I am Jeremy Dreyer.
I injured both knees falling off a high ledge and landing on my feet resulting in my knees taking the impact. For more than six months I constantly felt pain in my knees whenever I ran or sat in a kneeling position. When kneeling I could not get up without putting my hands on the floor to lift myself, because of the pain. The treatment is very effective and while undergoing it, I felt relaxed. No pain or needles involved. It is very good.
I am Mathilda Hartzenberg. I am 57 yrs old.
For the past 25 years I have suffered from spinal problems, arthritis and have undergone 8 operations in both knees, which resulted in my experiencing such intense pain that I was in agony every day.
I tried everything from doctors, chiropractors and homeopaths etc. without any joy. My stomach became so sensitive to all the medications I was taking that I had to make a choice - either aches and pains - or less pain and a stomach that kills me. I chose aches and pains until I read about the INNOMED CLINIC, which treats clients with Electro-Magnetic-Field therapy.
After my first treatment I slept like a baby. After my second treatment I thought that I had made a mistake taking the treatment, because my body ached and throbbed like never before. I consulted with the therapist who was glad because that was a positive sign that things were happening in my body.
My neck and shoulders are completely better, my knees are pain-free for the first time in many years and my lower back has improved so much that I can turn myself over at night without asking my husband for help.
I want to thank the INNOMED CLINIC for what they have done for me, after so many years of suffering and lots of money spent.
The effect of BEMER on Tinnitus
From June 2000 I experienced a ringing in my ear as a result of an extremely emotionally stressful period in my family life.
At first I did not notice the ringing but as the months passed I become more conscious of it. I then went to an ENT specialist who assured me that there was no clinical abnormality, however that the ringing or buzzing was something I would have to live with. Since then I have used various types of therapy to address this problem, with varied success.
I then read about the Magnetic Field Therapy and once I established where I would receive the treatment, and made an appointment 3 weeks ago. My initial response after the 1st appointment was that I felt more energized and was able to manage my stress much better. As the 2nd week of treatment proceeded I noticed my sleep patterns had improved and together with better energy levels, felt that my Tinnitus was under better management. 3 Weeks later I can honestly say that the buzzing in my ear seems to have lessened by 25% and because it is stress related, I am conscious of the buzzing when under stress.
Since Tinnitus is neurological and it seems limbic, I believe that once all the factors around the symptom is address i.e. exhaustion, and better sleeping patterns, the Tinnitus is then addressed.
I hope to continue with the BEMER should I find that the condition continues but does not improve. I would appreciate any research findings using BEMER in the treatment of Tinnitus.

Hi, I’m Kenny Roberts and I am an average league tennis player. My 15-year-old daughter, Carmen is a very good tournament player.
She was junior S.A. doubles champion u/12 in 1998 as well as in the top five in singles. She was always playing one or another kind of injury. The last two years her injuries got very bad and she was on and off the court. We went to many doctors, specialists and physiotherapists, but to no avail. We even went to a witch doctor. Nothing helped.
In the meantime I was also suffering from a shoulder problem and went the same route as Carmen. Nothing helped.
Playing tennis is very tough on the muscles and joints, and we were at our wits end. Must we stop playing tennis or start playing with our left hand? Then I saw the advert for another type of treatment - Electro-Magnetic Field Therapy. At first I was very skeptical. Why would this treatment work? Eventually after a couple of weeks I decided to phone them. I told them that I was very skeptical because of past experiences.
How wrong I was! After only 7 treatments each we could already feel the difference. After about two weeks of treatments we felt no pain. As a precautionary measure we are still having treatment.
Hopefully we will be training at 100% soon. I believe this type of treatment will also help for a lot of other people with injuries or sickness.
We are really grateful and thankful for the friendly and always helpful staff at Innomed, Claremont.
We are really looking forward to a pain free future, thanks to you.
Regards
Kenny Roberts
Dear Innomed
Just to say how very much I appreciate your gesture in giving me complimentary treatments after by first 10 sessions were over.
I sincerely hope that on completion I’ll be fit and well again and a good example, as well as a good advertisement of how successful the Electro Magnetic treatments can be.
Thanks again and kindest regards.

I received the BEMER NEWS today, and after having read the letters from a happy BEMER user I think that my own story is worth telling.
I am a retired Pharmacist suffering from Poly-arthritis Nodosa. I had a reconstructive operation to my right knie after I suffered major damage when a horse threw me. I developed a septic arthritis postoperative and was bedridden for 7 months. I was on massive drug doses after being diagnosed with the aforementioned condition (80mg Cortisone - 100mg Endoxan (cytostatic) as well as NSAID is daily). I was frequently hospitalized and the Orthopaedic surgeon advised me that a knee replacement was inevitable.
My wife had a back operation 2 years ago and during October 2002 she developed major complications. She was in constant severe pain and could not sit for more than 5 minutes at a time and hardly slept at all. After an MRI-scan a Neurosurgeon advised major surgery with fusion of 5 vertebrae. It was scheduled for 4.12.2002. We are both keen on keeping fit in spite of our problems and walked 2-3kms 5 times per week in spite of the discomfort and pain. I heard about the BEMER system from a colleague and attended the BEMER presentation and training session in Mid Rand during the latter part of November 2002. I was quite impressed by the possibilities that the presenter outlined and bought a BEMER unit for my own use. The instrument was delivered to me in Pretoria on 26.11.2002. We started immediately with an intensive treatment schedule.
Now the wonderful news!!!! Both my wife and I experienced an immediate beneficial response. We took the instrument with when we visited our kids in Cape Town for Christmas so we could continue treatment. We visited Kirstenbosch Gardens and speculated on climbing the JC Smuts trail but it was too late and we returned to Bellville. We mentioned our idea to our children and they thought we were a bit dilly. We thought it to be a challenge and on Monday 30.12.2002 we attempted our “assault” on Table Mountain. We set off from Kloof Nek at 08h00, walked the route passing under the Cable Way and climbed to the top via Platteklip Gorge, reaching the summit at 13h10. We were absolutely ecstatic and our children could not believe it. We took the cable car down and after a nice hot shower we both hand an M2 treatment and a good nap. The most unbelievable aspect is that we had NO PAIN OR STIFF MUSCLES THE NEXT DAY!!!!! We are 66 and 57 years old respectively.
Since my return I have started a clinic treating 9 patients at the moment with absolutely marvellous and sometimes unbelievable results. We are pleased with our BEMER and recommend it far and wide. Two of my friends have bought BEMERs due to the wonderful results we have had with ours.
Kind Regards

