DESCRIPTION
" A THERAPY METHOD, SPECIFICALLY,AN AESTHETIC THERAPY METHOD, SUBSTANCES IN GEL OR CREAM TO ENHANCE THE EFFECT OF THE TREATMENT AND EQUIPMENT REQUIRED FOR THE APPLICATION OF THE METHOD " .
There exist many aesthetic treatments in which various parts of the human body are subjected to vi- brations. These treatments, which are aimed only at aesthetic results do not, however, entirely resolve the problems connected with the physiological condi¬ tions which determine those aesthetic ones- Rather, they effect only external apperances and, in almost all cases, require a long period of treatment and yet do not offer lasting results.
The application of electrical vibrations also,is carried out only for specific purposes and,regardless of the sectors in which it is applied (for example,to stimulate a muscle which does not respond to normal physiological stimulation) is used without descretion and without precise knowledge of how the area being stimulated or the overall organic structure will respond to this stimulation.Dϊ_5£i£i-._--E-2_2--:_-ϊ2----22---i-2—
A therapy method specifically an aesthetic therapy method, which is modifiable according to specific needs and / or requests, is one of the objectives of this invention.
Another of this invention's objectives is the compo¬ sition of substances which render the areas to be trea¬ ted especially receptive to the method mentioned above.
A further objective of this invention is equipment which allows for the application of the method in que¬ stion .
Specifically, the method is bases on non-invasive methods, with the use of electric stimulation at physio¬ logical cell regeneration frequencies applied to the surface of the areas to betreated by means of electro¬ magnetic conductive terminals .
The frequencies of the systems which make up the human body having been determinated according to the invention, a support wave, a natural carrier wave, essentially equivalent to that of the physiological systems to be treated (the blood system, the endocrine system, etc.) is applied and thus reinforces the equi¬ librium of the system itself .
At teh same time, an externally calibrated frequency, an external wave is applied to the tissue to be treated. The interference between the natural carrier wave and the external wave results in a vibration which allows for the achievement of beneficial results with respect to the blemishes which one desires to eliminate. As previously suggested the parts requiring treatment are made particularly receptive by causing certain substances capable of penetrating the lipid structure of the dead cells to reach the superficial layers of the skin. This facilitates the removal of the dead cells following the vibratory impact. These substances are brought to the surface, according to the invention, by using a gel or cream with a specific formula based on essentially natural ingredients. In most cases these gels or creams use oil of pine resin, menthol, bees wax as their primary components. These creams offer two major advantages : a) they facilitate the smooth passage over the skin of the instruments with which one applies the electro- magnetism and ensure a suitable level of conduction; b) thanks to their ability in penetrating the lipid structure of the dead cells they facilitate their physiological elimination .
A rough idea of the apparatus used for the appli¬ cation of the method mentioned above is given in the drawing enclosed in which it is shown on a block diagram. As can be seen from said diagram, it allows the following variables to be selected by means of elec¬ tronic or electro-mechanical switches :
a) physiological conformation
5 b) frequency range c) intensity d) duration e) type of treatment and/or shape of signal f) start/stop reset •"- g) power — on
The apparatus is also provided with a series of electromagnetic conducting bars or brushes.preferably in steel (not shown) of different shapes and sizes and, in all cases, of the material that might ensure" 15 the highest possible effect of the physiological frequencies of cell regeneration for the part under¬ going treatment.
The equipment is obviously provided with two gene¬ rators 1 and 2, one to generate the support or natural 20 carrier wave and the other for the external wave .
The relative outgoing frequencies are in the range of 400 - 1000 Hz for generator 1 and up to 9 Hz for generator 2 .
Needless to say also that the equipment is provided 25 with all the necessary features guaranteeing safety for both the patient and the operator and can be adapted to run, with equal satisfaction,either off battery power or main electricity.
From what has been said so far it should be clear that the invention may be of great assistance and/or support in numerous medical and aesthetic therapies such as:
- pain therapy (as a pain killer)
- muscle toner - cellulitis
- wrinkles, etc.
It must also be added that in practical experiments conducted it was noted that fast, easy and direct vi¬ sible improvements can be obtained from the very first" few treatment sessions; to maintain these results throughout time, applications should be applied metho¬ dically and following a specific timetable.
Examples describe and illustrate just a few things that this invention can do, all other possible appli- cations and variations may be applied subsequently according to technical and practical evaluations during usage, without in any way going beyond the sphere of the invention itslef as it is defined in the claims listed below .
