Full Transcript Introduction to PEMF and the Summit Guest 0:01 You have to have the nutrients. 0:02 You can't fix something that needs calcium or that it needs proteins or it need fats. 0:08 If you don't have those basic substrates in place, then the body or the brain in this case does not have equipment or tools that need to be able to do 0:17 the fixing. 0:18 Welcome to the PEMF Effect, where breakthrough science helps take control of your health. 0:24 I'm Dr. 0:24 William Pollack, and I am here to guide you in tapping into the power of PMS therapy for recovery, vitality and total body wellness. 0:33 From overcoming chronic pain, optimizing brain health, boosting energy and aging with strength, this podcast is your path to cutting-edge solutions for 0:44 lifelong well-being. 0:45 If you're ready to move beyond symptom management and tap into your body's natural healing ability, you are in the right place. 0:52 Let's dive in. 0:54 Today's episode is a previously recorded session from a summit where I was a guest speaker. 0:59 Welcome to this episode of the Reverse Alzheimer's Summit. 1:02 I'm your host, Dr. 1:03 Heather Sandison. 1:05 I'm really excited to introduce you to my friend, Dr. 1:08 Bill Pollock. 1:09 He's an M.D. 1:10 and a holistic doctor near Baltimore, Maryland. 1:13 And his previous academic positions at Johns Hopkins and the University of Maryland included training in acupuncture, nutrition, 1:20 herbs, energy medicine, homeopathy, hypnosis, bodywork, and lots of other therapies. 1:26 But he's landed on PEMF as one of his favorite tools for helping people heal chronic disease. 1:34 He's also written a great book called Power Tools for Health, and this year, Supercharge Your Health with PemF Therapy. 1:42 So I'm excited for him to explain what PmF is to begin with and how it relates to Alzheimer's and the brain. 1:48 Bill, welcome.
EMF vs PEMF: Key Differences 1:50 Thank you very much, Heather. 1:51 I really appreciate it. 1:52 Look forward to our chat today and hearing about your adventures. 1:57 Oh, thank you. 1:58 So it's how we PMFs get confused with EMF. 2:02 so there's pulsed electromagnetic frequency and then there is electromagnetic. 2:07 Can you help us understand what the difference is and if we should be nervous about either of them? 2:14 I would generally say we probably shouldn't be Right? 2:21 Who needs that state? 2:23 That's right. 2:24 Agreed. 2:25 You don't want to worry about it. 2:26 But you know, if you do a PMF therapy, then you don t need to worried about. 2:30 Nice. 2:31 Right. 2:31 Unless you happen to stand right in front of the microwave tower that's transmitting huge wattages, right? 2:36 You're right there, Right in from of it? 2:37 Well, okay, maybe. 2:40 But the point is that they are different and they're confusing. 2:44 So EMF stands for Electromagnetic Fields. 2:48 And a lot of people do what you just did. 2:50 It's not frequencies. 2:51 They just assume it's frequencies because, you know, frequencies, because that's what 5G is, is frequencies so that we can, 2:58 most people say frequencies but it is electromagnetic fields. 3:02 and I don't call them electromagnetic field. 3:04 I call the environmental magnetic fields in their environment. 3:10 They're designed for a whole lot of different purposes than pulse magnetic fields. 3:14 So EMFs are designed For communication. 3:18 Right, they're not designed. 3:20 For therapy. 3:23 As a result, what happens is we get confused then. 3:25 Now, PEMF is very different. 3:28 EMFS are broadcast into the environment. 3:31 They are sent out like uh light waves like radar like um uh television signals and radio signals that broadcast 360 all over the place and that means that 3:44 they are basically what we call an open loop they go out into space they're distributed i'm sorry about this um are you having it Electromagnetic fields 3:58 coming at you. 3:58 These are a way that I don't worry about it. 4:02 I'm going to put it on airplane mode. 4:04 So you may have to chop this little section out. 4:07 Basically, then, EMFs are broadcast. 4:11 There's one important characteristic about EMS too. 4:14 They tend to be high frequency. 4:16 And I thought I had silenced this. 4:22 What is going on here? 4:26 I can't hear them, Bill. 4:28 You can hear that? 4:29 No. 4:30 But I know it's distracting for you. 4:32 Well, if you can here them then I hope that nobody else can. 4:38 Anyway, OK, so. 4:42 So. 4:43 EMF stand basically are high frequency. 4:46 High frequency is not good. 4:48 We use high-frequency in medicine. 4:51 To burn tissue. 4:53 The coagulate tissue to get rid of warts, to destroy nerves in the back, that's called radio frequency. 5:03 And EMFs are basically like radio frequencies, extremely high frequencies. 