Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy

How Does PEMF Therapy Relieve Pain?

Every part of your body, including your skin, bones, and organs are composed of cells. The membranes of healthy cells have positive and negative magnetic charges. These charges are required to exchange ions carrying chemical elements your body needs to function, like calcium and potassium.

Over time your cells deteriorate or get injured, and when that happens, they lose their magnetic charges - and with them, the ability to exchange ions. Symptoms like inflammation, fatigue, and pain are caused by damaged cells with low charges. PEMF technology targets the affected area and restores cells’ healthy electromagnetic charges.

What is Pulsed Electromagnetic field (PEMF) Therapy?

PEMF Therapy is a form of energy therapy that emits pulsating electromagnetic fields based on the earth’s natural state. The natural electromagnetic frequency (EMF) of the earth has a frequency of approximately 7.8HZ and intensity of around 1 pico tesla.

This is called the Schumann Resonance in which you have lived your entire life. It surrounds you. When astronauts travel outside the ionosphere their bodies begin to deteriorate as they are outside this Resonance - we need the earths EMF to be healthy. The earths EMF is as critical to us as oxygen, water, food and sleep. Without EMF we could not survive.

The science behind PEMF began thousands of years ago with the therapeutic use of magnetic fields by the ancient Greek and Chinese cultures. At the end of the 19th century Nikola Tesla created the 'Tesla Coil', an electromagnetic device which he used on his patients. He found they usually experienced an immediate relief in their pain. In the 1960s clinical studies were conducted on electromagnetic fields in Russia and Japan and in the decades following there has been over 30,000 studies proving the beneficial effects of pulsating electromagnetic fields for a wide variety of health conditions and general human and health and wellbeing.

What does PEMF Therapy do?

PEMF is known to increase the body’s natural cellular communication processes and to improve the energy production capability of the cells. This in turn creates increased internal cell stability and enhanced cellular repair.

Compare the cells in your body to that of a battery. When we are sick or injured the voltage in our cells is reduced and therefore have a reduced ability to function efficiently. Your body’s ability to heal requires energy, just as you need to recharge your battery. Beneficial natural magnetic waves are pulsed by PEMF Therapy through the body that reach every cell, tissue and organ. The waves induce electrical impulses that charge the cells to their proper voltage.

The goal of PEMF is to enhance natural cellular communication processes and to improve the energy production capability of the cells creating internal cell stability and enhancing cellular repair.

Lower cell membrane ionisation results in impaired energy production by the cell as a result of reduced oxygenation and nutrient absorption. Lower cell membrane ionisation also impairs waste removal from cells, reducing cell defence and repair mechanisms, allowing inaccurate cell reproduction and suboptimal cell function over time.

Cell specific PEMF builds cell energy through improved oxygenation and optimal alkalinisation of cells, leading to enhanced cell health and function. The optimised cellular functioning result in positive whole body outcomes including; improved circulation, improved heart rhythm regulation, optimal respiratory pathways, enhanced immune and healing cell responses, normalisation of the flow of blood and balanced blood viscosity.

How has the earth changed to require PEMF Therapy?

Over the past 300 years the Schumann Resonance which is the earth's magnetic field has declined by 50%. Changes in how society operates means the average person stays inside 90% of the day, living and working in concrete structures, driving in metal cars, and wear rubber soled shoes which results in the shielding of us from naturally occurring beneficial PEMF. This has resulted in a loss of cell membrane integrity leading to compromised immunity, susceptibility to illness and depression.

We are also exposed to damaging high level EMF's through power lines, computers, mobile phones, microwaves and televisions etc. These high levels of EMF cause a "sub-molecular electronic disturbance" This requires lower level beneficial PEMF to repair damage to cell membrane ionisation and integrity.

 The waves created by PEMF devices occur in brief bursts and are very low frequency, like the electromagnetic waves found in nature. In fact, most waves involved in PEMF treatments have a lower frequency than you would be exposed to during a thunderstorm.

How can PEMF Therapy potentially benefit my health?

  • Reduces Pain

  • Improves Sleep & Insomnia

  • Enhances Circulation

  • Increase Oxygen Absorption

  • Increases Energy & Vitality

  • Improves Metabolism

  • Reduces Swelling & Inflammation

  • Improves Immunes System

  • Increases Bone Density & Healing

  • Faster Injury Recovery

  • Improves Absorption of Nutrients

  • Increases Rang of Motion

  • Reduces Stress

  • Improves Sport Performance

 

What conditions can it be used to manage?

Cells are the building blocks of life and their optimal functioning positively influences the levels of health in our bodies. The improvement of cellular metabolism and waste removal dramatically enhances whole body functioning thus reducing the effect of many ailments.

Conditions that show improvement include:

  • Non-union fractures

  • Pain- acute, chronic, and neuropathic

  • Chronic fatigue

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Arthritis

  • Exhaustion

  • Hypertension

  • Ligament injuries

  • Anxiety

What can I expect from a PEMF Therapy Session?

 A PEMF treatment will last between 40-60 minutes depending on the individual circumstances. It requires only lying down or seated fully clothed on a PEMF body mat. Most people feel absolutely nothing. Occasionally there is a slight tingling or warmth due to the increased circulation from the therapy.

What is the cost of a PEMF Therapy Session?

A PEMF Therapy treatment is $80 per 25 - 40 minute session.

PEMF Therapy Systems are also available for rental on a weekly basis.

Is PEMF Therapy Safe?

PEMF is a safe non-invasive healing therapy - only natural magnetic frequencies are used which fall between the 'biological window' of the earth’s natural frequencies or 0.5 - 15 Hz. It is the most scientifically researched and documented field of energy medicine and is approved by the FDA and other international certifying organisations. Many prominent doctors and researchers are now discovering the tremendous benefits of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy.

Can anyone have PEMF Therapy?

 PEMF Therapy is not recommended in some clients.

Please do not book a treatment if you:

  • Are pregnant

  • Have any implanted electronic devices (eg. Pacemakers, Defibrillators or Insulin Supply Systems)

  • Have epilepsy

 

How will I feel after a PEMF Therapy session?

 The way you feel after a PEMF Therapy experience is very individual and depends on the severity of your condition, overall health, lifestyle and other variables. Please ensure you are well hydrated before a treatment.

Generally, people report as feeling:

  • Less pain

  • Greater range of motion in joints

  • Enhanced flexibility

  • Increased energy

  • Increased sense of well-being

  • Enhanced motor coordination

  • Improved sleep
