Veterinary Magnetotherapy - Physiotherapy in cats and dogs

Learn how magnetotherapy equipment works in veterinary physiotherapy for cats and dogs, including magnetic poles and application methods described in the lecture caption.

Magnetic therapy in veterinary surgery reduces inflammation and can be used after orthopedic procedures, with materials that are surgical steel and do not transmit heat to look at bone loss.

Explore contraindications of magnetotherapy in cats and dogs for safe veterinary practice. Identify guidelines to apply magnetotherapy while avoiding risks in feline and canine patients.

Explore veterinary magnetotherapy equipment, including coils and fabric covers, designed to tie to the animal with two ties on each side, placing coils to create a magnetic field.

Demonstrates manual and automatic magnetotherapy equipment for veterinary use, showing how to set frequency, modulation, time, power, and magnetic flux for acute and chronic treatments.

Explore how frequency in hertz and session duration optimize veterinary magnetotherapy for cats and dogs.

Learn how to use magnetotherapy equipment and synthesize the first modules, exploring local magnetic fields and frequency modulations for veterinary physiotherapy in cats and dogs.

position the coil around the quadriceps or forelimb, secure it firmly, and avoid placing coils on the neck or testicles; for other areas, place over the shoulder.

Select magnetotherapy frequencies and application times, using low and high frequencies for anti-inflammatory and regenerative cellular effects, tailoring duration to pathology, with 30–40 minute sessions and 15 minutes for transcranial.

This lecture covers shoulder treatment in veterinary magnetotherapy, showing strap placement around the neck and under the rib cage to cover the shoulder area.

Explore hip treatment in veterinary magnetotherapy for cats and dogs, focusing on positioning and practical adjustments described during the session to help effect a therapeutic change.

Place the cables and straps for forelimbs, hind limbs, and the spine with correct orientation, keeping straps in front and cables toward the back, and replace any wrong placements.

Apply leg treatment techniques of veterinary magnetotherapy for cats and dogs by front-to-back wrapping of magnet strips, enveloping the limb, and redirecting magnetic energy to another area.

Magnets show results immediately, depending on the patient’s pathology. See changes by the end of magnetization, and observe effects within 24 hours.

Explore whether magnetic therapy equipment used for humans can be applied to animals, noting Argentina-based modifications and adjustments to frequencies and intensities requested by veterinary services.

Assess whether human magnetotherapy equipment can be used in Argentina veterinary practice and a trust with four years of experience requests modifications to frequencies and intensities for cats and dogs.

Learn how magnet therapy integrates with other physiotherapy modalities, using magnets for about 30 minutes per session and avoiding interference by sequencing equipment and medications.
