Magnetotherapy at ARCADA NeuroMedical Center uses low-frequency pulsed magnetic fields to stimulate tissue healing, reduce pain, and support regeneration — a non-contact electrotherapeutic modality with a history of clinical use spanning several decades in European rehabilitation medicine. The therapy works by inducing weak electrical currents in biological tissue without physical contact, activating cellular repair mechanisms through magnetic induction. At ARCADA's Centre for Physical Therapies, magnetotherapy is delivered with professional consultation by a certified magnetotherapist, distinguishing it from consumer-grade home devices. Effects include: analgesia (pain reduction), myorelaxation, anti-oedema action, vasodilation of capillary networks, detoxification support, and tissue regeneration stimulation.
About this treatment
Magnetotherapy at ARCADA applies low-frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) in a clinically controlled setting, using professional-grade equipment operated by a qualified magnetotherapist. Unlike consumer home devices, ARCADA's clinical system delivers calibrated field intensities and frequencies validated for specific therapeutic targets — with pre-treatment consultation to determine the optimal parameters for each patient's condition.
The physical mechanism of action: the pulsed magnetic field induces a low-level electrical current in biological tissue (Faraday's law). This current alters ion channel conductance in cell membranes, affects ion transport across the membrane, and ultimately modulates the bioelectric environment of the targeted tissue. At the cellular level, this translates to: accelerated ATP (cellular energy) synthesis, enhanced calcium channel regulation, improved…
At ARCADA, magnetotherapy is integrated into both the neurorehabilitation programme and the standalone physical therapy offering. For neurorehabilitation patients, it supports the recovery of motor pathways and tissue repair alongside TheraSuit and kinesiotherapy. For self-paying visitors, it is accessible as a standalone treatment for musculoskeletal and pain management goals.

What clients say
"Davídek came to ARCADA with a diagnosis of cerebral palsy. After intensive neurorehabilitation, his motor development improved in ways his family had not expected — ARCADA's team worked with him individually every day of the 14-day block. (Patient story from arcada-center.com)"
"Kamilka's story shows what intensive therapy can achieve: consistent progress across multiple programme blocks, with the ARCA cage and TheraSuit method making the difference for her movement control. (Patient story from arcada-center.com)"
