PEMF Treatments Available at the Ohm Zone

Hugo

High intensity

A 12 minute treatment that can be applied to the whole body or to specific areas that feels like a pulsing sensation.

Uses:

  • Acute pain reduction

  • Athletic recovery

  • More stimulation of muscles and nerves to enhance connectivity throughout body

  • Targeted therapeutic sessions

Safety Considerations

  • Not recommended for people with electronic implants in the targeted area

  • Not recommended for people with any sensors in targeted area

  • Should not be used on or near pacemakers or implants

  • Should not be used near any electronics

Purewave Pemi

low intensity

A 10-30 minute treatment that consists of charging the cells in the whole body. A subtle, but powerful device, the PEMI is extremely beneficial to the cellular processes, like oil to a car.

Uses:

  • General wellness, relaxation

  • Sleep improvement

  • Mild pain relief

  • Gentle support for circulation

  • Long-term daily use

Safety Considerations

  • Very safe for most people

  • Rarely causes side effects

  • Should not be used on or near any electronics

    • Osteoarthritis (OA): Multiple systematic reviews and meta-analyses conclude PEMF significantly reduces pain, stiffness, and improves function in knee OA patients, with effects seen in short and potentially long term.

    • Shoulder Impingement: Studies found PEMF effective for reducing short-term pain and improving both short-term and long-term function.

    • Low Back Pain: Research suggests PEMF can relieve pain in mechanical low back pain, though benefits might be less pronounced when added to standard care, and more studies are needed.

    • Fracture Healing: PEMF therapy has been shown to accelerate fracture healing and reduce pain in patients with certain fractures.

    • Mechanism: PEMF appears to work by reducing inflammation (e.g., inhibiting TNF-α, IL-6) and promoting tissue repair, partly by activating specific cell receptors and pathways.

    • Sustained Effects: Some studies note that pain reduction can persist for weeks or months after treatment ends. 

    • Bone healing: Good evidence supports PEMF for helping heal certain types of fractures, and some devices are FDA-cleared for this use.

    • Evidence is still emerging: check out the many published studies online

    • Trauma treatment: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37510998/

  • Generally considered safe for most people. However, PEMF should be avoided by:

    • Individuals with pacemakers or implanted electronic devices

    • Pregnant people (as a precaution)
