What Is EMTT and How Can It Help Your Body Heal?

Last week we told you about three different regenerative therapies. This week we want to focus solely on EMTT.

What Does EMTT Do?

EMTT uses pulses of magnetic energy that go deep into your body. These pulses help your cells get stronger and work better. Your body already knows how to heal, but sometimes it needs a little extra help — and that’s where EMTT comes in. If you feel stuck or you feel like you’ve tried everything this may be the “reset” your body needs.

The EMTT machine doesn’t touch your skin directly. You sit or lie down, and a device is placed near the area that hurts or needs healing. You may feel a gentle tapping or pulsing, but it doesn’t hurt.

Now let’s look at four big ways EMTT can help:

1. EMTT Helps Lower Inflammation

Inflammation is your body’s way of protecting itself when something is wrong, like when you get a sprained ankle or have arthritis. It can cause pain, swelling, and stiffness.

EMTT helps your body calm down the inflammation by improving how your cells work. It helps your body stop making too many “bad” signals (called cytokines) that cause swelling and pain. That means less redness, less swelling, and less pain.

People with long-term inflammation — like in their knees, back, or shoulders — often feel much better after just a few EMTT sessions.

2. EMTT Helps Bones Heal Faster

When you break a bone, your body begins to grow new bone to fix it. But sometimes that healing can be slow, especially if you’ve had a fracture or surgery.

EMTT helps by waking up your bone cells and giving them more energy. It also helps your body make more collagen and calcium, which are needed to build strong, healthy bones.

Some people using EMTT after a fracture or bone surgery have healed weeks faster than normal! In fact, a 24 year old athlete had a clavicle fracture requiring surgery with hardware and in 3 weeks he competed in a half ironman triathlon due to the EMTT treatments! Normally this type of injury and surgery would take 13 weeks. 

3. EMTT Helps With Pain Relief

Pain can come from many places — joints, muscles, nerves, or injuries. EMTT helps reduce pain in two big ways:

  • It lowers inflammation, which is often a big cause of pain.
  • It helps nerves and muscles work better and feel less sensitive.

Unlike pain medicine, EMTT doesn’t just hide the pain — it actually helps your body fix what’s wrong. Many people say their pain gets better after just a few treatments, and the relief lasts longer than a pill. People with herniated discs that failed injections have found 2x a week for 4 weeks of EMTT helped them avoid surgery and stop pain medications.

4. EMTT Helps After Surgery

After surgery, your body needs time to heal. There can be swelling, pain, and tightness. EMTT can make this recovery faster and easier.

Here’s how:

  • It boosts cell energy, so your body can repair itself more quickly.
  • It helps reduce swelling and pain after the operation.
  • It supports tissue repair, so muscles, tendons, and skin recover faster.

Doctors and physical therapists sometimes use EMTT along with other treatments like exercises or shockwave therapy to help patients get back to doing the things they love.

Is EMTT Safe?

Yes! EMTT is non-invasive, which means there are no needles or cuts. It doesn’t use heat, and most people feel comfortable and relaxed during treatment. It’s a safe choice for people of all ages. If you are able to go in an MRI than you are able to have EMTT.

Final Thoughts

EMTT is a powerful tool that helps your body heal from the inside out. Whether you’re dealing with inflammation, bone injuries, pain, or recovering after surgery, this regenerative therapy can make a big difference.

It’s like giving your cells a little “recharge” so they can do their jobs better — and help you feel better, faster.
