PEMF Therapy

Preparation for Therapy Sessions

In preparation for a PEMF Therapy Session, it is important to:

  • feel comfortable and relaxed
  • be hydrated by drinking sufficient good quality water (2 litres daily)
  • be well rested (preferably not tired or fatigued)
  • be prepared to discuss issues related to pain, injury and chronic illness

Protocols During Therapy Sessions

During a PEMF Therapy Session, it is important for the client to:

  • disclose if they are pregnant or have embedded electronic devices (hearing aid, pacemaker), in which case PEMF should not be applied
  • remove all metal objects (watch) and electronic devices (phones)
  • listen to their body and communicate how it is responding to the PEMF, as this may indicate health issues about which they may not be aware
  • gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between biological cells and the functioning of the human body, as well as the effects of PEMF on cells and the way they are positively impacted
  • ensure that they are not subjected to PEMF energy levels that make them uncomfortable/anxious

Responses after Therapy Sessions

After a PEMF Therapy Session, typical responses may include:

  • improved strength, energy, mobility & posture
  • reduced pain & inflammation
  • improved circulation (blood & lymph)
  • release of toxins, which is why it is important to ensure full hydration to help flush toxins from the body
  • improved sleep
  • tiredness, necessitating a period of rest (as opposed to exertion)
  • muscle soreness, necessitation light stretching and exercise

Important Things to Understand about PEMF Therapy

  • PEMF recharges cells with energy, but the healing process is not complete until the cell is restored to optimum healthy functioning – PEMF needs to be applied regularly (every 2-3 days) until the process is complete, otherwise the cell may regress to its previous unhealthy state
  • PEMF produces broad outcomes (e.g. improved circulation of blood & lymph), as well as targeted outcomes (e.g. reduction in chronic pain in a knee or hip joint)
  • PEMF complements traditional and alternative forms of medical and other therapy practices – in some cases PEMF has been found to be suitable to replace these practices