5:06 What that means is those wavelengths are extremely short and they're absorbed by the body. 5:12 That's the principle behind a microwave oven. 5:16 We are cooking stuff. 5:18 So EMS, basically microwaves, cook. 5:21 When you take a cell phone and you put it to your ear, you're cooking. 5:27 And you notice when people take the cell phone away from their ears, their ear are often bright red, especially the longer it's been there. 5:34 The other ear turns a little more red because of reflex vascular changes in the body, but this one is very red. 5:41 And if you do this all day long with a cellphone to your ear that's broadcasting and receiving, then you're essentially cooking that side of your head. 5:49 And we now know that there's an increased risk of acoustic neuromas in people who have a cell phone to the side their head for long periods of time, 5:56 not over a day or a week. 5:58 You're talking about months usually. 6:01 There are people that go around with cell phones attached to their heads all day long. 6:04 So we should never be doing cellphones to our heads unless they're on those air tubes. 6:12 Air buds are better. 6:14 Wi-Fi or Bluetooth is better, but it's still being broadcast. 6:20 So what happens then is that that's cooking as well. 6:25 It's not good for you. 6:27 Now, PEMFs are not designed for communication. 6:32 They're designed to help the body. 6:36 And the major difference is one is broadcast in the environment, as we call it, open loop. 6:41 And the other one is, this is my thumb, is the wire that carries the current that produces a magnetic field. 6:48 And this called the right-hand rule. 6:51 So that's the wires. 6:52 Every time the the, current goes through that wire and it can pulse, there's a pulse of the magnetic fields.
PEMF for Brain Health and Alzheimer's 6:59 That's why it's called pulsed electromagnetic field, every time there is a Pulse, There's an increase in the Magnetic field perpendicular to the flow of current. 7:08 What happens to that current? 7:09 It goes out and comes right back, goes out and it comes back. 7:15 Yes, it goes into the environment, but it collapses right on itself with every single pulse. 7:21 It's not going out into space, right? 7:24 It is a closed loop. 7:27 That current and that wire then controls that magnetic field, pulsing. 7:33 So it's designed then to pulse into that body and then when it pulses into it creates charge in the body. 7:41 So the electric or the magnetic field is the principle of physics called Faraday's law and Maxwell's equations. 7:48 And so there's physics associated with all this. 7:51 According to Farada's Law, Farade discovered this himself in the 1800s. 7:56 When you pass a pulsing magnetic current past a wire, a coil wire with a light bulb attached to it. 8:05 You pass the current through it, lightbulb lights up. 8:09 That's it. 8:09 You don't need to plug it into the wall. 8:13 It just magnetic field causes current to flow in that wire, which then causes the light bulb. 8:20 So what does that do in the bar in, the body? 8:23 It's causing charge in. 8:24 The body. 8:26 And then that charge and the. 8:27 Body is used by the, body, that extra energy is now used. 8:30 By the Body for all the things it wants to do with it, what it was to. 8:36 Do with. 8:37 not what the magnetic field wants to do with it, what it wants do it. 8:41 So the body's in control. 8:43 And we know that magnetic fields, in my books, I talk about the actions of magnetic feels physiologically. 8:49 Increased circulation, decreased inflammation, stimulating stem cells, basically helping the acupuncture points and meridians in the bodies, 8:56 balances the points of meridian automatically. 9:00 That's why these very low intensity magnetic fuels work is because they're working on the actual puncture system. 9:05 They're not strong enough to heal deep in the body. 9:07 We'll get into the intensities shortly. 9:10 So as the magnetic field pulses into body, like the wind flowing through the trees, you know the winds there because the leaves are moving. 9:20 It could be a weak wind, it could a little breeze, or it can be very powerful wind. 9:24 And same thing with magnetic fields. 9:25 They can very be powerful and create a lot of charge in their body Fortunately, magnetic fuels are generally extraordinarily safe. 9:33 And so why are they helpful against EMFs? 9:37 Because they do all this stuff to help the body be healthier and to be able to react to the environment in a very safe way. 9:44 So that means that basically magnetic fields are making the bottom resistant to these external magnetic field, environmental magnetic feeling. 