"Don't Buy Any PEMF (Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Field) Device Until You Read These Reviews" My name is Bryant Meyers and I have been r esearching energy medicine for 15 years. I have a Masters Degree in Physics and quit my job teaching Physics to pursue studying, researching, testing and trying many of the energy medic ine devices on the market. I truly feel energy medicine is the medicine of the future and the days of "Star-Trek" like medical devices are already becoming available. Remember the tricorder on Star Trek? My $250,000 Journey in Energy Medicine I not only researched but actually tried about $250,000 worth of equipment; everything from ionic footbaths(Q2,Aqua Chi,EB Pro,IonCleanse) to cold lasers(Terraquant) and infrared therapy devices (warp 10, lumenphoton,saunalite, infrared saunas like clearlight,sunlight, and therasauna) to scenars(RITM, Dove) to radionics machines to rife technologies(GB4000, Perl,BeamRay, energywellness), whole body vibration machines(over 20 models tested), zappers(terminator,ultimate,hulda clark), ed skilling devices (photon sound beam, photon genie, etc) to chi machines, soqi beds, migun beds, active air machines (airnergy, valkion, active air) water ionizers(6 models tested), light and sound machines, and many others including Eagle Research, Biophoton Analyzer,QXCI/SCIO plus more... but my favorite is...Pulsed is... Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Therapy (PEMFT) Machines. Machines. I honestly feel PEMFT is the best researched and most effective of ALL the energy medicine devices I have tried, period. B elow are my experiences and reviews of 10 of the most researched and popular PEMF therapy d evices available today (These reviews ar e not necessary ranked in order).
My Experiences and Reviews of the Top 10 PEMF Devices... 1. MRS 2000 Frequency:
.5 - 25 Hz Sinusoidal w/ Sawtooth Carrier Signal Waveform (full body mat), squarewave on pad and probe.
Intensity:
5 - 70 uT
Cost:
$2895.00 (Home) $3670.00 (MedSet)
Includes:
computer, full body mat, small pad and probe (MED SET ONLY)- Light-Sound Machine optional
I give the MRS 2000 (MRS stands for Magnetic R esonance esonance Stimulation) the top spot because most importantly it worked the best for me. I noticed better sleep the first night and now since I have been using it for over a year, and I can honesty say it has been the #1 most effective device I have tried i n helping me to feel healthy, pain free and energetic again (after ten years of chronic fatigue and constant pain). And it helped clear up a serious dental infection. Actually, it is really the ONLY PEMFT that really helped me with both my long standing health issues and more recently a serious d ental infection. Also, is it is THE CLOSEST to Nature in frequency and intensity. That is, the earths
magnetic field is at 40 uT (microtesla) and the MRS uses intensities very close to this strength. It also has six individual coils where most other brands only have one. AND, the MRS uses weak pulsi ng fields in the frequency range of .5 to 25 Hz. Again, the naturally occuring pulsed field on the earth i s the Schumann resonance and the first two major harmonics are 7.83 and 14.2 HZ. The MRS uses these harmonics plus mill ions of frequencies in this range. Also of note is that Klaus Pontzik proved that the earths polar frequencies are about 11.8 Hz. And consider the brain state frequencies from .5-30 Hz. Interestingly there has been research showing the body can onl y absorb frequencies roughly in this range (called the Adey Wi ndow 6 -20 Hz). And further Zimmerman showed using super sensitive magnetic detection devices that Reiki healers emit from their hands pulsed magnetic frequencies in this range with the peak being 7-8 Hz. The MRS 2000 additionally contains a biorhythm clock so you run the appropriate program for the time of day. So you are energized earl y in the day and relaxed in the evening. No other PEMF has this option. Conclusion, the MRS 2000 is my top choice for BEST PEMFT because of its effectiveness, research, company, and it is hands down the closest to nature. "Comprehend and Copy Nature"...Thats what the MRS 2000 does beautifully.
Most Effective Best Research Contains the powerful applicator "probe" Only Model with a Biorhythm Clock Intensities Close to Nature Frequencies Closest to Nature, Brain States and what the body can absorb SIX individuals coils giving strongest fields at the feet and weaker towards the head (Some brands use one coil running throughout) Only Unit with the option to add a light and sound machine integrated to the unit
My #1 Choice in PEMF
2. Bemer 3000 Frequency:
Complex Sinusoidal Waveform @ 33 Hz
Intensity:
3.5 - 35 uT
Cost:
$3400 Bemer 3000 Plus
Includes:
computer, full body mat, small applicator box
The Bemer 3000 Plus is currently my number two pick for a PEMFT device. It has solid research is close to nature (though not as much as the MRS) and boasts many great testimonials and positive feedback. But, although it has good research and like the MRS, uses weak intensities that are close to nature, the Bemer 3000 is running at a frequency of about 33 Hz. This is outside of the range of frequencies that the body can optimally absorb and us e, but still close. Also the Bemer only has ONE coil running throughout the machine which is why you can roll it up so easily (which I did like). I have met with the US headquarters in Maitland, FL and they are very nic e people, but, for me the machine did not perform up to my ini tial expectations. I used both the Bemer 3000 plus and MFA applicator (over $5000) for 3 months and honestly I received some benefit, but not nearly what I was expecting. I bought the MFA for my dental issues and it helped only slightly. The MRS 2000 applicator probe wa s much more effective and better priced.
