Are emotions measurable? I sure can feel them in fact they can shut down my ability to think properly. What’s the science on emotions guys. If we are highly advanced electronic inventions. Wow, what a amazing time to be alive.
This is a hard question. Here is one example: we can not “measure” pain, but we can all easily feel it. This is why a doctor has to ask you to rate your pain on a scale of 1 to 10, because they can not measure it; you have to tell them what you feel. This is different from other things such as blood pressure, which can be measured but actually most people can not feel their blood pressure, which is why it is often called “the silent killer”. This is why no doctor will ever ask you to rate your blood pressure on a scale of 1 to 10. They will simply measure it.
So, it is a technical fact that the ability to feel something is entirely different from the ability to measure it.
I have only been using PEMF for about 1 month but I have already benefited from it in many ways. I have a C5 and an A9, and really get great results from them (as described in my Splitting Wood and PEMF post). I also have a KT Recovery + Wave Pain Relief Device which I have been testing on my self and sometimes my pets. The KT Recovery + Wave reminds me of the Assisi Loop but much much more affordable. The description I found of how it works sounds very familiar (almost verbatim to the Assisi loop description) “KT Recovery+ Wave (KT Wave) is a non-prescription, wearable device that uses electromagnetic pulses to relieve pain. The pulses are called pulsed shortwave therapy (PSWT). KT Wave works by sending non-thermal, low-energy electromagnetic signals into joints, muscles, and tissue”. That phrase “pulsed shortwave therapy (PSWT)” is exactly what Assisi says about their device. The KT Wave gives 250 hours of functionality and then the battery is weak and you toss it and replace it. After my recent adventures in wood splitting, I slept with all the coils from my C5 on, which helped greatly, but I didn’t have enough coils to put some on my traps and they were very sore, so I stuck the remaining KT Wave I had (I gave the other one to my brother to try) on my right trap and went about my day. After about an hour I noticed it felt better so I switched it to the left trap and left it on all day. That side also felt better but still hurt a little at the end of the day. Still it did help. On a side note I had vented my frustration at my wife’s constitution not responding as quickly as I or my daughter’s in my post Attempt to Improve Hip Bursitis, but today finally had success with her, as she had been bothered by a sore rib for several days. I placed 2 coils side by side over the offending area and had her use Omni 8 for a few hours on an intensity of 9, after which she indicated the pain was gone. I am hoping to convince her to use the C5 for at least 4 hours every day for hopefully the next 3 months to see if she can get an overall improvement in her health. Time will tell.
That’s terrific the variable of time (as suspected) made a difference for her. Glad the pain is gone! Thanks for sharing all your findings and experiments!
The pain / discomfort in her rib comes back after after some time (≥ 6 hours), so she needs to stick with it (her biggest challenge) until it is fully resolved. I would guess daily (or nightly) use for at least 3-4 weeks would get her somewhere close and well on her way to resolution of that minor annoyance. I find that the more I use my A9 or C5 on my knee (several years ligament and meniscus injury) the better and stronger it feels.
I think you are exactly correct.
Also, I think the way to view PEMF in general is that it allows normal healing.
But PEMF does not ‘force’ tissues to do anything, and it is not magic.
So it is essential to apply PEMF regularly enough to allow the normal tissue healing and recovery processes to occur, which takes time.
@Bob Yes. I also need to study up more on supplementation, as without the right building blocks healing / progress is slowed. I have a good deal mor to learn about that, but there is so much info here in the Flux Health forum it is overwhelming lol.
I agree: critical knowledge. A lot of people on this forum can give helpful suggestions.
I’ve been supplementing collagen as opposed to protein these days. I also try to eat more of less desirable (bones, feet, organs, etc) animal products where there is more collagen and other vitamins/minerals.
I’m always happy-sad seeing doggos these days. I’m still in grieving. We had to put our dog down in January due to Cancer and old age. She lived up to 15 years.
Yes, I know that pain. We have lost many dog friends over the years. In fact it was a desire to help improve and extend the lives of our animals the led me to finding out about PEMF! yet another way they have given back to us. You certainly have my sympathy for your loss.
I did try to use my M1 device on her hips and legs/foot. She had what I’d assume arthritis or some sort of degeneration which made her limps somedays and her walk robotic.
Would it help if larger coils are made so the generated pulse reaches deeper into the body?
I discuss this at several locations around the forum, so if you want to know technical details you can find those, but briefly:
It’s really not that simple at all. The internal circuit and the coils are tuned to work together properly to get the most biologically effective pulse possible in the largest volume of tissue possible. By making the coils larger, you will change the dynamic tuning of the system and it will not only have less depth of penetration, but the waveform will be distributed less well in the area under the coils, the waveform will be distorted, and it will lose much of its biological effectiveness,
This is all because electro-magnetism is a supremely complex technical field that takes decades to gain an understanding, and almost no human mind is capable of having a good intuitive sense for it.
I am sorry to tell you the truth of it, but electro-magnetism, especially bio-electro-magnetism, is not something that can be easily or briefly explained. In my opinion, anyone who tells you otherwise is just stroking your ego to extract cash from you.
