Treatment

PEMF Therapy

PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field. Devices that utilize PEMF technology emit electromagnetic waves at different frequencies in order to stimulate and encourage your body’s natural recovery process.

PEMF works on the cellular level of your body. The walls of healthy cells have positive and negative magnetic charges. These charges are required to exchange ions carrying chemical elements your body needs to function, like calcium and potassium. Over time your cells age or get injured, and they lose their magnetic charges – and with them, the ability to exchange ions. Symptoms like inflammation, fatigue, and pain are caused by damaged cells with low charges. PEMF technology targets the affected area and restores cells’ healthy electromagnetic charges.

PEMF is available at the Neil Riordan Center.

PEMF can help with:

  • Acute and Chronic Pain
  • Inflammation
  • Increase circulation, oxygenation, and cellular activity
  • Increase range of motion
