What is PEMF Therapy?
Think of it as an energy booster for your cells. It is not out of place for your cells to slowly run out of energy and this is where PEMF therapy comes in. Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field therapy works by sending magnetic energy into your body. It is worthy of note that this procedure has been regarded to not be invasive, and as a result, it is completely safe. The magnetic energy the therapy sends to your body will increase electrolytes and ions. This therapy used technology to enhance the performance of cells and improve general body well-being. The purpose of PEMF therapy is to work together with the body cells to reduce and cure chronic pain. In addition, Bryant Meyers backs up this claim by adding that PEMF works not as a cure but as a helper, assistant, and catalyst to stimulate the body’s innate intelligence to heal itself. This further means that the body can heal itself, but sometimes needs a push from procedures such as PEMF therapy. Generally, this therapy is recommended for patients with pain in their ankles, hips, knees, shoulder, and so on. In more serious cases, it can be recommended for patients suffering from poor wound healing, chronic inflammation in joints or soft tissues, peripheral neuropathy, and others.
How PEMF Therapy Balances the Immune System
Apart from the instances listed above as regards what Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field Therapy can be recommended for, it can also be prescribed to help balance the immune system. Your immune system is a combination of cells and proteins that fight infections in your body and keep you healthy. The immune system includes white blood cells, antibodies, the lymphatic system, bone marrow, spleen, and complement system. In some cases, the body can develop immunodeficiency disorders and this implies that the body will not be able to fight infections and diseases like it used to. These disorders can be primary or secondary. You are born with the primary disorders while you acquire the secondary ones. It is worthy of note that secondary disorders are more common. This is where PEMF therapy comes in as it helps to improve the immune system and it increases the amount of oxygen in the cell. Furthermore, PEMF therapy increases blood circulation and oxygen levels. Also, this therapy is administered to boost the immune system in the place of antibiotic drugs because during the breakdown of the drug, the body can still acquire more bacteria and infections but with PEMF therapy, the process is faster and the results are quicker.
It has been argued that the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is also part of the immune system and genetics can sometimes play roles in the body’s abilities to fight infections, viruses, and diseases. In order words, this means that immunity can run in a family. This conclusion was drawn based on the fact that some diseases and conditions are hereditary. This point is important to the balancing of the immune system because PEMF therapy also helps to improve communication among cells. For your DNA to be able to regulate the replication and renewal of cells, it has to work together with the RNA (ribonucleic acid) by conducting electrons. This flow of electrons between these two entities can sometimes be strained; because of this, the electromagnetic fields that are present in the PEMF therapy helps with better flow. Not only does it help with the flow, but it also results in the rapid regeneration of tissues. A fun fact about this therapy is that you can start noticing improvements after one to three sessions; that’s pretty quick! Also, it is drug-free and so far, no side effects have been reported. For more assurance about the safety of the therapy, it was approved and cleared by the Federal and Drug Administration. It is important to note that the sessions for Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field Therapy are brief and only last between ten to twenty minutes.
Conclusion
Your body cells do amazing jobs on their own and try their possible bests to make sure you are healthy. But, the energy levels of your cells can drop and the PEMF therapy helps to increase these energy levels and improve communication between your cells. The therapy, as mentioned earlier, acts as an immune system booster. This means that the therapy can also help you to manage abnormalities that can develop with your immune system. If you have doubted this therapy, this is your sign to book an appointment and wave pain goodbye!
