Pulse Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy
Magnetic field therapy is a non-invasive treatment that may act as a form of pain relief in chronic degenerative conditions and speed recovery time from acute traumatic injuries. The use of magnets for medical treatment dates back as far as 2000BC in China. With pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy, defined pulses of electromagnetic energy are delivered to the affected area in a series of treatments.
PEMF has been used in the treatment of back and leg injuries in horses for several decades. With advancements in technology and PEMF equipment, the use of magnetic therapy has been applied to canines ailed by sprains, ligament injuries, and fractures.
The body’s natural magnetic field is created by the flow of electrically charges ions in and out of cell and the transmission of electric impulses through cell membranes. Only PEMF (not static magnets) can influence electrical changes on a cellular level. PEMF delivers a short duration, high intensity magnetic pulse which allows penetration through the joints and muscles in 20 minutes or less.

“I love Dr. Dolan!!! She has taken care of issues with my dogs for 5+ years. We were recommended to her by a friend. Between my 2 dogs we have had acupuncture and chiropractic work done. Also she used the machine that sends waves through parts of the body, in our case the leg, to help repair a torn tendon. We have also used the natural herbs she suggested for health issues. I would highly recommend her to my friends.” Betsy
