These fields are safe and non-toxic.10:48 - With PEMF’s, the magnetic fields move in and out of the body, and it’s varying in intensity and time. It’s dynamic.11:06 - Inverse square law. A magnetic field drops off in intensity very rapidly as you move away from the source of the stimulus.11:38 - Why all magnetic fields aren’t bad. EMF’s vs. PEMF. PEMF’s don’t heat tissues. That’s why there is no risk. 15:14 - What happens to our cells when we expose them to PEMF’s? What benefits come from exposure?18:45 - Specifically as it relates to osteoporosis and low bone density how can PEMF help?19:44 - PEMF helps heal non-union fractures.22:14 - PEMF’s decrease osteoclast activity (bone breakdown) and increase osteoblast activity (bone formation)23:44 - What do the research and studies say about PEMF therapy and osteoporosis?27:22 - Study. PEMF’s as effective as Alendronate in treating osteoporosis?29:35 - What Dr. Pawluk has found in his clinical practice by tracking patients with osteoporosis who are using PEMF?30:05 - PEMF is not a standalone therapy.
