PEMF ANSWERS

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PEMF?

1

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) is demonstrating a wide range of health benefits, including: • Reducing pain and inflammation • Improving circulation • Enhancing the immune system • Promoting tissue repair and regeneration • Improving sleep quality • Reducing stress and anxiety • Enhancing mental clarity and focus

WHAT IS PEMF & WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER IT?

2

Our Body is Electromagnetic, every signal from our brain sends out is charged electrically. Our Nervous system is our electrical system. Trillions of cells in our bodies face environmental stressors every day. Similar to Batteries they rapidly lose energy, cells may need to recharge in order to best perform functions and maintain homeostasis within the body's complex systems. All the cells in our body are like batteries & they get run down. The PEMF Generator mimics the Earth's Magnetic Field that resets our Batteries, increases blood flow without the heart working harder (truly incredible), and increases the uptake of nutrients. Oxygen uptake more than 200% are just a few of the numerous benefits. PEMF can be used on all of the body or one specific area. The low frequency pulse goes through the body (clothing / even boots) simulating all cells and tissue at a microscopic level. Most clients all confess to a side effect: Sleep Improvement! Many studies were done to document the success, lack of side effects and mechanisms of energy field methods. Not surprisingly, the scientific evidence is that PEMF Therapy is effective because it conveys information that triggers specific repair activities within the whole body. Sciencedirect.com

HOW DOES PEMF THERAPY WORK?

3

PEMF therapy works by emitting low-frequency electromagnetic waves that penetrate deep into the body’s tissues, promoting cellular repair and regeneration. The therapy stimulates the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the body’s primary energy source, which promotes cellular repair and regeneration, reduces inflammation, and improves circulation.

WHEN SHOULDN'T I USE PEMF?

4

PEMF should not be used if the following situations or conditions apply to you... • Pacemaker or implanted medical equipment • Actively bleeding post surgery (typically two weeks post surgery) • Prior Stroke: Must be on Blood Thinners: PEMF will increase blood flow • Epilepsy or History of Seizures • Recent Organ Implant • Minors: bones are still forming / PEMF will cause bone growth
