PEMF for treatment of Osteoporosis - Is it effective?

This device is by prescription only and lasts one year. It is the OrthoFix PhysioStim for the shoulder. I will text my OrthoFix rep on Monday to ask about the gaus rating. I will also ask her about mats. I wish there were mats such as you described powerful enough to help our bones readily available and proven safe. I am so thankful for this device. By the way, it was not uncomfortable or intrusive. The medical field in the US is primarily using PEMF for delayed or non-union fractures instead of maintenance to improve bone health.

By the way the unit I purchased seems to be a copy of the Pulse unit manufactured in the USA. Those units are for both humans and equine and sell for around US$20000.

Yes there are pemf mat units available but most are insufficiently powered to help with deep seated issues like osteoporosis so you should avoid those. I believe one that would be suitable is manufactured by I tech in Italy. They manufacture a number of pemf units but the one you should consider is the Lamagneto X. By memory its price is UK pounds 1035. They claim and distribute literature that it is suitable for osteoporosis and other deep seated issues. I would have purchased that myself but they don't send to Australia but USA should be fine. I in fact purchased a Chinese pemf unit through AliExpress, they are a more powerful unit with a varying cost around A$3500 depending on the merchant, mostly Chinese,but I noticed one merchant was in Chicago