9:53 Again, when you're standing in front of a microwave tower right in from of it, then you better be blasting yourself with PEMF at the same time. 10:00 But generally speaking, if we're surrounded by EMFs, but they're relatively weak. 10:05 So if you're doing magnetic field therapy on a regular basis, we basically just body's brushing it off. 10:10 It's just not a big deal at all. 10:12 Are you tired of living with chronic pain? 10:15 Medication only masks the symptoms, But real healing starts at the cellular level. 10:21 I'm Dr. 10:21 William Pollock, the leading expert on PMF therapy. 10:25 policy electromagnetic field therapy is a science-backed, drug-free solution that helps reduce pain, speed up recovery, and improve overall health, 10:34 right from the comfort of your home. 10:37 Take advantage of an exclusive 10% discount on DrPaul's.com PEMF systems. 10:43 visit drpawluk.com, that's D-R-P-A-W-L-U-K dot com, to register and claim your savings. 10:51 This limited time offer is available only to registered listeners. 10:55 Don't miss your chance to experience the benefits. 10:58 Terms and conditions do apply. 11:00 Just manage pain, transform your health. 11:03 Visit drpaluk. 11:05 com today and let's get started on your healing journey together. 11:15 So what about when it comes to the brain? 11:17 You mentioned these benefits of increased circulation, of reduced inflammation. 11:22 These are things that come up a lot when we're talking about the causes of Alzheimer's. 11:27 Is it safe to have a PEMF pointed at your brain. 11:33 Very good question. 11:35 So there are FDA approved machines. 11:39 I don't know if you care about the FDA or not, but you know, there's a process that you go through to prove that what you're claiming is truly happening. 11:47 So in other words, I can't make a claim to the F.D.A. 11:51 and I have to proof it, that it's actually doing what your saying it is going to do. 11:55 The FDA has approved magnetic therapy devices to treat the brain. 11:59 It's called RTMS or TMS, transcranial magnetic stimulation. 12:03 And these are high powered machines. 12:06 And how do they work? 12:08 You actually put a coil up against the head over the motor cortex, right? 12:12 So right here is what we call the Motor Strip. 12:16 Above the ear. 12:17 So that motor strip basically is, what controls our hand movements and our body movements. 12:22 The brain tells the body move. 12:25 It tells, the which part of the, body to move and how much to, move, and so on. 12:30 So what happens is that if you put a coil over that area and you turn up the intensity really high, you can actually cause contractions of the opposite hand. 12:40 And they actually do that on purpose. 12:41 They stimulate the brain and that's called the motor threshold. 12:45 So the brand gets stimulated now and then the hand moves. 12:48 It's okay. 12:48 That's call the Motor Threshold. 12:49 But now what we do is move that coil, the front of head to treat for depression. 12:55 We actually increase the Intensity by another 20%. Wow, so this is significant. 13:02 It's huge. 13:03 And PMFs were developed to basically undo the need for convulsive therapies, ECT, electroconvulsive therapy, right? 13:14 For treatment resistant depression, for psychosis, or other needs. 13:18 So magnetic field therapy undoes that horrific way of treating the people which causes muscle spasms and contractions, it's actually causing a major seizure. 13:26 Right? 13:26 So Magnetic Field Therapy has replaced it. 13:29 And now you have a tool that you can fine tune a contraction in a part of the body. 13:34 But you're not going to continue to do that. 13:36 You're going keep going back to the motor cortex to that, you go to other parts of that brain that your treating then for specific purposes, 13:42 like treating depression. 13:43 Then you could use it for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and MS and neurodegenerative disorders, brain injuries, basically anything that's going on in the brain, 13:52 that is not healthy, but even a healthy brain who wants to be even more healthy even more active, you can use PMF to do that too. 14:01 So at a cellular level, what's happening here? 14:06 Okay, so in the books, both books the Power Tools book and the Supercharger Health book, I outlined the different actions of magnetic fields. 14:14 We mentioned some of them. 14:15 Improved circulation, reduced inflammation, increased oxygenation to the brain, increase oxygen delivery to increased electrical responsiveness of the 14:27 brain controlling the brand frequencies. 14:29 So if all of a sudden the has more juice in it, if you will, right, then the can function better. 14:36 You can control frequencies, you can stimulate stem cells, so you actually stimulate brand repair. 14:40 And then there's this wonderful term called plasticity. 14:45 Some PEMFs increase brain plasticities. 