Abstract

The paper contains a history of the first effective experiments in magnetic stimulations of human tissues, which started in the second half of XIX century due to two scientists. They were  Jacques-Arsene d’Arsonval and  Silvanus P. Thompson, both of them born in 1851. The experiments which were carried out by these pioneers are of great importance for nowadays activity in medical applications of electromagnetic field.
