FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is AURA?

  Aura offers the latest in wellness technology through Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields. PEMF is used to cover low energy cells in raw, pure energy. Each cell in the body is actually just like a battery that holds a charge. The body is electrical and the cells each need a measurable electrical charge to function optimally. In order to maintain good wellness, cells must be doing their jobs. Aura uses PEMF to help support overall wellness to optimize balanced functions.

• Is PEMF safe for everyone to use?

  Aura machines are not medical machines and do not treat, cure, or heal diseases or their symptoms. You should always ask your physician before using any type of PEMF machine. PEMF machines should not be used by anyone with a battery-implanted device, such as pacemaker, cochlear implant, intrathecal pump, etc. Magnetic fields are known to interfere with these machines. PEMF is also not recommended for clients who are currently pregnant or using chemotherapy.

• Why high-voltage high-intensity PEMF as compared to low voltage?

  PEMF will pass through the body whether it is of high or low intensity. Everyone is built differently; therefore the intensity of one client may vary from another’s. The difference is the amount of charge the field will stimulate in tissues as it is passing through the body. Higher voltage is more effective when low voltage isn’t enough. High-voltage PEMF also produces a sensation that you can actually feel, which helps reassure you that the machine is working.

• What actually happens during a PEMF session?

  The blood oxygen is increased, the lymphatic system is activated, and acupuncture points are stimulated. This process reduces pain and inflammation and promotes overall health. The idea of PEMF is to help relieve inflammation. Pain is thought to be caused by inflammation. If we can relieve the pain and swelling, the body can begin to recover naturally.

• What should you expect during your first PEMF session?

  Depending on the current state of health and wellness, you can expect the body to feel an overall sense of well-being. Just like any other wellness modality, the way the body responds will vary from one person to another. There are lots of factors that influence this, including diet, lifestyle and your physical activity. We advise checking with your physician to make sure Aura is right for your body.

  In some cases, using Aura for the first time might cause a sense of fatigue. This may be the body’s response to ridding itself of toxins. If you experience detox after a PEMF session, we advise you to take in plenty of fluids and get plenty of rest.

• What is the recommended session regimen?

  Normal session time is 10 to 30 minutes. We recommend daily sessions at first. As you experience longer relief times, you will adjust accordingly (i.e., 2-3x/wk.) However, everyone is different. The best recommendation is to listen to your body. Please note: More chronic issues may take you longer to experience relief.

• What do I remove before the PEMF session?

  Remove jewelry, watches, cell phones, credit cards and car key fobs. Place them about a foot away from the machine.

• Why PEMF the whole body when the problem is in one area?

  By increasing the cellular exercise in the whole body, the sensitive area continues to be helped as blood from the rest of the body continues to flow through the area.

• What is the difference between TENs & PEMF?

  The main difference between a TENs unit and PEMF is in their application. TENs unit delivers low-voltage electrical currents to nerves via electrodes on the skin, primarily for pain relief by blocking or modifying pain signals. PEMF involves the use of electromagnetic fields to stimulate cellular repair and promote overall wellness. By traveling deeply into the body, PEMF works from the inside out for a natural, non-invasive lifestyle of wellness.

• How does PEMF therapy work?

  PEMF therapy works by emitting electromagnetic waves at different frequencies in order to stimulate and encourage the body’s natural healing process. It’s believed that the electromagnetic pulses can stimulate cellular repair, increase blood and oxygen flow, and promote overall wellness.

• What are the benefits of PEMF therapy?

  Research suggests that PEMF therapy may offer several benefits, such as reducing pain and inflammation, improving energy levels, promoting better sleep, enhancing bone healing, improving circulation, and aiding in nerve repair.

• Are there any side effects of PEMF therapy?

  PEMF therapy is generally well-tolerated with minimal side effects. However, some people might experience temporary discomfort, such as mild nausea, dizziness, or a change in bowel movements when they first start using PEMF devices.

• Can I use PEMF therapy at home?

  Yes, there are home-based PEMF devices available on the market, like the ones provided by Aura Wellness. These devices allow you to enjoy the benefits of PEMF therapy in the comfort of your own home. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use.

• How long does it take to see results from PEMF therapy?

  The timeline for seeing results can vary greatly from person to person, depending on factors like the specific condition being treated, the intensity and duration of treatments, and the individual’s overall health. Some people may notice changes in a few sessions, while for others, it may take several weeks.

• Does PEMF therapy replace other forms of treatment?

  No, PEMF therapy is typically used as a complementary approach, meaning it is used in conjunction with other treatment modalities. It’s important to continue prescribed treatments and consult with a healthcare provider before making any changes to your treatment plan.

• Are all PEMF devices the same?

  No, PEMF devices can vary significantly in terms of frequency, waveform, intensity, and features. It’s important to choose a device that is safe and registered with the FDA and manufactured in an ISO 13485 facility as a medical device. So-called garage operations are popping up around the world, making unregulated PEMF equipment. These machines are not tested and may not provide the benefits or the safety required.
