Magnetotron (Circa 1974)

Sometime ago I was reading a letter from a satisfied Curatron customer who had upgraded from an older technology PEMF machine called the Magnetotron. I was amazed to find out that this device may still be in production. There are and have been several machines over the years that require the user to sit inside a coil rather than on a simple flat pad or mattress. These arcane devices are difficult to use and tend to generate weak magnic fields.

Simple Coil Field Lines

The patient needs to be inside the cylinder, which is often a cumbersome process, especially for elderly people.  The body cylinder was developed decades ago and was the only solution to generate sufficient magnetic field energy in order to be effective since the electronics available during the 80’s were unable to drive sufficient energy into surface coils. These types of cylinders have become obsolete and are still sold only in combination with obsolete PEMFT devices. “ You can read more at http://www.pemft.com/PEMF-coils.

The older coil system such as that used by the Magnetotron coil generate localized fields inside the coil itself. Full body coverage without moving the coil is impossible.

Heavier folks find the coils to be difficult to get into and they can make one feel a little clausterophobic. Even MRI systems today are moving to Open MRI to reduce the feeling of being closed in and allow their systems to fit those wider folks who simply just don’t fit in the older MRI tunnels.

Modern Flat Coil Technology (Circa 2009) - Imagine up to 400 Gauss in a 20" x 28" pad.

The Curatron is also available with high energy pad about 20″ x 28″ that delivers a 300 Gauss (400 Gauss in the PC model) induction level. This is unparalleled performance and is not available with any other system on the market today.

Can you believe that we’ve been selling the Curatron for nine years with only one customer return? An amazing record. Read on…

Way back in early 2000, I received an email out of the blue from Ben Philipson in Israel at Curatronic. The email was introducing the Curatron 2000 Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy machine. My technical background caused me to more than skeptical.

I’m not sure if I answered the first email or not but soon after came another email and a phone call from this very persistent character who believed in his product and after a couple of calls and some prudent research I decided that perhaps that PEMF was not snake oil and perhaps it would help some people.

Ben convinced me to try selling the Curatron 2000 and an early version of the www.curatron.com website was born. Our first sale was to the father of an Olympic Silver Medalist working out in Colorado on July 09, 2000. The next was a month later to a gentleman in Arizona.

I didn’t know it then but Ben’s comapany was actually younger than Amjo. Amjo opened its doors in May of 1998, roughly 18 months before the formation of Curatronic in Israel.

Ben and I over the last nine years have become fast friends that trust each other implicitly. Ben, without a doubt is my best friend or perhaps Amjo’s best friend.

One very surprising statistic is that we have had had only one customer return in all the years we’ve been selling the Curatron.  That fact alone speaks volumes about the quality of the product and the gains our clients receive from using the device.
