Magnetic Therapy
and Tinnitus; a pulsed electro
magnetic
field therapy (PEMF) & repetitive transcranial
magnetic stimulation (rTMS/TMS) research review
Research in field of PEMF and rTMS as therapy for
Tinnitus is expanding in areas outside of the United States where
BigPharma exerts less controls on the practice of medicine and
research $$$. The research can be found below the list of
bibliographies below.
Based upon client feedback and these studies, use of pulsed
magnetic fields is about the only reliable method of reducing or
eliminating tinnitus.
Several hundred pulsed electromagnetic field therapy citations
contained in our research bibliographies are linked directly to PubMed
a service of the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the U.S.
National Institutes of Health. These studies are offered
for your education only and are not intended as promotional material for EarthPulse
