Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy is a new approach to pain management that uses magnets to create pulsing, moving energy. These energy waves could change the way your body copes with pain. Learn more about this new treatment. Could it work for you?

Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is FDA-approved to fuse bones and has been cleared in certain devices to reduce swelling and joint pain. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) work on the same physics.

This therapy has been used to treat pain and edema in soft tissue for over 60 years. The technology stemmed from radio frequency (RF) diathermy, which utilized a continuous electromagnetic field to produce heat in soft tissue.

A moving – or resonating – magnetic field can create currents without heating and thus directly alter cellular signaling. It has been firmly established that tissues including blood, muscle, ligaments, bone and cartilage respond to biophysical input, including electrical and electromagnetic fields. New studies show that with the proper field intensity and frequency, treatment with PEMF appears to be disease-modifying. The stimulation of TGF? may be a mechanism by which PEMF favorably affects cartilage homeostasis. Through calcium-calmodulin-dependent pathways, PEMF may also increase nitric oxide activity.

PEMF Mat Devices  

On the show, world-class pain specialist Dr. James Dillard mentioned electromagnetic portable pads to Dr. Oz. These mats produce a therapeutic pulsed electromagnetic field that can surround the entire body. They are not FDA-approved and are not made in the USA. PEMF mats are primarily advertised and distributed over the Internet, often used without medical supervision. Retail price is $2000 to $3000, and often renting is possible for a weekly rate. There are a dozen different companies that make these devices. Three examples are the Mediconsult iMRS/MRS2000, Medithera Home System, and Quantron Resonance System QRS-101.

PEMF Knee Device

Also on the show, family physician Dr. William Pawluk discussed the OrthoCor Active Knee System. This is an FDA-approved device that combines PEMF energy and thermal therapy to increase circulation and thus reduce swelling, relieve chronic pain and arthritis, as well as improve range of motion. The device’s technology consists of a cuff that surrounds the knee. It has a coil and heat pods that send magnetic pulses and heat through the injured tissue. Patients can walk while the OrthoCor device is in operation. OrthoCor sells its products through orthopedic clinics, physicians and health care practitioners.

PEMF Patch Devices

Dr. Pawluk also introduced a small, disposable PEMF device called Acti-Patch by Bioelectronics Corp. In Canada, ActiPatch is a Class II device and is sold over-the-counter. Health Canada has approved it for relief of musculoskeletal pain. It is not FDA-approved for musculoskeletal pain, so the efficacy of these patches is still unclear. It may have some benefit with superficial pain and edema.

Hi,

I would say that there are 3 main factors you want to look at:

1. what am I buying?

MICROTESLA (mT) is the “magic in the bottle” – you are paying for how
many microtesla will be delivered to your body.

Most home PEMF devices do not go over 30 mT – QRS, MRS2000, etc

The Medithera 6′ mat delivers 70 mT and the 2′ pillow pad 75 mT.

2. What “age” of technology am I getting?

iMRS2000, QRS, BEEMER, etc all use old technology
jagged, cell jolting saw tooth wave.

Only the Medithera has a completely redesigned wave
form that is much more compatible with the human body
therefore it delivers better results to your body.

3. how much does it cost?

iMRS2000 – $5000
QRS Quantron – $4300
New Beemer – $4300

Medithera – $3250

So, to summarize, one machine:

1. delivers more than twice as many MicroTesla
2. uses new, state-of-the-art, leading edge technology
3. costs over $1000 less than others

the choice seems fairly simple.

thnx for your interest

ps I personally sold my previous PEMF machine and upgraded to a Medithera.  I’m glad I did, I can really feel the difference…

I have experience with the MRS2000, QRS, Magno- Pro, Bemer3000, P-Energizer, the Medithera  System just to name a few that are out there. All of these devices are good for you, so it comes down to a few things and for most of us these days it comes down to price when most things are equal.

Fact: When a company is a MLM company first you can almost be sure up to half the cost you pay for PEMF device goes to a down line you will never meet but you will be giving them your hard earned money.

For most of us this is a top 10 purchase of our lives. It is more likely the only health device we will purchase. To get an unbiased look at most of these devices go to electromeds.com

Best Regards,

Michael
