Bemer Therapy System Evo |
Summary of Experience Over Past 7 Months • You need to start at the lowest level for at least a month or two to result in a positive experience• You will slowly notice results in 2-3 months• In the last six months leg circulation has gotten better, and even with biking or walking every day, the aches and pains disappear (note that I also use red light therapy - with $35 light pads from Amazon, not the $1,000 device from Bemer)• Long haul flights result in less aches and pains (both before and after) by using a Bemer prior trip• If you push the Bemer too fast (skip lower settings), it will result in short term memory issues, and in the middle of the night sleep - slight dizziness and nausea. If you are looking for a quick fix to your health issues, the first line of defense (and cheapest) is to improve from the inside out, by adjusting your diet and eliminating, or removing as much as possible the bad saturated fat with palmitic acid (anything with palm oils, and dairy which has lots of palmitic acid). In addition, take 1/2 teaspoon of Amla every day with tea or on food. These help circulation, and improve your cardiovascular health. It all starts with your circulation. Sorry: smoking and drinking work to defeat any healthy improvements.Apply red light therapy on your achy knees and joints.The Bemer is the most expensive option, to help with micro circulation.Note: You can't properly evaluate the Bemer experience in less than 3 months of use. * BEMER offers to Customers and IBDs a thirty (30) day money back guarantee from the date of shipment for all purchases equal to a 90% refund of the purchase price * On most purchases that's going to be around $500 or more.Why does the Bemer cause symptoms sometimes when skipping lower levels (intensity) as recommended ? My theory is that it effects the mast cells in the stomach, which ultimately control a allergic reaction (i.e. release of histamine). This would describe the symptoms of dizziness, shallow breathing, swollen throat, memory issues, etc. While my experience has resulted in less aches and pains in my legs, I do experience issues with sleep and dizziness, and other symptoms listed above. In other words, in some cases your stealing from Peter, to pay Paul. In most cases, there is always a balance in therapy, and when that is upset, then there are symptoms. |

Review in Progress Purchasing Experience: Ordering process online was a hassle. You have to select a Bemer representative for their commission (also known as ambassadors - a throwback to the multilevel MLM marketing days - remember Amway?) . The site will not allow you to continue to purchase unless you select a representative (I just selected a name at random and put in their information). Awful order experience. My order price was around $4,290.00 plus $235.95 tax (5.5 percent) for a total around $4,525.95Product Description: 414120 BEMER Basic-Set EvoNote on Invoice: Bemer provides a 100% refund on all purchases returned to us in an acceptable condition (based on agreed terms and conditions) within 3 days, and a 90% refund on all purchases returned within the the first 30 days (i.e., a 10% restocking fee applies, which will be collected separately for financed purchases).10 April 2024: Shipment arrived after a week in transit via UPS (and many shipment excepts while coming through customs in Kentucky UPS hub for international shipments). The phone number for my address label was incorrect. Shipment arrived around 1:30 pm from UPS Saver. Shipment box had a few punctures on the outside box, but inside contents were in perfect condition.I set up unit on the floor and ran for 8 minutes on low intensity, then 8 minutes on P1 (which ramps up treatment signal slightly). Some nice music played (like in a spa) which can be muted. Easy to set up and get running. My first experience was pleasant. A slight tingling feeling in my hands and legs. You can lay on the mat, or put the mat on top, since the coils produce treatment waves on both sides.I will be keeping a log of all treatments, along with visual and blood pressure (both arm and brachial) to chart any progress. I've been keeping a health log since 2018 |

The Impact of PEMF Therapy on Circulation: Enhancing Blood Flow for Improved Health Introduction:Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy is a non-invasive treatment that has been gaining recognition for its potential benefits in improving circulation. By using electromagnetic fields, PEMF therapy can stimulate cellular activity, leading to a range of positive effects on the body. One of the key areas where PEMF therapy has shown promise is in enhancing blood circulation, which is vital for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the body's cells and tissues. In this article, we will explore the science behind PEMF therapy and its effects on circulation, as well as the potential benefits it offers for overall health and wellness.Understanding PEMF Therapy:PEMF therapy involves the use of electromagnetic fields to stimulate cellular activity. The therapy works by sending electromagnetic pulses through the body, which can penetrate deep into tissues and organs. These pulses are thought to influence the behavior of cells, encouraging them to function more effectively. This can lead to a range of benefits, including improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and enhanced healing.The Science of PEMF Therapy and Circulation:PEMF therapy has been shown to improve circulation by promoting the dilation of blood vessels, which allows for increased blood flow. This is achieved through the activation of nitric oxide, a molecule that is responsible for relaxing the smooth muscle cells in the blood vessels. As these cells relax, the blood vessels widen, allowing more blood to flow through them.In addition to promoting vasodilation, PEMF therapy can also enhance capillary formation. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body and are responsible for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the body's cells. By increasing the number of capillaries, PEMF therapy can improve the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues, which can lead to improved cellular function and overall health.Benefits of Improved Circulation:Enhanced blood flow offers numerous benefits for the body, including:Improved Oxygen and Nutrient Delivery: When blood flow is increased, more oxygen and nutrients can be delivered to the body's cells and tissues. This can lead to improved cellular function and overall health.Reduced Inflammation: Improved circulation can help to reduce inflammation by removing waste products and toxins from the body more effectively. This can lead to reduced pain and swelling in affected areas.Faster Healing: Enhanced blood flow can also speed up the healing process by delivering more oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissues. This can help to reduce recovery times and improve outcomes for a range of conditions.Improved Cardiovascular Health: Improved circulation can help to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by promoting the health of the blood vessels and reducing the likelihood of blockages and clots.Conclusion:PEMF therapy is a promising treatment for improving circulation and enhancing overall health and wellness. By promoting vasodilation, enhancing capillary formation, and improving blood flow, PEMF therapy can offer numerous benefits for the body. Whether you are looking to improve your cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, or speed up the healing process, PEMF therapy may be a valuable tool to help you achieve your goals. |

