Abstract:
1. A device for magnetic field therapy, comprising: a base with a first device generating an alternating first magnetic field, wherein the base comprises a couch surface for a patient, a first angled side part and a second angled side part, wherein the first angled side part and the second angled side part, each extend vertically from respective first opposed sides of the base; wherein the first angled side part includes a first coil and the second angled side part includes a second coil, each of the first and second coils comprising a central axis that extends perpendicular to the respective first and second angled side part; and a control device for powering the first and second coils generating a substantially static second magnetic field which extends substantially linearly from the first angled side part to the second angled side part; wherein the substantially static second magnetic field produced by said coils is perpendicular to the magnetic field produced by said first device generating the alternating first magnetic field, at least in portions thereof, and wherein the device for magnetic field therapy is open opposite to the base, and wherein the device for magnetic field therapy is open at second opposed sides of the base, the device opening upwardly such that a patient or animal to be treated can enter a treatment zone between the first angled side part and the second angled side part from above the base; wherein the couch surface extends beyond the base; and wherein said first angled side part and second angled side part each has a curved shape as seen in a front view and wherein said device for magnetic field therapy is approximately U-shaped.
