We’re excited to introduce PEMF Light Therapy Pads at our Dulwich location! This advanced therapy is now available at The Wholeness Pod, and it can be used alongside Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for even greater health benefits.
Many of you are already familiar with our Standard Red Light Therapy, which we offer for the head and back, but you may be wondering, how does PEMF Light Therapy differ, and which one is right for you? Let’s break it down.
What is PEMF Light Therapy?
PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) Light Therapy combines red and near-infrared light with pulsed electromagnetic fields to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and promote overall healing.
At The Wholeness Pod Dulwich, we offer PEMF Light Therapy in the form of flexible pads, which can be placed on different parts of the body to target specific areas of pain, inflammation, or injury.
Key Benefits of PEMF Light Therapy:
✅ Recharge your cells and enhance energy production
✅ Improve circulation and oxygen delivery
✅ Reduce pain and inflammation
✅ Support deep tissue repair and overall well-being

How is PEMF Light Therapy Different from Standard Red Light Therapy?
At The Wholeness Pod Dulwich, we offer two types of Light Therapy:
1️⃣ Standard Red Light Therapy (for Head & Back)
Uses red and near-infrared light to penetrate the skin, stimulate collagen production, and reduce inflammation.
Best for: Skin health, wound healing, muscle recovery, fine lines, and wrinkles.
2️⃣ PEMF Light Therapy Pads
Combines light therapy with pulsed electromagnetic fields, allowing for deeper tissue healing and cellular regeneration.
These flexible pads can be placed on different parts of the body, such as the knees, shoulders, lower back, or joints, depending on your needs.
Best for: Chronic pain, inflammation, circulation issues, injury recovery, and cellular regeneration.
Comparison Table:
Therapy Type | How It Works | Best For |
Standard Red Light Therapy (Head & Back) | Uses red & near-infrared light to penetrate the skin, reduce inflammation, and boost collagen production. | Skin health, wound healing, muscle recovery, fine lines/wrinkles. |
PEMF Light Therapy Pads | Combines light therapy with pulsed electromagnetic fields to enhance cellular function and deep tissue healing. Can be placed on different body areas for targeted treatment. | Chronic pain, inflammation, circulation issues, injury recovery, and cellular regeneration. |

Why Combine PEMF Light Therapy Pads with Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)?
For next-level healing and recovery, combining PEMF Light Therapy with HBOT creates a powerful, synergistic effect, meaning both treatments work together for faster and deeper healing.
How It Works:
1️⃣ HBOT Floods the Body with Oxygen:
✔ You breathe pure oxygen in a pressurised chamber, increasing oxygen levels in your bloodstream.
✔ This supports faster wound healing, tissue repair, and cellular function.
✔ HBOT also reduces inflammation and supports brain function, making it effective for neurological recovery.
2️⃣ PEMF Light Therapy Pads Boost Cellular Energy:
✔ PEMF stimulates mitochondria, the energy centres of your cell.
✔ It enhances ATP production (cellular energy), helping cells repair and regenerate faster.
✔ PEMF improves circulation, reduces pain, and lowers inflammation at a deep cellular level.
3️⃣ When Used Together, the Benefits Multiply:
✅ More oxygen + better cellular energy = faster healing and recovery
✅ HBOT provides oxygen for repair, while PEMF ensures your cells use it efficiently
✅ PEMF enhances circulation, ensuring oxygen and nutrients reach deep tissues
✅ Together, they support neurological function, immune health, and chronic pain relief

Case Studies & Research Supporting This Combination
Scientific research has shown the effectiveness of combining PEMF Light Therapy with HBOT for various conditions:
📌 Neurological Recovery (TBI & Stroke) - A 2020 Frontiers in Neurology study showed that HBOT + PEMF helped patients with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) recover cognitive function faster than HBOT alone.
📌 Chronic Pain & Fibromyalgia - A Pain Research and Management clinical trial found that PEMF + HBOT significantly reduced pain and fatigue in fibromyalgia patients.
📌 Diabetic Wound Healing - Diabetes Care Journal research showed HBOT + PEMF improved wound healing rates in diabetic patients with chronic ulcers.
📌 Athletic Recovery & Performance - Many elite athletes use HBOT for muscle recovery and PEMF to reduce inflammation and accelerate tissue repair. A Sports Medicine study found that combining HBOT + PEMF reduced soft tissue injury recovery time by 30-40%.
📌 Post-Surgical Healing - A 2019 Journal of Rehabilitation Research study showed that patients healed 50% faster when PEMF was added to HBOT.
Who Can Benefit from Combining PEMF & HBOT?
This combination is ideal for:
✔ People with neurological conditions (TBI, stroke, Long COVID, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s).
✔ Individuals recovering from injuries, surgery, or chronic wounds.
✔ Those suffering from chronic pain, arthritis, or fibromyalgia.
✔ Athletes looking for faster muscle recovery and reduced injury downtime.
✔ Anyone dealing with fatigue, brain fog, or immune system issues.

Understanding the Frequency of PEMF Light Therapy
One of the key factors that make PEMF Light Therapy Pads so effective is their adjustable frequency range. Different frequencies target specific healing processes in the body:
Low Frequencies (1-10 Hz): Ideal for deep relaxation, reducing stress, and improving sleep quality. These frequencies help calm the nervous system and promote overall well-being.
Mid-Range Frequencies (10-50 Hz): Support pain relief, circulation, and muscle recovery. This range is commonly used for injuries, inflammation, and chronic pain conditions.
High Frequencies (50-100+ Hz): Stimulate cellular regeneration, bone healing, and deep tissue repair. These frequencies are particularly beneficial for post-surgical healing, fractures, and neurological conditions.
At The Wholeness Pod Dulwich, our PEMF Light Therapy Pads operate within a therapeutic frequency range, ensuring that we can tailor treatments to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re looking to reduce pain, speed up recovery, or boost energy levels, the right frequency setting can help maximise your results.
How Often Should You Use PEMF Light Therapy?
The ideal frequency of use depends on your health goals, condition, and response to the therapy. However, general guidelines suggest:
📌 For General Wellness & Energy Boost: 2-3 times per week
📌 For Pain Relief & Injury Recovery: 3-5 times per week
📌 For Severe Conditions: Daily sessions may be recommended
Each PEMF Light Therapy session at The Wholeness Pod Dulwich is designed to be safe, effective, and non-invasive, making it easy to incorporate into your regular wellness routine. Our team can personalise a treatment plan based on your specific needs to help you achieve the best results.
