Electronic Smog
What to expect during a treatment: You will be asked to fill out a healthcare intake form. Based on the information you provide, our expert staff will choose the therapy that best suits your personal requirements. You will be led to our treatment room where you will lie fully clothed on a comfortable table with a soft pillow. A treatment will last between 30-40 minutes and you will feel very relaxed. Many clients will often fall asleep or will feel tingling in areas of their body that require healing. This therapy is not painful in any way. PEMF works optimally if you are well hydrated therefore, we recommend that you drink plenty of water before and after each treatment.
PEMF or Pulsed Electromagnetic therapy is a natural non-invasive, safe and effective treatment for pain relief. Its related to magnetic therapy, but instead of a constant field, it provides a magnetic field that changes with time. Low frequency PEMF penetrates deep, lasts longer and heals the body faster than static magnets.
Dr Oz featured PEMF on a show in 2011 for Pain Relief and he heralded PEMF as the biggest breakthrough in pain management he had ever seen.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy is the combination of the geomagnetic field of the earth and its frequencies along with the Schumann Resonance of the Ionosphere. These all encompassing energies of the earth sustain our good health and energize us. They are essential for life…like the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. Our devices duplicate the earth’s natural PEMF frequencies.
More than 10,000 scientific papers have been published about the positive effects of PEMF. The National Institutes of Health have made PEMF therapy a priority for research and Dr. Thomas Goodwin of NASA, concluded that PEMF improves the growth and repair of tissues in mammals.
Without the proper exposure to healthy PEMFs, cell metabolism begins to break down which leads to bone loss, muscle weakness, depressed metabolism, disorientation and depression. Research has conclusively proven that PEMFs are vital for health.
Magnetic and electric therapies are used worldwide for therapeutic healing. Such therapies have an observable action on all biological processes and positive clinical results have been experienced over many decades of clinical use.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy addresses the impaired function of cells, which ultimately improves health. PEMFs deliver beneficial frequencies into cells slowing the aging process and reducing the risk of cell dysfunction.
Benefits of PEMF include:
- reduction in pain and inflammation
- enhanced cellular response
- increased circulation
- increased tissue oxygenation
- improved sleep quality
- detoxification
- regeneration of bone and soft tissue
- muscle relaxation and more
PEMF has been reported by our patients as used for treating: acute and chronic pain, depression, anxiety, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, as well as accelerating the healing time of injuries, increasing energy, sleep disorders, fatigue and it is an excellent anti-aging strategy.
Our health is dependent on the optimal functioning of the more than 36 trillion cells in our body. Our cells produce energy. This energy is used to facilitate every function in our body. Over time and for many reasons such as a toxic environment, stress, illness and the aging process, our cells lose their ability to function at their highest potential. Chronic disease is a result or reduced functioning at the cellular level.
Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy jump starts the healing process in the body at the cellular level. PEMF therapy works on the electrical imbalances of the cell and elevates it to a more normalized condition by improving ion exchange. PEMF therapy influences cell behavior by introducing a magnetic field around and within the cell. This increases the cell’s electrical energy and allows for faster absorption of nutrients and quicker elimination of waste products. PEMF therapy improves metabolic systems, increases blood and oxygen supply, activating and regenerating cells in the body.
The energy waves from PEMF can leave you feeling rejuvenated and could change the way your body copes with pain and healing. The aim of PEMF therapy is to increase your cellular function, so the body can operate as it is meant to resulting in great health!
PEMF therapy is a natural and safe therapy for individuals of all ages, including children, the elderly and even pets*. There are no negative side effects to PEMF use.
A 4 year study done by NASA showed that low intensity, low frequency PEMF was the most effective energy medicine device for healing and regeneration.
PEMF acts as a whole body battery recharger, charing up your 100 trillion cells.
Its like putting little jumper cables on all your cells
Although Pain is by far the #1 reason people invest in PEMF it does MUCH more.
