PEMF for Beginners
It is a known fact that electromagnetic energy exists in nature. Nothing in this body works without the electromagnetic energy. When this energy ceases to flow in the body, life ceases. The electrocardiogram (ECG) and electroencephalograph (EEG) are perfect examples of this notion. It is the electromagnetic energy that controls the chemistry of the human body. There is electromagnetic exchange between the cells and when this exchange is disrupted, illness sets in the body. Disruption of cellular electromagnetic exchange could be due to various reasons but this disruption leads to impaired cell metabolism. When the cells are not healthy, our body too does not remain healthy.
What are PEMFs?
PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field. The devices imparting the PEMFs are used to improve the cell metabolism and circulation. The body is not readily able to absorb the static magnetic fields around us. However, when the energy is pulsed, it quite easily penetrates deep into the body and provides a cascade of effects within the body.
What do the PEMF Devices do?
In a broad term, the PEMF devices provide treatment at the cellular level. The cell membranes are like the doors and windows of our house. They need to be opened and closed at the right time to let in air and oxygen. In the same manner, the cell channels are opened and closed to absorb in nutrients and expel waste from them. This way optimum cell function is maintained. Similar type of cells come together to form tissues and tissues come together to form organs. When cells work properly, the organs that they make work properly. Therefore, maintenance of cellular functions is very important and this is what the PEMF devices do. They treat the cells so that their functionality is maintained and the lost balance is restored.
Can PEMF replace medication?
It must be known that PEMF works for the cellular treatment of the body. When cells remain unhealthy for quite some time, they turn into a disease condition. PEMF cannot cure problems like heart disease, cancer, diabetes or arthritis, because the cellular health in these cases has deteriorated beyond repair. However, what PEMF can do is assist medications and other therapies to provide better results for the control of these problems.
Therefore, PEMF is a non-invasive technique that works towards the cellular treatment. Pain management and recovery from injury, stress and depression are the best known benefits of the therapy. There are various devices of varying frequencies that can be used to provide the required treatment.
