NASA’S EXPLORATION OF MAGNETIC THERAPY A SUCCESS
NASA has invest $3.5 million into four years of magnetic therapy studies
You know the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as the American agency responsible for putting a man on the moon, conducting 135 Space Shuttle missions between 1981 and 2011, and generally advancing aeronautics and aerospace research. What you may find surprising is that NASA has also concluded a number of studies on magnetic therapy, which is officially known as pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF).
What did NASA’s studies conclude? Magnetic therapy is effective in healing refractory broken bones — bones that are unable to heal despite repeated surgical procedures. NASA also found magnetic therapy is successful in developing tissues for transplantation, repairing traumatized tissues, and moderating some neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. Lastly, previous studies also suggest that PEMF might be useful in the treatment of some muscle disorders.
In 2009, NASA was awarded the U.S. patent for PEMF use to enhance tissue repair in mammals, and to reverse the bone loss experienced by astronauts when they are in a gravity-free environment and away from the earth’s magnetic field. NASA scientists’ ultimate goal for magnetic therapy is to create an astronaut suit that would provide a countermeasure for the muscle atrophy and bone loss associated with space flight. NASA’s findings in regards to magnetic therapy to sustain astronauts’ well-being while in space have been instrumental in validating ongoing scientific studies and the development of PEMF devices.
Clearly, magnetic therapy doesn’t just benefit astronauts. As NASA research concluded: On earth, this device is effective in the treatment of various muscle diseases, age- and cancer-related muscle atrophy, osteoporosis and other bone diseases. Currently, the Food and Drug Administration has cleared magnetic therapy for fusing broken bones, treating severe untreatable depression, and post-operative pain and swelling.

Electromagnetic Fields to Sustain Life on Earth, in Space, and Planets
Earth's geomagnetic field or natural pulsed electromagnetic frequencies (PEMFs) are essential to sustain the health of humans and life. As organisms have evolved within Earth's magnetic field .2-.7 Gauss (20-70µT) and electric field (100-300 V/min) for billions of years, PEMFs have an important role in sustaining life beyond Earth and for human space exploration. In the early 2000s, NASA demonstrated that astronauts who are cut off from Earth's magnetic field developed health problems, which could be mitigated by generating an artificial magnetic field.
The impact of a pulsed electromagnetic fields(PEMFs) on a biological organism varies based on the intensity, timing, and application. Both natural and artificial electromagnetic fields can enhance cell function, develop tissues for transplantation, repair traumatized tissues, and moderate some neurological conditions. Several clinical studies demonstrated that PEMFs influence cell activity, the autonomic nervous system and the blood flow. Studies on the short-term effects of a PEMF therapy (0.005, 0.03 and 0.09 T/s)demonstrate that the therapeutic application of pulsed electromagnetic fields can accelerate healing after bone fractures and also alleviate pain.
