Below is an exerpt from the actual clinical study of the device they reference in the Tweet.

Reduced pain. Faster healing.
What's not to like about it?


Results: Pulsed electromagnetic fields produced a 57 percent decrease in mean pain scores at 1 hour (p < 0.01) and a 300 percent decrease at 5 hours (p < 0.001), persisting to 48 hours postoperatively in the active versus the control group, along with a concomitant 2.2-fold reduction in narcotic use in active patients (p = 0.002). Mean IL-1ß concentration in the wound exudates of treated patients was 275 percent lower (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences found for tumor necrosis factor-a, vascular endothelial growth factor, or fibroblast growth factor-2 concentrations.

Conclusions: Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy significantly reduced postoperative pain and narcotic use in the immediate postoperative period. The reduction of IL-1ß in the wound exudate supports a mechanism that may involve manipulation of the dynamics of endogenous IL-1ß in the wound bed by means of a pulsed electromagnetic field effect on nitric oxide signaling, which could impact the speed and quality of wound repair.
