EMTT and the first 30 million pulses

EMTT and what it does

Magnetolith EMTT and how it makes a difference in clinical practice.

In March 2020 when the pandemic set Europe into lockdown, I had the delivery of the first Nordic EMTT device.

New novel technology, limited known protocols, and a basic introduction to the science behind. I must admit, I was a bit skeptical in the beginning, but during 2020 it had replaced more than 90% of my normal use of level 4 laser in the clinic. Which I normally combined with ESWT.

So let’s dive into my experience with the EMTT technology so far.

Knee osteoarthritis (and others)
The first cases I worked with, was osteoarthritis in the knee. I’ve been working for years with Level4laser and ESWT in a combination, so it was natural to start working with that indication, to learn more about the EMTT effect.

10 clients, 3 treatments in 2 weeks, 4000 pulses, intensity 8, 8 hz and then I saw a reduction in pain in 37%, stiffness 45% and difficulty 35% at the WOMAC score, right after the 3rd treatment. These results showed being better, than what I experienced with treatment with laser before.

Then I started combining EMTT and ESWT for knee osteoarthritis, and after initial treatments, clients can go between 5-8 weeks with higher QoL and less pain, between a single session.

Fractures
As one of the first cases that showed the potentiel of EMTT, was when i had an Ice-hockey player with a Scaphoid fracture. The wrist was fixated with a cast, and there was no direct access to the fracture area for ESWT application.

I decided to do a treatment of 5000 pulses, and after the first 400 pulses, the client could feel vibration/tingeling sensation in the bone. That showed the potentiel for deeper treatment in the body, and the ability of working non-invasive, even when access is limited. In total we did 3 session with succes, in quicker healing and pain reduction.

General approach:
As shown for several years, the combination of ESWT and RSW have an enhanced effect in different indication. I believe that in the next 10 years, we will see even more studies, showing the combination between EMTT and ESWT will make significant difference in patients outcome.

In the same time, due to holding arm, it is possible to do more efficient treatments, due the ability of applying EMTT in one place, and then ESWT in another area.

Conclusion
With the addition of EMTT to the treatment domain, I’ve seen
Reduction in the number of sessions
Increased pain relief for especially larger non-specific pain areas
Increased elasticity in the tissue
Enhanced effect of ESWT
Tension release in muscles and increased circulation
Decrease in inflammation in tissue (without adding pain)
More efficient and holistic workflow in treatment

So in total, I am very happy with the results i gets from using the MAGNETOLITH in my clinical setup, and can only recommend you to try it.

Presentation at the Danish Sexologist Association

Erectile dysfunction in a multidisciplinary setting

This weekend I had the pleasure of giving a presentation at the Danish Sexologist Association, where I talked about the importance of interdisciplinary efforts in connection with erection problems.

“Erektil dysfunktion kan beskrives som en manglende evne til at opnå og opretholde en rejsning, der er tilstrækkelig til at gennemføre samleje på tilfredsstillende måde.”

That's why it's also important to know that erection problems can come in many forms, and that it's not just about either/or, can't/can't.

It opens up a wide range of potential causes - both physiological and psychological - in the men affected.

Physiological causes of erection problems

If we start with the very basic things that can have a big impact on what we will call a vascular erection problem (limited blood supply), then KRAM factors could have a big impact. KRAM refers to Diet, Smoking, Alcohol and Exercise. In addition, Peyronie's disease (curvature of the penis) and testosterone levels can also affect erection.

Teaching at Storz Medical

Yesterday I had the pleasure of teaching a number of shockwave experts from Thailand who were visiting STORZ MEDICAL AG .

I was flown to Switzerland to teach at a high level that can easily be applied to everyday life.

All are skilled physicians who have worked with focused shockwave for many years. The purpose of their visit was to increase their knowledge and skills in combined treatment with focused, radiating Shockwave and EMTT, which is my specialty.

It was a really good workshop, with a good dialogue and introduction to new techniques that they can take back to their respective hospitals and implement with their staff as soon as they land from the trip to Europe.

Ultrasound scan of the heart for erection problems

Last week, the clinic received a new ultrasound scanner from Echonous, which uses artificial intelligence to provide a very accurate measure of the heart's pumping capacity. This is also called the cardiac output factor.
This possibility to screen heart function is to be used in the treatment of erection problems, which may be a symptom of underlying disease of the cardiovascular system.
The purpose of the screening will be to encourage investigation by your own doctor/cardiologist. At the same time, it will provide important information about the cause of the erection problems, along with the other tests and examinations.
In addition, I will continuously collect information and data on possible correlations between different degrees of erection problems, heart function and blood flow in the penis locally.
This does not replace a trip to the doctor, but can be a first step on the road / lever, for those who have not yet plucked up the courage, and talked to their doctor about the problems they have, in relation to their general health. Unfortunately, talking about erection problems is still a big taboo in our society.
I look forward to an exciting autumn of new learning, where I will be set up with Secma Medical's experts in cardiology, to become proficient at the scans and examinations relevant to erection problems.
