Scientific findings confirm that correctly functioning microcirculation is of crucial importance in ensuring a person’s health and physical performance.

In all advanced organisms, blood circulation regulates the nourishment of cells with oxygen and nutrients, the removal of waste products, vital information about hormones and chemical messengers, immune defenses and many other processes. The performance and functionality of every individual body cell and of muscles, joints, organs, glands and the immune system etc. depend on the optimal supply and removal by means of microcirculation.

Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEFM) therapy improves blood circulation (i.e. blood circulation) by improving microcirculation, with noticeable effects. It has a fundamentally positive effect when used for the treatment of diseases. Without a functioning microcirculation, healing is difficult if not impossible.

Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEFM) therapy is a complementary therapy that supports the body’s efficiency and capacity to self-heal. At the same time, it lays the groundwork so that both conventional medical therapies and natural healing methods can work better. It‘s the ideal addition to all known methods of therapy.

Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEFM) Therapy is not a disease-specific therapy. Its effect on the microcirculation and the resulting improvements to the supply and removal of substances to/from the body’s cells allows these cells to produce and supply increasing amounts of energy and therefore in turn carry out their tasks (production) better. This “production increase” and the resulting increased supply to cell products allow the body to reactivate its control cycles, meaning that the body helps itself and can promote the healing process.

• Effects on microcirculation as an essential component of blood circulation
• Effects on the immune system
• Effects on cell efficiency and production (build-up and breakdown of proteins)
• Effects on the antioxidant balance

Because of the low intensity of the magnetic field used to transmit the typical Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) signals, the PEMF therapy can be used with all metal implants (e.g. surgical screws, discs, suture clips).

The use of Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) Therapy after a recent stroke depends on the nature of the stroke in question. In this case, the treating doctor must be informed and consulted.

In the case of older strokes, the application of Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) Therapy depends primarily on the medication prescribed. According to current knowledge, BEMER® Physical Vascular Therapy can be used without any problems in the majority of cases. Please consult your treating doctor.

The electromagnetic fields in the BEMER Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields technology used by Dr. Steven Becker cannot cause any faults to pacemakers or defibrillators, provided that the implant complies with European standard 45502-x for these implants. [Report by Dr. Lampadius (10.25.2012)]

During pregnancy, tumor diseases and other serious diseases that require ongoing medical treatment and medication, the complementary application of PEMF Physical Vascular Therapy should be discussed with the treating doctor.

Side-effects are understood as undesirable accompanying effects such as allergies or bleeding etc. To date, no dangerous side-effects have been detected with long-term application.

Conventional medicine continues to be dominated by mechanical/chemical thinking (surgery and medication treatments). However, Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields Therapy already forms part of conventional medicine as a complementary treatment method. It is currently accepted by specialist medical bodies and is a key topic in medical working groups and a current object of research in a number of universities.

There is currently discussion in medical science circles as to whether Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields Therapy can even perhaps be incorporated into the treatment guidelines for conventional medicine.

The length of therapy is highly dependent upon the severity of the disease, the age of the patient, the duration of the disease and the general lifestyle of the patient. In most patients, the first noticeable therapeutic improvements can be detected within four to six weeks if the basic plan is followed consistently and regularly.

Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields PEMF Therapy is recommended as a long-term application. The positive effects of PEMF Therapy last for a long period of time, but this depends fundamentally on the individual lifestyle of the user in question. The aim of the treatment is the preservation of physical capability and health until well into old age. It is less important how old one is, but rather the way in which one gets old (and with what quality of life).

The perception of the BEMER Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields application differs from user to user. Some users experience a light feeling of warmth or a tingle. Most feel noticeably relaxed and invigorated after the application. In the event of any doubts, consult West LA chiropractor Dr. Steven Becker.

• Drink a sufficient amount of non-carbonated water in order to maintain an optimal fluid level
• Eat a balanced and nutritious diet, and do not eat any raw fruit or vegetables in the evenings. Avoid alcohol and nicotine or keep consumption to a minimum, in order to avoid inflicting dietary-related stresses on the body
• Carry out as much outdoor activity as possible, without putting excess strain on the body (observe an age-appropriate heart rate)
• Introduce vitamins, minerals and trace elements to your diet as required; calf cramps are often a sign of a magnesium deficiency, cramps in the arms or also cardiac arrhythmias may signify a calcium deficiency
• Avoid any stress during the BEMER therapy (cell phones, telephones, television…)

Yes, the BEMER Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields application can elicit an improvement in performance. The increased performance results
from a shorter recovery period, decreased risk of injury and an energy-preserving warm-up. Due to the shorter recovery period, training can be structured differently, leading to an improvement in performance. It has been observed that infections occur less frequently than usual during the training strain.

Yes, you should always inform your doctor. A doctor who is familiar with the BEMER Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields application will always recommend its use as a preventative measure or accompaniment to therapy. Doctors who are not familiar with PEMF cannot express an objective opinion on it. You can consult Dr. Steven Becker for any questions.