14:49 They increase the ability of brain to take in new information process it and then produce a value from it, produce some kind of action that you might want. 14:58 Memory for example, or mood changes for, example or focus or concentration or sleep for that matter. 15:08 So you can do all of these different things just by stimulating the brain in the right way. 15:13 So again, 27 actions, there's no point going through all the different actions of them, but circulation is a big one. 15:18 Inflammation is big. 15:20 Increased plasticity is the big, gene changes is one, stem cells is another. 15:26 All of these are done by the brain and all of the PMFs are doing is stimulating the brains. 15:32 The brain says, okay, I need more stem cell, or I more circulation, anti-inflammatory action, more calcium movement in the Whatever. 15:41 So the brain decides what it's going to do with it. 15:44 And to help our listeners understand, what's the difference between this and like neurofeedback, for example, and what effect does PEMF have on brain waves? 15:54 So I've been trained in neuro-feed back. 15:57 I have a lot of neuro feedback equipment sitting there gathering dust. 16:01 . I was intrigued by neuro feed back, I thought, well, with neurofee back I can really make a difference. 16:08 But I discovered that neurofeedback typically is relatively passive, and it's very slow. 16:14 It takes a lot of sessions. 16:17 Most of the time, it takes lots of session. 16:19 And it can take anywhere between 20 to 50 to 70 sessions of neuro feedback. 16:24 I've had patients have 90 sessions and not have any benefit. 16:28 Not any benefits. 16:29 Because what the neuro-feed back has to do is it has reposition parts of brain and the brain's functions. 16:35 But then that repositioning of brains functions is in an environment of a brain that's fighting against it. 16:43 It's trying to do something else. 16:45 So what I realized is with the frequency changes of the PMFs, I can fight with EEG, quantitative EEGs.
Brainwaves, Neuroplasticity, and Treatment Intensity 16:52 We can do brain mapping, right? 16:54 We say, well, this part of brain has too much beta, This part the brain as too alpha, and this one has to much delta and so on. 17:01 Those parts of our brain have too many or too little We can then tune the brain with PMF therapies into those frequencies that relate to those brainwave patterns. 17:11 So you can restore the. 17:14 Like that, and you may only need five or 10 treatments. 17:16 Now, if you combine enough therapy with neurofeedback or other neuroplasticity work, it'll work much faster, much better, 17:25 or much. 17:25 Wow. 17:27 Okay. 17:27 And I'm sure if. 17:28 You combine it with enough nutrients and enough sleep and some of those. 17:32 Well, so you. 17:33 Can't build a house without bricks and mortar. 17:36 You have to have the nutrients. 17:37 You can't fix something that needs calcium or that it needs proteins or it need fats. 17:43 If you don't have those basic substrates in place, then the body or the brain in this case doesn't not have equipment or tools that need to be able to 17:52 do the fixing. 17:54 So you have basic function, basic supplies to the brains, and then you the functional parts of the But then you also need to stimulate the brain. 18:04 You need the activate. 18:05 And that's where neuroplasticity comes in. 18:06 you have to activate the Brain. 18:08 So if I want to build memory, what do I do? 18:11 If I just sit there, okay, I'm going to go memory. 18:13 Okay, where's the memory coming from? 18:15 Here is it. 18:16 I can't see memory where is the Memory? 18:19 So you Have to do something to produce the memories in the Brains. 18:22 If you give the brains the Memories that it needs. 18:25 But you need the plasticity and you the circulation and the healthier functioning brain to be able to take that memory, consolidate it, 18:32 put it into place, and then be to allow the brain pull it back out. 18:38 So PMS work along that whole spectrum, that process. 18:42 Magnetic field therapy activates the nutrients. 18:47 It activates and amplifies the anti-inflammatories. 18:51 it improves the neuroplasticity as the brain now wakes up. 18:54 So, okay, now I have energy. 18:57 Now I can do my job, I could learn. 19:00 I'll give you an example of brain stimulation. 19:03 We have a machine called the FlexPulse that has a bunch and I just have to design the flex pulse based on my training and their feedback. 19:14 If I say, Okay, i want alpha, beta, delta, gamma, all these different frequencies, but individually, I don't want them to be jumbled. 19:24 Can you describe the brainwaves and what they kind of like beta? 19:27 I think of beta as being a little bit more excitatory, a bit stressed maybe, and then theta is very creative, very relaxed state. 19:34 Could you just kind break them down for us real quick so that people can know what you're talking about there? 