third and the fourth inductors touching the bottom third of lower leg. The coils-inductors
can be fixed. Procedure time15 minutes.

BURSITIS
Bursitis is the
inflammation of joint periarthric bursa. It arises as a result of joints
trauma, high physical activity, as well as aftereffect arthritis illness and some other
infection diseases. There are distinguished acute and chronic bursitis.
Symptoms:
pain in the area of periarthric bursa, swollenness, restriction motion ability
of joint.
Curative effect:
With acute disease period, treatment procedures with the help of
ALMAG device is to be taken after acute process subside (usually on 3-7 day). With
chronic clinical course – in the stage of disease remission. The purpose of treatment with
the help of ALMAG is to relieve pain symptoms; to stop inflammatory process;
restoration of joint function. Under the action of travelling pulsed magnetic field of the
device there is improvement of a blood supply to periarthric bursa and adjoin tissues,
normalization of metabolic processes, the acceleration of the edema resorption, decrease
of inflammation. Treatment results in recovery or, at least, slowing of chronic disease
further progress, remission period extension.
Procedure:
The presence of four coils - inductors in the device makes the treatment greatly easy
and handy. If bursitis strikes shoulder, elbow, knee, foot and hand joints , the coils-
inductors are imposed around a joint, as though winding it (an example of treatment of a
knee joint see fig. 5). At the affection of hip joint, coils-inductors are placed so that last
inductor is to be located on the buttock , a back projection of a joint. Two middle inductors
are being placed on a lateral projection of the joint, and the first one - on a front
projection of a joint (see fig. 6).
Procedures are recommended to carry out 2 times a day, with an interval not less than
6 hours. If two joints or more are affected with bursitis, procedures are to be carried out 2
times a day, one time per joint (for example, one joint in the morning, the other in the
evening). Total time of one procedure should not exceed 20 minutes. Within one course of
