HUGO (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field)
Frequently Asked Questions
The High Intensity, PEMF machine is engineered to restore and optimize the body’s natural healing system. You will feel the pulsation happening as the true pulsed electromagnetic field reaches out and relieves every area of inflammation in the body.
Pain and inflammation are two of the most common conditions treated with PEMF therapies. Both can be categorized as either acute or chronic. The earlier in the process you use PEMF therapies, the faster you will see results.
There are some health problems that cannot be corrected with PEMF therapy alone. One common example is with bone-on-bone arthritis in the knee or hip. In this circumstance, the damage is so extensive and so many tissues are involved that a joint replacement is often inevitable.
Contraindication: High Intensity PEMFs are not recommended for people with the following conditions:
- Pregnancy,
- Organ transplant recipients
- Bleeding disorders
- Stainless steel IUDs
- Pacemakers
- Hearing aids
- Electronic implants/devices.
- Metal implants in the body
- Metal stents/staples
- Metal prosthetics
- Breast implants – do not exceed 12 mins. Do not use directly over implants. Do not exceed 50% intensity,
Magnetic fields also affect the charge of the cell membrane, which allows membrane channels to open up. These channels are like the doors and windows of a house. By opening cell channels, nutrients are better able to enter the cell, and waste is more easily eliminated from the cell.
This helps to rebalance and restore optimum cell function. If you restore enough cells, they will all work more efficiently. Cells of the same type come together to make tissues, and those tissues come together to make organs. So, by restoring or maintaining cellular function, you will, in turn, restore or maintain organ function, allowing the entire body to function better.
We all know that the body ages over time. Maintaining the function of every individual cell at an optimal level every day is an important part of SLOWING AGEING.
One of the most common concerns for people researching PEMF therapy is associated with the negative effects of other EMFs in the environment, and the so called “electro-smog” they create. There are many differences between these harmful EMFs and the therapeutic EMFs generated by PEMF devices.
Magnetic frequencies and waveforms will either amplify or diminish the body’s own signals. Harmful EMFs negatively affect the body’s natural functions while therapeutic EMFs act in supportive ways, enhancing cellular communication and overall health. The balance of the human organism can easily be negatively affected by electromagnetic changes in the environment, and an unbalanced body is more susceptible to disease. EMFs interact with living systems, affecting enzymes related to cell division and multiplication, growth regulation, and regulation of the sleep hormone melatonin (controlled by the pineal gland metabolism.)
The primary differences between harmful and therapeutic EMFs are exposure time, wavelength, and frequency.
