What does an ONDAMED treatment feel like?

A typical treatment can last 30-60 minutes with the patients sitting comfortably fully clothed in a chair or lying on a bed.  Generally, the patient will not feel anything although some patients may notice mild tingling sensations, a feeling of warmth or subtle twitches of their pulse as the individual low-dose PEMFs are administered to the body. Many patients feel a deep state of relaxation during and after the session.

Are there any restrictions after the treatment?

There are no negative side effects to ONDAMED therapy, so a patient is free to resume regular activities immediately after a session.

What should I expect to feel after an ONDAMED session?

Patients often report feeling relaxed with an overall sense of well-being. They experience a better, deeper sleep and feel more energetic and alert. They can have a reduction in pain and better mobility. Sometimes the patient may experience mild headaches and fatigue after the session due to the initiation of a detox reaction in the body. These symptoms are usually brief and drinking plenty of water will help facilitate this process.

When can people start to notice improvement with the use of ONDAMED? How many treatments does a patient require?

The number of treatments required will vary by patient and the nature of the condition being treated. Patients often report feeling less pain, increased energy, and better sleep and moods after the first session. Generally, people should feel some change in the first 5-10 sessions though it can take another 5-10 sessions (either weekly or bi-weekly) to see a substantial improvement in symptoms. Often the body requires a period of stabilization before it can begin to build strength and health. This is particularly true of chronic or multifaceted conditions so even if there is a reduction in symptoms, it’s beneficial for the patient to continue sessions to build strength in the body.

How do I know if therapy is working?

Some treatments provide immediate and long-term benefits as in the case of smoking cessation where the patient will quite often lose the craving to smoke after only one session. More often the effects may be more subtle and are seen over the long term. Often many issues can come together to cause dysregulation or disease in the body and healing can be like peeling an onion. You must peel off each layer one by one to get to the root and it can take several sessions to work through. You may not feel big results right away but changes in sleep habits, energy and focus, moods, bathroom habits, pain levels and overall feelings of wellness can all indicate that healing is going on in the body. In certain cases, objective testing may be used by the practitioner to help patients track their progress and increase their confidence in the treatment.

Is ONDAMED therapy safe? My doctor says I can’t do ONDAMED with my condition.

Yes, ONDAMED therapy has been evaluated by Canada’s regulatory bodies and approved and labelled as a safe, non-invasive Class II Biofeedback Medical Device. The pulsed electromagnetic fields are harmonious with the bodies own naturally occurring frequencies and are a lower energy than the average cell phone or electronic device. They are designed to be safe and have a therapeutic effect on the body, even helping the body to combat the effects of other more harmful frequencies in the environment.  

ONDAMED is safe for any patient demographic. Because it is an ultra-low frequency type 2 PEMF device, it produces very low energy and never delivers more energy than the human body already contains so it can’t override the output of a pacemaker for example or prompt a seizure in an epileptic patient. Patients with medical implants, pregnancies or any other risky condition can be treated without fear of any further harm.
