PEMF therapy involves applying electromagnetic energy to tissues to help optimise the cells and has had a surge in popularity since NASA commissioned a 4-year study in the 2000’s. The key findings of the study clearly demonstrated the regenerative effect that PEMF has on the body’s cells.
How does PEMF therapy help you:
Enhanced tissue repair – PEMF therapy stimulates the growth of stem cells, this then increases wound healing by increasing the bodies’ ability to regenerate damaged cells and tissues.
Bone density and muscle health – The NASA study indicated positive outcomes in preventing bone loss and muscle atrophy. As a result, PEMF is particularly good for people who have lower bone density or are just going through a stage of recovery and wanting to reduce the muscle wastage whilst recovering and not being able to exercise whilst recovering.
Improved circulation – can occur due to a stimulation of nitric oxide which is a vasodilator that improves blood flow around the body.
Reduced cell deaths – PEMF counters hypoxia induced apoptosis, this means that cells that are dying due to lack of oxygen in your body reduces as the PEMF therapy improves circulation oxygen becomes more available in the body reducing the speed of apoptosis.
Reduced Inflammation – the improved blood flow caused by PEMF helps to transfer nutrients and oxygen around the body and this in turn helps the body to keep inflammation levels lower.