Traveling with the Bemer The Bemer is not made for ease or convenience in travel. The B.Box is clunky and heavy, not to mention all the cords.A better system is to have the user interface in a smartphone app, then have a separate controller box for the actual magnetic resonance pad.120 V wall power (USA) is supplied to the adaptor, and from the adaptor to the B.Box is 15V and 2.4 amps to the B.Box and the output to the Pad or other devices is significantly less. The power used for the entire system is 15 x 2.4 = 36 watts (very low power used).The power from the B.Box controller to the applicator, is barely measurable (i.e. almost nothing).Data: B.PAD111 x 13 x 1,5 cmAverage Flux Density: ≈ 100 μT (max. level)Average Flux density plus (Applicator): ≈ 150 μT (max. level)Power Consumption (System): 30 Watt max.Input Output (System): 100-240 VAC 50- 60 Hz, 0.6A12-15.1 VDC, 2.0 AOptional 7.2 V Li- Ion batteryNon-Clinical Testing:Performance testing involved multiple measurements of:• BEMER signal waveform current output (AC RMS in mA) generated from B.BOX Classicand Professional consoles as input to the applicators• magnetic flux output (μT) generated from B.BODY, B.SPOT, B.SIT and B.PAD applicatorsat all signal intensity input levels 1-10Reference: Please see link below for FDA letter application. |
Red Light Therapy at 660-680nm Provides an Effective Approach to Reducing Pain |
First Line of Defense For about $35 on Amazon, you can get immediate knee and foot pain relief for a fraction of the cost of a Bemer.

Bemer Connector Proper Placement One of the return issues is a broken pin on the connector.The proper way to attach the magnetic connector is to slowly rotate in from 90 degree angle, instead of letting it snap in (which ultimately damage the pins).Note: If you need warranty work under the 3 year plan, then you have to ship the entire pad back to Bemer. Expect weeks of downtime.

14 April 2024 Update I have been using the Bemer experience for almost a week now. Typically I start my morning with a P2 16 minute session which starts at low and ends with medium intensity. I start with the Bemer pad on top of my body, then follow up with a 8 minute medium intensity by laying on the Bemer pad.In the afternoon I follow-up with the same routine.I use it in combination with my Red Light Therapy (RLT) which is at 660-680 nm wavelength. The RLT belts I bought from Amazon for about $39 each. In the morning I use 4 RLT belts which cover my upper and lower legs. A few times during the day, I put the RLT below and on top of my feet. Specifically, at 61, my knees typically ache from biking around 2000 miles per year and lots of long flights sitting down. The RLT makes the aches and pains disappear.I have also had lots of left leg problems with bulging arteries since Covid (and the mRNA vaccine in 2022). This is especially worrisome after long flights to Europe and back. It usually results in left leg inflammation as seen by swelling.The reason for my purchase of a PEMF device (Bemer) is to help with the circulation.I have a multi-pronged approach, which first starts with a plant-based diet, fruits, and spices. All of that is complemented with exercise, biking, and a elliptical trainer. The worst part of traveling is too much sitting. This stresses out the lower back and knees.My goal with my travels now is to try to find some healthy approaches to traveling, even when only poor dietary choices and lots of sitting are the norm.The Bemer experience is just another attempt and effort to try to better my health, and delay the awful effects of aging and inflammation gained while traveling. |

23 April 2024 Update I have been using the Bemer experience for several weeks now. Morning: P2 16 minute session which starts at low and ends with medium intensity. I start with the Bemer pad on top of my body, then follow up with a 8 minute medium intensity by laying on the Bemer pad. I think it's important to gradually build up the intensity, time, and programs from the lowest level first.In the afternoon I follow-up with the same routine.All these observations are anecdotal. I wish I could have established my beginning biometrics, but my healthcare provider (Dean SSM) charges around $500 (out of pocket) for blood work, and around $5,000 (out of pocket) for a leg ultrasound (shows artery health and possible blood clots). I know this from my last visit, when I had a high C-reactive reading and I was giving a ultrasound for leg blood clots after traveling (I travel about 6 times a year to Europe).Calf Development: Since the pandemic/Covid/Vaccine I have been unable to get good muscle development on my lower legs, even with biking 2,000 miles and regular exercise. Now the development is returning. I'm getting good muscle formation.Feet: Foot circulation is definitely improving.Losing Weight: No change seen.Left Leg Arteries: Vericose veins are decreasing in visual appearance.Recovery After Biking: Typically when I'm biking more than an hour a day, I'll notice leg tension in the evening when lying down. That has virtually disappeared. For me, this indicates it might be good for muscle and recovery from exercise and biking.Possible Negative Side Effects: I am getting some lower level brain fog. Some times very light dizziness when sleeping. Sometimes I'm noticing heart palapatations when using the Bemer on high intensity, and when using the therapy.Other Therapies:I use Bemer in combination with my Red Light Therapy (RLT) which is at 660-680 nm wavelength, which I use on my lower legs. |

