Microwave resonance therapy (MRT) is an extremely low intensity microwave radiation administered directly to biologically active points (acupuncture points or reflexogenic zones) on the human body. We used MRT on two patients suffering whiplash injuries and 10 with hemiparesis due to cerebrovascular disease; both showed increases in grasping force and coordination of movement as a result.
How is Microwave Resonance Therapy Used?
Microwave resonance therapy utilizes electromagnetic radiation at millimeter range to stimulate biologically active points (acupuncture points). A distinguishing feature of this form of treatment is that it considers individual patient chiral sensitivities for more efficient irradiation and quicker therapeutical effects.
First step of treatment was selecting an initial subset of BAPs meridionally associated with the damaged organ. Utilizing VIDHUK’s AMRT-02 apparatus for microwave resonance therapy in Ukraine, irradiation was administered at point RP6 — known for its characteristic chiral sensitivity — by gradually altering frequencies and power density levels using attenuators; using this approach allowed at least one characteristic frequency and minimum power density level of EHF electromagnetic radiation at which consistent positive sensor reactions could be observed.
Step two involves irradiating BAPs from the first subset with electromagnetic radiation at their characteristic frequency as determined in Step 1, with each seance alternated to reduce power density to within practical quantum limit and ensure no negative sensor reaction occurs.
A BAP from the second subset is selected based on its potential to produce maximal pain responses to irritation, and their characteristic frequencies determined. Once positive sensor reactions in an organ area have subsided, treatment is completed.
As a result of using this new approach, two patients suffering from motor weakness in their upper extremities after whiplash injury experienced increases in grasping force, while ten with hemiparesis caused by cerebrovascular diseases showed improvements in coordination, selectivity and decreases of spasticity. On average, after seven sessions of microwave resonance therapy the patient experiences significant improvements with side effects being minimal or nonexistent; furthermore treatment can continue on an “as needed basis” at home for weeks post treatment start up.
What are the Benefits of Microwave Resonance Therapy?
Clinical trials conducted using MRT demonstrated increases in grasping force among those suffering whiplash injuries, and improvements in coordination and selectivity of movements among hemiparesis patients. This indicates its profound effect on neuromuscular function as well as an excellent noninvasive therapy option to restore the function of the meridians system.
Mechanistically, NMRT/MBST engages a broader network of nociceptive and metaplastic pathways than near-infrared PBMT/NILT does and has demonstrated similar biological effects for treating various conditions affecting muscle and bones (OA, spinal stenosis and osteoporosis). Furthermore, this modality offers greater anatomically deep structures exposure due to magnetic and low frequency radio frequency components not being meaningfully attenuated by biological tissues at therapeutic settings.
Depth-independent penetration characteristics open the possibility that NMRT/MBST could modulate myofascial dysfunction in regions beyond the range of optical wavelengths, offering a novel method to promote self-healing and facilitate optimal cell physiology. Such mechanistic convergence necessitates developing an integrated theoretical model addressing intracellular systems using distinct, yet complementary mechanisms.
