Migraines and Headaches OH MY!
Migraines can start out as horrible headaches that lead to nausea and sensitivity to light and sounds. Often it can lead to loss time at work and retreating to bed!
CAUSES OF MIGRAINES
Uneven distribution of blood flow in the brain Abnormal brain activity Hormonal changes Emotional changes Physiological changes, ie. Decreased blood pressureCAN SOMETHING OTHER THAN MEDICATION AID IN RELIEF
You need something to increase circulation to help release the effects of migraines and headaches. There is strong evidence through several studies and clinicals trials that have been conducted that supports the use of PEMF therapy for treating migraines and headaches. Through thousands of double-blind, university medical studies the benefits of PEMF have been demonstrated leading to the multiple FDA approvals of its use. The research is constantly expanding into treating many more chronic conditions and degenerative effects of aging. Results of the research have yielded amazing results regarding tissue healing and recovery too. Did you know NASA uses PEMF to reverse bone loss and muscle wasting experienced by astronauts?LET’S GO BACK TO CAUSES OF MIGRAINES
Uneven distribution of blood flow in the brain - As mentioned above PEMF will increase circulation and open up the blood vessels. Abnormal brain activity - PEMF stimulates the internal organs of the body to include the brain. Hormonal changes - PEMF can stimulate the hypothalamus and pituitary gland which are responsible for hormone production. Emotional changes - In 2006 PEMF was FDA approved for treatment of depression and anxiety. Physiological changes, ie. Decreased blood pressure - There are many other causes of migraines and headaches, but PEMF can help in many ways!FDA APPROVAL
With all this said, guess what happened in 2013! The FDA approved PEMF Therapy for use in the treatment of Migraine Headaches! PEMF complete machines have also moved up from being a Class 3 to a Class 2 medical machine, FDA registered wellness device.RESEARCH
Results of this double-blind, placebo-controlled study demonstrated that the administration of a pulsed magnetic field for less than one hour to headache patients produced significant beneficial effects, as shown subjective patient reports, as well as eeg activity.
