Detection and influencing of physiological and/or pathological states

摘要

A device for detecting and influencing the physiological and/or pathological state of the human or animal body, including a housing which has a first housing wall that, in turn, has an outer surface provided for placing against a body to be treated. A rotor is situated inside the housing and is rotationally driven about an axis that is essentially perpendicular to the first housing wall. First magnets are mounted on the rotor, and their magnetic fields are oriented in the same direction that is parallel to the rotation axis. At least one additional magnet is situated essentially coaxial to the rotation axis with a polarity of each being oriented in an opposite direction to the first magnets.