19:40 Sure. 19:41 I'll take it very important, actually. 19:42 And then when it comes to Alzheimer's, again, that's even more important in many ways. 19:46 So let's start with gamma. 19:50 Gamma is a more recently discovered brainwave pattern. 19:52 So gamma is where the frequencies of the brain are moving from the back to the front. 19:57 Gammas high frequencies, around 40 hertz per 40 to maybe around 100 hertz, cycles per second. 20:04 The brainwaves are in patterns. 20:06 They are waves, unlike PEMFs. 20:09 the Brain is in waves. 20:11 But PMS coming into the Brane at a specific pulse rate begins to move those frequencies in the brane into whatever direction you try to coax it. 20:19 You can't control it, but you can coax it. 20:22 So what happens then is beta, gamma is very high alertness. 20:25 It's very higher awareness. 20:27 Its integrative. 20:29 Taking all these inputs, the sensory inputs typically that we have into the body, whether it's sound, light, color, heat, 20:36 whatever, any kinds of sensory input. 20:39 And it is integrating those sensory and distributing them into different parts of the brain. 20:43 People who do a lot of meditation, are often in 40 hertz, they're often gamma frequencies. 20:50 Professional meditators, people who do a lot of meditation, their brains are cycling at 40. So their brain are like optimized in a sense. 20:59 The next level down, if you want to call it down. 21:01 But the next in frequencies is beta. 21:04 Beta goes from something like 13 hertz to 23 hertz approximately. 21:08 Or let's say up to 40, so that's alertness. 21:13 You're in beta, and hopefully the people in the audience who are listening are in beta. 21:18 They're integrating, they're listening, their learning, the processing, understanding, and they are trying to memorize. 21:24 That's beta, that's alert consciousness. 21:27 Doing arithmetic, doing your quick books, Doing your analysis and reading and integrating and writing a paper, That is beta Then we have, 21:40 essentially we Alpha is basically what I call a neutral state. 21:47 When I watch a dog or a cat just sitting there, their eyes are open and they're sitting and looking. 21:54 And they may be scanning. 21:55 Their eyes may moving back and forth. 21:58 You know they are just taking it in. 21:59 They are not planning anything. 22:02 Not hungry, not going somewhere to eat. 22:04 Just watching. 22:05 That's the observer state When we are in alpha, we're relaxed. 22:11 It's a relaxed state. 22:12 It is not asleep and it's not alert, it is waiting for input essentially. 22:18 Then we go from that and down into, so alpha then basically is from about eight hertz up to about 10 or 13 hertz. 22:28 Below that is theta. 22:31 So theta is the primary frequency for us to fall asleep into. 22:36 And a lot of people who are doing meditation are often in theta, We'll have to talk about doing meditation in gamma. 22:42 That's very interesting. 22:46 I mean, delta. 22:47 Meditation in delta, that's VERY interesting! 22:50 So, theta is meditation slight sleep. 22:53 When your head hits the pillow and lights out, the next thing you know, you're awake to go to the bathroom, but you slept for three hours. 23:00 THAT'S theta. 23:01 Now, below theta, is delta! 23:05 Theta is from like five hertz to eight hertz. 23:09 Delta is from one hertz, zero is dead, so it can't be zero. 23:14 Don't want that. 23:15 It's got to be better, it's gotta be more than that, So Delta basically is like one, let's say one Hertz up to about five Hertz, 23:24 four to five hertz. 23:26 So those are the different brainwave patterns and different parts of the brain are in different bandwidth patterns. 23:32 Our whole brain is not always in beta or isn't always a delta or theta, et cetera. 23:37 We have different part of brain that are different frequency sets and they're designed to be that way, right? 23:42 The brain has been designed do that kind of integration with different frequencies patterns And this is what we would measure on say like an EEG Or a quantitative 23:52 EE where we do the Brain Mapping Yes, that's what we measure with EEG. 23:58 Whether it's 12 lead or 3 lead, or whatever number of leads you have. 24:02 Correct. 24:03 Okay. 24:04 And then in Alzheimer's, what are the typical patterns that show up? 24:07 I think it depends on severity. 24:13 It's like ADD or autism. 24:16 An agitated Alzheimer patient is going to be in beta. 24:23 Probably not in gamma because they're agitated. 24:27 Agitation sort of undoes a whole lot of other stuff. 24:31 So if they are agitating, they in beta. 24:33 If they sitting there just like a dog or a cat looking into the environment, basically bleary-eyed, you know, blurry-eye, 24:42 well they probably in alpha, low alpha. 24:45 Maybe even in high theta. 