The benefits that pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) have on the body has been studied vigorously. Thousands of studies demonstrate the cellular and biological effects PEMF therapy provides.
These cellular and biological impacts occur throughout the body. PEMF therapy is an effective treatment for a multitude of chronic and acute conditions. Four general benefits of PEMF therapy that provide beneficial effects for many of these specific conditions are improved circulation, reduced inflammation, reduced pain, and increased tissue healing.
Each of these overarching benefits works in different ways to heal the body, increase cellular health, and boost overall wellness.
Improved Circulation
All cells have natural charge. When cells are damaged, they don’t hold this optimal charge. When this happens in red blood cells, they end up clumping together, slowing circulation. Magnetic fields passing through the red blood cell restores the proper charge. These cells can then separate from each other, boosting circulation.
PEMF also increases chemicals contained in the walls of blood vessels that cause those vessels to dilate. This improves blood flow through the vessels and increases the number of oxygen tissues receives.
Good circulation is important because it keeps tissues healthy by providing the nutrition and oxygen they require while removing waste produced in these tissues. Proper circulation helps tissues heal and regenerate, and reduces swelling and bruising resulting from the injury.
Reduced Inflammation
Inflammation is a healthy, natural process designed to repair damage to cells by increasing blood flow and “good” inflammatory cells. When injury or infection occurs, inflammation is a necessary, desired effect. However, inflammation is supposed to be a short term response. When the process goes on too long, it’s called chronic inflammation, which is behind a host of health concerns, including chronic pain.
Research has demonstrated that PEMFs can reduce chronic inflammation by regulating pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokine secretion during the inflammatory response. A 2019 review of research published in Bioelectricity confirmed the anti-inflammatory impact of PEMFs on mesenchymal stem/stromal cells and macrophages.
T cells that linger too long can prevent healing from trauma-induced injury. The presence of T cells in chronic inflammatory diseases keeps the cells in a diseased state, leading to uncomfortable symptoms. Eliminating excess T cells can reduce the impacts of inflammation, speeding healing and reducing the risk of these chronic diseases. Studies have shown that PEMFs act upon T cell membranes and key enzymes in the cells to prompt the death of aged T cells.
Adenosine production plays a large role in the inflammatory process. If A2A receptors aren’t functioning properly, adenosine production drops, and chronic inflammation can result. PEMFs stimulate these receptors, boosting adenosine production to promote anti-inflammatory actions. One study showed that PEMFs applied to the surface of neutrophils, which have abundant A2A receptors in their membranes, significantly increased the binding of adenosine to the A2A receptor1. This study highlights the importance of using the right intensity to reduce inflammation with the use of PEMF devices.
Reduced Pain
PEMF devices used regularly are a highly effective pain management tool, without the side effects or potential for addiction common with conventional pain management treatments.
Pain is caused by damage to nerve networks that are stuck in an inflamed state. These networks send incorrect messages to your brain which can result in perceived pain even when tissues themselves are no longer damaged.
PEMF therapy can be used to manage pain from musculoskeletal disorders such as arthritis, strains and sprains; neuropathies; fractures; osteoporosis; and many other conditions. Treatment with PEMF devices is effective for acute pain, prompting healing both in the tissues where pain begins, and chronic pain through brain entrainment, which helps correct faulty pain signals.
Enhanced Tissue Healing
Because magnetic fields pass entirely through the body, including bones, they can reach damaged cells anywhere. When cells are damaged, your body systems can’t function properly.
Uncomfortable symptoms are the result of cellular damage. Treatments that don’t address the source of the problem (the cell damage) may temporarily alleviate symptoms but won’t promote true healing. PEMF therapy works at the cellular level to enhance the healing of tissues rather than simply masking symptoms.
PEMF therapy stimulates the tissues, allowing cells to produce the energy required to regenerate. By restoring natural charge to the cell membranes, channels open up inviting nutrients in and expelling waste more efficiently. Tissues are made up of cells, and organs are made up of tissues. Therefore, restoring cellular function heals tissues, which improves organ function and allows for optimal functioning in the whole body.
The Value of Ongoing PEMF therapy
These four benefits are the cornerstones of good health. Together they address many of the issues that lead to decreased quality of life. PEMF devices, used regularly, are a valuable preventative tool.
When minor damage to cells is addressed quickly, more serious damage can be avoided. Because disease can take a long time to develop, by the time symptoms are present extensive treatment may be required to reverse the damage. This can lead to time-consuming, expensive office visits indefinitely.
Investing in a PEMF device for home use is a convenient, cost-effective way for the whole family to receive ongoing preventative PEMF therapy, whether proactively to prevent disease or when addressing serious conditions already present.
Many issues lurk deep within the body, requiring high-intensity treatment for healing. The strength of magnetic fields diminishes the farther away the fields are from the source. For general health maintenance, pain management, or problems close to the surface (like superficial wounds), low to medium intensities are adequate.
TeslaFit devices are versatile machines that have both low and high-intensity settings. This makes TeslaFit PEMF devices an ideal choice for home use due to the range of possibilities they offer for all members of the family (even pets).
