I've been exploring adjunct therapies for the pain I experience. I get a lot of joint pain from tendonitis and torn rotator cuffs. So far PT has only made it worse.
I came across one PT who uses pulsed electromagnetic field therapy in conjunction with her hands-on approach to PT. She has treated other neuro conditions but not ALS.
The two most popular units are Bemer and iMRS. If you buy one for home use they are multi-level marketing products which sends up a red flag.
I've done a lot of research on the technology but was wondering if any of you have had experience with PEMF. From what I gather the main therapeutic outcome is increased circulation.
It's so tempting to just pop another Oxy and forget about it but when I'm no longer moving around, I can see issues with opioids (constipation, for one)
Any of you PALS or CALS heard of it?
