PEMF IS A WHOLE BODY HEALER!
PEMF devices are literally a “whole body battery recharger”, and by using a PEMF4000 therapy just 2 times a day for 8 minutes, you recharge your 100 trillion cells, improve ATP production, increase oxygenation, enhance circulation, increase hydration, facilitate detoxification, and gain a better absorption of nutrients.
I have seen pulsed magnetic therapy help so many people with so many different conditions, especially with pain relief and better sleep; I feel that I can almost guarantee it will help anyone. Of course, I don’t guarantee anything and I certainly do not make any claims for treating or curing any disease, but when you see not just one, not just a dozen, but literally hundreds of people benefit in such profound ways; you speak with passion and confidence. And these are hundreds of people I have personally worked with; not just second hand testimonials or antidotal evidence.
And PEMF therapy can help YOU too! Whether you are in perfect health, or you have any kind of intermittent or chronic issue! If your body is out of balance, PEMF can “jump start” the healing process. Imagine putting little tiny jumper cables on all 100 trillion cells and jump-starting them back to health.
Having healthy cells is not a passive process. Active, regular tuning-up of our cells is not only feasible, but also necessary to slow aging and reduce the risk of cell dysfunction. We are, after all, only as healthy as our cells. Imperceptible cell dysfunction that is not corrected early can lead to disease. Fine-tuning can be done daily in only minutes, using pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs). In addition, when there is a known imbalance (when symptoms are present) or there is a known disease or condition, PEMF treatments, used either alone or along with other therapies, can often help cells rebalance dysfunction faster.
PEMFs work to:
- Reduce pain, inflammation, the effects of stress on the body, and platelet adhesion.
- Improve energy, circulation, blood and tissue oxygenation, sleep quality, blood pressure and cholesterol levels, the uptake of nutrients, cellular detoxification and the ability to regenerate cells.
- Balance the immune system and stimulate RNA and DNA.
- Accelerate repair of bone and soft tissue.
- Relax muscles.
PEMFs have been used extensively for decades for many conditions and medical disciplines, and results can be seen in animals as well as humans. The National Institutes of Health have made PEMFs a priority for research. In fact, many PEMF devices have already been approved by the FDA, some specifically to fuse broken bones, wound healing, pain and tissue swelling, and treat depression. Most therapeutic PEMF devices are considered safe by various standards and organizations.
What are PEMFs and how do they work?
Science teaches us that everything is energy. Energy is always dynamic and, therefore, has a frequency; it changes by the second or minute, for example, at the very least.
All energy is electromagnetic in nature. All atoms, chemicals and cells produce electromagnetic fields (EMFs). Every organ in the body produces it own signature bioelectromagnetic field. Science has proven that our bodies actually project their own magnetic fields and that all 70 trillion cells in the body communicate via electromagnetic frequencies. Nothing happens in the body without an electromagnetic exchange. When the electromagnetic activity of the body ceases, life ceases.
Physics, that is, electromagnetic energy, controls chemistry. This in turn controls tissue function. Disruption of electromagnetic energy in cells causes impaired cell metabolism, whatever the initial cause. This happens anywhere in the disease process.
PEMFs address impaired chemistry and thus the function of cells – which in turn, improves health. PEMFs deliver beneficial, health-enhancing EMFs and frequencies to the cells. Low frequency PEMFs of even the weakest strengths pass right through the body, penetrating every cell, tissue, organ and even bone without being absorbed or altered! As they pass through, they stimulate most of the electrical and chemical processes in the tissues. Therapeutic PEMFs are specifically designed to positively support cellular energy, resulting in better cellular health and function.
Devices that produce PEMFs vary by a number of important features: frequency, waveform, strength, and types of stimulators. Frequencies can be simple or complex; and high, medium or low. Intensity can also be high, medium or low.
No “one-size” treatment fits all situations. Most PEMF devices help to varying degrees depending on the problem or condition, but selecting the wrong device may produce unsatisfactory results. Since the body is complex, PEMFs are ideal devices to be able get good results without needing a myriad of different treatments.
Aren’t some EMFs bad for you?
They can be. Evidence is mounting that a new form of pollution called “electrosmog” is a very real threat because it is disruptive to cell metabolism. Manmade, unnatural EMFs come from electrical wiring and equipment, for example, power lines, communications towers, computers, TVs, cell phones – everything from the wiring in our homes to fluorescent lighting to microwave ovens, hair dryers, clock radios, electric blankets and more.