12 May 2024 Update After a two week break of the Bemer, from traveling to Europe with two long haul (at or more than 10 hours of stitting time) and three shorter flights (1-3.5 hours), along with unhealthy eating, and less-than-normal exercise and biking.Upon return my left leg and foot had swelling, and some on the right leg and foot.Within three days of resuming my Bemer treatment (P2 for 16 minutes and Low Intensity for 8 minutes twice a day) the leg and foot swelling has completely subsided.Since the pandemic, I've been traveling to Europe around six times a year. With each return, leg swelling was prevalent for up to 2-3 weeks. It was particularly bad in 2022 after getting Covid in January 2022, and then getting the mRNA booster shot in February 2022. It left leg swelling was so bad after traveling in 2022 that I sought medical evaluation and had a leg artery ultrasound for blood clots (none were found - but were recommended after a high blood inflammation indicated by C-Reactive testing).In summary, the Bemer has helped reduce long haul flight leg and foot swelling. My current routine:Morning: P2 16 minute session which starts at low and ends with medium intensity. I start with the Bemer pad on top of my body, then follow up with a 8 minute low intensity by laying on the Bemer pad. I think it's important to gradually build up the intensity, time, and programs from the lowest level first.In the afternoon I follow-up with the same routine.Left Leg Arteries: Vericose veins are decreasing in visual appearance.Recovery After Biking: Typically when I'm biking more than an hour a day, I'll notice leg tension in the evening when lying down. That has virtually disappeared. For me, this indicates it might be good for muscle and recovery from exercise and biking.Other Therapies:I use Bemer in combination with my non-Bemer Red Light Therapy (RLT) belts, which are at 660-680 nm wavelength, which I use on my lower legs. I have four belts (two top and two bottom), once a day for 30 minutes while doing sittups. |

15 May 2024 Update I now have a Bemer coach. Thank you JJ for helping me dial-in the Bemer device, so I can optimize its effect.The first order of business was to discuss my current usage (see in my posts).JJ emphasized that everyone should first start as directed, at the lowest settings (this is clearly indicated in the instruction book).So now, I'll limit my Bemer usage to twice a day. In the morning I'll do either a S3 or low intensity for 8 minutes.And in the afternoon, I'll do a 8 minutes low intensity.If you need a Bemer coach, please email me for JJ's contact information (he is in southern California).As a side note, I really want to look at the Bemer B.Pad.Evo (smaller version) for wrist issues and carpal tunnel for all my programmer friends. I also want to look at using this for travel. The only issue is that it only hooks up to the large and heavy B.Box.Evo (too clunky for streamlined travel.29 May 2024 Update. I can't recommend using a coach, they're more focussed on multi-level marketing than anything else. Just follow the instructions with the Bemer guide, and you'll be fine. The only complaint I have so far with the Bemer product is the horrible MLM method of sales. It's beyond annoying and detracts from the authenticity and quality of the product. Any pyramid marketing scheme detracts from the product. Remember AMWAY ? |

9 June 2024 Update No Bemer today.Awful nights sleep. at 11:50 pm night prior awoke from light nausea and dizziness. Dull headache frontal lobe of brain. Bad dreams. Memory problems.12:45 am night prior BP 129/81 57Got out of bed and was researching PEMF side effects until around 2:05 am. BP 120/76 60Back to sleep until wake up at 6:15 am.BP 125/87 58O2: 97 HR: 68.Won't use Bemer for a few days.In the morning did same routine of red light therapy. So the only thing I changed for the day was not using the Bemer therapy.Note: By end of day, no frontal lobe headache and brain fog gone. |

