When areas of a horse's body get compromised by athletic performance, aging, overuse, illness or injury... their cells actually lose their charge. Cellular “injury”, the state of a cell when it is not healthy, leads to disease conditions.
Magnetic fields protect against cell injury by improving circulation, repair processes, energy, and increasing special stress help proteins in the cells. These proteins are used to prevent cell breakdown and wear and tear, as well as help speed recovery from injury.
All energy is electromagnetic in nature, and nothing happens in the body without an electromagnetic exchange between cells. Disruption of this energy in cells causes impaired cell metabolism.
PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field. The PEMF process involves generating and directing powerful, pulsed energy waves toward damaged or injured areas of the horse’s body.
PEMF therapy is delivered by machines that have an electrical current running through a copper coil that creates a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF).
PEMF creates positive energy in horse’s cells which allows for better function. The pulse, which can permeate through the body up to 16”, including through cartilage, muscle, tendons and even bones, can make the membranes of cells more permeable and can cause a detox effect.
When a horse is receives PEMF therapy there may be increased oxygenation and circulation of the blood which can help reduce inflammation in the body. When there is a reduction of inflammation and swelling, there is a reduction of irritation, stress and pain in the body.
Using PEMF on horses can highlight underlying areas of concern as the practitioner scans the horse and areas of sensitivity and or resistance are noticeable. When the signal cannot pass as freely through an area of greater resistance, creating muscle fasciculations, areas of sensitivity can be detected.
Energy is improved and recovery time is reduced as the newly oxygenated blood passes through the body for up to 72 hours after treatment.
Pain is relieved by enhancing the body's ability to actually heal itself.
Performance, suppleness and range of motion are improved by freeing up the cells and reducing the stored inflammation.
Most riders comment on how loose and free the horses feels even after just one session!

PEMF therapy has been found to reduce chronic, damaging inflammation making it beneficial for horses dealing with conditions characterized by swelling and inflammation.
PEMF therapy promotes faster recovery from injuries, wounds, and surgeries by enhancing cellular repair mechanisms in horses.
PEMF therapy helps with the process of extracting and transporting oxygen to all the cells in the horse's body.
PEMF therapy allows the membranes of red blood cells to become properly charged which enhances blood flow, thereby increasing circulation.
PEMF therapy is effective in managing pain associated with various conditions, including musculoskeletal issues, arthritis, and inflammatory disorders.
PEMF therapy creates energy that allows muscles to work harder and longer, and recover more quickly from their work. Muscles that are contracted or in spasm are better able to relax, decreasing tension and reducing the pain caused by spasm.
PEMF therapy can be used preventively or as part of a maintenance program to support the overall well-being and performance of horses.
Regular PEMF therapy sessions may contribute to improved performance in athletic and working horses by maintaining optimal physical condition and preventing injuries.
PEMF therapy supports joint health by promoting optimal conditions for reducing inflammation in joints.
PEMF therapy supports joint flexibility and increases the range of motion, particularly beneficial for horses with stiffness or mobility issues.
PEMF therapt provides a non-invasive alternative to traditional treatments, reducing the reliance on medications and minimizing the risk of side effects.
PEMF therapy aids in the recovery after strenuous exercise or competitions, helping to reduce muscle soreness and speed up the recovery process.
A mild electric-like pulsation is felt over the area being treated and the intensity is always adjusted for individual comfort. It is never painful and can actually feel good and promote short-term relaxation.
This will be determined through your initial assessment. Different problems require different amounts of treatment.
Results are usually immediate. Some riders have noticed a difference within the first couple of steps their horse takes after their first PEMF session. As the blood is oxygenated and circulation is increased, improvement will continue for up to 72 hours after a whole body PEMF session.
Addressing the whole horse using PEMF is beneficial as everything in the horse's body is connected. All tissues, not just the targeted ones, experience improvement by increasing the blood oxygen in the whole body.
Yes, PEMF therapy can be beneficial to the horse on the day of an event, either before or after the event, depending on how your horse responds to PEMF.
