What is PEMF?
PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field. It is a therapy designed to support the bodys natural healing process. Delivering electromagnetic pulses, PEMF works on a cellular level to promote cellular activity, circulation and overall wellness.
NASA started using PEMF for their Astronauts after they started getting "Space Sickness". Scientist realized that because the Astronauts were no longer on Earth, they were not getting the benefits of the Earth's natural magnetic field. That led to many different systems in their bodies to stop working efficiently. The PEMF helps mimic that frequency, but on a higher level to actually promote healing.
PEMF has been proven time and time again to help your body heal or work more efficiently. Some of the many measurable benefits include:
Pain and Comfort levels
Range of motion and Functional movement
Increased Circulation
Fractures
Arthritis
Anxiety/Depression
Tissue Oxygination
Cellular Rejuvination
Sleep Disorders
Abcess's
And so many more
