PEMF systems of all kinds (high- and low-frequency, high- and low-intensity) are not free of contraindications and interactions. Depending on the applied field intensity, frequency and waveforms, contraindications may vary widely. Based on the risk analysis, which is a mandatory part of any certification, the legal contraindications for iMRS prime and Omnium1 are as following:
During pregnancy
In case of epilepsy
With electronic implants such as pacemakers or insulin pumps (exceptions with the consent of a treating physician)
Children younger than 2 weeks
In addition, the following so-called ‘relative contraindications’, therefore we name them interactions, need to be considered and must be evaluated by a licensed health care provider on an individual basis prior to a PEMF application:
Tumor illnesses
Serious cardiac arrhythmia
In acute attacks of hyperthyroidism
In the case of oversensitivity to electromagnetic radiation (EMS)
