Testimonial – Beryl Coxall, Chronic Sciatic Nerve Pain and wife of Parkinson Sufferer.
Hello Gillian,
I would like to let you know how pleased I am with the performance of the iMRS mat and pad. I have been using the mat and pad for seven weeks and am really feeling the benefit from it. I am 76 years old having had sciatica for many years and found I was not as able to carry out the everyday housework and gardening as well as I used to. By the end of each day I was in quite a lot of pain in my back and down my left leg. I was also very tired. I now feel much more energetic and am more able to do gardening and housework. I am still in pain at the end of the day but not as much and I am not as tired. Also am sleeping very well.
I am more thrilled with the progress of Len. Before he started using the mat and pad (He has had Parkinson’s for about 13 years) he was becoming very slow in his movements and very unsteady on his feet. No energy and his speech was becoming quite slurred. I found it difficult to understand him and always had to ask him to repeat everything which made him stop speaking most of the time and he was becoming quite withdrawn. I have seen such an improvement in him. He has much more energy and his speech has improved a great deal.
His face is much more relaxed, before it was always screwed up. I feel already his quality of life has improved a great deal and am looking forward to seeing how he progresses in the future.
Many thanks to you Gillian for the care and interest you have shown us and I am sure we shall both continue to improve.
With Very Best Wishes
Beryl, UK

PEMF and Parkinson's Disease
Abstracts of scientific studies on the use of PEMF with Parkinson's Disease:
This article reports on the case of a 73-year-old male Parkinson's patients suffering from disabling resting and postural tremors in the right hand, as well as other symptoms. Two successive 20-minute treatments with AC pulsed electromagnetic fields of 7.5-picotesla intensity and 5-Hz frequency sinusoidal wave led to improvements in visuospatial performance and a legible signature. Significant improvements in Parkinsonian motor symptoms were also seen following additional treatments.

This article reports on the case of a Parkinson's patient suffering from severe movement problems who received treatment with external artificial weak magnetic fields with a frequency of 2 Hz and intensity of 7.5 picotesla over a period of 6 minutes. Results showed a significant attenuation in disability and near total reversal of the symptoms lasting approximately 72 hours. The patient then applied equivalent magnetic fields on a daily basis at home. Sustained improvement was seen throughout an observation of one month.

Effects of MRS on Parkinson's disease:
Improved dopamine production, enhanced circulation and oxygen utilization. Due to the hyper-polarization effect, the magnetic field causes the stimulus threshold at the motor end plate to be raised, thus having a positive effect on the rigor and akinesia symptoms, because the muscle tone is reduced. The calming effect can reduce and improve the movement block and especially the trembling.
