Your visit
Warmth spreads through the mat beneath you as you lie still, fully clothed.
After a short conversation, your therapist sets the heat and the time, from 20 minutes to an hour, and a first session may run shorter.
At Legian you rest before a Himalayan salt wall, and nothing else is asked of you.
Aftercare
There is no downtime, so the rest of your day is yours. Any easing of muscular discomfort may take repeated sessions. Results vary.
Research suggests some PEMF protocols ease selected musculoskeletal pain, in muscles, bones and joints, for a short time. 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.

The mat pulses as it warms
Most people mainly feel the warmth. Beneath it, coils inside the mat switch an electromagnetic field on and off at a low frequency.
That is the PEMF in the name, short for pulsed electromagnetic field, and it sets the mat apart from a static magnet.
The crystals warm with the mat, and its 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. To be clear with you, claims that these ions improve immunity or bring other medical benefits are unproven.
Questions people ask
It should feel warm, never uncomfortably hot, and we can change the temperature during your session. If you feel excessive heat, dizziness, nausea, pain, palpitations or discomfort, just say, and we stop.
There is no strong evidence that a PEMF Biomat removes toxins. Your liver and kidneys already do most of your body’s waste processing.
Yes, it pairs well with selected massages, Vitamin IV therapy or other wellness treatments. Your therapist will suggest which, and in what order.