10 June 2024 Update Note: No Bemer day prior (Sunday 9 June).Great nights sleep. No brain fog. No frontal lobe brain headache. Feeling more alert than all of past week. No memory issues.Morning BP: 119/82 58O2: 98 HR: 73I will take a few days off from the Bemer, then continue without using the Plus feature, which boosts signal every 20 seconds.Note: It's important to keep a daily log, so you can refer back to when you changed settings on the Bemer. My theory is that using the Bemer Plus (Boost) is a disaster. I'm curious if this is a feature that was added since previous versions.One thing for sure is that the Bemer therapy will effect your brain, depending on use. You may have a similar effect at the dentists office when they use the newer Ultrasound cleaning appliance on your teeth, which can be felt in your brain. It makes the dental technicians job easier, but has a very bad user experience (literally rattling the brain since ultrasound uses 37 kHz).Reference: Ultrasonic FrequencyA frequency of 37 kHz or 37,000 cycles per second is ideal for most dental instrument cleaning requirements. Multi-frequency units are used for cleaning tasks such as difficult-to-remove contaminants (lower frequencies) or cleaning equipment with highly polished or complex surfaces (higher frequencies).Source: https://tovatech.com/blog/458/ultrasonic-cleaner/ultrasonic-cleaner-for-dental-instruments#:~:text=Ultrasonic%20Frequency,most%20dental%20instrument%20cleaning%20requirementsBemer Frequency:BEMER device and application.(A) The electromagnetic field (EMF) with a pulse-duration of 30 ms and a pulse-frequency of 30 Hz was generated by a commercially available control unit B.Box Classic (BEMER AG Int.) with 10 different levels of magnetic field intensity (from 0 μT to 35 μT).Source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5154536/#:~:text=BEMER%20device%20and%20application.,0%20μT%20to%2035%20μT).Note: Just because somebody patents a device or process, means nothing to its effectiveness. It simply protects the greed of the inventor from copycats. The patent office doesn't verify any actual workings of a patent. They only check for the uniqueness and originality to establish legal rights.Dentist Office Ultrasound Frequency |

28 August 2024 Update After more than a week traveling to Europe, here are my observations:• Faster recovery from long-haul flight from Madison-Chicago-Zurich.• Not as much leg or ankle swelling from flight - both to and from Zurich.• Red Light Therapy RLT band was taken on trip and significantly helped to prevent and eliminate an leg or knee pain from sitting so much on flights and train rides.• While I can't get any biometrics, leg circulation seems to have improved.One of the issues I have with Bemer, is how to show results, other than simple observations. With Red Light Therapy, I can feel less joint pain, etc. But with Bemer, it is more sublime.If you can't afford the horrendously expensive price of the Bemer, then here are some tips that will get you started in the right direction for traveling. Keep in mind that high sodium, inflammation, and sitting are your main enemies during travel. While you may not be able to avoid eating high sodium, high saturated fat (cheese, meat, etc.) foods, you can mitigate the results.• For morning tea, drink 1/2 teapsoon of Amla and 1/2 teaspoon of powdered cacao.• After meals, eat prunes and blueberries (dried is fine).• Take along potassium chloride, a salt substitute. • Try your best not to eat any airline food, which is loaded with sodium, and take your own nuts, and other foods.• On flights drink water, apple juice, or other non-alcoholic drinks.• Whenever possible walk or hike at your destination.• When possible, buy and make your own meals.• Most breakfasts are included in European destination resorts, use that as your main meal.• Shop for fresh fruit at local markets. It's fun to see what European stores have to offer.When waking up, use your Red Light Therapy belt plugged into a adaptor, for at least 30-45 minutes before you start your day (especially if you have knee aches).These tips will help you travel with less pain, and less inflammation.Upon return, I started using my Bemer again (it's too bulky to travel with).Daily Routine:Only using once per day: P2 (low intensity to medium intensity) for 16 minutes only, Pad on Top NO lightning booster (not available on S3).I've noticed that you only need one session per day. After more than three months the treatments stabilized without negative effects (memory loss, dizziness, etc).Morning Red Light Therapy: 20 minutes feet and legs.No Bemer in afternoon. Found that using twice a day leads to brain fog and memory issues.Other Notes: biking 30 km per day during summer. Hibiscus tea in morning and afternoon. Amla (LDL dropping features) and cocoa powder in tea in the morning. Plant based whole food diet.A recent health exam shows incredible drop in LDL cholesterol and other biometrics on a continuous drop since 2018 when I went on a plant based diet. I do take B12 supplements, as well as D3. All nutrients and minerals show normal in testing. B12 and D3 on the lower end of the normal scale.

14 September 2024 Update Two days ago I started (again) doing two Bemer sessions per day. Almost immediately, I noticed short term memory issues (for example, you're in the kitchen preparing a meal, you walk to the refrigerator and forget what you were getting). Then last night, I awoke with slight dizziness and nausea. I'm skipping the Bemer today and tomorrow, then returning to once per day, in the morning.On the success side, I've noticed:• better circulation• less age related wrinkles• better skin toneNormal Daily Routine:Only using once per day: P2 (low intensity to medium intensity) for 16 minutes only, Pad on Top NO lightning booster (not available on S3).I've noticed that you only need one session per day. After more than three months the treatments stabilized without negative effects (memory loss, dizziness, etc).Morning Red Light Therapy: 20 minutes feet and legs.No Bemer in afternoon. Found that using twice a day leads to brain fog and memory issues.Other Notes: biking 30 km per day during summer. Hibiscus tea in morning and afternoon. Amla and cocoa powder in tea in the morning. Plant based whole food diet.