Low Frequency PEMF penetrate deep and go all the way through ...Wind blowing in the trees, goes all the way through
PAIN RELIEF #1 Reason
Healing work in the tissuethan you stop the pain (thats the best way to do it)- Help the body heal itself and the pain will get better.
Numbing and Dumbing the pain with drugs is a temporary Band-aid at best.
PEMF Helps with Pain Relief in THREE Powerful Ways
1) Increases Endorphins
2) Reduces and Temporarily Interrupts the Pain Signal
3) Heals the Problem
Notice there are two mechanisms - The signal creating the sensation of PAIN, and Endorphins which RELIEVE the PAIN.
The Effect of PEMF therapy lies in the fact that the stimulus threshold is raised by hyperpolarization and pain conduction is interrupted for a brief period of time. Due to the fact that the stimulus threshold is raised, the pain must be much more intense to be perceived by the brain. By no means does this mean that the warning signal is eliminated, but instead the chronic pain is relieved. The extent to which an influence on the autonomic nervous system plays a role here remains to be
elucidated.
Endorphins - The Feel Good - Happiness Hormones
Putting a positive spin on pain is partly a matter of making sure your body is producing optimal levels of endorphins (endogenous morphine or natural opiates). These natural opiates are your body’s “pain reliever”. The so-called “runner’s high” is attributed to an increase in endorphins after exercise.
All 100 trillion cells in your body have endorphin receptors, and your brain can manufacture them if the conditions are right. This means your body is getting the 5 essential elements plus exercise and rest, along with having an overall happy and fulfilling life filled with positive emotions.
You don’t need prescription pain medication (except in severe circumstances) for common types of pain. Not only do these pain medications have toxic side effects (especially with the liver and kidneys), they also inhibit your body from making its own endorphins. This is especially true with opiate derived pain medications such as Oxycontin, Roxicodone, Vicodin, Percocet, morphine, opium, etc. Avoid these drugs like the plague! I personally know people whose lives are ruined because of opiate addictions, and once you start, it will be very hard to get off! These drugs are unfortunately one the most addictive drugs you can take, with severe withdrawal symptoms. The good news is that your body can produce its own opiates or endorphins.
Some of the ways to increase your natural opiates or endorphins are exercise, massage, yoga, meditation, deep breathing, deep sleep, low stress, and YES PEMF therapy.
It’s been proven that earth’s PEMF is essential to creating endorphins and additional endorphin synthesis can be promoted by PEMF therapy. This is one of the reasons why PEMF helps immediately with symptomatic pain relief.
Healing, whether bone fractures or soft tissue follow very similar progressive stages:
1. Hemostasis: the blood clots, and blood vessels constrict to halt any further damage to the area. 2. Inflammation: pathogens and cell debris are removed, clearing the way for proper cell growth. 3. Collagen and in the case of bone fractures, cartilage and lamellar bone is deposited and formed. 4. In the final phase these new structures are remodeled to mimic the original formation.
But what does this have to do with PMF therapy? In order to understand how pulsed magnetic fields work, we need a basic understanding of how cells react either when we are in pain or have suffered a bone fracture or soft tissue damage. Each stage deals with cells and how they behave. Pulsed magnetic fields help increase cellular metabolism by positively influencing ion exchange within cells.
The keyword here is positively. What this means is that cells with a low concentration of sodium ions and high levels of potassium ions help maintain cell membrane potential – keeping the rest potential advantageous.
This benefits the healing process in several different ways: it stimulates tissue and increases blood flow, reduces swelling and speeds up hemostasis and inflammation allowing the body to move onto the rebuilding phase sooner. By moving the inflammation stage to the proliferative (soft tissue) or reparative (bone) phase it reduces pain which is most associated with inflammation.
It should be understood that PMF therapy is not a panacea, there are many factors which contribute to the healing process. Centurion Pulsed Magnetic Field Therapy, however, is a safe, painless and drug-free treatment method.
