Petspemf is a device designed to provide PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy for pets, including cats. This technology, which is used in both human and veterinary medicine, is known for its benefits in reducing pain, promoting healing, and improving mobility, particularly for conditions like arthritis and post-surgery recovery.
Note: I am not paid for this and it is not a promotional article. I am genuinely trying to help cats and was asked to write about the product by my friend. 😃👍
For cats, the Petspemf mat offers a gentle, full-body PEMF experience. Reviews generally suggest that many pets, including cats, seem to enjoy lying on the mat, and owners have reported improvements in conditions like arthritis and general discomfort. Some cat owners specifically noted that their cats used the mat voluntarily, indicating comfort or relief. However, it is difficult to gauge the exact impact on the pet since they can’t communicate directly.
In terms of cost, some users mention that the Petspemf mats are relatively expensive, with prices around $329 for the small version tailored for cats. However, for those who have tried other PEMF devices, such as targeted treatments like the Assisi Loop, the Petspemf mat offers a broader area of effect, which some users found more effective for their pets.
Overall, reviews are positive regarding the mat’s ease of use, comfort, and perceived effectiveness, though some owners may find the price a bit steep.
Also, cats’ human caregivers might benefit from the therapy too (see quote below). 😎
Sources: Petspemf, Technobark, The Cat Site, and Roberta – a friend with a cat who has benefitted from the therapy and therefore has first-hand experience. It was recommended by her veterinarian. Here is a quote from her email to me:
The electromagnetic field pad that we purchased pad is called Petspemf. She sits on it for a half an hour twice a day and it is very therapeutic and relaxing for her. Actually, I have had the opportunity to use it as well and I am amazed that it makes me sleepy on the stress relief setting and may well be helping me heal from my recent surgery on pain relief setting. There is no harm in the others sitting on it with her when she gets off its like she’s a kitten and her posture is fluid like she has no bones. – Roberta whose observations are reliable.
Here is Foxy, the cat who asks for a spot of electromagnetic field therapy just as she asks for food:
How it works – source: Petspemf
Pets’ entire bodies are electrochemical organs and can be effectively influenced by low and safe electromagnetic frequencies. PEMF uses electromagnetic pulses to stimulate and balance the cell’s functions gently with a pulsating magnetic field that penetrates deeply into the tissues and cells. PEMFs are produced through a magnetic field generator and copper coils, which are usually placed in a mat or a pad. The treatment is painless and non-invasive, and most pets find it relaxing and soothing.
Also, claimed by Petspemf:
PEMF has been scientifically proven to:
- Reduce inflammation
- Encourage relaxation
- Increase the body’s anti-inflammatory response
- Reduce swelling
- Improve mobility
- Ease stiffness
- Increase energy