Electrosmog EMFs are not designed with the body in mind. They can be a strong inducer of stress in the body and, therefore, drain our energy. Electrosmog includes “dirty” electricity, ground currents, microwaves and radio waves. Microwaves are not only from leaky microwave ovens, but also from cell towers, cell phones and wireless equipment.
Electrosmog is all around us and can only be partially blocked. One of the best solutions is to take measures to decrease your exposure. With therapeutic PEMFs, one can purposely add beneficial balancing frequencies to the body to decrease the burden of the negative effects of electrosmog.
PEMFs and Magnets: What’s the difference?
PEMFs are frequency-based, applied to either the whole body or parts of the body. PEMFs may only be needed for short periods of time, while the effects last for many hours, setting in motion cellular and whole-body changes to restore and maintain balance in metabolism and health. The body does not acclimate, or “get used to,” the healthy energy signals of therapeutic PEMFs, even if used for a long time, compared to magnets.
Stationary (or “static”), non-varying, magnetic fields from magnets have fixed strengths. They are used in mattresses, bracelets, knee wraps and the like. Most have very shallow penetration into the body, resulting in a very limited ability to affect deeper tissues, and they rarely treat all the cells of the body simultaneously. Only skilled practitioners may guide you to get the best results from these approaches.
Experience with PEMFs
There are quite a number of PEMF systems available now in the US, for daily in-home use, that can help meet your unique needs. Some are FDA-approved and many more are available over-the counter or from various experienced practitioners. Some whole-body systems have been available in the US for over a decade and have been used in Europe by tens of thousands of people for a wide variety of problems without significant negative effects for over 20 years. One PEMF system has been studied through NIH-supported research at the University of Virginia for Rheumatoid Arthritis. These whole body systems have been used worldwide, not only by health-conscious individuals for health improvement and maintenance, but also by world-class and Olympic athletes for increased endurance, enhanced performance, and faster recovery.
What kind of doctor can help me with PEMFs?
Unfortunately, very few conventional, and even alternative or holistic, doctors know about these devices or this technological area. This is not a subject of mandatory education for doctors. Doctors often learn about these new technologies long after the public does, as has been seen with acupuncture. The process of educating doctors and other non-medical practitioners is growing all the time but will take years. Be patient and look for practitioners who have expertise in the area of PEMF therapies.
PEMF Unit Comparison Introduction
PEMF technology is revolutionizing the way doctors treat pain – and while there are
many different devices available, there is very little information explaining what makes
one PEMF machine better than any other.
If you’re like the rest of us, you probably found lots of confusing numbers and scientific
terms when you tried to find the real difference between these machines yourself. You
know, the kind of information you can’t find in a sales pitch!
That’s why, right here and right now, we are going to clear the fog surrounding what
makes one PEMF machine better than another – so you can make an informed decision as
a doctor or patient looking to experiment with one for yourself.
Why PEMF Works
To make a wiser buying decision, it helps to know what’s happening when you use a
PEMF device. We’re going to go over the basics so you have a clearer understanding of
what is really going on during your PEMF treatment. After you know, you may find it’s
easier to get a sense of which kind of PEMF device will work best for you. We’ll keep
this short, sweet and simple so remember to take mental notes because they’ll help you
when we start comparing the different machines.
The first PEMF device was called a ‘lightning’ machine for a reason! PEMF works
because it charges up your cells with electricity. Problems that the PEMF treats such as
chronic pain can only happen in areas of low voltage in the body. That is, places where
the cells are low on energy for any number of reasons (injury, fatigue, illness, etc).
A PEMF machine sends extra electrical charge to those low energy areas using magnetic
fields to carry it into the body. Basically, the device send a ‘package’ of energy into the
low energy areas – think of the magnetic field as the envelope and the electricity as the
message! And when the cells receive that electricity they immediately use it to heal the
body – and relief can happen very quickly (within seconds to minutes) depending on the
device.
What makes the PEMF 4000 device different than the others?
There are only two big differences between PEMF machines:
1) How much electricity you get with each pulse.
There are two types of PEMF device: High Power and Low Power. Each gets results but
performs best in different situations. You can tell the difference between machines by
how many ‘Tesla per pulse’ it has – more Tesla equals more power!
High Power devices like the PEMF 4000 range up in the milliTesla (mT) per pulse. They
make a loud ‘pop’ sound during treatment because of an internal ‘spark’ process used to
generate the magnetic field. And you can feel immediate pain relieving results with them
within minutes (or, in the case of the PEMF 4000, seconds) of treatment. High Power
PEMF is also known for improving mood, killing bacteria and strengthening the immune
system.
