Does PEMF Therapy Really Work? With Dr. William Pawluk #363

Dr. William Pawluk is THE foremost authority on the use of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) in North America. Dr. Pawluk is a family physician with a practice near Baltimore, Maryland, and has had training in acupuncture, homeopathy, hypnosis, and bodywork. His goal is to emphasize that there is very good science to support the use of PEMFs across a wide spectrum of health conditions and physiologic functions.

I’ve experienced great outcomes with PEMF therapy for recovery, and I’ve been using it since 2009. As PEMF gets more buzz these days, there’s a lot of information to sift through... And although PEMF devices can be extremely effective, they’re also an investment - and there’s quite a few on the market that don’t work as well as advertised. I wanted to get to the bottom of it... and so I sought out a TOP authority.

In today’s episode, you’ll learn:

How to use PEMF for treatment for multiple illnesses and issues.
Tips to support optimized health, and how different PEMF frequencies work in the body.
How to choose a PEMF device that will work well for you and your health needs.