Amputation wound treatment
My daughter, Megan, was involved in a motor vehicle accident on the 17 November 2001. Her right leg was seriously injured. In fact, it was half amputated at the scene of the accident. She was rushed to Milnerton Medi-Clinic where a 6 hour operation was performed to try and save her leg. The main problem was that her artery was severed. A plastic artery was inserted, but unfortunately a few hours later blood clots formed not allowing blood flow to her foot and her foot “died”. Amputation of the lower limb was performed immediately, which took another 4 hours.
The next few weeks were very difficult as Megan’s phantom pain caused her great distress. The medication prescribed for her did not seem to help. Three weeks after her accident her grandmother (her best friend) passed away, a very trying time for us all.
In the beginning of January her wound became infected and there was an area of about 7cms in length, 2cms in width and 1 cm in depth that caused the plastic surgeon concern. I had to take Megan to him twice a week for check ups. Instead of her wound closing, it was “bursting” open. He then mentioned that he might have to take Megan back into theatre. I could not allow this to happen as Megan (and )) would emotionally not cope with yet another theatre session.
I was referred to the Innomed Clinic and we attended the very same day. Even after as little as three sessions we could see a very definite improvement. By the time we had to see the plastic surgeon again, Megan has had five sessions of Magnetic Field Therapy. He was amazed at the improvement. No more theatre!
We have been attending every day since, with very positive results. Her wound is now 4cms in length and about 0,5cms in depth. She never had the courage to look at her leg, but now that she knows it is improving, not only does she look at it, but also she inspects it! She would never show anybody her wounds, but now all her friends and our friends have to have a look. She is so excited. No words can describe the gratefulness and thankfulness for the quality of life restored to Megan.
Thank you, Cheree.
From Dr A. te Reh: German e-mail translated.
Each patient’s specific conditions and circumstances were documented by means of the same questionnaire that is used in the Innomed Clinic. My systematic keeping of records started on 1.07.2002.
1.July 1st. Female patient, 72 years of age, complained of strong headaches and suffered from shingles over the left eye and forehead (N. Trigeminus). Eyelids were red and swollen. Standard treatment with Acyclovir brought no relief or improvement. In the hope of not doing any damage I suggested additional BEMER 3000 treatment (Levels M3 and M10). After only three days of therapy the pain, reddishness and swollen condition were completely gone!
2.July 29th. Female patient (30yrs) in a management position at a large German corporation complained about chronic headaches and sleeping disorders. She used Myprodol more or less regularly for the last three years. After five days of daily BEMER 3000 treatment (M10/P4 in the neck) she is complaint free and sleeps well without any medication.
3.July 29th. A friend of mine was involved in a serious motorbike accident and spent 10 days in ICU with collapsed lungs, fractured ribs as well as a number of other bone fractures. The patient was of course feeling very down”, too. After five BEMER 3000 sessions (M3/M10) the patient said that he hadn’t slept so well, felt so well and in good spirits for a long time, despite the broken bones and his overall condition. He had no more pain and a pair of rosy cheeks!
4.A seventy year old male suffered a stroke at the beginning of July. With some friendly persuasion from me, the patient underwent daily BEMER 3000 therapy at the Westville Hospital. After only one week of daily BEMER 3000 therapy the patient could recall specific bank account details and discuss them with his wife. Two days later the paralyzed leg started moving again and he was able to touch his knew. With the aid of appropriate physiotherapy, he can now also stand upright on his own. The hospital staff said that they had never seen such a fast recovery and healing. At present the patient is well and alert.
The BEMER 3000 Therapy is without a doubt a new dimension in patient medical treatment. Patients are generally more co-operative and their improved medical condition promotes a mind-set for a healthier lifestyle too.
For me as a medical practitioner, this presents a very positive professional experience to heal y patients more effectively.

First treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 3.
Found easing of pain.

This was the first time I have not taken celebrex and pain tablets at night in 18 months. No constant pain only with certain movements.
12/12/2001
Third treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 6.
Cannot believe improvement, I keep expecting pain and there is none - only with sudden movements. Still find discomfort, but nothing noticeable. No tablets taken.
13/12/2001
Fourth treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 6-7
No pain and no tablets.
18/12/2001
Fifth treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 7-8
Still no pain, movements easier. No tablets.
19/12/2001
Sixth treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 8-9
No pain, I am able to move my right arm freely - still some discomfort with sudden movements. No tablets.
20/12/2001
Seventh treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 9-10.
Last treatment; found movements almost pain free (still discomfort with sudden movements). I have started sewing again, cleaned house, stove, windows (have not been able to do so in more than a year!) and test of all tests - ironing - with no ill effects. There was no pain, any sleepless nights because my arem ached so. No tablets.
To me this was a miracle to do simple things without fear of pain. Dr Oliver van Blerk can verify that I have had a problem for approximately 18 months. Although I could ill afford paying for pain and antiflam tablets, there was no choice, to keep functioning daily that was the only way, and as my Medicure limit had been exhausted.
It was recommended that I see a specialist to undergo an operation to my shoulder/arm, but that is no longer required. Thank God I waited!

