Study Details

Brief summary:

A medical device for magnetic therapy for spinal cord injuries (SCI) will be disclosed. The apparatus comprises a combination of several magnets enclosed in a supportive cover. The magnets are placed in a proper position and their polarity can be changed at any time without any difficulty.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Spinal Magnetic Stimulation

Spinal Magnetic Stimulation (SMS) is a relatively new way to use magnetism to affect the spinal cord. It is non-invasive, meaning that the procedure does not require any type of surgery; rather, it is conducted by transmitting magnetic pulses through the Spinal Cord by pressing a machine against the back.