5 October 2024 Update Schedule: I was doing one day with Bemer, then one day off, on S3 (the lowest setting for 16 minutes).Then I did two days in a row with the setting at Low (steady low) for 8 minutes x 2 (16 minutes total). Sleep: Excellent for about 5 hours, then repetitive dreams (i.e. resulting in dizziness) and then little sleep.Today: No Bemer therapy. Seeing if there is any benefits from taking a break.Memory: Low memory issues.Bike Ride: Standard 1.5 hours of biking. Knees and legs feeling great by use of Bemer and red light therapy.

8 October 2024 Update Schedule: Two days in a row with the setting at Low (steady low) for 8 minutes x 2 (16 minutes total). No Plus (boost), since that seems to have bad side-effects.Sleep: Sleep apnea. Non regular heartbeat. Diagnosis: Now concerned about brain-heart barrier and communications using PEMF. I have not been able to find much science, nor studies showing this. The only studies I could find is with 60 Hz from power linemen (workers of power lines) that have a high incidence of cardiovascular issues. The Bemer may use this frequency, but with low power magnetic field. Obviously, linemen deal with huge voltages and power fields.Tuesday 8 October: No Bemer therapy. No Red Light Therapy. Seeing if there is any benefits from taking a break.Wednesday 9 October: Great nights sleep, no issues. Trying RLT today, but no Bemer, to see if RLT has any impact. Note: I've been using RLT since 2020, with zero issues.

10 October 2024 Update After two days of not using the Bemer, I can feel some aches coming back to the legs.So for today, I'm putting Bemer on legs only. Setting S3 (variable low and no Plus or booster). 20 minutes.Sleep: Past two night without Bemer have been fine.Proceeding with Caution: Concerned about brain-heart barrier and communications using PEMF. I have not been able to find much science, nor studies showing this. The only studies I could find is with 60 Hz from power linemen (workers of power lines) that have a high incidence of cardiovascular issues. The Bemer may use this frequency, but with low power magnetic field. Obviously, linemen deal with huge voltages and power fields.Tuesday 8 October: No Bemer therapy. No Red Light Therapy. Seeing if there is any benefits from taking a break.Wednesday 9 October: Great nights sleep, no issues. Trying RLT today, but no Bemer, to see if RLT has any impact. Note: I've been using RLT since 2020, with zero issues.Thursday 10 October: Feeling some aches return to legs, without Bemer. However, knee pain or aches are not present in knees (I bike every day) using Red Light Therapy. RLT should be your first line of defense for mitigating aches and join pain, since it's non evasive, inexpensive, fast, and it works (I've been using RLT for my eyes and knees since 2020).Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF)—Physiological Response and Its Potential in Trauma Treatment |

14 October 2024 Update After a day of walking, and achy legs, decided to use the Bemer on S3 (variable low for 20 minutes - there is no Plus option with S3). Layed on pad. Legs felt better.Sleep: Woke up a few times. Once again, trouble sleeping on right side, trouble swallowing, and shallow breathing.This Week: Heading to Europe, so will give Bemer a break for a week, and see how sleep is, along with aches and pains in legs without Bemer. RLT: I will be bringing my RLT (Red Light Therapy) from Amazon ($39) with me, for knees and eyes. I've been using RLT since 2020 with good effect.Photobiomodulation: The Clinical Applications of Low-Level Light Therapy Mechanisms and applications of the anti-inflammatory effects of photobiomodulation Repeated Low-Level Red-Light Therapy for Controlling Onset and Progression of Myopia-a Review |

28 October 2024 Update After almost two weeks of travel without Bemer, definitely more aches and pains the the legs and knees, but red light therapy belt (680 nm and infrared frequency) helped immensely.Fast recovery after more than 15 hours of travel time back home. RLT (Red Light Therapy) from Amazon ($39) with me, for knees and eyes. I've been using RLT since 2020 with good effect.For portability, the red light therapy is amazing, with consistent results.Starting Bemer again today, on 28 October 2024 to reduce post travel aches.

29 October 2024 Tuesday Update: Results of first use of Bemer after almost two week vacation First Day of Use (from vacation break)Legs: feeling really good. Low inflammation. Typically after long travel days legs have some swelling, especially left leg, which Bemer seems to help and is effective.Short Term Memory: after a few hours after use, short term memory effected throughout the day. Example: you start to do something, then forget what it was you were doing, then a few seconds later, you remember what it was you were going to do.Sleep: overall fine.Throat Inflammation: unless I have a onset for a cold, throat has swelling, and discomfort in swallowing. Of course, after a long travel day during the fall, a cold or virus is a real possibility.Bemer Today: S3 low intensity for 20 minutes first thing in the morning after sleep.RLT: Same every day (including vacation).Mast cell activation syndrome: An up-to-date review of literature Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risk |

