Does PEMF Help Nerve Damage

You're on this page, reading all these words and easily connecting and understanding them. While this seems like an automatic process that's happening flawlessly, there is a whole network of things working in the background to make it happen. Do you know what plays a major role in all this? Something you don't give much credit to and often take for granted? It's none other than your nerves!

And like every other cell in your body, nerve cells are just as prone to damage and wear. However, unlike normal body cells, nerve cells are comparatively very difficult to repair and heal, which has brought medical science time and again to research better ways to treat nerve damage. We, the medical staff at Healthyline Outlet are contributing just as well to this research.

Fortunately, with the help of PEMF therapy, nerve damage repair has become a magical possibility! Yes, you read that right! Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields Therapy (PEMF) can help in neuroregeneration (the process of nerve regeneration) and is one of the main reasons for this therapy's usage.

What Is Nerve Damage?

To explain nerve damage, it's important to know the basics of the human nervous system first. A human's nervous system is the network of nerve cells (neurons) that allows the transmission of electrical signals (messages) to and from various organs in the body. This system is divided into two parts:

●   Central Nervous System (CNS) – including the brain and spinal cord

●   Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) – including the spinal nerves + the cranial nerves

Now, similar to all the other organ systems in the body, the nervous system, and its divisions are also capable of experiencing damage and injury due to various reasons. This damage/injury is collectively grouped under the term "Nervous System Disorders." Some examples of nervous system disorders include TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), PNI (Peripheral Nervous Injury), etc. These disorders are not very rare, so it's very important to seek appropriate and better treatment for them, especially due to the catastrophic consequences of these disorders on a person's health.

Is Nerve Damage Treatable?

In a word, yes. Damaged nerves can sometimes be healed/repaired/regrown by a process known as neuroregeneration. However, neuroregeneration is far more complicated than simple cell repair. Also, there is a difference between the extent, speed, and mechanisms of nerve regeneration of the CNS and PNS.

The traditional methods of treating nerve injury are via medicines, physiotherapy, and surgeries. Comparatively, PNS nerve injuries show a better response to treatments than CNS injuries.

All the information we've provided regarding nerve repair so far is with regard to the traditional treatment options discussed above. However, PEMF therapy is an entirely different ball game that has shifted the way nerve regeneration has been treated in the past. With the use of PEMF therapy, nerve repair is not only possible but is very sustainable and wholesome.

Using PEMF Therapy For Nerve Damage

As we've asserted above, PEMF therapy is a great tool for treating nerve damage. Where all the other methods of treating nervous disorders fall short, PEMF therapy emerges as a ray of hope for patients whose entire life has been catastrophic and miserable due to nerve damage's consequences.

All the medical professionals that are associated with the field of neuroregeneration, including physical therapists, chiropractors, orthopedists, neurologists, etc agree that PEMF therapy is an effective solution for nerve damage repair. They have started including PEMF therapy as an integral tool of their treatment regimen.

There are a lot of nerve-related (neurological) and associated issues that arise from nerve damage that PEMF therapy has been found useful. These issues include:

●   Spine pain

●   Sciatica pain

●   Cervical pain

●   Multiple sclerosis

●   Arthritis

●   Ruptured/herniated disc

●   Stroke

●   Parkinson's disease

●   Etc.

There are specialized PEMF devices installed in the clinics of these medical professionals as well as in wellness centers, rehabilitation centers, and senior care centers. Not only this, people even buy portable and handheld PEMF devices to use at home according to their convenience and specific health needs.

Research Supporting PEMF For Nerve Repair

Using PEMF therapy for nerve repair allows significant relief from nerve damage symptoms. There are a few types of research that support this. One such research was carried out by Thomas J Goodwin, a PEMF scientist from NASA, which suggested that applying 10Hz of PEMF therapy to nervous tissues boosted nerve regeneration to 400%.

Final Word

PEMF's effectiveness for nerve repair has been found to be exceptional according to all the data available till now, although more research is undergoing on the subject to further assert it.
