Anyone want to discuss PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy?
I have been doing various daily PEMF treatments with homemade devices for the last 6 months, and have been really pleasantly surprised with the results.
Mainly used the PEMF treatments for early onset dementia symptoms, so I was interested in brainwave entrainment, reducing inflammation, and increasing circulation. The results have been very positive with improvements in short term and long term memory, processing, word finding, fatigue, and just how my head/brain feels. I know these are all subjective measurements/results, but the results have been too dramatic for me to ignore and shrug it off as just placebo. I also discovered that PEMF is very helpful to reduce/eliminate bodily aches and pains, ED (yep!), BHP symptoms, and getting to sleep.
Not sure how the technology interacts with the human body to bring about such positive results, but somehow it helps cells to improve circulation, reduce inflation, and signals the cells to act. Just a few milli Tesla within a window of frequencies is all that is needed, and this is easy to generate with a homemade device.
Commercial PEMF devices are quite expensive ($1,000s). Fortunately it’s not difficult or expensive to make an effective device yourself. For about $75-$100 you can make an effective PEMF device if you are not afraid to learn how to do basic soldering, simple electric circuit wiring, and some simple DIY skills like turning coils of magnet wire and wrapping electrical tape around them.
Lot’s of good research for PEMF over the last 30 years, it’s proven to be safe and versatile method of treatment, and noninvasive.
As alpha has mentioned, we’ve had some discussions on this in the past. Just go to the Search button in the top right corner of the screen and search on PEMF, or just click on this search link: Search results for 'PEMF' - Rapamycin Longevity News
He has a youtube channel, search for PEMF by Steeve. There are plans on the Patreon there to make a basic 4” 100 Turn coil that generates 10 Gauss and uses 10 Watts very cheaply, there are videos that show how to make the coils and do the wiring, etc. This setup can provide effective PEMF home treatments to various parts of the body, and is in alignment with the Bob Dennis devices. On Bob’s Micropulse site he lists the frequency sequences for his devices, and all can be duplicated at home. The Steeve site isn’t organized very well but if you are persistent it’s all there, including wiring diagrams. I have made coils from 2” to 8” that generate from 10G to 50G, bipolar, 1HZ to 150KHz, for various therapies I am trying to achieve. Check out the site, I would be happy to answer any questions.
Bob Dennis is probably the most authoritative person today on PEMF therapy. You won’t be able to duplicate his devices 100% but close. The features of his devices include:
-unipolar and bipolar signals
-superimposed signals
-adjustable frequency
-adjustable magnetic field strength
-adjustable time
-frequency/signal sequences
You can duplicate all of these features at home but not in exactly the same way BD does with his products.
Steeve has plans to make a full body mat if that is what you were interested in. Right now I am making a “torso” mat that lays against the backrest of a couch so I can get treatment from neck line down to waiste line while sitting on the couch watching tv Lol
