Many clients come to Energize Your Life while recovering from a broken bone, a sprained ankle, surgery or a C-section. PEMF is not a substitute for that medical care. Here is how cellular exercise can fit alongside it.
PEMF can be used as complementary wellness during recovery, alongside the care plan from your doctor, surgeon or physiotherapist. Research on pulsed fields is strongest for bone healing, with mixed results in other areas. Our Restore (10 hours) and Regenerate (20 hours) programs offer structured blocks of sessions over 8 weeks.
- Always follow your doctor, surgeon or physio first. PEMF is an add-on, not a replacement.
- Bone healing is the most researched area for pulsed electromagnetic fields.
- Get medical clearance after surgery, and tell us about implants.
- Restore and Regenerate programs give 10 or 20 hours within 8 weeks at reduced rates.
Complementary means “alongside”, not “instead of”
Your recovery plan should come from your medical team: rest, movement, physiotherapy, medication or follow-up scans as they advise. Cellular exercise is something you can add if your doctor is comfortable with it. It is a quiet hour of rest with a gentle pulsed field, not a treatment that replaces anything.
What research shows about PEMF and healing
The clearest research history is in bone. Studies from the 1970s explored pulsed fields for fractures that would not heal, and later reviews describe how pulsed fields can influence the cell signalling involved in bone repair. For joint conditions such as osteoarthritis, systematic reviews report some benefits for pain and function, but results vary and higher quality trials are still needed.
These findings come from clinical devices and study protocols. They are not a guarantee of results from any particular wellness session, and we never promise outcomes.
Who books our recovery programs?
Clients often tell us they are recovering from:
If you have had recent surgery, metal fixation or any implant, get clearance from your surgeon first and read who should not use PEMF.
How the Restore and Regenerate programs work
| Program | Hours | Rate per hour | Timeframe |
|---|---|---|---|
| Restore Package | 10 x 1 hour | $88.50 inc. GST | Within 8 weeks |
| Regenerate Program | 20 x 1 hour | $80 inc. GST | Within 8 weeks |
| After 20th session | 1 hour | $75 inc. GST | Recharge every 2, 3 or 4 weeks |
The programs are designed so sessions are close together. The quicker the hours are completed within the 8 weeks, the more consistent the routine. See current pricing on our sessions page, or read how often to have PEMF sessions.
Making a plan with your health team
- Tell your doctor or physio you are considering PEMF.
- Bring details of surgery, implants and medications to your first session.
- Keep up your prescribed exercises and appointments.
- Notice how you feel and share it with Nancy and your health team.
Frequently asked questions
Can PEMF heal a broken bone?
PEMF does not replace medical fracture care. Research on certain clinical PEMF devices for slow healing fractures goes back decades, but cellular exercise at Energize Your Life is offered only as complementary wellness alongside your doctor’s care.
How soon after surgery can I have PEMF?
Only once your surgeon or doctor has cleared you. Bring details of the surgery and any implants to your consultation.
Can I do PEMF and physiotherapy at the same time?
Many people combine complementary wellness with physiotherapy. Keep your physio informed and continue your prescribed exercises.
How long do I have to complete a recovery program?
Restore (10 hours) and Regenerate (20 hours) programs are completed within 8 weeks.