Austrian Paralympics
At a special function as part of the 2000 Paralympics on the 23rd September 2000 in the city hall of the Austrian town of Enns, Vice Chancellor Susanne Riess - Passer receives the BEMER sponsorship cheque on behalf of the Austrian Paralympic team from BEMER representative Karl Sapper.
The first paralympics took place in Rome in 1960 with 400 sportsmen and sportswomen from 21 competing nations. Only 40 years later, 4000 participants from 125 nations converged in Sydney to compete for paralympic gold. Austria was represented by 50 participants who competed in 11 events.
The venue of the 2000 Paralympics was Sydney, Australia and it took place over the period 18th - 29th October. The Games drew 650 000 spectators who saw participants compete in 18 disciplines. Austria sent 50 sportsmen and sportswomen and about 30 functionaries and helpers who were all present at the festivities at Enns.
Andrea Scherney is an Austrian athlete who is a graduate sport scientist, University lecturer and the Chairperson of the Austrian Handicapped Sport Association. She also holds the World Champion title for shot put (10,82m) and long jump (4,38). Andrea Scherney is an amputee below the left knee and has been voted Handicapped Spotswoman of the Year 1999.

Why the BEMER 3000 is always in my hand luggage:
Fast regeneration after hard training sessions and championship races is very important for me so as not to risk injury to muscles especially.
Strengthened Immune system: My aim is to be top fit in terms of my health and the BEMER 3000Therapy System gives me solid support in this regard.
Competition start-up help: By warming up on the BEMER 3000 I save about 1/3 of the energy usually required for a warm-up; this is energy I now have available for the actual competition.
Therapy and rehabilitation: In the event of having injured myself, the BEMER 3000 assists me in very fast regeneration and getting back to performance by applying the IA to the injured area.
My recommendations are for the BEMER 3000Therapy System,

Claudia Pechstein
Olympic Gold Medal Champion in Speed Ice Skating
“I apply the BEMER 3000 during training for accelerated regeneration. This is especially important during intensive training periods and high altitude training.
Furthermore I am under the impression that the fast regeneration also stabilises my performance level and influences my immune system positively so my body is more resistant to sickness.
The shorter regeneration periods also imply a lowering of my injury risk and lowers the effects of over training.
In my opinion, the use of the BEMER 3000Therapy System makes sense and I can highly recommend the use of the BEMER”.
VfB Stuttgart (Premier League Soccer Club)
The BEMER 3000 Therapy System is mainly used to achieve rapid treatment for sport injuries. Accelerated regeneration and healing processes imply less absenteeism due to injuries, reduced loss of performance due to the shorter healing cycle and players can be available for playing important games faster.
The BEMER 3000 Therapy is a permanent feature of all our players, for injuries and recovery and sustained health. Most times we use the IA to good effect. We are very glad to have discovered the BEMER System and we certainly would never like to be without it.
Dr med Thomas Frölich, Team Physician
EHC Straubing
The BEMER 3000 Therapy System has passed all tests and expectations brilliantly for our sports persons. The players were most impressed with the effectiveness, the easy transportability and the ease of handling of the BEMER. Just about everybody in the team (>90%) makes use of the BEMER Therapy. From a physiological viewpoint as well as from a Physicians perspective the use of the BEMER 3000 Therapy in high performance sport is a MUST for all therapeutical applications to ensure competitive success.

René Marxer
9x Liechtenstein Junior Champion and frequently under the top three in Swiss Cup Races.
“ Since the beginning of July 2000 I use the BEMER 3000 therapy at least twice a day. I have noticed that I maintain my high level of performance and that regeneration after intensive training is significantly reduced.
Especially with the onset of exhaustion and stressed muscles I experience a fast, relaxing regeneration and feel refreshed. Some time ago I fell during a cycle race and suffered bad lacerations. After treating the injuries with the IA twice a day they healed significantly faster and I experienced much less pain than usual during the healing period. I am excited about the BEMER 3000 Therapy and can highly recommend it.”

