Abstract
A therapeutic electromagnetic treatment device adapted to interact with bodies of living organisms, including a method of treating a living organism with the device, the device including a plurality of electromagnetic bodies comprising a plurality of magnetic poles substantially in a single plane; the magnetic bodies being oriented to define the four vertices of a quadrilateral shape, and each of the magnetic poles exerting a magnetic force on the other plurality of magnetic poles when the poles are electrically charged; a ferroconductor flux return ring secured to at least one of the poles turned away from the organism being treated; a ferromagnetic focusing ring containing a ferroconductor metal ring and an electromagnet of the same polarity as the pole attached to the focusing ring in proximity to the four poles of the quadrilateral shape; containment component for holding the magnetic poles of the magnetic bodies in the orientation; and power supply for magnetically energizing the electromagnetic bodies, the energized electromagnetic bodies, each generating a magnetic flub field, the four magnetic poles when energized together generate flux field with a sharp three dimensional gradient and comprises a flux generator head.
