Purpose:

Our goal with PEMF is to reduce inflammation.  By doing this we can alleviate cell dysfunction and bring cells back to a homeostatic state.  Cell dysfunction can be caused by sepsis or systemic inflammatory conditions.  It disrupts ion transport (sodium/potassium pump; waste out/energy in), therefore if the cell doesn't have energy it can't perform it's job. By using PEMF we can try to normalize the cellular environment by reducing inflammation; this allows the body to try and heal itself.

Quote From the Active Spine and Joint Institute in New Jersey:

"​PEMF therapy offers a wide range of benefits, including:

1. Enhanced natural recovery process: PEMF therapy supports and accelerates the body's natural healing and recovery mechanisms.
2. Cellular dysfunction correction: By addressing cellular dysfunction, PEMF therapy promotes optimal cellular function and overall wellness.
3. Cell recharging: Through the stimulation and exercise of cells, PEMF therapy helps recharge and energize them, boosting your natural energy levels.
4. Improved athletic performance: Athletes can benefit from PEMF therapy as it enhances performance, reduces recovery time, and supports injury prevention.
5. Reduced inflammation and pain: PEMF therapy has been shown to be effective in reducing inflammation and pain, providing relief for chronic conditions.
6. Faster injury recovery: This therapy aids in the healing process, helping you recover faster from injuries and improving overall mobility."

FDA Approved Treatments:

The FDA has approved the use of PEMF therapy for :
        - Healing non union fractures (1979)
        - Supplementary treatment of post op edema and pain (1987)
        - Muscle stimulation (1998)
       - There have also been new treatment approvals as recently as 2011. 

Program Options 

Maintenance:
​ every 2 weeks and or monthly 

Rehab:
3x week, bi-weekly or weekly depending on the injury 

Performance: 
*** Please note***
This is a high voltage (macrocurrent) modality cells become excited due to the high voltage.  So performance recovery sessions may be shorter the normal, in order to minimize the potential for fatigue to their system/muscles during a show.  

 *****Please Note*****  In any case, vet approval will be required before I will work on the horse. ​
