PEMF Therapy
At West Coast PEMF Therapy & Wellness, based in North Vancouver and Squamish, BC, we support a completely natural, non-invasive therapy that addresses the root cause of your low back pain on a cellular level, unlike conventional medicine which typically focuses on treating the symptom.
Research has found that PEMF Therapy is an effective tool to combat and reduce lower back pain by working to decrease inflammation, which is at the root of this chronic condition. Please contact us for published scientific studies supporting back pain improvement using PEMF Therapy.
