Different Types of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy Device
The pulsed electromagnetic field therapy device has many proven health benefits to the human body, from reducing pain to helping with depression and anxiety. A pulsed electromagnetic field therapy device can be purchased for personal use, may be used a doctor or a therapist to treat their clients.
There are different types of PEMF therapy devices, so guidance is important to select the right one. PEMF machines vary in the applicator size, coil size, machine quality, warranty, price, features, waveforms, frequency, intensities, customer service. So, what are the different types of PEMF therapy devices, and how do they work?
PEMF Mat
One of the most useful types of PEMF therapy devices is one that comes with a full length PEMF mat. It is a flat applicator that sends bursts of electromagnetic fields into your whole body as you lie on it.
A full-body therapy mat has several advantages to the body, such as providing heightened physical, mental, and even spiritual wellness; decreasing soreness, inflammation, and pain in your muscles and bones; and rejuvenating your body and mind.
Since the machine and applicator targets your entire body, it provides a holistic effect on your overall health. Therefore, revitalising your senses and enhancing your body’s circulatory effects.
How does it work?
Our Exagon Mat, a full-body applicator, comes with a built-in operating function control box and touch screen tablet. The whole body mat measures 67 x23 x 1.5 inches, which you can fold into three segments for portability. With this comfortable PEMF mat, you have the option to lay it on a flat surface such as the floor, an inclined chair or massage table.
This mat has six built-in 9 inch rock-solid copper coils that simultaneously deliver magnetic pulsed PEMF to your entire body. Just like buying a quality sterio sound system, the size and quality of the speaker is important. With PEMF the same applies. Large tightly wound copper coils are key to giving a clear strong magnetic pulse from the PEMF machine applicators.
Heating Mats
One of the most useful types of PEMF therapy devices is one that comes with a full length PEMF mat. It is a flat applicator that sends bursts of electromagnetic fields into your whole body as you lie on it.
A full-body therapy mat has several advantages to the body, such as providing heightened physical, mental, and even spiritual wellness; decreasing soreness, inflammation, and pain in your muscles and bones; and rejuvenating your body and mind.
Since the machine and applicator targets your entire body, it provides a holistic effect on your overall health. Therefore, revitalising your senses and enhancing your body’s circulatory effects.
How does it work?
Most heated mats or cushions use infrared, negative ion therapy, and hot stones. It comes with a handheld controller, and creators specifically designed for the product to fit most chairs and even car seats. Most heating mats do not contain PEMF. A better option is to buy a PEMF mat that also contains Far Infrared so you receive both modalities at the same time. iMRS international supplies this.
Therapy Chairs and Beds
As the name suggests, a therapy chair comes with-in built coils inside the chair. The therapy chair device usually use an analog machine but are quite expensive, up to 10 times the price of a digit PEMF machine. The chair beds are quite heavy so once in a room it is there to stay. The accessories of the chair are loops which can be placed on the body.
How does it work?
A PEMF therapy bed has small copper coils throughout to create the electromagnetic field. A therapy bed is thick and heavy. The bed usually contours to the user’s body and can accommodate up to a 300-pound user. A therapy chair is not suitable for personal use as it not portable and is priced high so out of reach for most people to buy.
Standing Platform
Different types of PEMF therapy devices provide different levels of comfort to their users. As previously mentioned, there are mats, seat cushions, and beds that give you a choice to sit or lay down.
A PEMF standing platform therapy device is ideal for those who want to do their exercises. Usually, this machine is a combination of PEMF technology and vibration therapy. The vibration contributes to the stimulation of the muscles in the body. Apart from enabling the users to have a comprehensive workout, a standing platform also helps reduce muscle fatigue and prevents injuries during exercise.
How does it work?
A PEMF standing platform comes with a connector and a handle at the top that you can grip while standing. Most of these devices have numerous programs, allowing you to adjust the intensity of vibration that best suits your current needs for a vibrating exercise.
Standing platforms comes with a plate-like structure and don’t take up much space in your home. The magnetic pulse only comes out of the platform where you stand. So for a PEMF treatment, the electromagnetic pulse is only targeting the feet.
Wearable Device
Some therapy devices can also be wearable! Some examples of this type is the Healy device in Australia includes wrist bands. The Healy device is classified as a TENS machine, (Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) so Healy device is not classified as a PEMF machine. These hand held TENS machine devices has electrodes that attach on to the skin which sends small electric currents. The current runs along the surface of the skin to block pain receptors.
The person using a Healy device or TENS machine must undress to have the small stick pads placed on to the skin for example the back. On the other hand using a PEMF machine a person can be fully clothed as the magnetic pulse passes through the body and clothing. TENS machines will send electric pulses along the surface of the skin to block pain signals while a PEMF machines supply electromagnetic fields which travel into the body which provides deeper healing.
A Healy machine has an applicator that is the size of a finger nail. A pulsed electromagnetic field therapy device from iMRS International has multiple copper coils that are 9 inches in diameter (22 cm) so more powerful than any other PEMF or TENS machine. Size does matter!
Therapy rings and paddles?
A therapy ring looks like a smaller hula-hoop. The paddles send the electromagnetic fields ultimately stimulating the targeted nerves and cells. The loops are usually controlled by an analog control box for time and intensity settings.
Buying a PEMF device with just rings and paddles is limiting to just spot treatments. It is far better to use a whole body mat.
Applicator Pad
Just like the PEMF mat but smaller, a PEMF applicator helps spot treat different areas of the body. A great therapy for mental stress when using the pillow applicator on the back of the neck and head.
A PEMF applicator pad is a small version of the mat. This sort of therapy device allows the users to apply the electromagnetic fields to a specific area of their body where they feel soreness or pain.
It helps release tension and reduces soreness in your muscles after an intense workout. Moreover, it is also useful by placing the PEMF applicator on your body parts for example, back, legs and knees, hands while relaxing, watching TV or while at your computer.
How does it work?
The iMRS’ applicator pad measures 23 x 13.5 x 1.5 inches, which you can place on any painful part of your body, be it your neck, shoulders, or lower back. It also consists of rock-solid copper coils that control the intensity of the applied field on the entire surface.
