) applying to a patient in need thereof, a series of electrical pulses having a width from 10 to 40 μsec and intensity from 100 to 170 μAmp, wherein each pulse has a peak that has a width from 7 to 12 nanosec. and a voltage up to 220 Volts through electrodes located on the epidermis of the area to be treated;
• b) detecting the tissue reaction after the application of the pulses;
• c) modifying the width and intensity of the pulses in relation to the tissue reaction detected in point b).
