Benefits of BEMER 3000 for Professional and Recreational Athletes

A number of clinical and experimental studies prove that physical activity will lengthen life expectancy and provide a certain amount of protection from chronic and age related diseases. Every sport we perform includes physical activity (other than Chess maybe), but not all forms of sport correspond to the natural movements of the body. Repeated movements that are unnatural to our physiology will cause deterioration and injury. With the striving toward personal peak performance, sport often leads to excessive physical taxation and exertion.

Intensive training and insufficient regeneration lead to high acidity and to 'over training'. What follows is often a reduction in performance and a higher chance for injuries. Thousands of people per year experience serious sporting accidents in professional training or recreation, including torn muscles, pulled tendons, dislocated joints and broken bones. The result often is time out from training or missing work.

In addition, continued misuse or over-use of certain joints and muscles through injury of others can lead to chronic illness like osteo-arthritis.

Effects of bio-electro-magnetic-energy-regulation:

Bio electricity and electro-magnetism form the basis of all life. Metabolism, growth, regeneration, healing, etc. are produced and regulated by electro-magnetic mechanisms. The electro-magnetic potential of the nerve- and muscle activity and their secondary metabolic and energetic effects are fundamentally essential for a healthy metabolism. Healthy tissue structures can only be formed and upheld in the presence of sufficient electro-magnetic activity.

For the athlete, the necessary supply of electro-magnetic energy within the organism is reduced in the following manner:

The BEMER 3000 induces a wide-band low frequency electr-omagnetic field with an intensity matching that of natural biological systems and thus improves the energy level without any side effects. Through a multitude of physiological processes, like improved circulation, increased oxygen partial pressure in the blood, anti-traumatic and anti-swelling effects, as well as activation of the synthesis of certain proteins, the body's natural healing- and regeneration powers are increased by about 30%. Quick regeneration has become one of the deciding factors in sports competitions today, where a fraction of a second can be decisive.

BEMER therapy before and after athletic activities provides the following advantages for the athlete:

Therapy with the BEMER leads to improved viscosity of the blood, increased circulation and higher oxygen partial pressure in the blood, which brings more oxygen and nutrients to the individual muscle cells. Since cell metabolism is also optimised, these additional energy carriers can be used more efficiently. The cells under duress can be regenerated and detoxified faster (from acid/lactose) and metabolic waste products are broken down and removed from the tissues.

Optimum preparation for training and competition by means of energy conserving warm up:

In every sport, a good warm up is the pre-requisite for top performance and reduces risk of the injuries. At the same time though, it costs the athlete valuable energy. BEMER 3000 warms the muscle tissue and activates metabolism. Therefore, the warm up can be reduced to a discipline-specific minimum and the saved energy is available for the competition itself.

Decreased risk for injuries through improved circulation:

Through improved regeneration, especially that of the muscles, hardening of the muscle tissue is prevented and/or decreased. This reduces incidents of torn muscles and ligaments and other related injuries.

Faster healing of sport injuries:

By using the intensive applicator on the injury site, traumatised tissue and edema get reduced significantly faster. Also, due to the increased synthesis of repair proteins, a faster healing process is achieved.

Prevention of long-term injury effects:

Long term disabilities due to sport injuries are the result of irreversible changes caused by repeated tissue damage. Through quick and complete regeneration of damaged tissue, sport related disabilities and chronic conditions can largely be prevented.

BEMER is used in Europe by several professional sports teams and competing athletes, who consider the therapy essential to their continued success.

SPORTS AND ATHLETIC USE / PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT

BEMER3000 and Sport

Intensive training and insufficient regeneration lead to high acidity and overtraining. Decreased performance and injury risk can  follow.

Success is experienced by tens of thousands of practitioners, sportspeople, teams and coaches in 54 countries with the BEMER3000 medical device:

The Swiss Olympic Team officially endorsed BEMER and there were 25 BEMER3000 systems at Athens for the use of the Swiss Olympic Team and was used for all the above reasons. Other international teams showed of course a lot of interest in this natural “enhancement” of blood circulation, oxygenation and performance of the athletes.

Other athletic disciplines such as weight lifting, cycling and winter triathlon to mention but a few, achieve a great performance boost and regeneration effect after the competition and/or injury.

FRACTIONS OF A SECOND MATTER !

Fast Regeneration has become a deciding factor in sport today

Through faster regeneration of damaged tissue, sports related disabilities and conditions may be minimised and/or prevented.

BEMER is always part of the 7-day international Transalp Mountain Bike race and will be part of the Cape Epic 2005 Mountain Bike Race early April which leads from Knysna to Cape Town over gruelling 7 days. Both races are sponsored by Adidas.

Sporting clubs, associations, and coaches operate Regeneration points at sports events, training sessions etc to assist the athletes in recovery, to regenerate and to improve performance. They may even effectively be used to generate income as a fundraiser at these events, or as a service to the organiser and athletes.

Oxygen shortage is the main reason for the lowering of the cell membrane potential and hence the performance characteristics of the individual cell, organ, and human being.

Oxygen transport capacity is maximized. Monitoring the difference in oxygen partial pressure is a means of monitoring the effectiveness of bio electro magnetic regenerative effects on the human body.

The blood is oxygenated through the electro-magnetic effect. Oxygen enters the cell through the cell membrane. Oxygen partial pressure normally decreases with age and correlates with the resilience / endurance of the person. BEMER treatment pushes up the oxygen during treatment. Continuous application over an extended period of time has a lasting effect.

The following high performance sports persons have a decisive advantage by making use of the BEMER3000 Therapy:

“To keep up the pace of the gruelling training schedule I use the BEMER 3000, which assists with my rate of recovery. When training for anything, be it every day fitness to even Olympic standards, you need to be able to be fit, to control pain, and be strong enough, with muscles having recovered to a stage so you can train effectively for the next session.

The BEMER is a remarkable product, it uses an exactly dosed therapeutic signal to rejuvenate cells, aiding in speeding up recovery and how long the muscles would normally take to mend. Canoeing is mainly an upper body sport, and with the training program I am on, I suffer from muscle fatigue in my back, lat muscles and my forearms.

The BEMER really works for me, in getting my muscles and body ready for the marathon of training the next day will bring. I use the BEMER everyday before I go to bed. There are different levels you can use the BEMER, however I find that once a day aids me sufficiently with my
fatigue. If I ever get some spare time during the day I will also jump on the mat for a quick boost, and I find it keeps me going, aids recovery and keeps soreness to a minimum. I would certainly recommend it to anyone.”

In SA a number of sports clubs (rugby and cricket) have used the BEMER to good effect but we may not name them, as they have not officially endorsed the product. (Scared the competition may find out about the “unfair” advantage ? )
