Grounding and PEMF Therapy

Have you ever heard of “earthing” or “grounding”?  The concept is quite simple – it’s when your body is in direct contact with the Earth. This means skin touching the Earth without any barriers such as shoes, socks, flooring, etc. In today’s digital age, most people rarely have time to practice grounding.

The Science Behind Grounding

Earth has a mild negative electrical charge. Our bodies tend to build up a positive charge from the electromagnetic frequencies that are all around us – cell phone towers, computers, TV, etc. This slight positive charge creates an internal environment in our bodies that is more prone to disease. More and more research is showing that grounding can help to even out the positive charge with Earth’s negative charge leading to improved health. And that makes sense because while all of the small electronics in our lives can add up to a big impact on our health, the Earth is much, much bigger. And just like the moon moves the ocean, it is not difficult to see that the Earth can have an effect on our bodies.

Grounding has been shown to help with:

Improving sleep

Reducing chronic pain and inflammation

Increasing energy

Relieving muscle tension and stress

Lessening recovery time after injury or sports activity

Normalizing biological rhythms including circadian rhythm.

There are many barriers to finding a time and place to practice grounding.

The weather and terrain aren’t always conducive to walking barefoot outside.

This is where PEMF therapy can be extremely useful. A PEMF device mimics the earth’s magnetic resonance and is similar to grounding but at a much higher level.  When used over a certain period of time, PEMF therapy has been shown to regulate the body’s natural healing ability.
