NASA PEMF Research
What Does NASA Have to Say About PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy?
Excerpt from Dr. Bryant Meyers Book: PEMF The Fifth Element of Health
"When it comes to research studies, it does not get any better than NASA.
Of more than 10,000 research papers and 2000 plus double-blind studies on PEMF
therapy; none was more thorough and conclusive as the 4-year NASA study led by
Dr. Thomas Goodwin, PhD, on the ability of PEMF to improve the growth and
repair of tissues in mammals.
Without
getting into the technical details of the study, I will summarize and share the
main benefits of PEMF therapy that the study conclusively demonstrated as well
as the exact type of energy, frequency, intensity, and waveform used. The study
was not limited to PEMF therapy, but also to various forms of energy medicine
such as lasers, LEDs, and static magnets. After finding PEMFs were the most
effective in healing and regeneration, Dr. Goodwin and his team looked at many
different parameters such as frequency, waveform, intensity, etc.
What NASA
found was that the best results and greatest efficacy came from Low
Frequency, Low Intensity, and Rapidly varying PEMF signals. Basically, frequencies and intensities closely match what the earth gives us with a
signal that produces maximum healing effects on the body! PEMF—The Fifth
Element of Health pg. 161, specifically.
NASA found
the best results with the PEMF parameters below:
1. Rapid time-varying waveform: Specifically the square wave (sawtooth also fits these criteria)
2. Low
Frequency: 10 Hz (close to the frequencies of the earth)
3. Low Intensity:
~10-200 milligaus (1 - 20 microtesla) which is even less than the strength of
the earth’s magnetic field (33 - 66 microtesla)
Additionally, NASA found that slowly varying (millisecond pulse, sine wave), non-varying (static magnetic), and LASERS had little or no effect. NASA discovered that the benefits of low frequency, low intensity, rapidly varying PEMF includes better healing and regeneration of damaged or disease tissue, greater cell longevity, accelerated cell growth, improved cellular voltage (mainly observed in nerve cells), upregulation of genes related to collagen production, cell restoration and growth.
NOTE: Upregulation is a mechanism that increases the creation of certain gene
products.
This study
is a landmark in proving the efficacy of PEMF therapy on human cells for
healing, growth, and regeneration, specifically human nerve cells. These
findings confirm that the human body needs frequencies and intensities close to
what the earth provides, along with a rapidly varying waveform. Any doubters or
naysayers on the efficacy of PEMF therapy are ignorant of over 10,000 studies
including a multi-million dollar study by NASA.
NASA’s
prototype developed at the Johnson Space Center uses the low frequency, low
intensity rapidly varying waveform.
These guidelines were used in the creation of your HOLOS wearable device: Dr. Rainer Viehweger alongside the engineers at RedHealth has incorporated these NASA study results in all the RedHealth wearable PEMF devices' designs with their magnetic field output in the Micro Tesla range, their Pulse frequency range varying between 1Hz – 100Hz and a rapid time-varying waveform. These are important, detailed technical specifications for any PEMF device to ensure optimum effectiveness and safety.
