Claims
- 1. A method for modulating blood pressure comprising the steps of:
a. selecting from a storage area one or more waveforms representative of waveforms generated in the body and carried by neurons in the body; b. transmitting or conducting the selected waveforms to a treatment member in contact with the body; and c. broadcasting the selected waveforms from the treatment member to a blood pressure regulatory point in the body.
- 2. The method according to claim 1, in which step “a” further includes selecting said waveforms from a storage area in a computer.
- 3. The method according to claim 1, in which step “b” further comprises transmitting the selected waveforms remotely to the treatment member.
- 4. The method according to claim 1, in which step “b” further comprises seismic transmission of the selected waveforms.
- 5. The method according to claim 1, in which step “b” further comprises the treatment member implanted within the body.
- 6. An apparatus for modulating blood pressure, comprising:
a. a source of collected waveforms indicative of body organ functioning; b. a treatment member formed to be in direct contact with the body; c. means for transmitting one or more of the collected waveforms to the treatment member; and d. means for broadcasting the collected waveforms from the treatment member to a blood pressure regulatory point in the body to modulate blood pressure.
- 7. The apparatus according to claim 5, in which said transmitting means includes a digital to analog converter.
- 8. The apparatus according to claim 5, in which said source comprises a computer having collected waveforms stored in digital format.
- 9. The apparatus according to claim 7, in which said computer includes separate storage areas for collecting waveforms of different blood pressure functional categories.
- 10. The apparatus according to claim 5, in which the treatment member comprises an antenna for broadcasting blood pressure signals.
- 11. The apparatus according to claim 5, in which the treatment member comprises an electrode.
- 12. The method according to claim 5, in which the treatment member implanted within the body.