7 November 2024 Thursday Update: Week After Vacation and After Flu (or cold) Usage: I stopped using the Bemer on a regular (or intermittent) basis last Friday. This is after 7 months of usage since April 2024.FOMO: Why can't I stop using the Bemer ? Because I want to believe it helps with my leg artery circulation. One of the reasons I purchased the Bemer is to try to recover from long-Covid, or the after effects of taking the Moderna Vaccine (blood clotting and lots of other issues).Consistent Observations:• Legs: feeling really good. Low inflammation. • Short Term Memory: after a few hours after use, short term memory effected throughout the day. Example: you start to do something, then forget what it was you were doing, then a few seconds later, you remember what it was you were going to do.• Sleep: Nights without Bemer results in better overall quality of sleep.• Throat Inflammation: Appears to induce either mast cells for histamine production, or direct throat inflammation.• Position of Bemer Pad: When I use the Bemer pad on top, compared to laying on the Bemer pad, I notice light heart issues, especially when sleeping at night (when the body is at rest and quiet surroundings - you notice your heartbeat more).EVO Settings:• I've used the Bemer EVO settings at S3, or at its lowest settings for more than a month before ramping up the settings, which almost always result in side effects, prior to going back to a lower level, or limiting time. When I tried to go to low levels or medium levels, the side effects became more pronounced.• Boost or Plus: Do not use. This must be a useless feature they added in recent updates.What's Next:What's next ? I'm going to try to use the Bemer on feet or lower legs only. Other than that, I can't think of any other experiments for the Bemer. Make it Better:What would I do to design a better product ? • Smartphone App (having a dedicated Bemer box is clunky and useless - a iPhone already has a touchscreen)• Smartphone integration and mesh with HealthKit or Apple watch to monitor biometrics, to custom tailor Bemer PEMF intensity settings• Biofeedback would allow the new user to have a algorithm automatically set initial settings according to body heartrate and blood pressure values• More robust connectors (applicators - pads - etc only need a few actual connections - this is not Ethernet)Mast cell activation syndrome: An up-to-date review of literature Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risk |

10 November 2024 Sunday Update Tried Again: I tried using the Bemer pad on my lower legs and feet only. Low setting, no Pulse. 8 minutes.Observations:• Legs: feeling really good. Low inflammation. • Short Term Memory: Short term memory effected throughout the day. Example: you start to do something, then forget what it was you were doing, then a few seconds later, you remember what it was you were going to do.• Sleep: Awoke in middle of night with slight dizziness and stomach nausea.• Throat Inflammation: Discomfort in swallowing.

12 November 2024 Tuesday Update PEMF Whiplash ?What happens when you stop using PEMF (Bemer Pad) if you have been using it regularly ?My experience shows a increase in weight and blood pressure.I keep a daily log (since 2018 of all my biometrics) and I'm seeing some interesting (and alarming) effects after stopping the use of the Bemer pad. Is this re-toxification ? The opposite of de-toxification when you start using it ?I tried to find any scientific studies which show the after effects of using PEMF, and was unable to find any.Given this observation, it doesn't lend well to the use of stopping the use of the Bemer PEMF therapy.I'll update this more when I have researched the topic and will provide any scientific links if found.My theory is that going on the Bemer PEMF therapy is like going on a diet. If you stop, not only do you regain the weight, but you gain more. This is the body's natural response to un-natural EMF therapy.Does PEMF effect DNA expression ? The benefits of stopping the use of my Bemer pad are clearer thought, no memory issues, no mast cell activation, and better sleep. |

Don't Stop Using the Bemer Evo Once You Start Using It -15 November 2024 Friday Update I have stopped using the Bemer. My biometrics have shown a increase in weight and blood pressure. No short term memory issues. Better sleep. No throat swelling.On the negative side, aches and pains are returning to my legs, but even worse.The results I'm seeing now are alarming, if you stop using the Bemer (and PEMF), expect a return to base level prior to use, and even going below that (i.e. worse effects).While it initially appears to heal the body by increasing circulation, conversely, if you stop using it, then be prepared for worse results than when you started.An analogy is like a crash diet. You lose weight quickly, but when you stop, then you gain back to base level, and then more. It's simply the body's reaction.This is an effect I term Whiplash. Is it scientific ? Simply an observation, like most of the Bemer results.I now have the choice to start using the Bemer again, to regain the results from before, or continue to abstain.

December 17 2024 labwork on blood showing liver AST marker up significantly. |
17 December 2024 Tuesday Update Overview: inflammation with throat has increased since April, to the point where I scheduled a doctors office visit. I had the same bloodwork (tests) done as in July of this year.All tests came back about the same as July, except for one.The only concern was with the rise in AST, indicating some liver inflammation (damage). Is there any connection between Mast cells and AST ? Yes. Increased levels of AST indicate liver damage.Is there any connection with long term use of PEMF ? Maybe, in some cases. See link below, ...long-term exposure to PEMF can lead to oxidative damage of the liver. And... Some studies state that ELF-EMF has no consequences that indicate liver damage,[13] while others report that it may cause effects such as necrosis, apoptosis, and inflammation in the liver.[14,15] Therefore, the potential effects on liver morphology and apoptotic markers of long-term exposure to ELF-EMF were investigated in this work... I was unable to find other references, which may or may not mean anything, since studies have not been made specifically for the liver and impact from PEMF. It would appear that the benefits are outweigh the negative aspects of PEMF. While all that is fine, all I care about is my experience with PEMF and Bemer, and so far there are side effects, and now I see some effects on my liver.Use: I have been using the Bemer since April of 2024. This fall, I saw increased negative symptoms when using the Bemer PEMF. I have now switched to using Bemer on alternate days, to test using it intermittently, to reduce the effects of whiplash and the effects on Mast Cell activation.S3 (low variable no Plus) 20 minutes. Pad on top. Using once every 2-3 days intermittently. |

