Enhancing Blood Circulation with PEMF For Improved Health and Healing

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Tue, Sep 19, 2023

AMPLIFYING NITRIC OXIDE

One of the major advantages of PEMF therapy is its ability to optimize blood flow. By stimulating the production of nitric oxide1, a vital molecule that relaxes blood vessels and enhances blood circulation, PEMF therapy plays a significant role in improving overall health and promoting healing. Nitric oxide acts as a powerful vasodilator, expanding blood vessels and reducing resistance, allowing for more efficient blood flow. This increased circulation ensures that oxygen, nutrients, and immune cells are delivered effectively to various tissues and organs, ultimately supporting the body's healing process.

These scientific investigations into the effects of PEMF therapy on blood circulation have yielded consistently remarkable results. The studies have shown that PEMF therapy not only significantly increases blood flow velocity but also improves microcirculation, leading to enhanced oxygenation of tissues. One study, in particular, stands out for its findings published in the prestigious Journal of Orthopaedic Research. This study revealed that PEMF therapy can produce a remarkable increase in blood flow of up to 35% in the treated area2.

Why PEMF May Be a Helpful Tool for Stroke Recovery

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Tue, Sep 05, 2023

What is PEMF?

PEMF, short for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy, is a cutting-edge treatment that utilizes electromagnetic fields to stimulate healing and recovery in the body. This non-invasive therapy has gained attention in the medical field for its potential in stroke recovery and prevention. But what exactly is PEMF and how does it work?

PEMF therapy involves the use of electromagnetic fields that are carefully tuned to specific frequencies and intensities. These electromagnetic fields are applied to the body through specialized devices, such as mats or handheld devices, which deliver the pulses directly to the affected areas.

PEMF helps pain, inflammation and injury

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Tue, Jun 06, 2023

Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) have been used in almost every conceivable human illness or malady, including many inflammatory diseases such as arthritis or psoriasis.

PEMF therapy has been associated with pain reduction, and accelerated healing. PEMFs exert these effects by regulating processes involving inflammation and autoimmune diseases, among other biologic actions.

How PEMF Helps Bone Health in a Natural Way

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Mon, May 08, 2023

What is PEMF

PEMF therapy, also known as Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy, or Cellular Exercise, is a non-invasive form of therapy that uses electromagnetic fields to promote healing in the body. PEMF therapy has been shown to have several benefits for bone health. In this article, we will discuss the ways in which PEMF therapy can benefit bone health and improve bone density.

Promotes bone growth and regeneration

PEMF therapy has been shown to promote bone growth and regeneration by stimulating bone cells known as osteoblasts. These cells are responsible for the formation of new bone tissue. PEMF therapy has been shown to increase the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, which can lead to the formation of new bone tissue.

7 Keys for Successful Natural Treatment for Chronic Tendonitis

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Thu, Mar 10, 2016


Tendonitis in any area of the body can be quite painful and debilitating, often interfering with your daily lifestyle.

I often see patients who have tendonitis and the challenge is to help the patient understand the various steps and procedures that need to be undertaken in the healing of this type of injury. Of course there are many different places in the body a tendon can be injured but the wrist, knee, and achilles tendons are the most common ones I have seen. In this blog post I outline a few aspects about tendon construction, tendon healing, and natural methods (drug-free, surgery-free) that I and others have found to be helpful and effective to enable patients to get back to their normal lifestyle.  

Tendonitis refers to inflammation of a tendon, which is the tough rope-like tissue that attaches muscles to bones. Tendons vary in form, and can be rounded cords, strap- like bands or flattened ribbons. [1]

Overuse, injury, and various systemic inflammatory conditions of the body can cause tendonitis. Some medical researchers state that the term tendonitis should be reserved for use only after performing a biopsy and then examining the tissue under a microscope and instead, the term tendonopathy should be used until a biopsy is performed. Regardless of the term used, a good understanding of how to best approach a tendon injury is important.

Foot Pain and Plantar Fasciitis Can be Solved Without Surgery

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Wed, Nov 18, 2015

If you currently have foot pain or plantar fasciitis, or if you have had it in the past - you know how it can totally interfere with your life.

I personally have had pain so bad that I literally could not sleep. Just the pressure of my foot weight resting in an elevated position on a pillow was excruiating. I would not wish foot pain on anyone.

Due to my own issues with severe periodic foot pain, I was compelled to search for solutions that were effective and expedient. My professional work involves standing on my feet most of the day along with walking. I also prefer an active life outside of my office and having foot pain was not something I wanted to try to have with me the rest of my life. 

My search led me to some surprising solutions that totally eliminated my pain and I would like to share them with you.