24:48 So Alzheimer's, depending on how badly they're affected, they can be across the whole range of frequencies. 24:54 And they are more likely to have more dominant amounts of frequency for longer periods of time. 25:02 Early Alzheimer is not, it's a memory problem mostly, right? 25:06 But severe Alzheimer or severe dementias, the brain is sort of taken over. 25:10 When we have somebody with a brain injury or somebody who has encephalitis, and they were basically in coma, there's a good chance that most of the brain 25:18 function is going to be in Delta. 25:19 When you see a normal person when you do the EEG and they're almost all Delta, their brain is essentially shut down. 25:28 Okay. 25:31 And what would cause that? 25:34 Well, again, it could be severe head injuries, infections, toxins or toxicities, where you have so much cellular damage in the brain that the brains is 25:45 just shutting down its functions. 25:47 It's not that common, we don't really see it that commonly, but obviously in hospital settings you're going to see these kinds of people very frequently. 25:54 You'll see that kind of level of brain function in Alzheimer's units, dementia units. 26:00 They're nearing the end. 26:02 The brain is beginning to just sort of shut itself down. 26:05 And so applying PEMF to this sort-of dysregulation, if you will, what can we expect to see? 26:13 Well, again, there's a spectrum from mild. 26:17 So you can say mild cognitive impairment is an early component of the progression, potentially, of Alzheimer's. 26:23 Now, cognitive, mild-cognitive impairment, is a pretty common stage for 50-year-olds or 60-years-old. 26:29 You know, you go to a room and you forget why you went there, right? 26:33 You're distracted by something and all of a sudden the memory is gone. 26:36 The memory didn't lock in. 26:38 So that's at the very earliest stages of it. 26:43 But if you do PMF therapy with mild cognitive impairment, a certain percentage of those individuals are going to end up having Alzheimer's. 26:50 They progress. 26:51 That's a progressive disorder. 26:52 And if they have the APOE4 gene, And if you have a bad diet and you a lot of inflammation in your body, if not getting enough rest, 27:02 not enough activity or exercise, you're not get enough stimulation, all of these things tend to cause depression of memory and contribute to mild cognitive impairment. 27:12 So if he's doing brain stimulation with PMF therapy, he can stimulate the brain at specific frequencies. 27:18 But you can also just produce like an RTMS, you could produce a specific brain stimulation that just wakes the brain up in general. 27:26 PMF therapy can make the brains sleepy. 27:29 A lot of people who do PMT therapy at bedtime just zonk out. 27:32 When I do whole body PMFT therapy, I get very relaxed. 27:36 I can't read, don't want to read. 27:37 Don't really care. 27:38 Right? 27:40 I started producing a lot endorphins and enkephalins, and serotonin and I just don t really So that's a good place to be now and then, 27:48 right? 27:49 When you want to go to sleep. 27:51 Especially when you wanna go sleep or if you have a nap in the afternoon or you're gonna bed out. 27:55 You wanna just go into a very relaxed state, just tune out for a little while and recharge and regenerate. 28:01 So the earlier stages of dementia, then you start to have more significant memory changes. 28:07 And you may have behavioral changes as well. 28:09 Then you start to have problems with anger, problems of reactivity to environmental stimuli, you tend to overreact. 28:16 So there's a progression. 28:17 The sooner you can start with PMF therapy in this process, the more you could slow down that progression, so it not only can help with memory, 28:25 because the medications for Alzheimer's, these only help you with the memory. 28:30 They basically don't help your with repair or to stop the progression right, they just basically, catecholamines just, basically just stop, 28:38 just help the memory process, temporarily and partially. 28:42 And they're toxic. 28:43 Unfortunately. 28:43 Right. 28:44 Yeah. 28:45 So PMA therapy combined with nutrition, combined, with brain exercises, right? 28:51 All of these things work together. 28:52 Pma therapy enhances everything you do, makes everything, you work better. 28:57 Your body was designed to heal, but illness, chronic disease, stress, injury and time can slow that process down. 29:06 What if you could restore your body's natural ability to recover, recharge and feel its best? 29:13 The key to healing is giving your body the energy to repair itself. 29:17 PEMF therapy does exactly that. 29:21 Recharging your cells, improving circulation, reducing inflammation and helping you function at your best. 29:28 For decades, I've studied this technology, worked with hundreds of medical professionals and helped thousands of people reduce pain, 29:35 regain energy and take control of their health. 29:39 However, not all PMF devices are created equal. 29:42 No one size fits all. 29:45 We offer personalized consultations so you can find the right device for your needs, backed by real science and trusted results. 29:53 If you're ready for a real solution, let's talk. 29:55 Schedule a consultation at drpauluk.com. 29:58 That's P-R-P-A-W-L-U-K dot com, because real healing starts at the cellular level.
