Pemf

[Misky1951]

I see TV Healthcare is offering Pulsed Electromagnetic Filed Therapy. Has anyone in TV Healthcare tried this? I did try PEMF for a short time. I thought it might do some good with wrist tendonitis and general muscle soreness from playing sports. But it didn't seem to help. Sine I am a member of TV healthcare, I thought I might try it for a longer period.

I've not tried it...hadn't heard of it actually but googled it after reading your post. On Wiki (yeah, I know) it tells what it is. I'm thinking TVH wouldn't utlilize it "unless" there have been some vailidity of findings to it. You, perhaps didn't use it long enough so it may be worth a try. Is this offered at the Specialty Clinic?

It's offered in the regular clinics. Right now I think the Pinellas clinic is the only one that has the machines.

Villages Health does give a talk about about pmf, check with them to see when the next one is.

I asked my Villages Health doc' about this and he said a couple of his patients have tried it and found it helps them for the conditions that they had.

It's not a therapy recognized by medicare or insurance so you will have pay for it. You can get some free sessions just by asking asking and then pay for each session or buy the machine itself and use it at your leisure at home.

It was brought into Villages Health by the Audiology department at Villages Health.