30 December 2024 Monday Update Just returned from a one week trip (plus travel days) to Europe. Brought the red light therapy pad (easy to travel with) and focussed on eating blueberries every day.The goal was to reduce inflammation as much as possible.There were lots of people with colds and flu around on every segment of the trip.By the beginning of the trip, my throat issues were becoming dominant, and a worry.For the trip, I decided to take Zantac, and then Omed (antacid Sandoz 20 mg), which worked perfectly.Results of trip:1. Throat swelling went away. (acid reflux)2. No leg, foot, or ankle swelling during or after trip. (red light therapy)3. Immunity booster provided by blueberries (superfruit) every day.Keep in mind that traveling around Christmas and New Year's holiday is one of the busiest travel times of the year, and lots of people were sick (coughing, hacking, raspy voices, bad breath - all signs of colds or viruses).I used the red light therapy every day for about an hour prior to getting out of bed in the morning.I ate a package of blueberries every day, split typically at lunch and dinner.Even cheating on my plant-based diet (pizza, fondue, and a few burgers) I was able to maintain healthy travel.So the big question is: Why did the use of the Bemer coincide with the thoat swelling and acid reflux ?Does Bemer effect Mast Cells or more directly, produce acid reflux complications ? My throat issues started developing over summer (constant Bemer use since May 2024).Now I'm trying to think of how to test the Bemer for any side-effect issues from use.

2 January Thursday Update After returning from a trip to Europe and taking almost two weeks off from the Bemer, I decided to try it again.I used program S3 (low intensity variable, no plus, 20 minutes) for two consecutive days at 4:00 pm in the afternoon.Benefits: aches in legs and hips, from traveling, reduced. Using the Bemer in the afternoon did not result in any sleep issues (dizziness) in the limited two days of use.Adverse Reactions:• Brain fog• Dull headache• Throat swellingMy initial theory of Mast Cell reactions or some time of acid reflux manipulation still holds. I'll take a day off, then continue using on a alternate day usage.

Red Light Therapy on the Feet Help Reduce Inflammation |
The Power of Red Light Therapy: Enhancing Circulation and Improving Health Introduction:Red light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation or low-level laser therapy, has gained significant attention in recent years for its wide range of health benefits. One of the most remarkable effects of red light therapy is its ability to enhance circulation, which is vital for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the body's cells and tissues. In this article, we will explore the science behind red light therapy, its impact on circulation, and the numerous health benefits it provides.Understanding Red Light Therapy:Red light therapy involves the use of low-level wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to stimulate cellular activity. The therapy works by penetrating the skin and promoting the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the primary source of energy for cells. This increased energy production can lead to a range of positive effects on the body, including improved circulation.The Impact of Red Light Therapy on Circulation:Red light therapy has been shown to improve circulation by promoting the dilation of blood vessels. This allows for increased blood flow, which can deliver more oxygen and nutrients to the body's cells and tissues. Additionally, red light therapy can stimulate the production of nitric oxide, a molecule that helps to relax the smooth muscle cells in the blood vessels, further enhancing blood flow.Benefits of Improved Circulation:Enhanced blood flow offers numerous benefits for the body, including:Improved Oxygen and Nutrient Delivery: When blood flow is increased, more oxygen and nutrients can be delivered to the body's cells and tissues. This can lead to improved cellular function and overall health.Reduced Inflammation: Improved circulation can help to reduce inflammation by removing waste products and toxins from the body more effectively. This can lead to reduced pain and swelling in affected areas.Faster Healing: Enhanced blood flow can also speed up the healing process by delivering more oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissues. This can help to reduce recovery times and improve outcomes for a range of conditions.Improved Cardiovascular Health: Improved circulation can help to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by promoting the health of the blood vessels and reducing the likelihood of blockages and clots.Eye Health: Red light therapy has been found to offer a range of benefits for eye health. It supports eye health by generating cell repair, reducing inflammation, and promoting healthy circulation. Specifically, it has been shown to slow age-related macular degeneration and support healing after eye surgery.A study from the University College London found that a brief application of deep red light in the morning once per week can improve vision that has declined due to aging, for up to a week. This improvement is attributed to the fact that red light increases the charge of the mitochondria in the eyes, allowing them to increase their energy output, which declines with age or disease.Another study found that red light therapy can improve color vision and color contrast in aging adults. A single three-minute session of red light therapy to aging retinas once a week returned color contrast levels to those of younger adults for an entire week.Moreover, red light therapy has been suggested to have the potential to improve eye health and should lead to affordable home-based eye therapies, helping the millions of people globally with naturally declining vision. It's been shown to enhance eyesight and protect against age-related macular degeneration.Conclusion:Red light therapy offers a non-invasive and effective way to enhance circulation and improve overall health. By promoting vasodilation, increasing blood flow, and reducing inflammation, red light therapy can provide numerous benefits for the body. Whether you are looking to improve your cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, or speed up the healing process, red light therapy may be a valuable tool to help you achieve your goals.

