A treatment method and device for promoting a localized increase in the flow of blood through a blood vessel in an area of the body, the method including the steps of: (a) providing a system including: (i) at least a first electrode (80a, 80b) operatively contacting a first portion of body tissue; (ii) at least a second electrode (82a, 82b) operatively contacting a second portion of body tissue; and (iii) a signal generator (87, 85), operatively connected to the first electrode and the second electrode, for providing a plurality of electrical impulses to the electrodes; (b) applying the electrical impulses so as to subject the muscular tissue to at least one voltage differential, thereby inducing a repeated, contracting, directional movement of muscular tissue associated with the blood vessel, so as to produce a localized increase in the flow of blood through the blood vessel.

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de traitement favorisant un accroissement localisé du débit sanguin dans un vaisseau sanguin d'une partie du corps. Le procédé consiste (a) produire un système comprenant (i) au moins une première électrode fonctionnellement en contact avec une première partie du tissu corporel; (ii) au moins une seconde électrode fonctionnellement en contact avec une seconde partie du tissu corporel et (iii) un générateur de signaux fonctionnellement en connexion avec les première et seconde électrodes pour fournir aux électrodes une pluralité d'impulsions électriques; (b) à appliquer les impulsions électriques de façon à soumettre le tissu musculaire à au moins un différentiel de tension, ce qui induit contractions directionnelles répétées du tissu musculaire associé au vaisseau sanguin, un accroissement localisé du débit sanguin se produisant alors dans le vaisseau sanguin.
