Is PEMF Right For Your Animal?
PEMF therapy allows animal bodies to function more effectively and promote many potential health benefits. However, there are some instances where PEMF is not advised. Additionally, there are some potential mild and temporary side effects that we want you to know about.
Please read through the information below before booking your first session with us.
Safety Considerations:
Do not use PEMF therapy on an animal that meets any the following conditions:
Animal is Pregnant or there is a chance of pregnancy (the safety of PEMF therapy during pregnancy has not been fully established).
Active Bleeding: PEMF therapy is not recommended for pets with active bleeding or hemorrhaging.
Animal has injuries or concerns of injuries that have not yet been evaluated by a licensed veterinarian.
Animal has colic.
Electronic implanted devices: The electromagnetic field generated by PEMF therapy will interfere with the functioning of these devices, so PEMF is not recommended. Microchips are safe to undergo PEMF.
Cancer: Research on the interaction between PEMF therapy and cancer is ongoing. Consulting your veterinarian is crucial to discuss the potential risks and benefits for your horse’s specific case.
Are There Any Side Effects of PEMF Therapy in Pets, Horses or Livestock?
Research suggests that mild and temporary side effects may occur in some animals, horses and livestock following PEMF sessions.
Sneezing
Shedding
Light to moderate sweating
Coughing
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Runny noses and eyes
These side effects are usually short-lived, resolving within a few hours after a session, and typically do not require any intervention. It’s important to monitor your animals response to PEMF and consult your veterinarian if any concerns arise.
