Default Has anyone heard of or used a BEMER?

Hi All,

I don't mean the kind with 4 wheels, but Electromagnetic field therapy. A neighbor invited people from our community (retirement) to come over and try hers. She says it helps her pain levels lessen, and that she sleeps better and wakes up with more energy.

I tried it, and didn't really "feel" anything while I was on the pad. There is a little round "hockey puck" that goes under your arms to help your lymph system. I got a slight headache when using that, but felt fine when it was off. The effects last about 12 hours, she says, so you use it twice a day.

I used it in the evening, and slept well that night. Woke up the next morning with less pain.

I'm tempted to buy one if I can get enough feedback that it really works. They are insanely expensive- $4000. to $6000.

Anyone have any thoughts or info. on this?

Thanks,

MaddyL.

Default Wow that's costly

I have never heard of it tbh, I would be researching everything you can before shelling out that amount of money and it also may be worth asking your insurer if they would cover some of the costs.
