PAPIMI  THERAPY

The PAP-IMI machine is a high-tech, non-invasive, electromagnetic therapeutic device, which was invented by a Greek mathematician and physicist, Dr Panos Pappas.  (PAP-IMI: “PAP” for Pappas; “IMI” = Ionic Magnetic Induction).   

The PAPIMI device creates a pulsed electromagnetic field which is applied to different parts of the body, and which may help stimulate and activate the normal healing process and the growth and repair of tissue.  Amazing results have been shown in the relief of pain, reduction of swelling and increased range of motion, as well as in a great variety of physical or health disorders. PAPIMI treatment can provide lasting biological results, and has been used successfully in Europe for the past 12+ years.  It is even used by professional sports teams in Europe, U.S.A and Canada for pain relief and healing, and the Austrian Olympic team uses the PAPIMI device as part of their preparation for the Games. 

PAPIMI therapy is unique in that it merges traditional and non-traditional medical care.  The non-traditional aspect is that it harnesses the body’s own ability to heal itself; however the PAPIMI technology has also gone through scientifically rigorous clinical trials, with successes and patient benefits reported in many prestigious medical journals. 

Some Conditions treated by PAPIMI:

 

v    Aches associated with aging

v    Allergies

v    Asthma

v    Athletic Injuries

v    Arthritis

v    Back Pain

v    Bladder Problems

v    Burns

v    Cancer Pain

v    Carpel Tunnel

v    Chronic Fatigue

v    Emphysema

v    Endometriosis

v    Fibroids

v    Fibromyalgia

v    Gout

v    Inflammation

v    Insomnia

v    Joint injuries

v    Multiple chemical sensitivities

v    PMS

v    Post operative recovery

v    Sciatica

v    Tendonitis

v    Whiplash 

Improvements are noticed in:

 

1.     Cellular detoxification

2.     Sense of well-being

3.     Recovery time

4.     Pain of many varieties

5.     Mental clarity and focus, including improvement of memory

 

How Does the PAPIMI Work?

Every cell in the body has an electrical charge, giving an electrical signal.  Disease, aging or  injury can disrupt these signals, and when tissues are stressed, the cells’ electrical signal is diminished.  The result of this is that the body is unable to repair the affected tissue, leading to pain, inflammation and loss of function. 

The PAPIMI’s Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field is believed to help raise the cellular electrical signal, which may therefore help the healing process.  It induces negative ions into the body at the cellular and sub-cellular level, which help the electrical charge of the cells to increase, and may therefore accelerate healing.   

The Procedure 

The procedure is non-toxic, non-invasive and usually painless. (Discomfort may be felt in damaged tissues, which will help to pinpoint the problem.)  The person to be treated remains fully clothed and lies on a massage table.  The transmitter loop is then passed over various parts of the body, emitting an ionic magnetic field in short pulses.  These electromagnetic pulses penetrate deep tissue, passing completely through the body.   

Will it Help Me? 

Possibly.  Every person responds differently and a lot of people respond positively and dramatically to PAPIMI treatments. 

Scientific Description of the PAPIMI Device 

The PAPIMI Device is in the same category of Electrotherapeutic devices as those of Tesla and D’Arsonval, which were very popular in hospitals and medical centres for nearly half a century, due to the amazing results they were achieving.  These devices were named (short wave) “Diathermy” Devices (those intended for deep heating), and “Electro-surgical Diathermies” (those intended for surgical needs).    

The modern scientific term for these Electrotherapeutic devices is “Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field (PEMF) Generators”.  Pulsed Coagulators and Pulsed Lasers, which have begun to re-enter the field of Physical Medicine, may be placed in the same category. 

The PAPIMI device may be formally defined as a Short Wave “Diathermy” Device intended for short time (pulsed) deep heating. 

The PAPIMI device has been trialed and researched and has had significant clinical results.  

The PAPIMI has been compared with corresponding modern devices at Health, Pain and Research Centres in the United States, North Mexico, Canada and Europe.  The PAPIMI was found to surpass all the other corresponding devices by being one hundred to one thousand times faster and more efficient.

NB: We do not use PAPIMI on pregnant women, or people with a pacemaker, certain metal implants or heart conditions.
