BMS Matrix Therapy - Regeneration through the rhythm of muscles

Efficacy independently proven by TÜV-Süd

The BMS Matrix Therapy has been independently proven to work by non other than TÜV-Süd

The aim of the study conducted by Dr. Bernhard Dickreiter ( Orthopedic Joint Clinic Gundelfingen ) and the occupational physician Dr. med. Olaf Otto ( Präventic GmbH ) was to have presented a study as the first methodologically proven proof of the effectiveness of matrix therapy.
The aim of this therapy study, which was commissioned by BKK Gesundheit in 2009/2010 at TÜV SÜD Life Service, was to create a database for the experience gained to date with regard to efficacy.
The focus was also on the criteria of side effects, possible effects on the inability to work and the sustainability of the matrix therapy.

Study conclusion:

It was concluded in November 2011 that the matrix therapy study conducted by TÜV-Süd under the direction of Dr Olaf Otto and Dr Bernhard Dickreiter, reported on the long-term effects of matrix therapy that was applied to a collective of 470 chronic pain patients.

Over 70% of these patients experienced a reduction in pain to less than 50% of baseline levels after the fifth treatment.

In most patients, this effect was sustainable. Even after one year, most patients were able to do without any chemical painkillers. The efficacy and cost-effectiveness of matrix therapy could thus be demonstrated in a collective of chronic pain patients.

Headquartered in Munich, Germany and founded in 1866, TÜV SÜD is one of the world’s leading technical service organisations.

Basically how Biomechanical Stimulation (BMS) and the Matrix Therapy effect works

The scientifically proven therapeutic effects of Biomechanical stimulation and Matrix Therapy have long been known about and are based on over 50 years of scientific research and discoveries that the body’s musculoskeletal system has a characteristic vibratory behavior all of its own.

We all understand that the primary source of circulation within our body is the heart muscle which deals with the overall circulation of blood products, even down to the very smallest capillaries, but when you think about this, the action of the heart muscle must obviously in some way be supplemented by some other additional bodily mechanisms in order to ensure the adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients are delivered to the cells and tissues as well as the removal of the metabolic waste products.

This fundamentally important additional bodily mechanism has been scientifically proven to occur at the very smallest cellular level and is provided by microscopically small rhythmical vibrations generated from within the musculoskeletal system, which propagate throughout virtually all living tissues and cells within the body.

These micro-vibrations generate a localised “pressure & suction” effect within the region immediately surrounding the cells “the extracellular matrix space” assisting the transport of all substances to and from the cells and thereby playing the essential role in the logistics and regulation of the body at this very important cellular level.

This important vibratory action within the body’s musculoskeletal system is thereby a critical precondition for sufficient oxygen and micronutrients to reach all of the body’s living cells.

When any disturbances occur within this normal function, via injury, strain, stress, over work, age etc. this can lead to a slowing down or blockage of this critical cellular logistical process, in turn leading to energy deficiency (due to an insufficient oxygen & nutrient supply) The localised cellular metabolism environment then becomes more acidic and the cells can then no longer function properly, which in turn then causes the systematic pain symptoms to occur and in the longer term can cause changes and damage to the muscles, bones, nerves and vascular tissues.

Extrazell BMS Matrix Therapy is a non invasive, 100% natural and safe externally applied therapy which reactivates and repairs these cells and their environment — i.e. the extracellular matrix — using the specially developed Extrazell BMS therapy device.

The act of applying these specifically tuned natural vibrations to the body creates an asymmetrical pressure wave effect within these treated tissues, which induces and promotes the naturally occurring “pressure & suction” effect whilst consequently and beneficently stimulating the nerve receptors.

The therapist is in effect using the Extrazell BMS device to externally generate these microscopically small, rhythmical micro stretching actions within the muscle fibres and tissues, which mimics the body’s naturally occurring micro-vibrations from within the muscle cells and effectively kick starts the stalled rhythmic process at the cellular level.

The normal micro-vibrational activity within these tissues and cells is thereby stimulated and restored via this process and within a very short time this leads to a return to a normalisation of the metabolic processes within the treated area and the body can heal itself naturally and more rapidly.

Back pain

What is pain?

Conventional beliefs and medical science tell us that:

We all perceive and feel pain differently. We all know that Pain is an uncomfortable feeling or sensation that tells you something may be wrong. It can described as being steady, throbbing, stabbing, aching, pinching, etc. Sometimes, it’s just an irritation, like a mild headache.

The most common causes of muscle pain are tension, stress, overuse and minor injuries. Systemic muscle pain — pain throughout your whole body — is more often the result of an infection, an illness or a side effect of a medication but can be due to a condition known as Fibromyalgia.