Device Selection, Anxiety, and Practical Applications 30:06 Well, that is exciting and very hopeful. 30:10 So how do people find out about getting the right PMF device for them? 30:14 Because there's a spectrum of these devices as well. 30:17 There's is a huge spectrum and it's very confusing. 30:20 If you go to DrPollack.com, to my website, drpawluk. 30:24 com, you'll find a number of resources about what PMFS can do. 30:29 We mentioned the two books. 30:30 So if you want to geek out a bit, there's 500 references. 30:33 You can find out the science of it with the Power Tools for Health. 30:36 It's got practical information too, but not as practical as the new book, Supercharger Health, which describes the mechanisms of action. 30:43 But we now get into, in the Supercharger Health book. 30:45 I get more into what kind of device should you consider for different kinds of problems? 30:50 So I should review 80 different health conditions and make a recommendation for the kind advice that's going to work best for that condition. 30:57 So you could have local magnetic field therapy that just treats, say, a tennis elbow or carpal tunnel problem, et cetera, 31:06 or a lower back. 31:07 And they're very inexpensive, typically much less expensive. 31:12 Now, when you want to do a more in-depth treatment, like a brain, now you need higher intensity. 31:19 So why do you do higher-intensity? 31:22 Because magnetic field therapy drops off in intensity just like light and cold and heat and sound. 31:28 Farther you are away from that stimulus, then the more rapidly it drops up. 31:32 It drops of extraordinarily fast. 31:34 So if you want to treat the brain and we want reduce inflammation, so to reduce the inflammation in the brand, which is a common cause of Alzheimer's, 31:43 right? 31:44 If you wanna reduce information, you might treat across the branch. 31:49 So 4,000 Gauss magnetic field on one side of the brain will drop off to 15 on the other side. 31:56 So 15 Gaus is the optimal level of magnetic fuel stimulation to reduce inflammation through the adenosine receptor. 32:07 And that's covered in the Supercharger Health book. 32:09 There's an appendix about that. 32:10 It's also on the website. 32:11 If you want to do a search on that, you can do search an adenosine, inflammation, and pain. 32:16 And it gives you tables on what kind of magnetic device you need for the intensity for where you're trying to treat. 32:21 So you have to figure out where are you treating. 32:24 You have know where your treating, then you pick the right machine that has got the intensities that you to start with. 32:30 Again, if you are treating an elbow, for a tennis elbow all you will need is about 15 gauss. 32:37 You may get a buy with 40 gauss or 50 gaus, but you may need something stronger. 32:44 So if you are concerned about Alzheimer's disease, then you need a more high-powered machine. 32:49 You can do something to stimulate the frequencies that we talked about. 32:53 One of the stories I'm going to tell you is I had a machine that was only about 200 gauses, and I have to pick up my daughter at the airport at two o'clock 32:59 in the morning. 33:00 She was supposed to come in at 830. but her flight's got delayed because of weather, and so I have to pick her up at two o'clock in the morning, 33:06 And I need to do my job in that next morning. 33:10 And so at 2 o clock in morning do I drink coffee? 33:14 Or do i get road drowsiness and I start to nod off? 33:18 Because I had to drive 50 miles each way. 33:19 So I said, okay, well, I'll have the right tool. 33:24 PMF therapy. 33:26 The FlexPulse has a 23 Hertz frequency, has 23 hertz program. 33:33 So I put one coil on the flexbox at the back of my neck, behind what we call the reticular activating system, which is one of the alertness control systems 33:41 in the brain. 33:42 And it was like, okay, I'm awake. 33:47 I wasn't buzzed. 33:48 It wasn' jazzed up like you would with coffee. 33:51 As soon as you stop it, the brains reverse back to where it wants to go. 33:54 So, i was alert the whole time I went to get my daughter. 33:57 Drove back, no problems, and no nodding off. 33:59 Had a stimulating conversation with my and then as soon as I got home I took it off and within 10 minutes I was in bed. 34:07 Wow, and did you feel okay the next day? 34:09 Oh great. 