PEMF therapy educational resources

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy or PEMF therapy is a safe, and non-invasive treatment to reduce inflammation and boost health and wellbeing.

What does PEMF therapy do?

PEMF uses magnetic fields that are switched on and off using frequency generators. These magnetic fields are applied for therapeutic benefits. 

Does PEMF therapy really work? What types of conditions can PEMF therapy treat?

As per thousands of PEMF therapy studies and articles, PEMF can be effective for hundreds for disorders. 

Evidence-based clinical trials of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy shows success in the management of postsurgical pain and edema, the treatment of chronic wounds, and in facilitating faster recovery from many neurological conditions such as stroke and parkinson's disease. Therefore PEMF therapy is a great complementary therapy. Also known as low field magnetic stimulation (LFMS), PEMF has been proven to help heal non-union fractures and depression. 

Devices that utilize PEMF technology emit electromagnetic pulses at varied frequencies in order to stimulate the cell's oxygenation. Several PEMF mats, PEMF machines and high-intensity clinical PEMF systems are available now that can be compared to study their effects and benefits. 

Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy has also been found to be effective in low back pain much like static magnetic field therapy for back pain. 

The Efficacy of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy depends on individual condition and the capability of the PEMF device employed and ofcourse the duration of treatment. 

That said, PEMF therapy is simple to use, cost-effective and has no known side effects.

Many scientific studies can be found in reputed journals on Pubmed such as Hindawi, Wiley and Sciencedirect. 

Can PEMF be harmful?

There are no adverse side-effects reported for PEMF. More in-depth side-effects studies of PEMF can be studied and contraindications should be sought before using. 

Latest trends in PEMF

Until 5 years ago, pulsed electromagnetic field therapy was relatively unknown. However now, there are dozens of new PEMF products being launched every month. Hundreds of thousands of people and professional practitioners are interested in trying and exploring this wonderful natural way to enhance cellular regeneration and longevity.

The PEMF book, explores in detail the latest scientific studies and trends in PEMF applications. The key areas of new developments are neurological health, sleep health, rehabilitation and pain relief. 

We believe pain relief is one of the best ways to judge a product's effectiveness. According to a CDC report more than 20% of the US population has chronic pain issues at some point or another. There is also an ongoing crisis with pain medications, therefore a safe, pain relief technology such as PEMF therapy or magnetic therapy is a great research area, and it's nice to see rapid development in this field.
