PEMF Therapy

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy has helped our clients find relief from numerous forms of chronic pain and other ailments.   The therapy uses high intensity, short duration electromagnetic pulses of energy that safely penetrate the body to stimulate better cell function.   Typical treatments last either 30 or 60 minutes, ideally two to three times per week, although our staff will work you as the client to devise the optimal treatment plan.

PEMF therapy has been used for decades, perhaps most prominently by doctors at the National Aeronautical and Space Administration (NASA), to help astronauts recover from bone density losses and muscle atrophy after extended periods of space travel.    Research scientists around the world have published extensive clinical studies on the application of PEMF therapy to address common chronic ailments such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and neuropathy. Physicians have successfully used PEMF to accelerate healing of acute (non-chronic) conditions such as bone fractures, joint sprains, and post-operative inflammation.

More than just for pain, research shows us that the PEMF device can help to rebuild bone, which can be helpful for those with osteoporosis. Current research on PEMF’s use in depression, as well as debilitating neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s, is extremely promising. Our experience has shown us that after a session on the PEMF machine people feel, energized, positive and tend to sleep more soundly.

The clinical research has documented virtually no negative side-effects from PEMF therapy and contra-indications are extremely limited – generally to implanted electrical devices such as pacemakers and pregnancy.

If chronic pain is keeping you from living the life you want, PEMF therapy could be the solution that you have been hoping for.
