What is PEMF Therapy?
PEMF is an FDA approved therapeutic technology which is non-invasive, non- pharmaceutical and an all-natural effective treatment for a variety of conditions because it promotes and maintains general cellular health and function. PEMF therapy devices use a computer/control unit to administer precise natural pulsating magnetic fields to the body (with specific frequencies and intensities) through various applicators such as a full body mat, localized pad applicators and rings to treat specific point on the body. It is fast and easy to use for pain management and recovery from sports injuries, lower back pain, muscle aches and pains, headaches, nervous tension and stress, improving the immune system, regulating high blood pressure and degenerative conditions related to aging.
How Does PEMF Therapy Heal the Body?
We can think of PEMF as a battery charger for our cells. The cell voltage in a healthy adults body is typically -20 to -25 millivolts. When our voltage drops below that level, chronic sickness and disease sets, our cells become dysfunctional and are unable to heal. By inducing an electrical magnetic current into damaged, low charged cells, PEMF therapy increases the voltage within the body to -50 mV, which is when cellular repair takes place. This in turn slows or stops the release of pain and inflammatory mediators, increases blood flow of the cells, and re-establishes normal cell regeneration. With the reproduction of new, younger cells, pain decreases, energy increases, and faster healing occurs.
Is PEMF Therapy New?
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) is FDA approved and commonly known to be used as a reparative technique in the field of orthopedics for the treatment of non-union fractures, failed fusions and depression. With over 40 years of clinical studies, researchers suggest that the pulsed signal in PEMF activates the body’s chemistry to heal more rapidly. You may have never heard of PEMF therapy, but it has been around since the days of Nikola Tesla who was the first modern individual to be recognized for manipulating electromagnetic fields for health purposes. PEMF Therapy had its first FDA approval back in 1979 but has been popularized in more recent years following NASA’s use in restoring bone and muscle to returning astronauts.
What should I experience during a PEMF Session?
You will not experience any pain during a PEMF session, but there is a distinctive pulsing sensation that one feels during their session. There are numerous types of therapeutic and intensity settings on the device, allowing the individual to increase or decrease its effects. Thus, a person can experience many different sensations. One of the benefits of our EZY System PEMF machine is that you are in control of your own treatment. Your technician will set the Pulse Per Second setting, but you will have access to control the intensity. You know better than anyone what “feels right” in your body and we want to insure you never experience any discomfort during any PEMF sessions.
Who can use PEMF Therapy?
Everyone can use PEMF therapy from the very young to the elderly, from sedentary individuals to those who exercise daily. Essentially, anyone at any age group, at any level of wellness or fitness, including both humans and animals (of all species), can use this technology.
Who should not use PEMF Therapy?
Those with pacemakers and those who are pregnant in 4th Trimester or at risk for epileptic seizures should not use PEMF therapy.
How often can I use PEMF Therapy?
Since it is non-invasive and non-pharmacological treatment, PEMF therapy is a safe, effective, and easy to use treatment modality. Using PEMF according to a suggested schedule will only benefit you as it mobilizes and empowers your body’s natural healing resources.