Low Power devices range from the milliTesla down into microTesla – just to give you
some perspective, a microTesla is 1000 times smaller than a milliTesla. Their pulses are
generated and controlled electronically. While people do report positive results they tend
to be for mood enhancement, insomnia relief and anti depression rather than for pain
management. In cases of pain, low-powered units can get results over the long term. They
may be effective treating animals for whom the High Powered units are too strong.
2) How fast each pulse enters the body.
This is important because the faster the pulse enters the body, the more energy the cell
will actually receive. That’s because the cell can only take in electricity that moves fast
enough to penetrate its cell wall! So, the faster the pulse, the more benefit you receive.
High Power devices pulse faster than Lower Power ones. And the PEMF 4000 pulses
much faster than other High Power units. You can tell by the treatment time it takes
before you feel results!
That’s why, for the PEMF unit comparison below, we calculated the treatment time
required before its users experienced tangible results. We calculated the timing based on
the testimonials posted by users on each machine’s company website and by the
testimony of our own users treating chronic pain with the PEMF 4000.
All you need to remember is this – the faster the pulse enters the cells, the shorter the
amount of time you need to treat before you feel powerful results!
Over the past 40 years scientists from around the world have investigated the effects of Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Frequencies (PEMF) on nearly every organ and every disease in the body, resulting in over 2,000 published clinical studies showing the many benefits provided by PEMF therapy.
Such devices can be pulsed to produce magnetic fields that change very rapidly. This opens a whole new world of medical applications since changing magnetic fields can induce tiny electrical currents in human tissue. Pulsing electromagnetic therapy is approved by the FDA to promote the healing of serious bone fractures. And powerful electromagnets are used in brain and muscle research to generate currents strong enough to fire nerves that trigger sensations and flex muscles. To date, there have been many basic research studies and many clinical trials of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy .
We now know the mineral in these rocks is magnetite. Magnetic therapy was already practiced in China around 2000 B.C., as recorded in The Yellow Emperor’s Book of Internal Medicine. In that ancient medical text, “magnetic stones” were advocated to correct health imbalances. (Lawrence 1998/1) In the Middle Ages magnetic treatment was delivered by placing “lodestones” on the body. Lodestones, or “guiding stones,” were so named because of their use in navigational compasses by Viking, European and Arab sailors.
At the end of the 19th century the electron was discovered and electro-magnetism was brought into the realm of science on the atomic level. Albert Einstein showed that electricity and magnetism are not discrete phenomena, but different aspects of the same phenomenon. (Encyclopedia Britannica Vol. 18 15th Ed. 1991/2) Medical textbooks included magnetism and electricity as therapeutic alternatives for insomnia, fatigue, arthritis, pain and convulsions. Magnetic boots, rings, girdles, caps and ointments were available in mail-order catalogues. At the same time Daniel David Palmer, Canadian fishmonger turned “magnetic healer” founded Palmer’s School of Magnetic Cure in Davenport, Iowa. When in 1895 he began applying short-lever manipulations to the spine with great effect, the Palmer School of Chiropractic was born.
Mention the word “magnet” and the word “therapy” together in the same sentence in North America today and many people start to backpedal. Several historical events explain why this is so. Magnetic therapy became shrouded in mystery in part because of Franz Anton Mesmer, an 18th century German physician and mathematician. He wrote his doctoral thesis on gravitational fields in human health. He postulated that the body had “magnetic poles” and that these poles move out of alignment with the universal magnetic flow causing all illness. He called magnetism within the body “animal magnetism.” His patients sometimes fainted or went into convulsions in his Paris salon, claiming that they had been “mesmerized.” Mesmer’s notions of magnetism gradually became equated with hypnotic suggestion.
The modern clinical application of electro-biology in North America began in 1971 when Friedenberg described their success in the healing of a nonunion fracture treated with 10 micro amps of direct current delivered with stainless steel electrodes. Avoiding the invasive nature of Friedenberg’s direct currents, Dr. Andrew Bassett at Columbia University Medical Center introduced a new approach for the treatment of non-healing bone fractures and pseudarthroses that employed very specific, biphasic low frequency electromagnetic signals. Public awareness also increased in the mid-1970s amidst reports of successful enhancement of the speed and endurance of racehorses treated with electromagnetic fields. Based on the published work of Dr. Bassett, in 1979 the FDA allowed electromagnetic fields to be used in the USA for non-union and delayed union fractures. A decade later the FDA allowed the use of pulsed radiofrequency electromagnetic fields for the treatment of pain and edema in superficial soft tissues. It is now commonly accepted that weak electromagnetic fields are capable of initiating various beneficial biological processes including healing for delayed fractures, pain relief, and modulation of muscle tone and spasm.
