1 PEMF Therapy BENEFITS OF PEMF THERAPY Content Source: PEMF 5 th Element of Health, by Bryan Meyers.

2 Top 8 Benefits 1. Stronger Bones 2. Endorphins and Pain Relief 3. Better Sleep and HGH secretion 4. More Energy ATP 5. Better Oxygenation and Circulation 6. Improved Immunity 7. Relaxation & Stress Reduction 8. Nerve and Tissue Regeneration

3 1. Stronger Bones A low frequency Sawtooth PEMF signal has been shown to stimulate the osteoblast cells in the bones to produce bone matter. The mechanism for this is what is called the piezoelectric effect.

4 Piezoelectric Effect The piezoelectric effect is a phenomenon produced in crystals and bone substances whereby a mechanical pressure produces an electrical current. This electrical current to the bones causes them to strengthen. PEMF therapy directly generates electrical currents via electromagnetic induction. A changing magnetic field creates an electric current. So PEMF directly induces microcurrents, which have been researched and proven to stimulate the osteoblasts into creating healthy bone material Bone Regeneration options traditionally used by doctors. Now PEMF can achieve similar result with non-intrusive approach.

5 Bones Healing & Prevention PEMF therapy is so effective for healing and strengthening the bones that it is FDA approved for that purpose. PEMF therapy, along with weight bearing exercise, diet, and rest can also assist in preventing osteopenia and osteoporosis.

6 2. Pain and Endorphins Endorphins is our body s natural pain killer that work by blocking up the transmission of pain.

7 2. PEMF and Endorphins PEMF is essential to creating endorphins and additional endorphin synthesis can be promoted by PEMF therapy. PEMF generates microcurrents to run through the neural pathways, which reduces the signal needed to create the feeling or sensation of pain. Less signal = Less pain perception g PEMF Increase Endorphins Synthesis

8 You can forget PEMF, but don t ignore exercise EXERCISE increases ENDORPHINS and endorphins makes you happy!

9 3. Better Sleep It s important to emphasize that the body HEALS, REPAIRS and REGENERATES itself during deep sleep. During deep sleep your body creates new cells. You need at least 6-7 hours of sleep per night, ideally around 8 hours. HGH and Melatonin are produced during deep sleep and both of these hormones are known for their anti-aging properties. PEMF therapy promotes deep sleep, thus recharging your body and giving you more energy during the day.

10 3. Sleep, Melatonin & PEMF Pulsing magnetic fields stimulate the production of Melatonin in the pineal gland. Melatonin is one of the most important hormones for sleep and anti-aging. Melatonin secretion starts and stops based on circadian rhythm. Modern lifestyle may disrupt this sleep cycle and causes sleep problems, impacting proper amount melatonin during your bed time.

11 3. Sleep, HGH & PEMF PEMF PEMF therapy also helps with the production of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) in the pituitary gland. HGH is another vitally important hormone for sleep, rejuvenation and longevity.

12 4. More Energy - ATP Energy Fuel ATP When a high-energy phosphate bond is broken and transformed to ADP, the breakage of that bond releases an electron in a high-energy state. That electron is the ESSENCE of energy that drives the biological process. ADP

13 4. PEMF, Energy & ATP Research shows that weak PEMF signals in certain biological windows (0-30 Hz) increases the activity of key enzymes needed in ATP synthesis and utilization. PEMF enhances all the channels, pathways, and delivery of the essential elements needed to create energy: oxygen absorption, hydration, assimilation, circulation, and energization of the cellular pump (TMP or transmembrane potential). All this comes together in the Krebs cycle in the mitochondria to produce ATP

14 5. Better Oxygenation & Circulation The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply oxygen to the blood. This occurs between alveoli (small cells in the lungs) and red blood cells in pulmonary capillaries The primary function of the circulatory system is to deliver oxygen and nutrients TO THE CELLS and remove waste products FROM THE CELLS, to the organs of elimination.

15 5.1 PEMF & Angiogenesis Angiogenesis is the physiological process involving the growth of new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels. PEMF helps with the formation of new blood vessels and improved microcirculation at the capillary level. This is one of the most exciting facets of PEMF research, because improved circulation lies at the heart of healing, regeneration, nutrient delivery, detoxification and our overall health

16 5.2 PEMF & Nitric Oxide PEMF therapy has been proven to increase Nitric Oxide in the body. Nitric Oxide is a gaseous messenger molecule formed in the inner lining of the blood and lymph vessels. It signals surrounding smooth muscles to relax, thus resulting in vasodilatation and increased blood flow.

17 5.3 PEMF and Oxygenation PEMF therapy helps on many levels to improve oxygenation of the cells. The key is enhanced vascularity and microcirculation, and also helps with the primary uptake and binding of oxygen to haemoglobin. PEMF therapy opens up the alveoli and increases the amount of blood into the lungs for greater oxygen uptake and utilization.

18 5.4 PEMF & Blood Viscosity 4. PEMF therapy lower Viscosity and Stickiness of Blood (Rouleau effect). It increases the net charge on the cell, the red blood cells will all repel each other. The blood itself becomes less viscous (has a lower surface tension) and the surface area increases for better oxygenation.

19 There are 60,000 miles of blood vessels in the human body. That s enough to wrap around the world 2 ½ times

20 6. Improve Immunity All the previous benefits directly and indirectly enhance the immune system, namely oxygenation, circulation, and ATP production. Because PEMF therapy increases the voltage of the cells as well, it increases the ph and provides an unsuitable environment for virus, bacteria and parasites. There are 5 main components to a healthy terrain a) Optimal voltage or ph b) Oxygenation c) Circulation (of both blood and lymph) d) Glucose Level e) Temperature

21 7. Relaxation & Stress Reduction Life is a delicate balance of activity and rest, relaxation and stress. Our central nervous system (CNS) mediates the stress and relaxation in the body with what is called the sympathetic and parasympathetic response.

22 7. PEMF & Relaxation One of the great benefits of PEMF therapy is that it assists the body in relaxation, repair, and healing. It will shift your body into a more parasympathetic mode if you are overstressed. It will energize, invigorate, and stimulate your body for optimal performance. responsible for stress response. PEMF has been shown to significantly lower cortisol levels and create a balance in autonomic functions. Cortisol is the primary hormone

23 8. Nerve & Tissue Regeneration The four year NASA study done by Dr. Goodwin and his colleagues along with dozens, perhaps hundreds of other peer reviewed studies have shown conclusively that PEMF therapy helps to heal, repair, and regenerate tissue (not just shut off pain). More precisely, the body knows how to heal itself; it just needs the essential building blocks and energy to do so. PEMF supplies the energy AND facilitates the transport of all the essential elements of life.