REPORT ON BEMER 3000 USE ON PARA-DRESSAGE RIDERS
SEPTEMBER 2006
A team of five physically disabled riders attended Para-Dressage training for one week at the South Bucks Riding for the Disabled Center in the United Kingdom. These riders were given the opportunity to use the BEMER 3000 during that week. None of them had any prior experience with or exposure to the BEMER.
The Riders
The riders had different disabilities and different levels of impairment.
The most disabled rider is a Cerebral Palsy Spastic Quadriplegic i.e. he has spasticity in all four limbs. In addition to this he has arthritis in his hips and has one hip that dislocates. He is wheel chair bound and performs walk only dressage movements when horse riding.
Two of the other riders also have cerebral palsy but more mildly and in different forms. One has Athetoid Cerebral Palsy and struggles with the co-ordination of her movements and her balance. The other is also spastic but mainly in her legs with very limited involvement of her arms.
One rider was involved in a motor vehicle accident which has left her with limited use of one side of her body i.e. she is hemi-plegic.
The other rider has a spinal cord injury also as a result of a motor vehicle accident. He has limited use of the muscles and limited sensation in his lower limbs and also uses a wheelchair. When riding he trots and canters.
The opportunity to use the BEMER on this trip was great as these young riders (they are aged between 13 and 21 years) had to deal with fatigue not only from traveling and walking long distances but they were also riding twice a day when some of them only ride once a week at home. There was the added nervous tension of riding unfamiliar horses and receiving instruction from someone whom they did not know. They were also travelling without family members.
The BEMER Program
All of the riders were instructed from the start of the trip that it would be compulsory for them to make use of the mat twice per day, once in the morning and once in the evening. The coil mat was used on level 3 each session. We arrived in the U.K on the Sunday and made use of the mat for the first time that evening. In addition to the two sessions on the coil mat, the intense applicator was also used where necessary.
The rider with the spinal cord injury arrived with a wound on his foot, that was approximately 3cm long and it was a deep wound. He had just completed a course of anti biotics to treat the infection in the wound and had an anti bacterial ointment to treat it while we were away. When it began to bleed after being bumped we decided to treat it with the intense applicator. We used it on P1 on Monday morning, P2 that evening and P3 every morning and evening for the rest of the week. By the Wednesday morning the wound looked much better and at the end of the week the sore had reduced to about 1cm wide and was only skin deep. His mother say that those wounds usually take him weeks and sometimes months to heal, she was so impressed that she continued to bring him to use the BEMER once we returned from the U.K.
The rider with the arthritis in his hips takes medication for joint mobility and to reduce his pain levels two or even three times a day when he is riding a lot. He had his medication morning and evening on the Monday and was still struggling with pain so decided that he was going to take his medication with him to the stables to use mid day too. On the Monday evening we started using the intense applicator on his sore hip morning and evening on P4. On the Tuesday morning he was in pain but the pain levels had begun to reduce before he even took his medication. On the Wednesday morning he used medication for the last time. He had not used it again even a week after he returned, despite the discomfort of the flight and he has been riding.
Another rider really battled with sore muscles in her thighs from riding without stirrups which she is unused to. She initially used the intense applicator on P2 on the Tuesday evening and then at her request we used the applicator on each thigh again each evening but on P3.
The Rider’s Response to the BEMER Use
Each rider was asked to prepare a short report on the training that they received and to include in that a comment on their use of the BEMER 3000. These are the responses that were received.
“The BEMER showed a remarkable change in my pain level and I would definitely benefit from it” - wheelchair bound rider with arthritic hips
“The BEMER helped with general stiffness, pain and concentrated pain as well” - Cerebral Palsy rider who used Intense applicator on her thigh muscles
“The BEMER made a big difference to my sore and also I did not get stiff after riding which I normally do”
“It was very relaxing using the BEMER”
A point of interest for me was that the one rider did not make any reference to her use of the BEMER so perhaps she felt that it had no effect, which is fine, but what I find interesting is that I have roomed with this young rider before and she is difficult to wake up in the morning and grumpy for the first half an hour or so. The BEMER was placed on her bed each time because it was closest to the plug point. I asked her to roll over, moved the BEMER mat under her each morning and then she did the first session. I never had a problem getting her up to give the next person a turn and she was her usual cheerful self right away!
My perception is that the BEMER mat made a significant difference to the energy levels and comfort of our riders but that the difference is made gradually and almost unnoticeably and you only realize it’s effects when you look back or compare to previous similar experiences. The Intense Applicator on specific areas had a relatively rapid and remarkable impact.

This is Al and Lindsay Garcia from South Ogden, Ut. We would like to share our experience with the Bemer 3000 in hopes that it may help those in a similar situation. We'll start by giving you a little bit of our history. We have been married for 6 1/2 years. About 4 years ago, we decided it was time to start a family. Of course as kids, you are engrained with the idea that it comes naturally to anyone and everyone, but to us it didn't. We tried faithfully for 3 years without success. After being told by specialists that we had very little chance of conceiving naturally, we decided to give in-vitro fertilization a shot. You can imagine our elation when we found out that not only were we pregnant, but we were expecting twins! At about 20 weeks, we were told that we were having a boy and a girl. Everything was absolutely perfect. The shopping and nesting began! Then came our 27 week ultrasound. We went in for a routine ultrasound and nothing could have prepared us for what we were told. They told us that our little boy, who was baby B, was not growing at the same pace as our little girl. She was 2 lbs. 3 oz. and he was only 1 lbs. 7 oz. The weight discrepancy at that stage of gestation is very large. They said that he will only continue to get comparitively much smaller as time goes on, until he's too small to survive. Through further doppler testing, they said that the reason he was not growing was that he was getting very insufficient blood flow through his umbilical cord from the placenta. They said that it was severe enough that if it were any worse at all, they would recommend taking our babies right then and admitting them to the NICU. They warned that if they took them at 27 weeks, they could face many mental and neurological issues. We were faced with a very tough decision, as we would hate to take our girl out

I injured both knees falling off a high ledge and landing on my feet resulting in my knees taking the impact. For more than six months I constantly felt pain in my knees whenever I ran or sat in a kneeling position. When kneeling I could not get up without putting my hands on the floor to lift myself, because of the pain. The treatment is very effective and while undergoing it, I felt relaxed. No pain or needles involved. It is very good.

