Crystal Tourmaline PEMF Biomat
Warmth spreads across your body as you lie still, and many people get up calm and rested. The mat beneath you holds tourmaline crystals and gives off far-infrared heat and a pulsed electromagnetic field.
- Treatment time
- 20 to 60 minutes
- Available at
- Legian · Ubud · Canggu
The mat pulses as it warms
Coils inside the mat switch the electromagnetic field on and off at a low frequency, which is the PEMF in the name and sets it apart from a static magnet. Most people mainly feel the warmth.
The crystals warm with the mat, and the far-infrared heat can relax your muscles and briefly raise blood flow where it reaches. Some biomats are sold as giving off negative ions when heated, but claims that these ions improve immunity or bring other medical benefits are unproven.
Your visit
After a short consultation you lie down, clothed, on the warmed mat (at Legian, before a Himalayan salt wall). Your therapist sets the heat and the time, from 20 minutes to an hour, and a first session may run shorter. Nothing else is asked of you.
- The pulsed field may interfere with a pacemaker, defibrillator, insulin pump, cochlear implant or neurostimulator.
- With pregnancy, epilepsy, active cancer or a bleeding disorder, ask a doctor first.
- The same goes for uncontrolled cardiovascular disease, reduced heat sensation, or a recent injury or surgery.
- Heat may not suit areas with active inflammation, impaired circulation, open wounds or reduced sensation.

- Have tired or tense muscles

Afterwards
There is no downtime, so the rest of the day is yours. Any easing of muscular discomfort may take repeated sessions. Results vary.
Research suggests some PEMF protocols ease selected musculoskeletal pain for a short time, though what is true of one device and setting is not true of every mat. The Biomat is no replacement for medical assessment, pain treatment, rehabilitation or prescribed medication.
Questions people ask
It should feel warm, never uncomfortably hot, and the temperature can be changed during your session. Say if you feel excessive heat, dizziness, nausea, pain, palpitations or discomfort, and we stop.
There is no strong evidence that a PEMF Biomat removes toxins. Your liver and kidneys do most of the body’s waste processing.
Yes, it pairs with selected massages, Vitamin IV therapy or other wellness treatments. Your therapist suggests which, and in what order.
