Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy
PEMF therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses pulsed electromagnetic fields to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. It involves applying intermittent, low-frequency electromagnetic pulses to living tissue to promote cellular function and overall health.
PEMF therapy is considered a non-invasive, safe, and effective physical therapy with a high tolerance and low side effect profile, according to ScienceDirect.com.
How it works
-
PEMF devices generate electromagnetic fields using coils of wire called solenoids.
-
These pulses penetrate deep into the tissues and cells, influencing cellular function and health.
-
One proposed mechanism of action involves the acceleration of calcium ion binding to calmodulin, which stimulates the nitric oxide cascade, leading to vasodilation and increased blood and lymphatic flow, thus aiding healing.
-
PEMF may also modulate inflammatory processes by regulating the secretion of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines.
-
This process can enhance cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain.
