PEMF uses
electrical energy to direct a series of magnetic pulses through injured tissue, and each magnetic pulse induces a tiny
electrical signal that stimulates cellular repair by upregulating a tissue repair protein called «heat shock protein» and also by increasing the uptake of oxygen and nutrients
into tissue.
