Can PEMF Therapy Help Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

​What is chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS)?
 
Chronic fatigue syndrome is much more than just being tired. It can sap your creativity, inner drive, and it decreases your abilities to move forward successfully in life, socially, at home and at work.

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a serious, long-term illness that affects many body systems. It can be a debilitating and frustrating condition and the cause of CFS currently remains unknown. 

This multi-system disease affects approximately 580,000 Canadians of all ages, according to the Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHR).

Another name for it is myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). CFS can often hinder your ability to do your usual activities. Sometimes it may not be possible to even get out of bed. 
CFS is defined by two major criteria: 

1. Chronic severe fatigue for at least 6 months not caused by a diagnosable disease or relieved with rest and, 
2. At least four other specific symptoms that occur at the same time or after the development of severe fatigue (see symptoms list below)

Other symptoms include: 

·         sleep problems
·         problems thinking, or concentrating (aka “brain fog”)
·         muscle and/or joint pain
·         headaches
·         sore throat and/or sore or swollen glands 
·         flu-like symptoms
·         feeling dizzy or sick
·         fast or irregular heartbeats (heart palpitations)
 
Can PEMF Therapy Help Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? 

PEMF therapy may help relieve the symptoms of chronic fatigue.  It has been shown to help restore energy levels, reduce inflammation and get people on the road back to feeling like themselves again.

PEMF also improves blood flow and increases oxygen to all the cells of the body and can result in better health. Additionally, PEMF helps the mitochondria (the part of the cell responsible for producing energy) function optimally. 

Systemically, PEMF improves blood flow and the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood stream. 

PEMF therapy is a cellular supercharger and can influence all 75 trillion cells in the body in one 20-minute treatment! That said, the benefits of PEMF therapy are magnified through cumulative treatment.  Rentals of PEMF systems are a great way to achieve this.  By having a PEMF system in your home it can be used multiple times per day, day over day to see the fastest road to recovery!