For the past 25 years I have suffered from spinal problems, arthritis and have undergone 8 operations in both knees, which resulted in my experiencing such intense pain that I was in agony every day.
I tried everything from doctors, chiropractors and homeopaths etc. without any joy. My stomach became so sensitive to all the medications I was taking that I had to make a choice - either aches and pains - or less pain and a stomach that kills me. I chose aches and pains until I read about the INNOMED CLINIC, which treats clients with Electro-Magnetic-Field therapy.
After my first treatment I slept like a baby. After my second treatment I thought that I had made a mistake taking the treatment, because my body ached and throbbed like never before. I consulted with the therapist who was glad because that was a positive sign that things were happening in my body.
My neck and shoulders are completely better, my knees are pain-free for the first time in many years and my lower back has improved so much that I can turn myself over at night without asking my husband for help.
I want to thank the INNOMED CLINIC for what they have done for me, after so many years of suffering and lots of money spent.
The effect of BEMER on Tinnitus
From June 2000 I experienced a ringing in my ear as a result of an extremely emotionally stressful period in my family life.
At first I did not notice the ringing but as the months passed I become more conscious of it. I then went to an ENT specialist who assured me that there was no clinical abnormality, however that the ringing or buzzing was something I would have to live with. Since then I have used various types of therapy to address this problem, with varied success.
I then read about the Magnetic Field Therapy and once I established where I would receive the treatment, and made an appointment 3 weeks ago. My initial response after the 1st appointment was that I felt more energized and was able to manage my stress much better. As the 2nd week of treatment proceeded I noticed my sleep patterns had improved and together with better energy levels, felt that my Tinnitus was under better management. 3 Weeks later I can honestly say that the buzzing in my ear seems to have lessened by 25% and because it is stress related, I am conscious of the buzzing when under stress.
Since Tinnitus is neurological and it seems limbic, I believe that once all the factors around the symptom is address i.e. exhaustion, and better sleeping patterns, the Tinnitus is then addressed.
I hope to continue with the BEMER should I find that the condition continues but does not improve. I would appreciate any research findings using BEMER in the treatment of Tinnitus.

Hi, I’m Kenny Roberts and I am an average league tennis player. My 15-year-old daughter, Carmen is a very good tournament player.
She was junior S.A. doubles champion u/12 in 1998 as well as in the top five in singles. She was always playing one or another kind of injury. The last two years her injuries got very bad and she was on and off the court. We went to many doctors, specialists and physiotherapists, but to no avail. We even went to a witch doctor. Nothing helped.
In the meantime I was also suffering from a shoulder problem and went the same route as Carmen. Nothing helped.
Playing tennis is very tough on the muscles and joints, and we were at our wits end. Must we stop playing tennis or start playing with our left hand? Then I saw the advert for another type of treatment - Electro-Magnetic Field Therapy. At first I was very skeptical. Why would this treatment work? Eventually after a couple of weeks I decided to phone them. I told them that I was very skeptical because of past experiences.
How wrong I was! After only 7 treatments each we could already feel the difference. After about two weeks of treatments we felt no pain. As a precautionary measure we are still having treatment.
Hopefully we will be training at 100% soon. I believe this type of treatment will also help for a lot of other people with injuries or sickness.
We are really grateful and thankful for the friendly and always helpful staff at Innomed, Claremont.
We are really looking forward to a pain free future, thanks to you.
Regards
Kenny Roberts
Dear Innomed
Just to say how very much I appreciate your gesture in giving me complimentary treatments after by first 10 sessions were over.
I sincerely hope that on completion I’ll be fit and well again and a good example, as well as a good advertisement of how successful the Electro Magnetic treatments can be.
Thanks again and kindest regards.

