NUS study: Brief weekly magnetic muscle therapy improves mobility and lean body mass in older adults

  • May 23, 2023

 

Great news for older adults experiencing a decline in functional mobility, muscle strength, and increased body fat! Associate Professor Alfredo Franco-Obregón, the Principal Investigator and co-founder of QuantumTX Pte Ltd, recently published a community study using their innovative BIXEPS machine.

In this study, jointly conducted by researchers from iHealthtech, QuantumTX, and the Healthy Longevity Translational Research Programme under the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, Professor Franco-Obregón and his research team have demonstrated the remarkable potential of magnetic fields in stimulating effective muscle recovery and improving mobility and body composition.

This research has far-reaching implications for older adults who face challenges related to functional mobility and muscle strength. The BIXEPS machine offers a promising solution to combat these issues and enhance the overall well-being of older individuals.

This technology has the potential to revolutionize the way we address age-related declines in physical functionality, providing older adults with an opportunity to regain their independence and improve their quality of life.
