Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field devices rebalance the body
Clients coming to spas want more than just to look good – they’re seeking experiences that aid wellness, promote athleticism and boost their beauty regime. They also want to prevent ill-health by correcting oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.
I’m a big fan of high intensity Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field (PEMF) devices, which are described as ‘impulse’ or ‘spark gap’ PEMF systems. These are widely used at wellness facilities the world over.
Directing energy waves PEMF is widely studied and used within integrative medicine and therapy. The process involves directing energy waves at the human body. Each of our trillions of cells vibrates at a certain frequency, balancing and continually recalibrating the body. Waves from a PEMF device communicate with each cell, in essence rebalancing our electrical and magnetic fields.
HUGO™ PEMF mats The product I represent via my company, Ozone Therapy UK, is a pioneering nanosecond PEMF wellness device called ‘HUGO™’, from manufacturer Signature Health.
This PEMF device utilises two mats, one above the body and one below. Users lie between these, creating a full-body, high-intensity session of nanosecond PEMF.
High intensity PEMF devices like this utilise higher intensity waveforms, and they’re used for short durations of 10-15 minutes, depending on the manufacturer’s instructions.
They affect the cells deep in the body by disturbing all the frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum at once, and targeting the intracellular structures.
High intensity PEMF is known to stimulate the mitochondria, the cell structures that orchestrate cellular energy production, and to resolve mitochondrial dysfunction which is linked to a wide range of human disorders.
PEMF is also widely believed to improve skin health, and boost collagen production.
Steam/sauna cabinets A further way to offer clients PEMF is with Signature Health’s HOCATT™ ozone bio-chamber sauna which incorporates a high-intensity PEMF setting.
The HOCATT™ units – effectively steam/sauna cabinets – are designed to introduce ozone transdermally via the skin, with outcomes including boosting bodily health and function and also correcting oxidative stress which causes chronic inflammation.
The addition of a PEMF setting to HOCATT™ steam/sauna cabinets, among their many other modalities, is very exciting.