I received the BEMER NEWS today, and after having read the letters from a happy BEMER user I think that my own story is worth telling.
I am a retired Pharmacist suffering from Poly-arthritis Nodosa. I had a reconstructive operation to my right knie after I suffered major damage when a horse threw me. I developed a septic arthritis postoperative and was bedridden for 7 months. I was on massive drug doses after being diagnosed with the aforementioned condition (80mg Cortisone - 100mg Endoxan (cytostatic) as well as NSAID is daily). I was frequently hospitalized and the Orthopaedic surgeon advised me that a knee replacement was inevitable.
My wife had a back operation 2 years ago and during October 2002 she developed major complications. She was in constant severe pain and could not sit for more than 5 minutes at a time and hardly slept at all. After an MRI-scan a Neurosurgeon advised major surgery with fusion of 5 vertebrae. It was scheduled for 4.12.2002. We are both keen on keeping fit in spite of our problems and walked 2-3kms 5 times per week in spite of the discomfort and pain. I heard about the BEMER system from a colleague and attended the BEMER presentation and training session in Mid Rand during the latter part of November 2002. I was quite impressed by the possibilities that the presenter outlined and bought a BEMER unit for my own use. The instrument was delivered to me in Pretoria on 26.11.2002. We started immediately with an intensive treatment schedule.
Now the wonderful news!!!! Both my wife and I experienced an immediate beneficial response. We took the instrument with when we visited our kids in Cape Town for Christmas so we could continue treatment. We visited Kirstenbosch Gardens and speculated on climbing the JC Smuts trail but it was too late and we returned to Bellville. We mentioned our idea to our children and they thought we were a bit dilly. We thought it to be a challenge and on Monday 30.12.2002 we attempted our “assault” on Table Mountain. We set off from Kloof Nek at 08h00, walked the route passing under the Cable Way and climbed to the top via Platteklip Gorge, reaching the summit at 13h10. We were absolutely ecstatic and our children could not believe it. We took the cable car down and after a nice hot shower we both hand an M2 treatment and a good nap. The most unbelievable aspect is that we had NO PAIN OR STIFF MUSCLES THE NEXT DAY!!!!! We are 66 and 57 years old respectively.
Since my return I have started a clinic treating 9 patients at the moment with absolutely marvellous and sometimes unbelievable results. We are pleased with our BEMER and recommend it far and wide. Two of my friends have bought BEMERs due to the wonderful results we have had with ours.
Kind Regards
Bossie & Hester Boshoff.
Amputation wound treatment
My daughter, Megan, was involved in a motor vehicle accident on the 17 November 2001. Her right leg was seriously injured. In fact, it was half amputated at the scene of the accident. She was rushed to Milnerton Medi-Clinic where a 6 hour operation was performed to try and save her leg. The main problem was that her artery was severed. A plastic artery was inserted, but unfortunately a few hours later blood clots formed not allowing blood flow to her foot and her foot “died”. Amputation of the lower limb was performed immediately, which took another 4 hours.
The next few weeks were very difficult as Megan’s phantom pain caused her great distress. The medication prescribed for her did not seem to help. Three weeks after her accident her grandmother (her best friend) passed away, a very trying time for us all.
In the beginning of January her wound became infected and there was an area of about 7cms in length, 2cms in width and 1 cm in depth that caused the plastic surgeon concern. I had to take Megan to him twice a week for check ups. Instead of her wound closing, it was “bursting” open. He then mentioned that he might have to take Megan back into theatre. I could not allow this to happen as Megan (and )) would emotionally not cope with yet another theatre session.
I was referred to the Innomed Clinic and we attended the very same day. Even after as little as three sessions we could see a very definite improvement. By the time we had to see the plastic surgeon again, Megan has had five sessions of Magnetic Field Therapy. He was amazed at the improvement. No more theatre!
We have been attending every day since, with very positive results. Her wound is now 4cms in length and about 0,5cms in depth. She never had the courage to look at her leg, but now that she knows it is improving, not only does she look at it, but also she inspects it! She would never show anybody her wounds, but now all her friends and our friends have to have a look. She is so excited. No words can describe the gratefulness and thankfulness for the quality of life restored to Megan.
Thank you, Cheree.
From Dr A. te Reh: German e-mail translated.
Each patient’s specific conditions and circumstances were documented by means of the same questionnaire that is used in the Innomed Clinic. My systematic keeping of records started on 1.07.2002.
1.July 1st. Female patient, 72 years of age, complained of strong headaches and suffered from shingles over the left eye and forehead (N. Trigeminus). Eyelids were red and swollen. Standard treatment with Acyclovir brought no relief or improvement. In the hope of not doing any damage I suggested additional BEMER 3000 treatment (Levels M3 and M10). After only three days of therapy the pain, reddishness and swollen condition were completely gone!
2.July 29th. Female patient (30yrs) in a management position at a large German corporation complained about chronic headaches and sleeping disorders. She used Myprodol more or less regularly for the last three years. After five days of daily BEMER 3000 treatment (M10/P4 in the neck) she is complaint free and sleeps well without any medication.
3.July 29th. A friend of mine was involved in a serious motorbike accident and spent 10 days in ICU with collapsed lungs, fractured ribs as well as a number of other bone fractures. The patient was of course feeling very down”, too. After five BEMER 3000 sessions (M3/M10) the patient said that he hadn’t slept so well, felt so well and in good spirits for a long time, despite the broken bones and his overall condition. He had no more pain and a pair of rosy cheeks!
4.A seventy year old male suffered a stroke at the beginning of July. With some friendly persuasion from me, the patient underwent daily BEMER 3000 therapy at the Westville Hospital. After only one week of daily BEMER 3000 therapy the patient could recall specific bank account details and discuss them with his wife. Two days later the paralyzed leg started moving again and he was able to touch his knew. With the aid of appropriate physiotherapy, he can now also stand upright on his own. The hospital staff said that they had never seen such a fast recovery and healing. At present the patient is well and alert.
The BEMER 3000 Therapy is without a doubt a new dimension in patient medical treatment. Patients are generally more co-operative and their improved medical condition promotes a mind-set for a healthier lifestyle too.
For me as a medical practitioner, this presents a very positive professional experience to heal y patients more effectively.

First treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 3.
Found easing of pain.
11/12/2001

This was the first time I have not taken celebrex and pain tablets at night in 18 months. No constant pain only with certain movements.
12/12/2001
Third treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 6.
Cannot believe improvement, I keep expecting pain and there is none - only with sudden movements. Still find discomfort, but nothing noticeable. No tablets taken.
13/12/2001
Fourth treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 6-7
No pain and no tablets.
18/12/2001
Fifth treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 7-8
Still no pain, movements easier. No tablets.
19/12/2001
Sixth treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 8-9
No pain, I am able to move my right arm freely - still some discomfort with sudden movements. No tablets.
20/12/2001
Seventh treatment: 16 minutes x 1 level 9-10.
Last treatment; found movements almost pain free (still discomfort with sudden movements). I have started sewing again, cleaned house, stove, windows (have not been able to do so in more than a year!) and test of all tests - ironing - with no ill effects. There was no pain, any sleepless nights because my arem ached so. No tablets.
To me this was a miracle to do simple things without fear of pain. Dr Oliver van Blerk can verify that I have had a problem for approximately 18 months. Although I could ill afford paying for pain and antiflam tablets, there was no choice, to keep functioning daily that was the only way, and as my Medicure limit had been exhausted.
It was recommended that I see a specialist to undergo an operation to my shoulder/arm, but that is no longer required. Thank God I waited!

