About PEMF
MagnaWave is used in nearly every competitive equestrian discipline for equine performance enhancement, health maintenance, and recovery. Owners and trainers can generally see and feel an improvement in the way the horse moves after several MagnaWave sessions. MagnaWave for horses is a safe and effective, drug free alternative to keep your horse in optimal health.

What is PEMF for horses?
High powered PEMF devices for horses generate results at an accelerated rate and can be easily adjusted for optimal level of penetration. PEMF promotes cellular exercise, which increases circulation, blood oxygenation, and helps the body recovery naturally, while reducing inflammation, and, relieving pain. Using MagnaWave sends a pulsating charge through tissues to provide energy to large focal areas like joints and major muscle groups. Penetration of the charge can be up to 16 inches into the equine body. Twitching muscles help to identify imbalances, pain or sore muscles that need to be further worked on with MagnaWave. By pinpointing the problem areas, the practitioner is able to work at the source of pain rather than just manage its symptoms. MagnaWave for horses is safe to use and require no sedation.
All energy is electromagnetic in nature, and nothing happens in the body without an electromagnetic exchange between cells. We are all familiar with the electrocardiogram (EKG)and electroencephalograph (EEG) tests, which measure the elec tromagnetic activity of the heart and brain, respectively. When electromagnetic activity ceases, life ceases. Electromagnetic energy controls our chemistry. Disruption of this energy in cells causes impaired cell metabolism, and if our cells are not healthy, our body is not healthy, in whole or in part.
Okay, so...How does it work??
The “action” of a cell occurs at the membrane, which has switches connecting directly to the nucleus (like your keyboard controls what your computer hard drive is doing). As a cell becomes sick, the voltage in the interior of the cell rises. In all sick cells, the membrane electric potential is significantly less negative than normal. This signifies greatly reduced metabolism and energy production, since it takes a lot of the cell’s energy to maintain that charge.
What are some of the basic cell functions?
-
Perform its predetermined functions based on the cell’s type and location in the body.​
-
Eliminate waste
-
Repair and regenerate itself
How do magnetic fields facilitate them?
-
Magnetic fields cause or increase motion of ions and electrolytes in the tissues and fluids of the body.
-
This movement stimulates a vast array of chemical and electric actions in the tissues of the body, helping
-
them to re-balance or heal themselves where necessary All cells need energy to function.
-
Cellular energy requires ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) and is fundamental to all cell and body functions and is necessary to sustain life itself. ATP regulates cell metabolism by transporting chemical energy within our cells.
-
Low ATP levels cause our cells to be sick, and decreases their ability to heal, regenerate, or function properly.
-
Through the increased motion of ions and electrolytes, magnetic fields help cells increase their energy (or
“charge”) by up to 500%.
-
Preserving and restoring the membrane with this energy can make way for a damaged cell to divert its precious energy resources to heal rather than simply stay alive.
-
Additionally, it induces the growth of new blood vessels by stimulating your vascular endothelial cells (vessel inner lining) to release growth factors.
-
This may be one of its mechanisms in its fostering repair of complex fractures (and in healing other tissues)
FAQ's
Why is treatment at the cellular level so important?
Magnetic fields affect the charge of the cell membrane, which allows membrane channels to open. By opening cell channels, nutrients are better able to enter the cell, and waste is more easily eliminated from the cell. This helps to re-balance and restore optimum cell function. If you restore enough cells, they will all work more efficiently. Cells of the same type come together to make tissues, and those tissues come together to make organs. So, by restore-ing or maintaining cellular function, you will, in turn, restore or maintain organ function, allowing the entire body to function better.
Will MagnaWave replace need for medications?
While PEMFs will not cure diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, or cancer, they still can make a huge improvement in overall function and symptom relief, and can be used alongside other treatments, including medication, for even better results. In many cases, PEMFs can be used to replace or reduce pain medications and other anti-inflammatories, but they should not be depended on as the primary treatment without discussion with an appropriate health care professional. They can become a primary treatment once a proper diagnosis an treatment plan are developed and the need for medication is reduced or eliminated.
How often should I do treatments?
Magnetic fields selected for treatment simultaneously provide health maintenance, not just treatment. PEMFs used frequently would be an important part of any prevention or health maintenance program, in addition to any treatment program. Magnetic therapies are usually complementary to other therapies, and they usually enhance each other’s benefits.
What can you do to improve the effects of PEMFs in the body?
Since most of the effects of magnetic fields happen because of how they act on ions, especially calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium, these ions and electrolytes need to be at the right levels in the body. - It is difficult to heal depleted tissues without sound nutrition.
- Supplements may also be quite helpful for magnetic therapy to be most effective. - Many feel that proper magnesium supplementation and adequate amounts of daily water is very helpful to enhance the effects.

Is PEMF like a TENS machine?
With any external electrical stimulation, the current will follow the path of least resistance from your skin to your tissues. That often gives some tissues more current than they require and other tissues less than they need. This is a limitation of external electrical devices and possibly why sometimes they don’t help. However, magnetic fields penetrate through and through, so that your tissues get the benefit of microcurrents generated on site! • With PEMF, the electrodes never touch you. You are bathed in a magnetic field. It turns out that your body is “transparent” to the field. Unlike electricity, which meets resistance, a magnetic field is virtually unaltered going through your body. When the magnetic field pulsates, it generates electrical flow (microcurrents) throughout the distribution of the pulsating magnetic field. These micro currents generate right inside the target tissues. They’re no longer dependent on an unobstructed electrical flow from electrodes on your skin.