Although it did not work that well for me, I rate this as my #2 pick based on the research and positive feedback from many others. But of the half dozen people I have talked to that have tried both the Bemer and the MRS, all of them prefer the MRS, including a clinician that worked with both machines in a c linical setting in Germany. Now, Bemer claims that its complex waveform outperforms saw tooth, square wave and other geometries, but my direct experience is that it does not work as well as the MRS 2000 which uses a saw tooth carri er wave with thousands of sinusoidal frequencies between .5 and 25 Hz (on the full body mat) and a square wave on the pad and probe. Also, the mat on the Bemer is not as comfortable (though it is more portable a nd the applicator that comes with the machine does not compare to the applicator probe on the MRS 2000.
Good Research Intensities Close to Nature Frequency a little high, but close to nature Only one coil, which limits results applicator not as effective as mrs 2000 probe
3) QRS Quantron Frequency:
3-1000Hz Sawtooth Waveform
Intensity:
4-40 uT
Cost:
starts @ $2950 -- add $295 for pen applicator
Includes:
Control Unit, Full Body Mat, Local Applicator Pad. Applicator Pen extra.
The QRS is a well known and researched system from Germany that was introduced in the US about 10 years ago. OK, I owned the QRS back in 2003 and personally it did not work very well for me. The intensities are in a good range (40 uT), but the frequencies go up too high up (to 1000hz). This is outside the biological window of frequencies that the cells respond to. I have not tried their current unit, which claims to have some improvements but upon inspecting the machine, specs, etc, it does not look that much different (fundamentally) to the machine I tried 6 years ago. AND the frequency still goes up to 1000 Hz... BUT, the QRS also has good research and uses intensities close to the earth. Additionally, it is recommended by some of the top researchers in PEMFT. As a side note, when you buy a QRS, they offer very good support and personal training with a top researcher.
Good Research Good Support Intensities Close to Nature Frequency to high on most settings
4-7) Papimi & Other Similar High Energy PEMF Devices PEMF-100/Magnapulse~Magnawave~Magnacharge(MG-33) Frequency:
1-30Hz
~2,000,000 uT Intensity: (40,000x earth's field) Cost:
$20,000 - $60,000 (Papimi)
Includes:
Control Unit, loop applicators and great support.
The PEMF/Magnapulse/Magnawave (same machine), and Magnacharge (MG-33 or Maggie) were engineered after the Papimi became banned in the U.S. They were designed smaller, safer and more affordable than the Greek predecessor (Papimi). These papimi-like machines are VERY expensive starting at about $20,000. They use VERY HIGH intensity coils shooting "bursts" of pulsed magnetic fields for just microseconds. They are not to be used everyday, but rather for acute problems and only intermittent use for chronic situations. Don't get me wrong, I think these machines work and work very well. I have heard some really incredible testimonials, but agai n I would only use them in acute situations li ke injuries, etc and only intermittently on chronic problems (n ot on a day to day basis). Personally, I think these machines should be used in clinics under direct supervision because of the high intensities involved AND NOT used l ong term. The MRS 2000, Bemer 3000 and QRS are better suited for day to day use and long term use.
8)
Ondamed
®
Frequency:
.1 - 32,000 Hz
Intensity:
500uT-50,000uT
Cost:
$25,000 (w/training)
Includes:
computer, software, training, neck applicator, area applicator
I have not actually tried the Ondamed but I have talked to several people who have and the device receives mixed reviews. Some got results, some did not, but it i s certainly clear that a $25,000 price tag makes it not very accessible for home use. Also, it requires a lot of training and understanding in finding the correc t "pulse" of the person being treated. Here is the summary provided by the manufacturer: "The Ondamed is an Electro-Magnetic Impulse Frequency Device that allows the Healthcare Provider to detect weakness/disorder in patient's body instantly by pulse feedback method. The Ondamed gives the health care provider a "look into the patient's body" and undetected or underlying problems for patient's complaints and pains can be discovered, the Healthcare Provider follows his initial exam by choosing the proper frequency treatment. The gentle non-threatening treatments can be appli ed according to the Ondamed Therapy Instructions. " But in spite of its price, difficulty of use and mixed reviews, it is recommended by some notable personalities and credible researchers and physicians. It also has very good research to back it up.
9) Magnopro Frequency:
2-1000Hz
Intensity:
1-136 uT
Cost:
$1890.00
Includes:
Control Unit, Full Body Mat, Local Applicator Pad. Applicator Pen extra.
The Magnopro is made in Australia and was introduced 5 years ago. The machine is priced well, but for me it remains untested and of questionable quality. I have talked to a few distributors that sell the machine and the consensus is that it is of lower quality than the MRS 2000, QRS and Bemer 3000. And I find this quote on their website a l ittle concerning: "It is recommended that individuals who are more sensitive to pulsed electromagnetic fields and who have complicated health conditions use the QRS. The Magnopro is a better choice for less complicated health problems, athletes or those who are pursuing a preventative health lifestyles." So basically they are recommending another brand for more serious health conditions? Also, several of the top distributors of the QRS also sell the Magnopro and each one I talked to recommended the QRS highly over the Magnopro.
************************************************ Conclusion: I sincerely hope you find these reviews helpful. I want to make it clear that these are just my opinions based on my own personal research and experiences. PEMF Therapy is the best researched and most effective of al l energy medicine devices, so any of the machi nes listed here will give you results as they all have good research...
