High-Intensity PEMF
Clinical & ProtocolPEMF devices that produce very strong magnetic fields, in the thousands of Gauss. The higher strength is mainly about reach: a stronger field stays above a usable level farther from the surface, so it can reach deeper or larger target areas than a low-intensity device, where a low field would fade before it arrives. That reach comes from coil geometry and pulse strength, not from the field forcing its way through tissue, and PEMF response still depends on pulse frequency and the amplitude window as much as on raw strength. The lab groups systems as high-intensity above about 1,000 Gauss (100 mT), a Gauss Labs and FEI classification boundary rather than one drawn from the research. High-intensity pulsed devices typically reach from a few hundred millitesla up to roughly 1 to 2 Tesla at the extreme.
