METHOD FOR APPLYING AIR ION THERAPY Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A61N1/44 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves applying contact napkin to a skin region. The napkin is manufactured from metal gauze or metal strips connected to each other on flexible carrier and connected to high-voltage power supply with low-voltage cable. Porous dielectric fabric inlay is placed on the skin region in treatment zone. One or two kinds of procedures are given in turn during a medical session. Medical ionization with air ions is carried out with air ion therapy device being used. The device casing having n thin corona-producing electrodes is directed at distance of 3-10 cm and moved over treatment zone on skin covered in advance with curative layer like medical ointment or napkin impregnated with drugs. Then, thin multilayered porous dielectric fabric inlay is placed from above. Air ion puncture procedure is carried out with a device having removable casing with one corona-producing electrode. The casing is directed to biologically active points in zone under treatment on skin from distance of 3-7 cm. The skin region covered in advance with solid porous single-layered dielectric fabric layer.

EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of treatment; prolonged drug action; reduced drug consumption.