Austrian Paralympics
At a special function as part of the 2000 Paralympics on the 23rd September 2000 in the city hall of the Austrian town of Enns, Vice Chancellor Susanne Riess - Passer receives the BEMER sponsorship cheque on behalf of the Austrian Paralympic team from BEMER representative Karl Sapper.
The first paralympics took place in Rome in 1960 with 400 sportsmen and sportswomen from 21 competing nations. Only 40 years later, 4000 participants from 125 nations converged in Sydney to compete for paralympic gold. Austria was represented by 50 participants who competed in 11 events.
The venue of the 2000 Paralympics was Sydney, Australia and it took place over the period 18th - 29th October. The Games drew 650 000 spectators who saw participants compete in 18 disciplines. Austria sent 50 sportsmen and sportswomen and about 30 functionaries and helpers who were all present at the festivities at Enns.
Andrea Scherney is an Austrian athlete who is a graduate sport scientist, University lecturer and the Chairperson of the Austrian Handicapped Sport Association. She also holds the World Champion title for shot put (10,82m) and long jump (4,38). Andrea Scherney is an amputee below the left knee and has been voted Handicapped Spotswoman of the Year 1999.
For the men this distinction falls on to Engineer Martin Legner. He is the world’s number one in tennis doubles and rated fourth in the wheelchair singles.
The vision - impaired Judoka Walter Hani in the time before the 2000 Paralympics is hopeful for Gold. During 1996 Atlanta Games he was the Paralympics Champion and has reached European and World Championship placings in the years before.
Austrian athletes compete in Boccia, Archery, Weight lifting, Cyclin, Horse riding, Swimming, Shooting and Table Tennis.
The costs for organising and holding the Paralympics preparations and sending the teams to Australia, including accommodation, travel etc came to about 2,9 million Austrian Shillings. This was raised solely by the Austrian Paralympic Committee through sponsoring.
Austria received 15 medals during the XI. Paralympics in Sydney. On the very last day of the competition, Austrian Christoph Etzlsdorfer achieved a dramatic second place by means of a photo finish in T54 Class and Thomas Geierspichler achieved third place.
In the T46 Class race Peter Zsifkovits received 7th place, Hubert Martin was placed 9th. In the T52 Class Gottfried Ferchl finished in 31 place and Bernard Eitzinger achieved the 6th place in shot put with 10,16 m.
The returning Sydney delegation was received and welcomed in the VIP lounge at Vienna Airport. Overall, Austria received two Gold, seven Silver and six Bronze medals and was placed 39th in the national placings. The Game’s Hosts, Autralia received 63 Gold, 39 Silver and 47 Bronze Medals.

Why the BEMER 3000 is always in my hand luggage:
Fast regeneration after hard training sessions and championship races is very important for me so as not to risk injury to muscles especially.
Strengthened Immune system: My aim is to be top fit in terms of my health and the BEMER 3000Therapy System gives me solid support in this regard.
Competition start-up help: By warming up on the BEMER 3000 I save about 1/3 of the energy usually required for a warm-up; this is energy I now have available for the actual competition.
Therapy and rehabilitation: In the event of having injured myself, the BEMER 3000 assists me in very fast regeneration and getting back to performance by applying the IA to the injured area.
My recommendations are for the BEMER 3000Therapy System,

Claudia Pechstein
Olympic Gold Medal Champion in Speed Ice Skating
“I apply the BEMER 3000 during training for accelerated regeneration. This is especially important during intensive training periods and high altitude training.
Furthermore I am under the impression that the fast regeneration also stabilises my performance level and influences my immune system positively so my body is more resistant to sickness.
The shorter regeneration periods also imply a lowering of my injury risk and lowers the effects of over training.
In my opinion, the use of the BEMER 3000Therapy System makes sense and I can highly recommend the use of the BEMER”.
VfB Stuttgart (Premier League Soccer Club)
The BEMER 3000 Therapy System is mainly used to achieve rapid treatment for sport injuries. Accelerated regeneration and healing processes imply less absenteeism due to injuries, reduced loss of performance due to the shorter healing cycle and players can be available for playing important games faster.
The BEMER 3000 Therapy is a permanent feature of all our players, for injuries and recovery and sustained health. Most times we use the IA to good effect. We are very glad to have discovered the BEMER System and we certainly would never like to be without it.
Dr med Thomas Frölich, Team Physician
EHC Straubing
The BEMER 3000 Therapy System has passed all tests and expectations brilliantly for our sports persons. The players were most impressed with the effectiveness, the easy transportability and the ease of handling of the BEMER. Just about everybody in the team (>90%) makes use of the BEMER Therapy. From a physiological viewpoint as well as from a Physicians perspective the use of the BEMER 3000 Therapy in high performance sport is a MUST for all therapeutical applications to ensure competitive success.

René Marxer
9x Liechtenstein Junior Champion and frequently under the top three in Swiss Cup Races.
“ Since the beginning of July 2000 I use the BEMER 3000 therapy at least twice a day. I have noticed that I maintain my high level of performance and that regeneration after intensive training is significantly reduced.
Especially with the onset of exhaustion and stressed muscles I experience a fast, relaxing regeneration and feel refreshed. Some time ago I fell during a cycle race and suffered bad lacerations. After treating the injuries with the IA twice a day they healed significantly faster and I experienced much less pain than usual during the healing period. I am excited about the BEMER 3000 Therapy and can highly recommend it.”

