Glad to hear it works for you. The theory is that EMF (Electromagnetic Field) fortifies the polarity of iron molecules in red blood cells giving them a greater affinity for O2. In other words, each red blood cell carries more O2. I've used EMF therapy for a few years with success when I borrowed a unit from the physiotherapy ward. Unfortunately, it doesn't do me any good lately. Apparently CO in tobaco smoke (I'm a smoker) competes with O2 and bonds with red blood cells. In any case, use caution if it's the Pulsating type. The higher frequency settings are intended for vasodilation to speed up the healing process and will trigger one hell of a CH if used around the head. Use only low frequency settings.
Incidently, all space vehicles that carry living organisms, including humans, beyond the Earth's Magnetic Field carry EMF generators. Carbon-based life could not exist without EMF.
Cheers,
