SHORTER RECOVERY FOR BROKEN BONE HEALING
PEMF therapy was approved by the FDA in 1979 specifically for the healing of
nonunion fractures, which came after a Columbia University study that was
encouraged by NASA,
HOW PEMF WORKS?
Research on the molecular impact of PEMF demonstrates a, b, c, d
• Exposing an osteoblast (a bone-forming cell)
to PEMF activates or generates an electric field gradient across the cell membrane c
• Following this activation, bone cells recognize PEMF with an immediate intracellular response a
• Similar to growth factors (PTH and Insulin), PEMF encourages signalling pathways within minutes b
• When these signalling pathways are activated with PEMF a ,the cells are encouraged to grow, proliferate and differentiate .