REPORT ON BEMER 3000 USE ON PARA-DRESSAGE RIDERS
SEPTEMBER 2006
A team of five physically disabled riders attended Para-Dressage training for one week at the South Bucks Riding for the Disabled Center in the United Kingdom. These riders were given the opportunity to use the BEMER 3000 during that week. None of them had any prior experience with or exposure to the BEMER.
The Riders
The riders had different disabilities and different levels of impairment.
The most disabled rider is a Cerebral Palsy Spastic Quadriplegic i.e. he has spasticity in all four limbs. In addition to this he has arthritis in his hips and has one hip that dislocates. He is wheel chair bound and performs walk only dressage movements when horse riding.
Two of the other riders also have cerebral palsy but more mildly and in different forms. One has Athetoid Cerebral Palsy and struggles with the co-ordination of her movements and her balance. The other is also spastic but mainly in her legs with very limited involvement of her arms.
One rider was involved in a motor vehicle accident which has left her with limited use of one side of her body i.e. she is hemi-plegic.
The other rider has a spinal cord injury also as a result of a motor vehicle accident. He has limited use of the muscles and limited sensation in his lower limbs and also uses a wheelchair. When riding he trots and canters.
The opportunity to use the BEMER on this trip was great as these young riders (they are aged between 13 and 21 years) had to deal with fatigue not only from traveling and walking long distances but they were also riding twice a day when some of them only ride once a week at home. There was the added nervous tension of riding unfamiliar horses and receiving instruction from someone whom they did not know. They were also travelling without family members.
The BEMER Program
All of the riders were instructed from the start of the trip that it would be compulsory for them to make use of the mat twice per day, once in the morning and once in the evening. The coil mat was used on level 3 each session. We arrived in the U.K on the Sunday and made use of the mat for the first time that evening. In addition to the two sessions on the coil mat, the intense applicator was also used where necessary.
The rider with the spinal cord injury arrived with a wound on his foot, that was approximately 3cm long and it was a deep wound. He had just completed a course of anti biotics to treat the infection in the wound and had an anti bacterial ointment to treat it while we were away. When it began to bleed after being bumped we decided to treat it with the intense applicator. We used it on P1 on Monday morning, P2 that evening and P3 every morning and evening for the rest of the week. By the Wednesday morning the wound looked much better and at the end of the week the sore had reduced to about 1cm wide and was only skin deep. His mother say that those wounds usually take him weeks and sometimes months to heal, she was so impressed that she continued to bring him to use the BEMER once we returned from the U.K.
The rider with the arthritis in his hips takes medication for joint mobility and to reduce his pain levels two or even three times a day when he is riding a lot. He had his medication morning and evening on the Monday and was still struggling with pain so decided that he was going to take his medication with him to the stables to use mid day too. On the Monday evening we started using the intense applicator on his sore hip morning and evening on P4. On the Tuesday morning he was in pain but the pain levels had begun to reduce before he even took his medication. On the Wednesday morning he used medication for the last time. He had not used it again even a week after he returned, despite the discomfort of the flight and he has been riding.
Another rider really battled with sore muscles in her thighs from riding without stirrups which she is unused to. She initially used the intense applicator on P2 on the Tuesday evening and then at her request we used the applicator on each thigh again each evening but on P3.
The Rider’s Response to the BEMER Use
Each rider was asked to prepare a short report on the training that they received and to include in that a comment on their use of the BEMER 3000. These are the responses that were received.
“The BEMER showed a remarkable change in my pain level and I would definitely benefit from it” - wheelchair bound rider with arthritic hips
“The BEMER helped with general stiffness, pain and concentrated pain as well” - Cerebral Palsy rider who used Intense applicator on her thigh muscles
“The BEMER made a big difference to my sore and also I did not get stiff after riding which I normally do”
“It was very relaxing using the BEMER”
A point of interest for me was that the one rider did not make any reference to her use of the BEMER so perhaps she felt that it had no effect, which is fine, but what I find interesting is that I have roomed with this young rider before and she is difficult to wake up in the morning and grumpy for the first half an hour or so. The BEMER was placed on her bed each time because it was closest to the plug point. I asked her to roll over, moved the BEMER mat under her each morning and then she did the first session. I never had a problem getting her up to give the next person a turn and she was her usual cheerful self right away!
My perception is that the BEMER mat made a significant difference to the energy levels and comfort of our riders but that the difference is made gradually and almost unnoticeably and you only realize it’s effects when you look back or compare to previous similar experiences. The Intense Applicator on specific areas had a relatively rapid and remarkable impact.

This is Al and Lindsay Garcia from South Ogden, Ut. We would like to share our experience with the Bemer 3000 in hopes that it may help those in a similar situation. We'll start by giving you a little bit of our history. We have been married for 6 1/2 years. About 4 years ago, we decided it was time to start a family. Of course as kids, you are engrained with the idea that it comes naturally to anyone and everyone, but to us it didn't. We tried faithfully for 3 years without success. After being told by specialists that we had very little chance of conceiving naturally, we decided to give in-vitro fertilization a shot. You can imagine our elation when we found out that not only were we pregnant, but we were expecting twins! At about 20 weeks, we were told that we were having a boy and a girl. Everything was absolutely perfect. The shopping and nesting began! Then came our 27 week ultrasound. We went in for a routine ultrasound and nothing could have prepared us for what we were told. They told us that our little boy, who was baby B, was not growing at the same pace as our little girl. She was 2 lbs. 3 oz. and he was only 1 lbs. 7 oz. The weight discrepancy at that stage of gestation is very large. They said that he will only continue to get comparitively much smaller as time goes on, until he's too small to survive. Through further doppler testing, they said that the reason he was not growing was that he was getting very insufficient blood flow through his umbilical cord from the placenta. They said that it was severe enough that if it were any worse at all, they would recommend taking our babies right then and admitting them to the NICU. They warned that if they took them at 27 weeks, they could face many mental and neurological issues. We were faced with a very tough decision, as we would hate to take our girl out
