PEMF
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field technology (“PEMF”) is a comfortable general wellness modality with a variety of benefits. The use of electromagnetic fields for wellness actually dates back to the 19th century and has a rich history of scientific discovery. Each cell of the body relies on an electrical charge to allow ions and nutrients to enter as well as release inflammatory waste products. When cells become run down or injured this resting electrical charge is altered, making it less efficient at performing its job or healing. The pulsing field of PEMF introduces an electromagnetic charge which stimulates and exercises the cells, allowing them to use the energy from PEMF to better perform their many jobs. It relaxes the body to assist with muscle fatigue, provides full-body energy and enhances the natural recovery process. PEMF capitalizes on the intelligence and holistic nature of the body by providing the raw energy crucial to the body’s ability to heal and regulate itself.
Not all PEMF machines are created equal. PEMF machines are categorized into high and low intensity. Zimmerman Sports Chiropractic uses the top of the line luxury XL Pro model made by Pulse. This unit allows us to focus on multiple areas at the same time. It also has 19 distinct pulse rates, including a grounding setting of 7.8 (Earth’s natural magnetic frequency), that provides therapeutic customization to target different tissues of the body such as bone, muscle, organs, etc.
We encourage you to further research this amazing wellness technology by searching “PEMF Therapy” on peer reviewed sites such as PubMed.gov and Google Scholar. You can also view the videos below.
