Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) is a non-invasive, painless way to address numerous medical conditions, recovery and wellness goals using a gentle, low-level electromagnetic field to deliver frequency instructions to the body.
These therapeutic electromagnetic energy fields match the natural fields emitted by your cells, tissues, and organs, which has been shown to be measurable by institutions like the HeartMath Institute (Dr. Jessie is a Certified HeartMath™ Practitioner) and others.
The body utilizes the electromagnetic field to transmit information or instructions, perform cellular functions, activate and relax muscles, modulate the release of hormones or neurotransmitters, and much, much more.
BEYOND CHEMISTRY
Our mainstream medial culture focuses on chemistry as the basis of many treatments (namely, pharmacology); however, beyond chemistry (and likely informing chemistry) lies physics and electromagnetic forces directing our bodily functions.
Looking at healing within this phenomenological paradigm, and since our bodies are electromagnetic, there is great potential to elicit a profound therapeutic effect when we work with electromagnetic fields as a primary treatment modality.
"Physics trumps chemistry."
— Albert Einstein
RECOMMENDED READING
Some resources that are highly recommended if you are interested in understanding this perspective (how electromagnetic phenomena influence chemistry and physics) from a scientific lens are:
There are many forms of PEMF therapy -- some can be delivered by a layperson and others, like Frequency Specific PEMF which we utilize at Resonant Frequency Medicine, is delivered by a licensed medical professional who has undergone rigorous training.
WHAT IS PEMF?
Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) is a noncontact, noninvasive, non-pharmacological modality that is used to promote optimal cellular function so that your body can do what it is designed to do organically: heal.
In other words, PEMF jump-starts our body's own innate healing processes, reminding the body of what it has potentially forgotten. We know that the human body is designed to heal itself. We just need to remove the blocks to healing that have occurred from exposures to things like chemicals, toxins, WiFi, 5G, emotional challenges, trauma, cell membrane disruptions, and any of the aspects within our environment (physical or mental) that lead to dysregulation of the system either immediately or over time.
We trust that the body is inherently self-healing, self-regulating, and self-regenerating. When we provide the necessary components for this natural process to succeed and remove or mitigate the aspects that are getting in the way of healing, the body is able to truly rebalance and optimize its natural healing capacity.
ENTRAINMENT
Think entrainment: the magnetic field of the impacted organ or tissue needs a reminder of what optimal function 'feels' like. We infuse the body with the optimal resonance within the magnetic field and the organ or tissue is able to return to its high-functioning oscillation or frequency.
PEMF helps develop and maintain general cellular health and function, and when we pair PEMF with specific frequencies, we are able to attune the natural electromagnetic field of the human body to its optimal resonance in a gentle and noninvasive way.
“You can think of PEMF therapy as a whole-body battery recharger. By using a PEMF therapy mat for just two times per day for eight minutes, you recharge your 100 trillion cells: improving ATP production, increasing oxygenation, enhancing circulation, promoting hydration, facilitating detoxification, and gaining a better overall absorption of nutrients.”
–Bryant Andrew Meyers PEMF: The Fifth Element of Health
ENHANCED PEMF: FREQUENCY SPECIFIC
When we add specific dual-channel frequencies to this whole-body battery recharger, we're enhancing the effects of standard PEMF significantly. This enhanced delivery of specific frequencies can only be done with a practitioner who has specialized training, and at Resonant Frequency Medicine, we take into account your unique body, history, labs, and more to customize a PEMF program that will bring you to optimal health & wellness most efficiently.
PEMF has been studied for over a century for its notable effects on pain and depression, and there is promise for the expansion of this intervention as research continues.
