pemf back pain

Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, or PEMF therapy, is quickly becoming a popular treatment for people suffering from osteoarthritis, chronic back pain, and side effects of past injuries or surgeries. Using a mat, pulsepad, or small handheld device, our physiotherapists in Glendale can direct targeted magnetic energy pulses to specific problem areas across your body. If you’re considering PEMF therapy, take a look at these benefits:

Improves Mobility and Range of Motion

Routine and consistent sessions of PEMF can improve your mobility and range of motion. This makes it an effective treatment for patients who are recovering from surgery, an accident, or an illness, or who have chronic pain. 

Reduces Pain and Inflammation

PEMF can reduce pain and inflammation and enhance circulation. As it enters the skin, it reaches deep within the tissues to the bones and muscles, allowing oxygen, nutrients, and minerals to flow freely to damaged muscles, joints, and tissues. 

Promotes Healing and Rehabilitation

Over time, PEMF can stimulate the body’s natural healing processes and restore injured muscles. PEMF is also an excellent counterpart to physical therapy, as it assists in rehabilitation after an injury or surgery.

Minimally Invasive and Low-Risk

PEMF directs small amounts of energy towards targeted regions of the body using a small, handheld magnetic device. Using this device is minimally invasive and doesn’t require incisions, surgery, or injections. It is a very low-risk procedure with almost no chance of negative side effects. You can immediately resume your normal daily activities after each session.
