Not at all unlike ultrasound, but still effective. Thanks for the info!
i have. what my gp says, is spondylosis. i have booked for xray imaging. the pain in my left hip is more pronounced than it was 2 years ago. pain to me isa message. getting rid ofthe pain is not the problem. curing the problem is. i am ready to buy one of your machines. i do not know how much they cost. i looked at magnet therapy, but could not find any reliable advice. listening to you, i am prepared to shell out for a device. i live in newquay cornwall . britain. and do not mind taking part in a study. i know that reports could get wayward, but i reckon this would waste time. and i would not even contemplate it. i would like home devise, and i would appreciate, if you can advise on a suitable . cartilage regeneration, is of interest. i would of liked, to listen to you. talk about just plain magnets as a prelude to your presentation on electro magnets. i read somewhere that 12200 gauss is a normal strength for therapy. yet that seems, way high. i put a magnet on my hip, and it made the pain worse. can you say please, what is gauss compared to in electro magnets. . many thanks.
hi @mervynshute,
Your questions sound quite reasonable, but unfortunately they involve electro-magnetic theory that is generally only understood by physicists and electrical engineers. The comparisons you ask for actually are not answerable questions. Here is the problem: everyone understands that you do not need to know how a smart phone works electro-magnetically to just use a smart phone. But fraudulent PEMF marketers play on the ego of potential customers by using complex sounding pseudo-scientific terms to make them feel like they understand something extremely complex. Sadly, this is simply not true, it is not that simple, and unless you are a physicist or electrical engineer, electro-magnetism is way too complex to explain in a forum like this.
but if you really want to know a tiny bit about the physics of electro-magnetism involved with PEMF, I explain this at length, as simply as possible, at many locations on this forum. Just search for “dB/dt”
