Commentaar:
Wordt middels veel (Rare) Apparaten verkocht als behandeling tegen pijn, wat door sommigen ook soms als dusdanig wordt ervaren.
Vaak wordt er veel gesuggereerd aan werkzaamheid, terwijl zelfs de werking tegen pijn niet zo vast staat als reclame wil laten geloven.
Geef er dus zeker niet meer aan uit dan u als pijnverlichting daadwerkelijk denkt te ervaren. Bijvoorbeeld eerst huren en nooit zomaar kopen.
De aanbiedingen zijn vaak gecombineerd met ergerlijke misleidingen over in balans brengen van celmembranen etc. . Wees dan extra op uw hoede.
ADVIES:
Sla AETNA na op de huidige stand van zaken:

Aetna considers high-frequency pulsed electromagnetic stimulation (also known as therapeutic magnetic resonance) experimental and investigational for all indications, including any of the following (not an all inclusive list) because its effectiveness has not been established.
Treatment and prevention of osteoporosis
Treatment of acute post-operative pain and edema
Treatment of fibromyalgia
Treatment of knee osteonecrosis
Treatment of lateral epicondylalgia
Treatment of mechanical neck disorders
Treatment of neuropathic pain (e.g., painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy)
Treatment of osteoarthritis
Treatment of scaphoid fractures
Treatment of soft tissue injuries
Treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome
Treatment of wounds.
Slechts een paar met name genoemde uitzonderingen kunnen enig PEMF-nut hebben.

Pulsed electromagnetic fields—which induce measurable electric fields —have been demonstrated effective for treating slow-healing fractures and have shown promise for a few other conditions. Relatively few studies have been published on the effect on pain of small, static magnets marketed to consumers [1]. Explanations that magnetic fields "increase circulation," "reduce inflammation," or "speed recovery from injuries" are simplistic and are not supported by the weight of experimental evidence [2]

Summary and Conclusions
Our systematic review demonstrates that the number of randomized, controlled double-blind clinical trials on whole- body PEMF treatment is low and there are only few studies investigating similar health outcomes. The trials showed a high variability in terms of magnetic flux density, signal type, frequency, duration and number of treatment sessions. Effects on pain reduction were inconsistently observed, for other outcomes only individual studies were available.
Based on the small number of trials and given their heterogeneous findings the evidence for therapeutic effects of whole-body PEMF applications is insufficient. The sporadic observations of therapeutic effects have to be confirmed in high quality studies before the use of PEMF mattresses can be recommended. While acute adverse effects have not been reported, health risks occurring after long-term application have not been studied so far and are thus of concern.
