A double blind assessment of pulsed magnetic short waves therapy has been carried out in neck pain, lowback pain, osteoarthritis of the knee and tendinitis. One hundred and forty-one patients were evaluated after 10 applications. Results are statistically significant for neck pain when compared to placebo. Tendinitis are not improved. Low-back pain and osteoarthritis need further investigation.
