What is PEMF?

A pulsating electro-magnetic field energy is delivered to the body through a coil is said to produce one main result: stimulating cell metabolism. This action is thought to cause a chain of processes in the body that could lead to improvement of health without side effects.

Increased oxygenation and blood flow helps support the bodies natural function and optimal wellness in a drug- free way.

 

When the PEMF coils are on the person or animal, there can be slight muscle vestisulations (movements) similar to how a tens machine can move your muscles by stimulating the nerves in the muscle to contract, though tens therapy is not the same and PEMF energy. The muscle moves due to the coagulation of blood and inflammation in the tissue, thus causing the movements. The person or animal can also feel pressure, tingling or a slightly 'zingy' sensation where there is inflammation involving the nerve branches. This therapy isn't meant to hurt, and it is a possibility to cause pain while the session is being conducted. it is highly recommended that you communicate any feelings and discomfort with the therapist. 

 

Is PEMF safe to use for my animal?

PEMF machines are not medical devices and do not treat or cure diseases or their symptoms. We always recommend consulting with your veterinarian concerning your equine/pets wellness program, but yes they are safe to use.

 

How long has PEMF been used or been available?

PEMF technology has existed for hundreds of years. MagnaWave was founded in 2002, and has been providing an avenue for wellness in animals ever since, using only top of the line equipment and thorough certification training. 

 

Is it the same as other magnetic therapy blankets? 

While the therapy is similar, PEMF is not a static magnet. The difference is in the delivery method, power and how PEMF yields a deeper penetration. The higher power of MagnaWave machines provide shorter session times and often immediate results. What the blankets can do in 2 to 3 weeks most MagnaWave machines can do in 10 minutes. 

 

How long does a session take?

Normal session time is 20-30 minutes but can vary depending on the situation.

 

How long will the results last?

Results can last a day or weeks depending on the issue. In a performance situation 1-2 sessions per week is normally sufficient. 

 

How does it show areas of sensitivity?

Muscle tissue palpitates in sensitive areas due to some type of resistance (inflammation) in the area & increased oxygenation and molecule movement in the cells.  

 

Why treat the whole body when the problem is in one area?

By increasing the blood oxygen in the whole body, the sensitive area continues to be benefited as super oxygenated blood from the rest of the body continues to flow through the area. Your practitioner will discuss how to approach your issue with you. 

 

What actually happens during a session?

The blood oxygen is increased, lymphatic system is activated and acupuncture points are stimulated. This process reduces pain and inflammation and promotes healing. The oxygenation of the blood helps relieve inflammation, thus relieving pain and helping the body begin to heal itself naturally. 

 

What should I expect after my first session?

A MagnaWave session can vary for each client. Diet, lifestyle, activity level, hydration, general health, & stress levels all contribute to how PEMF will work and how you or your animal feels after sessions. MagnaWave can help anyone feel energized, and this feeling can 

build for a few hours after a session. It is important to keep track of how you/they are feeling and for how long after each session. It tells your  practitioner how many sessions you/they will need to achieve your goals. If you notice you or your animal having less energy after 

a session, this may be due to a detox reaction. The body wants to clean house and is getting rid of toxins. Resting and keeping them hydrated may support this detox reaction. 

 

Can PEMF be used with microchips, stents, or metal implants?

Yes. While the magnetic field will not go through metal it will go around implants to the surrounding tissue. Microchips have not been affected.

​

Can PEMF be used with a Pacemaking device or implanted medical device such as an insulin pump? 

No, if you have an implanted pacemaker which cannot be removed, you cannot receive PEMF sessions, insulin pumps can be removed temporarily during the session and then re applied once the session in complete.
