ABSTRACT:
An method for generating a therapeutic magnetic field to be applied to a biological subject is disclosed wherein biomagnetic fields are measured and component vector wave patterns are derived therefrom, and a therapeutic Normalizing Signal is derived from the harvested wave patterns. A therapeutic apparatus is provided which is operable to generate magnetic fields having a vector component wave pattern approximately equal to the Normalizing Signal. In a preferred embodiment, magnetic field measurements for a selected site are taken from Normal and Abnormal test subjects, and a Difference Wave is derived from the data. The Normalizing Signal can then be derived from the Difference Wave using predefined algorithms. The therapeutic apparatus has a coil which has known current/magnetic field characteristics so that source current can be calculated to generate a magnetic field which is a function of the Normalizing Signal.
