Mechanism of Action of Local Deep Hyperthermia Therapy in Cancer:
 

1. Increased Sensitivity to Treatments: The targeted heating of tumor tissue increases its sensitivity to other cancer therapies, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the treatment.
    

2. Tumor-Destructive Effects: Precise heating initiates a chain reaction leading to damage and destruction of tumor cells without unnecessarily affecting healthy tissue.
    

3. Improved Blood Circulation: Local hyperthermia promotes blood circulation in the affected area, enhancing oxygen and nutrient supply while efficiently removing waste products.
    

4. Stimulation of the Immune System: The therapy contributes to immune system activation, strengthening the body's defense against cancer cells.

 

​

Biological Processes during Local Deep Hyperthermia:
 

1. Heat Shock Proteins (HSP70): Elevated temperatures generated by local deep hyperthermia lead to increased production of Heat Shock Proteins (HSP), especially HSP70. HSP70 serves as a specific protective protein, preserving cell integrity and promoting protein repair. Additionally, HSPs act as "danger signals," activating the immune system.
    

2. Immune System Activation: The release of HSPs signals the body that something is abnormal, stimulating the immune system to respond better to cancer cells. HSPs can also enhance antigen presentation, aiding in the recognition of cancer cells by the immune system.
    

3. Lactate Production and Internal Suffocation: Local deep hyperthermia results in increased lactate production. The heightened stress from hyperthermia causes cancer cells to release more lactate. An increase in lactate levels around cancer cells can lead to a more acidic environment, inducing a form of internal suffocation (acidosis) in cancer cells.

Advantages of Local Deep Hyperthermia Therapy in Cancer:
 

1. Precision Targeting: The therapy focuses specifically on the tumor, maximizing the impact on cancer cells while sparing surrounding healthy tissue.
    

2. Non-Invasive Treatment: By avoiding surgical interventions, local deep hyperthermia minimizes patient burden, allowing for faster recovery.
    

3. Synergistic Effectiveness: In combination with other cancer therapies such as radiation or chemotherapy, local deep hyperthermia enhances the overall effectiveness of the treatment.

The infusion therapies during hyperthermia treatment contribute to further strengthening the patients' immune systems. The administration of specific immune stimulants can intensify the immune response and improve the body's ability to respond to cancer cells. The combined application of Local Deep Hyperthermia and immune stimulation through infusion therapies thus creates a synergistic effect.

 

This holistic treatment aims not only to directly combat cancer cells but also to mobilize and strengthen the body's natural defense system, maximizing the overall effectiveness of the therapy. Local Deep Hyperthermia demonstrates impressive results not only in cancer therapy but also in sports injuries and musculoskeletal disorders, especially in issues related to the knee, hip, and shoulder joints.

​

Effect of Local Deep Hyperthermia in Sports Injuries and Joint Problems:

​

1. Anti-Inflammatory Effects: The targeted heating of affected tissues by local deep hyperthermia has anti-inflammatory effects. This is crucial in sports injuries and joint problems where inflammation often causes pain and restricted movement.
    

2. Pain Relief: The locally increased temperature promotes blood circulation, relaxes muscles, and provides pain relief. This is particularly beneficial for knee pain and other joint problems, reducing pain and improving mobility.
    

3. Accelerated Regeneration: Local deep hyperthermia supports the regeneration of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, which is crucial in sports injuries such as strains, sprains, or overuse damage.
    

4. Improvement of Joint Function: Targeted heat application enhances the flexibility and mobility of joints, especially the knee joint. This can have positive effects on various joint disorders, such as osteoarthritis or rheumatic conditions.

​

Local Deep Hyperthermia thus offers an effective and gentle therapy option for athletes and individuals with joint problems. Through targeted heating, inflammation is reduced, pain is alleviated, and regeneration is accelerated, leading to improved musculoskeletal health.
