BEMER Therapy at LaserTech Pain and Back Relief Center in Scottsdale, AZ
Improving Local Circulation to Support Healing and Recovery
At LaserTech Pain and Back Relief Center, we use technologies that address the root causes of pain and dysfunction rather than simply masking symptoms. BEMER therapy is one of those technologies. We use it, along with other technologies and Additive Care, as part of our individualized treatment protocols because of its ability to support healthy local circulation, which plays a direct role in how well the body heals and functions.
What Is BEMER Therapy?
BEMER stands for Bio-Electro-Magnetic Energy Regulation. It is a non-invasive physiotherapy technology that uses a low-intensity pulsed electromagnetic field to stimulate local blood flow in the muscles and surrounding tissue. BEMER is backed by nearly two decades of research and development and is protected by multiple worldwide patents.
The technology is built on a straightforward but important principle: the body heals best when circulation is working properly. Blood delivers oxygen, nutrients, and immune cells to the tissues that need them, and it carries metabolic waste away. When local circulation is compromised, that entire process breaks down, and the tissues and nerves in the affected area cannot function or recover the way they should.
BEMER’s patented signal is designed to support the body’s own microcirculatory system, which includes the tiny vessels that reach the most remote parts of the body and that the heart alone cannot adequately supply. By temporarily improving blood flow at this level, BEMER helps create the conditions the body needs to do what it is designed to do: heal.
How Does BEMER Work?
The pulsed electromagnetic field generated by BEMER moves through the area being treated, stimulating the tissues and the vessels within that area. This supports healthy local circulation where the field is applied and also inductively stimulates the muscles to improve performance and support recovery.
What this looks like at the microvascular level is meaningful. When circulation in the small vessels is compromised, the capillaries that deliver blood and its components directly to the cells are not adequately supplied. The cells don’t get the oxygen and nutrients they need, metabolic waste builds up, and the body’s ability to repair itself is reduced. Restoring flow at this level has a ripple effect on how the tissue functions and recovers.
The effects of a BEMER session, while temporary, have been documented to last up to 18 hours for some users, which is why consistent use as part of a structured treatment plan can build on itself over time.
Why We Use BEMER at LaserTech
Circulation is a recurring theme in the conditions we treat at LaserTech. Whether we are dealing with neuropathy, chronic musculoskeletal pain, or tissue damage that hasn’t responded to conventional treatment, diminished local circulation is often part of what is keeping the body from recovering.
BEMER fits into our treatment philosophy because it supports healing rather than suppressing symptoms. It does not block signals or numb tissue. It works with the body’s own systems to improve the delivery of what the tissue needs and the removal of what it doesn’t.
We incorporate BEMER as part of individualized treatment protocols alongside our other physiotherapy modalities and technologies, selecting it for patients where improving local circulation is a meaningful part of addressing their condition.
BEMER Therapy for Neuropathy & Joint Pain Treatment
At LaserTech, we incorporate BEMER primarily for conditions where improving local circulation is a meaningful part of supporting the healing process. That includes neuropathy, shoulder conditions, knee conditions, and hip conditions.
In each of these cases, compromised circulation to the affected tissue is often a contributing factor in why the condition persists or why healing is slow. By supporting blood flow at the microvascular level, BEMER helps create a better environment for the other physiotherapy modalities and technologies we use to do their work.
Because every patient’s situation is different, BEMER is always used as part of a broader, individualized care plan rather than as a standalone treatment.
Is BEMER Safe?
Yes. BEMER uses a low-intensity electromagnetic field and is non-invasive. There are no needles, no drugs, and no downtime involved. Sessions are comfortable and easy to tolerate. The technology has been studied extensively and is used in clinical settings across Europe and North America.
Find Out If BEMER Therapy Is Right for You
If you are dealing with chronic pain, neuropathy, or a condition where circulation and tissue healing are part of the picture, BEMER may be a valuable component of your care at LaserTech.
Dr. Zimmerman offers a free consultation for new patients. During that visit, he will evaluate your condition, explain how our physiotherapy modalities and technologies work together, and determine whether BEMER therapy is a fit for your individual situation. There is no commitment involved, just a thorough look at what’s driving your symptoms and what we believe can help.
