Summary

Magnetic Mitohormesis (MM) replicates the metabolic and regenerative effects of exercise using an equipment called the BIXEPS machine, which introduces magnetic fields to the thigh muscles in a non-invasive and painless manner. Since exercise improves the blood glucose control of patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), we believe that MM can provide the same benefits.

This single-arm pilot study investigates the effect of MM therapy on glycemic control in individuals with T2DM.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

DEVICE

Magnetic mitohormesis

The BIXEPS machine employs gentle pulsed magnetic signals specifically tuned to activate the natural "powerhouse" (mitochondria) within muscle. Brief 10-minute MM sessions with the device recreate similar biological and metabolic effects as exercise, but without physical stress or strain. It is intended to improve the strength and function of users, promoting overall fitness and well-being. Just like exercise, these effects accumulate with time. Subjects will receive 12 sessions of 10 minute treatments
