Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF)

PEMF is a magnetic therapy used for the replenishment of electrons or electricity in the healing body.  During and injury or illness the body need to increase (in fact double) the electrical charge in the healing tissue in order for the body to repair itself.  Cell membranes carry a charge of -25 millivolts.  If the cells of muscle, cartilage, or ligament tissue become damaged or injured then the voltage can drop to -20 millivolts.  Health bodies raise and maintain voltage through exercise, eating healthy, and drinking clean spring water.  When this doesn't occur, our bodies and injuries get stuck in this non-healing cycle of chronic pain and inflammation.  PEMF is an external source of electrons for that can kick start the healing response internally.  Often, pain relief is felt right away and longer-term relief is achieved with regular treatments.  This has become an indispensable conservative therapy for patients seeking correction for stubborn injuries and ailments.

FDA ApprovedPEMF holds several FDA approvals. Although PEMF is just now becoming part of the mainstream conversation in the U.S., this technology has been a standard of care in Europe for decades and is recognized worldwide for its benefits.
Research on PEMF dates back to the early 1900s to the innovative genius of Nikola Tesla. NASA has done extensive research on PEMF and uses it to reverse the bone loss and muscle breakdown that happens when astronauts are in space.
To date, the following PEMF has FDA approval in the following areas:
1979: FDA approved PEMF therapy for stimulating bone growth

• This has applications for bone degenerating diseases like osteoporosis and to boost the healing of fractures.

1987: FDA approved as an adjunct therapy for reducing post-operative edema and pain

• Edema plagues millions of people in the U.S., and it is specifically an issue for people with diabetes.

2004: PEMF used as an adjunct to cervical fusion surgery.

• Cervical fusion is a permanent change to the spinal anatomy. Often, participants stillexperience residual pain even after this surgical procedure. PEMF is used to reduce this residual, chronic pain.

2008: FDA approved PEMF for use with depressed participants who have shown unresponsive to medication.

• The applications of this are monumental! Depression and anxiety go hand in hand and are highly responsive to PEMF.

Continued research shows remarkable results with wound healing and recovery, reduction of prostate inflammation, urinary incontinence, gout flares, chronic migraines, and the list goes on.

Frequently Asked Questions About PEMF

• Does PEMF therapy hurt?

  • No, you will feel a gentle pulsing or tapping. Many times our clients doze off during their sessions.

• Is PEMF safe?

  • Absolutely! This therapy charges your cells and allows them to function at their fullest capacity. Experiments conducted at Old Dominion University and supported by the U.S.Air Force Office of Scientific Research observed the effects of ultra-powerful pulses on living tissue. As an emerging field of study, Bioelectrics, reveal “these powerful, ultrashort voltage pulses do something nothing else can—harmlessly slip past the cell’s exterior to shock the vital structures within.”

• How can PEMF therapy help me?

  • Because everybody process runs on cellular function, having cells that are working at full capacity has countless applications. PEMF has proven very effective with the following common problems:

    • Helps with chronic (long-term) muscle pain and acute pain from new injuries.

    • Promotes quicker recovery time after strenuous physical workouts.

    • Supports healthy bone structure and healing after breaks or fractures.

    • Helps alleviate joint aches and pains by supporting healthy cartilage function.

    • Helps to alleviate symptoms associated with chronic headaches and/or seasonal allergies.

• What ages can benefit from PEMF?

  • People of all ages can benefit from PEMF therapy. There are no age restrictions.

• Will I have to undress?

  • No, all PEMF therapy can be done while you are fully clothed.

• How long are the therapy sessions?

  • Generally, we recommend 1-hour sessions to receive the full benefit of the treatment.

• How many sessions would I need?

  • This will be determined through your whole body assessment. Different problems require different amounts of treatment.

• What is PEMF Cellular Exercise?

  • Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) Cellular Exercise is a therapy in which electromagnetic fields reach deep inside your body to exercise your cells. It causes your cells to expand and contract, similarly to when you work out at the gym. Just like your muscles, your cells need to be strong.
    Weak cells are characterized by low voltage. PEMF Cellular Exercise replenishes energy in low voltage cells. As your cells expand and contract, they are able to expel toxins and absorb nutrients. Your cells’ voltage increases and they grow stronger. High voltage cells are able to grow, heal, and reproduce successfully. Strong cells will create more strong cells!

• Benefits of PEMF Cellular Exercise:

  • PEMF Cellular Exercise has also been found to support the body’s own healing ability by replenishing the natural charge that exists in healthy cells. When your body is healthy you sleep better, experience more energy, and are less likely to experience pain and inflammation.

• The history of PEMF Cellular Exercise:

  • The basic technology has existed in various forms for decades, starting with Nikola Tesla’s alternating current in the 1800s. About seventy years ago, Dr. Harold Saxton Burr, Ph.D. proved that disease was preceded by a quantifiable imbalance in our electrical charge. Shortly after, PEMF Cellular Exercise began being used to aid in bone growth. It currently is used to support whole-body wellness.
