How Pulsed Electro-magnetic Field Therapy Was Developed
Electromagnetic field therapy has been in use since the invention of electricity. It was widely adopted in East and Western Europe but its use was restricted to animals in North America until recently. Veterinarians became the first health professionals to use PEMF therapy, usually to heal broken legs in racehorses.
In 1979, FDA approved of using PEMF devices for the treatment of delayed fractures and the use of electrical stimulation in the lumbosacral region.
In 2004, a PEMF Therapy was approved by the FDA as an adjunct to cervical fusion surgery in patients at high risk for non-fusion.
PEMF also been proven to be safe and reliable.

History of PEMF
From Ancient Times to Modern Medicine
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy has a long and fascinating history that dates back to ancient times. While the technology may be relatively new, the concept of using electromagnetic energy to promote healing is not. In this article, we’ll take a look at the history of PEMF and how it has evolved into the cutting-edge medical treatment it is today.
Ancient Times
The use of electromagnetic fields for healing dates back thousands of years to ancient civilizations such as the Greeks, Egyptians, and Chinese. These cultures used magnets and other natural sources of energy to treat a variety of conditions.
Modern Developments
The development of modern PEMF therapy began in the mid-20th century with the work of researchers such as Dr. Robert Becker, who discovered the role of electromagnetic fields in the healing of bone fractures.
FDA Approvals
In 1979, the FDA approved PEMF therapy for stimulating bone growth, and in 1987 for adjunct therapy for treating postoperative edema and pain. In 2008, the FDA approved PEMF for treatment in depression for patients that don’t respond to medication, and in 2011 it was approved for treatment in brain cancer.
From ancient civilizations to modern medicine, PEMF therapy has come a long way. Today, it is a well-established and FDA-approved treatment that offers hope for patients suffering from a range of conditions. With the growing popularity of PEMF therapy products, it is clear that this technology will continue to play an important role in the future of medicine.
