SIS therapy (super-inductive magnetic field)

A high-intensity electromagnetic field reaching deep into tissue — non-invasive, and widely used inside combined programmes.

SIS therapy is a modern physiotherapy method worked through a super-inductive magnetic field. The high-intensity electromagnetic field reaches deep into tissue, which is why the method is widely used for pain syndromes and for restoring movement. The procedure is non-invasive: no needles, no incision, no recovery period.

How a SIS therapy session runs

The guest sits or lies comfortably and the head of the device is brought over the area being treated. There is no need to undress, as the magnetic field passes through fabric. During the session you feel the muscles contracting rhythmically — that is the procedure working normally. The intensity of the field is raised in steps, following the physician's prescription and the guest's tolerance.

What SIS therapy helps with

The magnetic field stimulates nerve and muscle fibres while increasing circulation in the tissue. Together these two effects are what produce results in spinal and joint complaints:

The main effects of the magnetic field

  • Reduction of the pain syndrome
  • Release of muscle spasm
  • A greater range of movement in the joints
  • Support for peripheral nerve recovery
  • Faster rehabilitation after injury or surgery
  • Support for healing in tendon and muscle injuries

Who it is not prescribed for: contraindications

SIS therapy is not used with a pacemaker, metal implants, in pregnancy and in a number of other situations — all of which are clarified at the examination on arrival. The procedure is not part of naftalan treatment as such, but it works well in the same course: the bath softens the tissue while SIS therapy works separately on pain and restricted movement.

SIS therapy in Naftalan — Sun City Hotel & Spa

The unit is installed in the treatment wing — inside the hotel's own building. The session is short and calls for no rest afterwards, so it can be placed after the morning bath or in the afternoon physiotherapy block.

When SIS therapy (super-inductive magnetic field) is prescribed

  • Osteochondrosis and spinal conditions
  • Arthritis, arthrosis and other joint problems
  • Muscle spasm and pain syndromes
  • Neuralgia and peripheral nerve conditions
  • Rehabilitation after injury or surgery
  • Muscle and tendon injuries

Frequently asked questions

No — the magnetic field passes through fabric, so there is no need to undress. The guest sits or lies comfortably and the head of the device is brought over the area being treated. The procedure is non-invasive: no needles, no incision, no recovery period.

You feel the muscles contracting rhythmically — that is the procedure working normally, not pain. The intensity of the field is raised in steps, following the prescription and your own tolerance. If anything feels uncomfortable it is enough to say so.

No, these are contraindications. A pacemaker, metal implants and pregnancy all rule SIS therapy out — this must be established at the examination on arrival. In that case the physiotherapy department's non-magnetic methods are chosen instead.

Osteochondrosis and spinal conditions, arthritis and arthrosis, muscle spasm and pain syndromes, neuralgia and peripheral nerve conditions are the main indications. It is also used in rehabilitation after injury or surgery and in muscle and tendon injuries.

Yes, and it is a much-used pairing: the bath softens the tissue while SIS therapy works separately on pain and restricted movement. The session is short and calls for no rest afterwards, so it can be placed after the morning bath or in the afternoon physiotherapy block.

Naming a figure would not be right — it depends on the kind of complaint and how long it has lasted. SIS therapy works as a course, and the number of sessions is set after the examination. The physician follows your condition throughout and adjusts the timetable where needed.
