When Other Treatments Can’t Reach the Problem
Are you dealing with a deep, persistent injury or chronic inflammation that just won’t go away? You’ve tried stretching, medication, and maybe even other surface-level therapies, but the pain and dysfunction remain. This is often because the root of the problem lies deep within the tissue—in tendons, bones, or joints—where it’s difficult to stimulate a healing response.
For these challenging conditions, you need a therapy that can safely penetrate deep into the body and address the problem at its source: the individual cell.
What is Regenerative Magnetic Therapy? A New Frontier in Healing
Regenerative Magnetic Therapy, clinically known as Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT), is a non-invasive technology that uses high-energy electromagnetic pulses to treat musculoskeletal pain and inflammation.
It’s crucial to understand that this is not the same as the unproven simple, static magnets sold for pain relief. The difference in power and mechanism is staggering. Our advanced system uses very short pulses at an extremely high oscillation frequency (100–300 kHz). This allows a powerful therapeutic energy field to penetrate deep into the body—up to 18 cm or 7 inches—without heating the tissue.
To put the power of this technology into perspective, the therapeutic magnetic field of our device is 80 milliteslas. For comparison, the magnetic field from a standard residential power line is roughly 7,500 to 15,000 times weaker at just 6 inches away. This immense, focused energy is what allows the therapy to interact with your cells on a biological level, “recharging” them to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and kickstart your body’s natural healing processes.
Regenerative Magnetic Therapy: Healing Your Body at the Cellular Level
Regenerative Magnetic Therapy is a revolutionary, non-invasive technology that uses a focused, high-energy magnetic field to spark healing in your body’s cells.
Imagine your cells have tiny “batteries” (cell membranes) that become dysfunctional when there’s an injury or chronic inflammation. Our advanced system sends targeted electromagnetic “jolts” that can penetrate up to 18 cm (7 inches) deep into the body without injections or breaking the skin. These pulses are designed to “recharge” or “reset” those cellular batteries, helping them to function better. This cellular activation kickstarts your body’s natural healing and regeneration processes, leading to:
- Reduced Inflammation: By calming inflammatory cells and pathways.
- Significant Pain Relief: By influencing nerve cells and reducing the mediators that cause pain.
- Accelerated Regeneration: By promoting the repair of tissues like tendons, ligaments, and bone.
This patented approach creates a powerful synergistic effect, where each wavelength enhances the benefits of the other, leading to faster and longer-lasting results.
The Clinical Proof Behind Regenerative Magnetic Therapy
The effectiveness of Regenerative Magnetic Therapy is backed by a growing body of international clinical research and is currently being studied in a clinical trial at the Mayo Clinic for its effectiveness on foot and ankle arthritis. The outcomes from published studies are remarkable, showing significant, measurable improvements in pain and function. Research shows:
- For Arthritis and Joint Pain: EMTT is a powerful, non-invasive option for degenerative joint disease.
- In a stunning real-world case, one of our physician colleagues documented how a single EMTT treatment for a colleague’s acute facet arthritis pain resulted in a complete, 100% reduction in pain (from a 10/10 to a 0/10) within minutes.
- Podiatric surgeons are now seeing good results using EMTT for arthrosis of the ankle, midfoot, and big toe joint.
- For Bone Healing (Stress Fractures, etc.): The therapy has been shown to work at the genetic level to accelerate healing. Basic science research has demonstrated that EMTT upregulates the genes associated with bone formation and accelerates matrix mineralization, the building blocks of bone repair.
- For Plantar Fasciitis: When added to a standard treatment plan, EMTT has been shown to dramatically improve outcomes.
- In a recent multicenter trial, patients with chronic plantar fasciitis who received EMTT in addition to shockwave therapy saw a 73% reduction in their “first-step” pain. Crucially, the EMTT group’s final pain score was 40% lower than the group that did not receive real EMTT, proving its powerful, additive healing effect.
- For Chronic Tendon Pain (Achilles Tendinopathy, etc.): This is one of the most well-studied areas for EMTT.
- A key study on chronic Achilles tendinopathy found that 8 out of 10 patients (80%) reported good to excellent results. Patients in the study experienced a 72% average reduction in pain (from 7.6 to 2.1 on a 10-point scale) and a significant improvement in their functional score (VISA-A) within weeks.
- These results are supported by research on other complex joints, like the shoulder, where EMTT led to a 67% reduction in pain from rotator cuff tendinopathy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Extracorporal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT®) is a non-invasive, evidence-based procedure developed specifically for the treatment of degenerative joint disorders, acute and chronic pain, and sports injuries.
EMTT® opens up new possibilities in regeneration and rehabilitation. EMTT® uses high-energy magnetic pulses
transmitted to the affected areas of the bodv. Due to the high oscillation frequency, EMTT® enables a high penetration depth and covers a large range of indications.
Health care professionals are using EMTT® to successfully treat musculoskeletal issues to include:
• Degenerative joint disorders: Wear and tear conditions such as osteoarthritis.
• Pain treatment (Chronic) pain, for example, chronic foot and ankle pain from muscle or nerve.
• Sports injuries: (Chronic) inflammation of tendons and joints, tendon overuse syndromes.
Insurance typically does not cover the EMTT® procedure, however, the Elective Payment option allows you to
have all the benefits of an EMTT® procedure at a very affordable price. Often there can be significant savings
to you through the Elective Payment option as compared to paying deductibles, multiple co-pays, and other
non-insurance covered surgery, post operative surgical care and rehabilitation. This non-invasive option will be
particularly appealing to those patients who are eager to return to work or normal activities in only a few days
with just as good, if not better, clinical results compared to traditional treatment methods, including surgery.
For most patients, the Elective Payment out-of-pocket costs are much less than you would expect. Your
physician can provide a personalized pricing program. Some patients can use their employer's "Flexible Payment
Medical Savings Account" to cover these out-of-pocket expenses with pre-tax dollars.
Extracorporal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT®) uses high-energy magnetic pulses transmitted to the affected areas of the body. Many patients report a significant improvement in their systems--sometimes even freedom from pain--after just a few sessions.
Yes. This FDA cleared technology was developed in Europe and is currently used around the globe. A wealth
of medical experience, state-of-the-art engineering, and optimal quality have been built into each EMTT® device;
