Frequently Asked Questions -PEMF Therapy-

FEEL FREE TO DIRECT ANY QUESTIONS TO US HOWEVER, HERE ARE A FEW QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED FREQUENTLY TO HELP GUIDE YOU FOR NOW 

WHAT IS MAGNAWAVE?

MagnaWave offers the latest in wellness technology through Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields. PEMF is used to cover low energy cells in raw, pure energy. Each cell in a body is actually just like a battery that holds a charge. Their body is electrical and the cells each need a measurable electrical charge to function optimally. In order to maintain good wellness, cells must be doing their jobs. MagnaWave uses PEMF to help support overall wellness to optimize balanced functions.

IS PEMF SAFE FOR EVERYONE TO USE?

MagnaWave machines are not medical machines and do not treat, cure, or heal diseases or their symptoms. You should always ask your veterinarian before using any type of PEMF machine. PEMF machines should not be used by anyone with a battery implanted device, such as pacemakers, cochlear impacts, intrathecal pumps, etc. Magnetic fields are known to interfere with these machines.

HOW LONG HAS PEMF BEEN AVAILABLE?

PEMF technology has existed for a long time, and has been used for a variety of purposes, including seed germination. MagnaWave was founded in 2002, and has been providing an avenue for wellness ever since, using only top-of-the-line equipment and thorough certification training.

WHY HIGH VOLTAGE HIGH INTENSITY PEMF AS COMPARED TO LOW VOLTAGE?

PEMF will pass through the body whether it is of high or low intensity. Every body is built differently, therefore the intensity of one client may vary from another’s. The difference is the amount of charge the field will stimulate in tissues as it is passing through the body.

Higher voltage is more effective when low voltage isn’t enough. High voltage PEMF also produces a sensation that you can actually feel which helps reassure the machine is working.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS DURING A PEMF SESSION?

The blood oxygen is increased, the lymphatic system is activated, and acupuncture points are stimulated. This process reduces pain and inflammation and promotes overall health. The idea of PEMF is to help relieve inflammation. Pain is thought to be caused by inflammation, if we can relieve the pain and swelling, the body can begin to recover naturally.

WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT THE FIRST TIME YOU USE PEMF?

Depending on the current state of health and wellness, you can expect to feel an overall sense of well-being. Just like any other wellness modality, the way their body responds will vary from one to another. There are lots of factors that influence this, including diet, lifestyle and level of physical activity. We advise checking with your veterinarian/Doctor to make sure MagnaWave is right for you.

In some cases, those using MagnaWave for the first time might feel a sense of fatigue. This may be their body’s response to ridding itself of toxins. If they experience detox after a PEMF session, we advise to take in plenty of fluids and have plenty of rest.

HOW LONG DOES A SESSION TAKE?

Normal session time is 20 to 30 minutes for a horse and can vary for livestock and small animals.

WHAT DO I REMOVE BEFORE A PEMF SESSION?

Make sure you check your pockets and person and remove jewelry, watches, cell phones, credit cards and car key fobs. Place them about a foot away from the machine.

WHY PEMF THE WHOLE BODY WHEN THE PROBLEM IS IN ONE AREA?

By increasing the cellular exercise in the whole body, the sensitive area continues to be helped as blood from the rest of the body continues to flow through the area.

HOW DOES PEMF SHOW WHICH AREAS ARE SENSITIVE?

Muscle tissue palpitates in sensitive areas because of cellular exercise. As we like to explain it, the magnetic field will pass through the body, but when there are areas of inflammation, lactic acid build up, or scar tissue, the pulse bounces off these areas causing the movement you sometimes see during a session. 

HOW DOES PEMF SHOW WHICH AREAS ARE SENSITIVE?

Yes, but at the trainer’s and regulations discretion. However, we recommend that you try it ahead of time, since different bodies react differently to a session. We have found that some clients are more relaxed after their session, so they might not have the same edge before an event. Other clients are not affected in that way and are ready to perform. So again we recommend you try it on your client before an event to measure performance and decide for yourself.

CAN PEMF BE USED PRE-EVENT?

Yes, but at the trainer’s and regulations discretion. However, we recommend that you try it ahead of time, since different bodies react differently to a session. We have found that some clients are more relaxed after their session, so they might not have the same edge before an event. Other clients are not affected in that way and are ready to perform. So again we recommend you try it on your client before an event to measure performance and decide for yourself.

DO I NEED TO TAKE TIME OFF AFTER A SESSION?

There is no recovery time. Results are immediate with continued improvement over time with additional PEMF sessions. If out in the hot temperatures or sweating we always reccommend to stay hydrated. 

CAN I GET PEMF IF I HAVE STENTS OR METAL IMPLANTS?

Yes. While the magnetic field will not go through metal it will go around implants to the surrounding tissue.

IS MAGNAWAVE THE SAME AS OTHER MAGNETIC THERAPY BLANKETS AND BOOTS?

Not necessarily. While the technology is similar, the difference is in the delivery method, power, and how they yield a deeper penetration. The higher power of MagnaWave provides shorter session times and quicker results. What the blankets can do in 2 to 3 weeks, the MagnaWave machines can do in 10 minutes!
