What is the MicroPulse IV? It is a portable, pulsed electromagnetic field generator that comes with two magnets. Place one magnet under your mattress and use nightly. The other magnet is used for more local problems. Place it on your arm, leg, or back – where you are experiencing pain. Place it under your pillow for headaches.
When turned on, the magnetic field pulses at a frequency (there are 12 frequency settings) set by you. The lower settings are for relaxation – the higher settings are for alertness.
How the MicroPulse - Pulsed Electromagnetic Therapy works: The MicroPulse IV pulsed electromagnetic field generator is a low-intensity, easy-to-use device that creates less than 1 Gauss of magnetic power (equal to that of the earth’s magnetic field), which makes it safe to use, yet has produced effective results.
Place the air core electromagnet between the mattress and the box spring. The steel box spring mattresses are said to help conduct the magnetism over the entire area. For those with serious sleep problems, use over the weekend and sleep as long as you can to correct you sleep deficit. Some individuals have not had a good night sleep for many years and may need a couple of weeks to catch up.
Different settings are used for different purposes, one for sleep, and another for recuperation strength and stamina. Remember, your brain will begin to mimic the frequency of the MicroPulse IV - that is the key to the success of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy. All physical and mental functions are controlled by electromagnetic fields produced by the movement of electro-chemicals (ions) within the body. The introduction of a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) to an area helps restore the normal electromagnetic balance. Once the balance has been restored, the body can more successfully perform the functions required of it.
