A method and system of placement of a magnetic field flux field generator in fitment which creates a specific effect of three dimensional field gradient to alter the charge distribution on living membranes in order to establish normal physiological functioning of damaged tissue.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
A method of arranging a plurality of therapeutic electromagnetic treatment devices in a fitment, comprising the following steps: a) providing a plurality of the therapeutic electromagnetic treatment devices, each device further comprising a plurality of electromagnetic bodies each body comprising a plurality of magnetic poles substantially in a single plane, at least one of the magnetic poles having secured a ferroconductor flux return ring thereto for increasing the strength and gradient without altering the centered charge and symmetry of the three dimensional radiant magnetic flux field; b) orienting the magnetic bodies to define four vertices of a quadrilateral shape, and each having magnetic poles exerting magnetic force on the other plurality of magnetic poles; c) providing a fitment for accommodating the electromagnetic treatment device; and d) placing the fitment containing the treatment device on a part of the human body so that a flux field created by the plurality of electromagnetic bodies interacts with damaged tissue to re-establish normal physiological functioning of the tissue.
2.
A device for interacting with the body of living organisms, comprising: a) an electromagnetic treatment device comprising a plurality of electromagnetic bodies, each body including a plurality of magnetic poles substantially in a single plane; b) the magnetic bodies being oriented to define four vertices of a quadrilateral shape and each of the magnetic poles exerting a magnetic force on other plurality of magnetic poles when the poles are electrically charged; c) a ferroconductor flux return ring secured to at least one of the poles for increasing the strength and gradient without altering a centered charge and symmetry of any three dimensional steep radiant magnetic flux field; d) a containment component for holding the magnetic poles of the magnetic bodies in the orientation; and e) a fitment accommodating a plurality of electromagnetic treatment devices, which when placed on a portion of the human body having damaged tissue, a flux field created by the electromagnetic devices interacts with the damaged tissue to re-establish normal physiological functioning of the tissue