34:12 The magic, it sounds like complete magic to be able to, be awake when you want to and the jet lag, I want take it with me on my trip. 34:20 Well yes, for jetlag I have a frequency I call flying delta, so especially if I'm flying across the country. 34:26 And you especially, you're flying back east You're going to go the wrong way through the time zone. 34:34 But yes, the flex pulse allows you to pick the frequency that you want to do what you walk with the brain. 34:39 So if you wanna be asleep, you should be using Delta. 34:41 If you're gonna be alert, You should using Beta. 34:44 You wanna just be relaxed and tuned out, then use Alpha. 34:47 All right, if your very anxious person, I had a patient who saw me who was very, very actions. 34:55 And she had a one-hour visit scheduled. 34:58 She walked in, she sat down and literally within two or three minutes she started pacing. 35:02 Got up and started pacing. 35:04 Poor thing. 35:05 Really, She was extraordinarily anxious. 35:07 So I said, okay, I'm going to treat her with magnetic. 35:09 I pulled out my flex pulse, put it on the back of her neck like I did for waking. 35:14 And in this case I put her on theta. 35:16 i wanted to decompress her, i want to crash her quickly, right? 35:20 So she put it on the back of her neck, continued pacing, and literally within two or three minutes, sat down on a chair. 35:26 I could see the elevator going down. 35:30 Wow. 35:31 And she didn't have to swallow a pill, take a drug, anything with side effects. 35:36 Exactly. 35:37 So I asked her at the end, what was your stress level when you first sat out of 10, she said seven. 35:44 If somebody had asked me, I would have said 13. About her. 35:48 Her, exactly. 35:50 So at the end of the visit, they said, well, what are you now? 35:53 And she said three. 35:54 She was delirious. 35:55 It was really happy. 35:57 And so she bought a machine so you could deal with her anxiety, you know, so that's how quickly it can change the status of their brain in terms of brain waves. 36:09 Very safe. 36:11 Wow, how incredible and we know anxiety has a lot to do with Alzheimer's as well. 36:16 That really sets us up if we're in a high stress state all the time, our brain doesn't get a chance to recuperate, recover, 36:21 get get all of the benefits of a more relaxed, rest, digest, and heal state. 36:28 You're overstimulated by adrenaline, you're not producing enough parasympathetic balancing to your brain, the adrenaline then over time, 36:37 because it's a major stressor, it causes increases in cortisol, changes basically the brain frequencies and patterns, it tires out the brand, 36:46 essentially. 36:47 Yeah. 36:47 And there's direct implications for the hippocampus structurally, as well as the amygdala and the limbic system. 36:53 So when you're stressed, you don't remember. 36:55 Right. 36:55 I mean, we've all had that experience. 36:57 Stage fright is that classic example, but there is a lot of others. 37:02 Many of us can recall that time that we felt stressed and couldn't recall our words, couldn' recall somebody's name. 37:08 And that over time. 37:10 Entering into memory impairment. 37:12 If you're entering into Alzheimer's, early Alzheimer or mild cognitive impairment, then reducing stress is a major, major tool, 37:19 right, to help you maintain memory. 37:23 Wonderful. 37:23 Well, that is so hopeful and so exciting. 37:25 So drpawluk.com is where people can find out more. 37:32 And then your two books. 37:33 Will you share the names of those again? 37:34 So the one I would recommend the most is Supercharge Your Health with PMF Therapy. 37:40 Fantastic that's got the tables and the protocols and it's not a lot more practical information has no science if you're if, 37:46 you want to be geeky. 37:47 If you really read the science and I would suggest you get the other book, which is power tools for health. 37:52 The combination is very helpful because you don't have the protocol is in the power to us for help book. 37:58 Okay, great. 37:58 So get them both and geek out with Dr. 38:01 Pollack and get your brain healing with PEMF. 38:04 I love it. 38:04 Thank you so much, Dr Pollock. 38:06 It's just a pleasure to connect with you every time. 38:19 Thanks for joining me on the PEMF Effect. 38:22 I hope today's conversation gave you new tools, insights and inspiration to take control of your health. 38:28 If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to subscribe, leave a review and share it with someone who could benefit from PemF therapy and holistic healing. 38:38 Your body has the power to repair, recover and thrive. 38:41 Sometimes it just needs the right charge. 38:44 Until next time, stay curious, be proactive and keep powering up to better health! 38:49 you