What is the function of pain? Pain forms part of an evolutionary and behavioural role. It is part of the body’s defense system, producing a reflexive retraction from the painful stimulus, and help’s protect the affected body part while it heals, and avoid that harmful situation occurring in the future.

Here at BMS Matrix we see pain as the indication that the cells in your body tissues are in desperate need of oxygen!

As damage has occurred on a cellular level due to swelling, inflammation, stiffness, tightness, spasticity after injury, surgery or over-exertion, your cells do not get enough space to oscillate freely. This severely restricts the flow of fresh oxygen from the red blood cells to the site of congestion/injury.

The Mitochondria, also called the power houses of the cell, do not get enough oxygen to produce energy and this leads to further tissue and muscle contraction, resulting in restriction of movement and pain.

Unfortunately, if the cells starving for oxygen do not receive help on time, they wither and eventually die. Then further complications often set in, as the tissues struggle to survive without oxygen.

BMS Matrix Therapy provides the required oscillations between the physiological frequencies of 8 to 12Hz. This is the frequency that synchronizes with the body’s Extra Cellular Matrix to re-establish the disturbed rhythm at the cellular level. The therapy increases the oxygen supply to the cells by improving the microcirculation and thereby restoring the energy production.

The immediate effect can be seen as relaxation of the inflamed tissue, muscle, and fascia. This relaxation is long-lasting and is maintained by the metabolic process at the cellular level which is then regulated and the oxygen supply to cells is improved.

Patients can often experience the immediate reduction of pain during a treatment session with BMS Matrix Therapy. Once the pain is reduced and the soft tissues are relaxed, wellbeing can then be maintained by further infrequent treatments and routine gentle exercise.

Post workout recovery

The painful truth about Ice Baths!

Over the past 20 years, ice baths have been a promoted post-workout recovery for elite athletes. The practice of submerging your body in cold (15 degrees or less) or near freezing water was believed to tackle exercise-induced muscle inflammation namely delayed‐onset muscle soreness (DOMS).

There have been many scientific studies over the years into this practice and so far none have concluded any significant benefits, they have actually concluded that they may cause greater post workout pain and discomfort.

This was clearly set out in a study over 10 years ago and published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine in 2007 where they concluded that:

“The protocol of ice‐water immersion used in this study was ineffectual in minimising markers of DOMS in untrained individuals. This study challenges the wide use of this intervention as a recovery strategy by athletes.”

And more recently in 2016 research conducted by the Queensland University of Technology found that ice baths have barely any effect on post-muscle exercise inflammation.

The study, published in the Journal of Physiology, concluded that the painful post-workout practice is no more effective than the age-old method of low-intensity ‘cooling down’ and indicate they do not reduce cellular stress in muscle tissue after a bout of exercise.

The pseudoscience behind the idea of ice baths is based on the fact that immersion in near-freezing water reduces muscle temperature and blood flow. As a result, it was thought that the practice of voluntary immersion would repair broken down muscles by reducing inflammation, actually the opposite is the case and far more damage can occur through micro tears in the muscle fibres and shocking the actual cells within.

The lead researcher of the study, Dr Jonathan Peake, said “Considering the discomfort associated with ice baths, athletes may be better off doing a light warm down after their training sessions or competitive events.”

“Athletes across various sports will need to re-think their strategies to minimise inflammation in the muscle.”

The best and scientifically proven strategy we know of here at BMS Matrix, which is also endorsed and proven by many leading professional athletes in the German speaking world over the last 20 years, is the one of BMS Matrix therapy followed by wIRA heating, there is nothing proven to be better at repairing muscle damage or stress at the cellular level after any physical exercise or workout.

This is now being scientifically backed by leading research at Harvard where Mechanical stimulation has been shown to repair muscle – Wyss and SEAS teams have found new strength in regenerative medicine through BMS.

Equip yourself for the future, Bio-Mechanical Stimulation & Extracellular Matrix therapy is the therapy of the 21st Century.

Back pain

Keeping it simple is often for the best

This very interesting recent Guardian article regarding back pain taken from ‘3 separate Lancet medical journal papers‘ highlights the issues which surround treating it and claims the majority of surgical and drug based interventions often do more harm than good.

Here at BMS Matrix we know and understand that a holistic approach is needed to understand the underlying causes of back pain and how to alleviate them.

Our therapy is a safe, natural, non-invasive and scientifically proven alternative that can really help treat back pain and many other conditions at the cellular level to help your body repair itself successfully.
