The quality of life for older dogs, canines with chronic pain, and even young, healthy dogs are improved by pulsed electromagnetic field therapy.

Pet owners employ PEMF therapy because it has many positive health effects in alleviating ailments and promoting wellness.

Applications for pulsed electromagnetic field therapy are numerous. The FDA has given it the go-ahead to treat several disorders in people, and it has the same advantages for animals.

PEMF is frequently used to treat wounds, bone injuries, arthritis, inflammation, and discomfort in dogs. It has been used to treat neurological problems, ligament injuries, and spinal cord injuries. Many older dogs have pain and discomfort, which is also reduced by electromagnetic field therapy.

How does Pulsed Magnetic Therapy work?

PEMF jump-starts and accelerates typical biological cellular responses by using pulsed electromagnetic fields. A small amount of current from the battery is pulsed through a coil to generate the electromagnetic field and start the cellular biological processes. Ions, which are electrically charged particles found in cells, control all biological functions.

The cellular membrane that conducts the vital ions into and out of the cell gets damaged when the body is under stress (due to illness, competition, environmental conditions, or aging) and cannot effectively manage the transport of those ions. These ions and membrane potential are positively directly impacted by the PEMF’s magnetic field, which is immediately set in motion and stimulates them into action.

How does Pulsed Magnetic Therapy help dogs?

It has many valuable benefits, such as:

Treating hip dysplasia and arthritis

One of the most prevalent health issues in senior dogs is osteoarthritis, and over time, hip dysplasia develops in many large dog breeds. Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy can be beneficial for dogs with several chronic diseases. PEMF for dogs has successfully treated conditions like hip dysplasia and arthritis.

These disorders result in ongoing discomfort and agony, and treating these symptoms frequently requires daily medication. In addition to being a secure substitute for giving your dog medication, PEMF for dogs has been demonstrated to offer long-lasting rather than transient relief from arthritis symptoms.

Wound treatment and healing

Studies have shown that PEMF technology improves wound healing 58% faster than wounds not treated with pulse electromagnetic field therapy. PEMF technology might provide your dog with a safe, non-invasive treatment that speeds up wound healing without needing to make direct skin contact.

In dogs, PEMF has been proven to benefit acute and chronic inflammation, post-surgical healing, anti-inflammatory, and pain reduction. These results are on par with or better than NSAIDs without the risk of side effects. It works non-invasively and is drug-free, increasing the body’s anti-inflammatory cascade. PEMF aids in speedier healing of your dog.

Improving overall health

Better circulation, higher cell metabolism, more excellent energy production, and increased endurance are just a few of the health advantages of PEMF for dogs. For pet owners who enjoy being active, pulsed electromagnetic therapy is excellent. Electromagnetic field therapy is ideal for an active lifestyle if you want to run or hike with your dog.

Dogs adore it, too! PEMF treatments calm and relax dogs.

Dogs are lured to the Pet PEMF Mat or coils because the pulses calm them. The FDA has approved pulsed electromagnetic field therapy to treat sadness and anxiety in humans, and it also benefits canines!

Curing degenerative disorders

Degenerative myelopathy, hip dysplasia, and osteoarthritis are these types of disorders. In all breeds, osteoarthritis and DGD are becoming more and more common. There is proof that pulse electromagnetic field therapy can help those people and the underlying health of the cartilage. Studies indicate that the exact mechanism by which PEMF technology reduces inflammation and speeds up healing also slows the progression of arthritis in pets. Magnetic field therapy is a non-invasive kind of care that can hasten recovery from severe injuries and may work as a form of pain management in chronic degenerative illnesses.

Treating neurological issues

Veterinary professionals frequently suggest PEMF for treating specific neurological conditions, including Wobblers’ syndrome, neuropathy, and IVDD, to mention a few. When you use PEMFs on your pet, you will see a difference in their mobility, mood, and energy. PEMFs are excellent for animals with injuries and illnesses like arthritis.

Through the restoration of healthy circulation and the reduction of inflammation, magnetic therapies cure the canine body. The healing process is accelerated by increased blood flow to a damaged area of the dog’s body, which also encourages increased nutrients. Magnetic therapies are a cost-effective, non-invasive, and secure option for use in healing, even though they cannot treat all medical issues.
