Pulsing electromagnetic field therapy for pain

by Reelfaith on Thu Jan 09, 2014 1:19 am

Does anyone here have any experience with this treatment? My wife met a lady at the organic food store a few days ago, She told her about this product and how great it is. She brought it to our home tonight for me to try. I laid on it, my back hurts really bad, for an hour and fell asleep. I woke up and felt somewhat refreshed and my back still hurt but not as much.

Dr. Oz has a Youtube video. I don't think he would endorse junk or a scheme. Any feedback from you guys?

This is probably the Youtube video referenced in the previous posting:

("Dr. Oz on Magnetic Therapy")

For what it's worth, Wikipedia's information for Dr. Oz includes this paragraph:

Oz is a supporter of integrative medicine—combining conventional medical treatments with alternative therapies such as hypnosis, prayer, energy healing, and homeopathy. Oz's wife, Lisa, is described as a master of Reiki, a form of energy healing. Some conventional medical practitioners complain that Oz promotes unproven and harmful alternative medicine practices. Oz has described homeopathy to be "worth considering" for headaches alongside conventional remedies, even though homeopathy is considered ineffective and worthless by scientific and medical communities.
