1. A method for recovering the permeability of cell walls of muscles under the skin, comprising the steps of:
applying laminar electrodes to the skin;
generating electric current waves in a radio frequency circuit having an electronic switch and a piloting circuit;
supplying a voltage from a rectifier circuit to the radiofrequency circuit;
feeding the voltage from the pilot to the switch of the radiofrequency circuit;
producing in said electric current waves of the radiofrequency circuit a distorted sinusoidal shape and a relatively high frequency of about 4 MHz including harmonics of at least the second and third order;
connecting the distorted electric current waves to the electrodes;
maintaining the distorted electric current waves on the electrodes for a selected time interval and at a power level of about 40-50 W
connecting the one or more electrodes to the electronic device;
circulating in a broadband resonant circuit, said output wave at the frequency of a pure sinusoidal wave of said distorted electric current output wave.
