DIG,
Very sorry to hear that you sustained such injuries. I would say overall that you are doing the best things already, so far as I know. Use the devices for as long as you can, every day.
This is an example why it is necessary to understand how science is conducted before trying to interpret a scientific paper:
- when applying treatments to an animal in a laboratory, it is sometimes necessary to restrain the animal. This is true for some approaches to PEMF treatment, for example. But laboratory animal use guidelines limit the amount of time you can restrict an animal in any given day. Therefore, what scientific papers often report is this:
- Number of allowable hours a treatment could be given to a constrained rat.
which obviously has nothing to do with: - Optimal time duration for voluntary use by a human.
So, I always advise: do not think that an experimental protocol that is reported in one scientific paper is “optimal” for any clinical application.
Nonetheless, people fail to understand this, so they end up constraining themselves in many unnecessary ways.
My opinion: use your low-power PEMF systems as much as you can, as long as you can, every day. From the clinical reports that I have seen, this should result in healing at a rate 2x to 3x faster than you would expect without PEMF.