Oregano Oil When I first started my botanical extraction company in 2015, which made supercritical CO2 plant oil extractions, I came across a variety of healthy plant extractions. One of which was oregano oil extract. This hot extract (a way to describe a condensed extract which needs to be mixed with a carrier oil like Rice Bran oil or Olive oil) can be applied to the bottom of the feet which has a very interesting phenomenon of bettering the entire body. Some links are provided below. Also do a search on Google for oregano oil extract effects on cancer nih. That will give you lots of evidence based research.Why the feet ? For some reason, applying topical solutions of the bottom of the feet see results throughout the entire body. The feet are also a good place to start with any topical, light, or PEMF (Bemer) therapy, since Type 2 Diabetes and other illnesses first see lack of circulation in the feet area (furthest arterial function from the heart).Essential Oils of Oregano: Biological Activity beyond Their Antimicrobial Properties Extraction, Chemical Composition, and Anticancer Potential of Origanum onites L.

How Not to Age To properly cure, the best method is to start from within. And that's diet. Spices provide the best system enhancement, but going plant based (while including B12 and D3) is the best strategy for good health.As we get older, you absorb less of what your body needs. For example, after age 60 you absorb less and less Vit D from the sunshine, so you need to supplement. America got hit hard from Covid simply because most of the population was deficient from Vit D.Another example is cholesterol oxidation. When we heat oil (yes, even vegetable oil) we oxidize cholesterol and make it up to 10 times worse for our body (LDL which is a marker for heart disease). Eating meat which has been aged has a similar effect of oxidation. Blueberries and other fruits, legumes, and spices help regulate our ability to reduce the effects of aging, inflammation, and using natural food-based antioxidants to reduce free radicals.While the Bemer device may be a tool to help mitigate the symptoms of poor diet and age, your first and best line of defense is to put food in your body which helps, not kills you.The New Face of Berries: A Review of Their Antiviral Proprieties |

PEMF Effects Plant Growth by 80 Percent Yield Increase The use of magnetic field as a presowing treatment has been adopted by researchers as a new environmental friendly technique. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of magnetic field exposure on tomato seeds covering a range of parameters such as transplanting percentage, plant height, shoot diameter, number of leaves per plant, fresh weight, dry weight, number of flowers, yield, and lycopene content. Pulsed electromagnetic field was used for 0, 5, 10, and 15 minutes as a presowing treatment of tomato seeds in a field experiment for two years. Papimi device (amplitude on the order of 12.5 mT) has been used. The use of pulsed electromagnetic field as a presowing treatment was found to enhance plant growth in tomato plants at certain duration of exposure. Magnetic field treatments and especially the exposure of 10 and 15 minutes gave the best results in all measurements, except plant height and lycopene content. Yield per plant was higher in magnetic field treatments, compared to control. MF-15 treatment yield was 80.93% higher than control treatment. Lycopene content was higher in magnetic field treatments, although values showed no statistically significant differences. |

Pulse electromagnetic fields enhance extracellular electron transfer in magnetic bioelectrochemical systems Cathode materials for batteries:The pulse electromagnetic field (PEMF) showed significant influence on state-of-the-art pulse magnetic bioelectrochemical systems (PEMF-MBES) in terms of current generation and microbial ecology. EET was instantaneously and reversibly enhanced in MBESs inoculated with either mixed-culture or Geobacter. PEMF notably decreased bacterial and archaeal diversities of the anode biofilms in MMFCs via changing species evenness rather than species richness, and facilitated specific enrichment of exoelectrogenic bacteria (Geobacter) on the anode surface. This study demonstrates a new magnetic approach for understanding and facilitating microbial electrochemical activities. |
Infinity Turbine is currently developing 1070 nm LED arrays for transcranial photobiomodulation for brain diseases |
1070 nm LED Array for Light Therapy by Infinity Turbine for Neurophotonics Infinity Turbine is currently developing 1070 nm LED arrays for transcranial photobiomodulation for brain diseases.Brain diseases account for 30% of all known diseases. Pharmacological treatments are often limited by the blood-brain barrier, which restricts drug delivery to the central nervous system (CNS). Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) is an emerging technology that shows promise for treating brain diseases due to its effectiveness, non-invasiveness, and affordability. tPBM has been extensively used in pre-clinical experiments and clinical trials for conditions such as stroke and Alzheimer’s disease. The brain, a vital component of the CNS, is responsible for life activities such as thinking, emotion, and memory. Brain regions are anatomically interconnected, demonstrating both specialization and collaboration, making the brain one of the most complex and advanced systems in nature. However, the brain is highly susceptible to various disorders, including cerebrovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and brain inflammation. Photobiomodulation, which uses low-power light in the visible and near-infrared spectra to trigger biological responses in cells and tissues, has been considered a potential therapeutic strategy for Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
