Pulsed Electromagnetic Field

How should I prepare for my treatment?

Dress comfortably.
Contraindications: Individuals with pacemakers, or cochlear implants, people that are pregnant, people with bleeding conditions, and epileptics should avoid using this therapy.

What does the treatment consist of?

All you do is sit or lie comfortably on a mat or on/near a local applicator. No action or physical movement is required. There is no such thing as too much PEMF, so how often you need treatment will depend on the desired health outcomes. Maximum effects last 14-16 hours, with benefits ongoing even after four days. More frequent use leads to extended pain-free intervals. More severe health issues will benefit from longer and/or more frequent use of PEMF treatments.

Since everyone is unique, each will experience something different. The device has numerous therapeutic and intensity settings, allowing individuals to increase or decrease the effects. Frequently people state they feel a tingling in an area of an old injury, while others just feel completely relaxed. The process is pain-free, and you do not have to undress for the treatment.

How does it work?

Developed by NASA, PEMF systems produce electromagnetic energy at lower frequencies than most household items, including your microwave, WiFi, and cellphone. Human cells and tissues require energy flow in the form of magnetic fields. Magnetic field therapy works in the cell to support the functioning of regulating mechanisms while enhancing the self-healing capacity, which has three main effects on the tissues: increased blood circulation, increased oxygen extraction, and enhanced metabolism. More specifically, working at the microvascular level, the small blood vessels called capillaries increase oxygen utilization by 30%, increase nutrient bioavailability by 30%, and increase the disposal of metabolic wastes and toxins by 30%.
