What is PEMF?
What is Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy and can I benefit from it?
PEMF Therapy
FAQs
-
YES! In over 30 + years of research, there has been ZERO adverse reactions or events reported with the use of our machine, “PER 2000 - The Elektra” from Pulsed Energy Technologies. PEMF Therapy is much safer and far less invasive than direct current, electrical stimulation, or other electrical based modalities. Unlike those technologies, no electricity passes from the machine to the user. Our machine demonstrates that when used in or around water.

The body is already made up of millions of tiny electrical currents and impulses interacting throughout cells. The electrical wave that passes through the cells, from the PEMF device, is at a very powerful and fast rate. The spin of the electron is increased. By increasing the spin of the electron we are replenishing the transmembrane potential of the cell. In other words we are recharging the batteries of your cells. This charge typically last approximately 4 days.
Many times we find that the energy affects the Sodium/Potassium pump inside cells, and gives this a major “boost”. This pump helps maintain cell energy and regulate cellular volume.

PEMF has been observed to:
Reduce Pain and inflammation
Increase range of motion
Support faster functional recovery
Reduce muscle loss after surgery
Increase tensile strength in ligaments
Enhance healing in skin wounds
Improve blood circulation by enhancing capillary formation and improve Blood Pressure
accelerate nerve regeneration
reduce tissue necrosis or improves oxygenation of tissue
Improve immune system
Improve sleep through the stimulation and release of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) and Melatonin.
The FDA has cleared PEMF Therapy as an evidential treatment for wounds, bone fractures, any area of chronic injury and pain, osteogenesis, non-invasive bone growth and repair and to treat depression in patients who fail to respond to pharmacological therapy.
Little side effects have been reported from PEMF treatments. However, because PEMF is stimulating your cells it is requiring your body to use more of it’s fluids. Some have experienced symptoms similar to dehydration after a treatment. It is important to drink at least 24 ounces of water prior to treatment and after a treatment.

Pulsed Energy Technologies has put a list of recent trails that have taken place arond PEMF therapy. PEMF therapy is quite a new treatment, and because it works on a cellular level, there is still research being done.
PEMF therapy can help to increase the healing rate of fracture nonunion (fractures that haven’t healed back together properly) by 73% to 85% (https://josr-online.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1749-799X-7-24).
PEMF therapy can reduce pain in patients with fibromyalgia (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2670735/), rheumatoid arthritis (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16770449/), and osteoarthritis (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26705327/).
PEMF therapy is showing promise for helping with treatment-resistant depression (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27449361/).
PEMF therapy can reduce prostate size in benign prostatic hyperplasia (likely due to reducing inflammation) (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32090492/).

Just about EVERYONE can be treated with a PEMF machine like our PER 2000 Elektra. I have treated everyone from Athletes, Young and Middle aged Mom’s, Desk Dwellers, Hip and Knee replacements, Baby Boomers, ALS patience, Dogs and Horses.
The only conditions that prevent an individual from treatment are;
Pregnancy
History of epileptic seizures
Active or diagnosed malignancies
Electronic implants such as a pacemaker

When I first witnessed a horse being treated, I swore I was going to see a rodeo happen…Not the case! I was trained through a process of light stimulation and introduction to our equine friends. Ultimately, this leads to a great experience for the horse and owner.
I am always thrilled to see that horses do truly LOVE IT! Almost immediately will you see the horse start licking their lips and relaxing their bodies.
The treatment can be a true indication of where the horse’s problems are occurring.

The charge to our cells will hold approximately 4 days. To maintain a consistent treatment and experience the fastest results, I suggest begin with a 3x-treatment plan approximately 5-7 days apart. Once we experience the healing process, you may find that you can go longer between treatments.
