Question 1

What does high-intensity PEMF therapy feel like?

Accepted Answer

Most patients feel a rhythmic pulsing or tapping sensation in the treatment area. High-intensity PEMF induces muscle contractions at the cellular level — similar in feel to electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). Intensity is fully adjustable. Most patients find it deeply therapeutic rather than uncomfortable.

Question 2

How is high-intensity PEMF different from low-intensity PEMF mats?

Accepted Answer

Low-intensity PEMF mats deliver flux densities of 0.1–300 microtesla — adequate for relaxation and mild circulation support. High-intensity PEMF devices deliver 1–3 tesla or more, capable of inducing supramaximal muscle contractions and deep tissue stimulation. The clinical applications and results are fundamentally different.

Question 3

Is high-intensity PEMF safe with metal implants?

Accepted Answer

This depends on the type, location, and age of the implant. Many titanium implants are compatible with PEMF therapy, while pacemakers and cochlear implants are absolute contraindications. We review your implant history before your first session and adjust placement accordingly.

Question 4

Can PEMF therapy help with pelvic floor dysfunction?

Accepted Answer

High-intensity PEMF is FDA-cleared for pelvic floor muscle re-education in conditions associated with urinary incontinence. At LeCore, we use PEMF as part of a broader pelvic floor protocol that may include chiropractic care, HBOT, and functional rehabilitation.

Question 5

Who is high-intensity PEMF therapy best for?

Accepted Answer

High-intensity PEMF is well-suited for athletes managing soft-tissue injuries and recovery, patients with chronic pain or inflammation, postpartum patients addressing pelvic floor dysfunction, and high performers optimizing cellular energy and circulation. Our doctors assess your case during the Discovery Path intake.
