Treatment of the joints of foil – one of the alternative methods, which, according to the reviews of the patients, a positive result and helps the painful symptoms of diseases of the musculoskeletal System.
Rolls with foil food many will apply in the kitchen, and mistresses in the preparation of the food. As of this culinary accessories can help in diseases of the musculoskeletal system and you can use it for medical purposes? It turns out that the film has a number of unique characteristics, due to the positive effect on the condition of the sick joints.
Properties of the film
The foil is very thin sheet metal (aluminum, steel, silver, Gold ). In fact, this is a metal "paper", very supple and flexible, any shape and use for packaging or packaging of products. In the food and pharmaceutical industry, aluminium foil, which perfectly reflects the infrared or heat radiation. This feature is the application of the food film is ensured in the preparation of food in the oven and in the storage of products.
Good to know
The high reflectivity of the foil found application in medicine, namely in physio-therapeutic treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system. The methodology of the treatment with heat is the use of appliques or the film winding, whereby the heat dissipation and provide deep heat. This property of the material is often used to prevent frostbite.
But as a normal food metal sheet coated can help in diseases of the joints? There is a theory that the therapeutic effect of the foil due to the ability to reflect biotoki from the energy meridians of our body. In the case of any injury, acupressure points signals emit, which are perceived by us as pain.
The film does this biotoki to the same point, responsible for the energy potential of the body of the patient. This effect causes the phenomenon of bio-resonance, positive influence on the cell structures and regenerating the integrity of the energy field, disturbed disease.
Due to the protection biotokov and strengthening the cooperation of the Matrix with the cells of the Epidermis, an improvement in the Status of the affected joints. The pain syndrome disappears, reduces the severity of the inflammation, reduces swelling in the affected area, the mobility of the articular cartilage of the joints. Due to the reduction in the heat release processes of blood circulation and limfootoka enabled, the normal diet of the cartilage and muscle tissue, speeds up the metabolism, promote the recovery of the functions of the joint.
The treatment of the film stimulates regenerative and adaptive processes, activates the immune system, strengthens the body's defenses, which allows him to cope with with a pathological process and speed recovery.

Procedure with the wrap, overprint compresses, applications from the foil have a number of contraindications that must be taken into account. Including:
- the infectious process and purulent complications developing in the joint cavity – in this case, the heat will only increase the pain, accelerate the development of inflammation and will contribute to the penetration of pus in the surrounding tissue;

- tumorous processes;
- severe pathology of cardiovascular system;
- Skin damage in the area of intended effects (wounds, Erosion, wear and tear);
- allergic reactions when in contact with the aluminum foil;
- the presence of the implanted metal implants or stimulants – in case of contact with the foil, the risk of rejection is increased;

- the film must have surface of the skin, making it shiny (glossy), since the Matte side, not blocking heat transmission;
- when in the compress cloth made of gauze, is used medicinal impregnated solution, between it and the layer of the film to an adhesive tape for the laying of the foil must necessarily be, without the corrosion of the metal surface.
Time limitation of the procedure in connection with the fact that metallized sheet, apart from the fact that it is not to skip heat radiation, and prevents the penetration of oxygen and the removal of the poto-fat-precipitates. As a result of the under the Bandage of the greenhouse effect, which irritates the skin and creates an environment ideal for the proliferation of pathogenic microorganisms.
Treatment of the joints of the foil on the hands and feet
Foil in the case of pain in the joints is in the Form of packs of problematic Zone. Thin metal sheet metallic good can take any Form, so that the strips of foil are wrapped around the patient of the fingers or of the wrist, and from the top with adhesive tape.
