PMS: Innovative Technology For Overcoming Office Syndrome

     Office Syndrome refers to a group of symptoms commonly found among office workers. It arises from maintaining the same posture for extended periods, leading to muscle injuries in various areas such as the temples, neck, shoulder blades, and shoulders. Symptoms may include muscle stiffness, tenderness upon pressure, dizziness, or numbness.

Initial Treatment for Office Syndrome

Office Syndrome can result from several factors, including insufficient rest, prolonged repetitive postures, and working in ergonomically unsuitable environments. Therefore, treatment typically involves a combination of approaches, such as:

• Avoiding prolonged maintenance of the same posture and ensuring proper ergonomic alignment while working
• Behavioral adjustments
• Getting adequate rest
• Regular exercise
• Use of analgesic medications
• Physical therapy

PMS: Alternative Treatment For Office Syndrome

     If comprehensive treatment fails to alleviate symptoms, an emerging option is Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation (PMS). This technology uses electromagnetic waves to stimulate nerves and muscles in the affected areas, helping to relieve symptoms associated with Office Syndrome.

Other Conditions Suitable For PMS

Electromagnetic stimulation technology also proves beneficial for chronic pain conditions such as:

• Degenerative spine disease with nerve compression
• Herniated intervertebral discs
• Fibromyalgia (a condition characterized by widespread unexplained pain)
• Chronic muscle tension and stiffness syndromes

If these conditions are not severe enough to warrant surgery and have not responded to medication or physical therapy, PMS offers an effective alternative treatment.

Severity of Chronic Pain From Office Syndrome

     Chronic pain persisting for more than three months should not be self-treated with over-the-counter medication or massages alone. It is advisable to consult a physician to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment. Chronic pain may sometimes be linked to other health issues, such as thyroid disorders, anemia, vitamin D deficiency, or autoimmune diseases.

PMS Technology

PMS technology can treat a variety of symptoms associated with Office Syndrome, including:

• Degenerative spine disease with nerve compression
• Disc degeneration
• Carpal tunnel syndrome (compression of nerves at the wrist)
• Chronic muscle stiffness
• Neuromuscular disorders causing muscle weakness

Treatment with PMS has been found to effectively reduce pain after each session, with ongoing sessions scheduled according to the severity of the condition.

The Advantage of PMS Technology

In addition to pain relief, PMS can help alleviate muscle weakness and numbness in conditions such as:

• Facial muscle weakness (e.g., facial palsy)
• Neurological disorders causing limb weakness
• Stroke recovery
• Nerve compression syndromes
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Peripheral neuropathy

Precautions for PMS Treatment

    PMS therapy is contraindicated in patients with a history of seizures, those with implanted metallic rings, and those with electronic implants such as pacemakers or cochlear implants.
