Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about PEMF therapy
About the Therapy
-
Not at all. The iMRS I use is completely pain-free — you may notice a very gentle tingling sensation during your session, but that's the most you'll feel. The therapy is totally non-invasive and you don't even need to remove your clothes. Most clients find it so relaxing they drift off to sleep!

EMF therapy is not a cure — and I think it's important to be honest about that. What it is, is a powerful enabler. Apply PEMF regularly and your body has a much better chance of restoring itself to full health and maintaining its natural equilibrium.
Think of it as giving your body the conditions it needs to do what it was always designed to do — heal itself.
There are no known side effects, making it one of the safest complementary therapies available.

Using magnets for healing is nothing new — even Aristotle was a fan! But PEMF therapy takes things a step further by combining magnetism with electricity, a connection that Albert Einstein himself proved to be related.
Therapies like PEMF have been used across Europe and Asia for decades, and biological research into the effects of magnetic waves on the body first began nearly a century ago. So while PEMF may feel new and unfamiliar here in the UK, the science behind it has a long and well-established history.
The technology has simply taken a while to reach us — and now that it has, more and more people are discovering what the rest of the world has known for years.

Every living thing on Earth depends on the planet's natural electromagnetic field — particularly its low frequencies. These frequencies play a vital role in keeping our cells healthy and our bodies functioning at their best.
The problem is that modern life gets in the way. Electrosmog from WiFi, mobile phones and electricity cables, combined with high-rise buildings, cement foundations and rubber-soled shoes, all reduce our daily exposure to these essential frequencies. Over time this deficiency can directly affect our health and wellbeing.
Practical Information
-
PEMF therapy is suitable for a remarkably wide range of people — from two-week-old babies right through to older adults. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, stress, burnout, recovering from surgery or a sports injury, or simply want to feel more energised and well, PEMF can help.
We could all do with a boost sometimes — and PEMF is one of the few therapies gentle enough for the whole family.
However, PEMF therapy is not recommended for people with a pacemaker or other electronic implant, those with epilepsy, or women who are pregnant. If you're unsure whether PEMF is right for you, please get in touch before booking and I'll be happy to help.

Absolutely. The iMRS is made by Swiss Bionic Solutions — the only company worldwide that meets all international requirements for supplying PEMF devices for home use. It's been rigorously tested, is FDA approved and has an excellent safety record.
The therapy is completely non-invasive with no known side effects. It is however advised that people with pacemakers or other electronic implants, those suffering from epilepsy, or women in the early stages of pregnancy do not use PEMF therapy. If you have any concerns please get in touch before booking and I'll be happy to advise.

Sessions are 8, 16 or 24 minutes long — the right duration for you will depend on your health concern and will be discussed before your first treatment.
For your first visit, please allow an extra 30 minutes so we have time for a full consultation. This helps me understand your needs and tailor your treatment from the very first session.
