The intensity or amplitude is the strength of the magnetic field. The Earth’s natural static magnetic field is 33-66 micro-Tesla (uT). That corresponds to 0.33 to 0.66 Gauss. The Earth’s Schumann resonance, which is more of the frequency component of the Earth’s magnetic field, is only 1 pico-Tesla. A pico-Tesla is one-millionth of a micro-Tesla, or one trillionth of a Tesla. So, we’re talking about a very weak intensity. The Earth’s Schumann resonance has been proven to be an essential element of health, just like food, water, air and oxygen.
There’s a saying “small is powerful – less is more.” We can use an analogy of our senses.
For example, the amplitude window for your sense of hearing would range from a level that is just loud enough so that you could hear it to a level so loud that it could cause harm. It’s the same thing with light. If there’s not enough photons in a room (if it’s really dark), you can’t see anything. Or if you’re staring at the sun, it’s too bright. That is also true of PEMFs of the Earth, and what our cells respond to. If you use too high of an intensity, it can cause harm over time.
The NASA study showed that you only need 1-20 micro-Tesla to get the maximum benefits from PEMF. That’s weaker than the Earth’s static magnetic field. NASA has proven that lower intensity is what speeds up healing and regeneration. It’s similar to homeopathy; the strongest homeopathic remedies are the ones that are the most dilute. If you take a magnetic field detector and put it up to the Earth, all you will measure is the static field. You won’t get any frequency components unless you have a very sensitive antenna to pick up the Schumann resonance. Our bodies do have biological “antennas” that will tune in to the Schumann resonance and geomagnetic frequencies.
Biological Windows
"Small is Powerful, Less is More."- Ross Adey
Dr. Ross Adey coined the term “biological window” which is commonly called the Adey Window. The Adey window "describes the confined parameters under which a very weak nonthermal electromagnetic signal has a physiological effect."
Adey measured the calcium output of brain cells in rabbits to demonstrate that this effect could only be triggered using very low magnetic field intensities and a specific low (16 Hz) frequency. Since Dr. Adey’s initial discovery, the energy medicine literature has shown strong scientific consensus that biological windows are VERY important. More is not better!
A biological window is a range or spectrum of electromagnetic energies that are readily accepted by the body and converted to positive physiological responses. Signals that fall outside the biological window have little or no effect. Research has proven that living tissues readily detect, absorb and utilized electromagnetic signals within some frequency ranges and completely ignore the rest of the frequency spectrum.
PEMF therapy stimulation within the biological window can have a profoundly positive impact on health, where stimulation at frequencies and amplitudes outside the biological window will produce little or no positive health benefit.
If the magnetic field impulses reach the body in a certain frequency, they can resonate with the natural oscillation of cells and organ systems. The resonance effect restores disrupted or abnormal cellular and/or cell receptor oscillations that are vital for metabolic processes, circulation, cell regeneration and the immune system.
Homeopathic and Holistic PEMF Therapy Devices
FREQUENCY RESONANCE IS USING THE LAW OF SIMILARS IN PEMF THERAPY AND ENERGY MEDICINE
Low intensity PEMF, that is close to Nature's frequencies and intensities works WITH the body, promotes the healing response and overall leads to better healing and regeneration (see NASA study conclusions below).
Note: Check out my book, "PEMF - The 5th Element of Health" to fully understand the importance of the Schumann frequency and its higher harmonics, especially in the 0-30 Hz frequency range.
Now I want to point out something rather astonishing. As essential as the Schumann resonance is for life and the health of our body, it is an incredibly WEAK PEMF signal.
The amplitude of the Schumann resonance magnetic field (~1 picotesla) is many orders of magnitude smaller than the Earth's static or DC magnetic field (whihc is 33-66 microteslas).
Specialized receivers and antennas are needed to detect and record Schumann resonances. The electric component is commonly measured with a ball antenna connected to a high-impedance amplifier. The magnetic induction coils typically consist of tens- to hundreds-of-thousands of turns of wire wound around a core of very high magnetic permeability.
What that means is very sensitive antennas are needed to tune into the Schumann resonance. And guess what? The organic magnetite in your body along with other biochemical crystalline arrays act as powerful receiving antennas to tune into the Schumann and amplify its signal. And there is a reason NASA and the Russian space program have used Schumann generators in their space capsules... Because it's essential! Also Dr Rutger Wever's pioneering research in underground bunkers along with zero field studies have further proved that the weak PEMF Schumann signal IS essential for life. And it's a very weak signal confirming that frequency resonance is the key (like homeopathy), NOT INTENSITY!
A picotesla is one trillionth of a tesla. That is one picotesla = .000000000001 Tesla.
How can high intensity PEMF devices that are a trillion times stronger than the essential Schumann intensity possibily be safe and good for us?
Maybe Nature is giving us an important lesson that Homeopathy has been telling us for centuries:
The key to healing with energy is frequency resonance NOT intensity. The 4 year NASA study came to this very conclusion...
