All cells in our bodies have a life cycle-some are replaced daily, others weekly, others annually, and some only every 7 years.  It is an important aspect of health maintenance that we ensure new cells are "born" into a healthy tissue environment.  It is equally important that old cells die, as they should.  This is the cycle of life, and PEMF therapy can keep the cycle running smoothly.

If you have ever held two magnets in your hands, tried to force them together,and felt a resistance between them, then you have experienced a magnetic field.  That type of magnetic field is produced  by  a static  magnet and is called  a static magnetic field.

​

A changing magnetic field (such as a magnetic field moving through a coil) generates an electric field (which would drive a current in the coil).  This forms the basis for many electrical generators and motors.  Similar to the way that a changing magnetic field generates an electric field, a changing electric field generates a magnetic field.  Since the magnetic field is being generated by an electric current, it's called an electromagnetic field-a physical field produced by moving electrical charges.  PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field.

​

Magnetic fields affect the behavior of any other charged objects in the vicinity of the field.  This is the fundamental basis for their therapeutic use.  Our bodies are electric-every heartbeat generates electromagnetic waves throughout the blood vessels of the body, stimulating tissues at a cellular level.  So, a magnetic field passing through our whole body will have an electromagnetic effect on each of our 70 trillion cells.  They affect the most basic functions of all cells-humans, animal and plant included.
