“We Get It - Movement Hurts, Exercise Feels Impossible, and You're Tired of Not Being Heard. That's Why We're Different: Revolutionary Non-Invasive Technology That Works When Nothing Else Has”
Why EMTT Right For You?
Imagine being able to recharge your body’s cells the same way you recharge your phone, restoring their energy so they can perform their natural healing functions. That is the power of EMTT, also known as Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy. This advanced therapy uses high-frequency magnetic fields to stimulate your cells at a deep biological level, helping them repair tissue, reduce inflammation, and support long-term recovery.
What makes EMTT especially effective is its ability to target chronic conditions that have not responded well to other treatments. Whether you are struggling with joint pain, tendon injuries, arthritis, or ongoing inflammation, EMTT helps activate your body’s own healing processes. It works without medication or surgery, offering a natural and comfortable solution for lasting pain relief.
At HealthFit in Pasadena, California, we use EMTT as part of a comprehensive regenerative therapy program designed to address the root cause of pain, not just the symptoms. If you are ready to return to the activities you enjoy, EMTT may be the solution your body needs to begin healing.
The Technology Behind the Healing
EMTT, or Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy, uses advanced electromagnetic technology designed to reach deeper layers of tissue than most traditional therapies. This non-invasive treatment generates high-frequency magnetic pulses that penetrate up to 18 centimeters into the body, targeting areas that are often difficult to reach with hands-on therapy, dry needling, or even other forms of regenerative treatment.
What makes EMTT unique is its ability to directly influence cellular function. Think of each magnetic pulse as a gentle activation signal to the cells in your muscles, tendons, joints, and surrounding tissues. These signals help improve circulation, increase metabolic activity, and stimulate the body’s natural repair systems. It is similar to giving your body’s cells a much-needed energy boost, helping them do what they were designed to do.
This deep-reaching stimulation is especially valuable in chronic conditions where tissues have become stagnant, inflamed, or resistant to healing. By recharging the energy production within the cells, EMTT helps reset and restore normal biological activity, which leads to reduced pain, improved mobility, and faster recovery. Whether you are dealing with joint degeneration, muscle strains, or tendon injuries, this technology provides a powerful and natural way to help your body heal itself from the inside out.
How Does EMTT Work?
Think of your cells like tiny batteries that have run low on charge. When this happens, healing slows and pain becomes chronic. EMTT's magnetic fields do three crucial things:
Immediate Response:
Recharges cellular energy
Reduces deep inflammation
Calms pain signals
Cellular Revitalization:
Boosts cellular metabolism
Enhances energy production
Improves tissue function
Deep Healing:
Reduces chronic inflammation
Restores cellular communication
Accelerates natural repair
The Healing Process
Your body responds to EMTT in stages:
First 24-72 Hours:
Initial cellular response
Reduced inflammation
Pain signal modification
Weeks 1-2:
Enhanced cellular function
Improved tissue health
Increased mobility

Frequently Asked Questions
EMTT at HealthFit, Pasadena, CA
What is EMTT?
EMTT stands for Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy. A loop-shaped applicator sends high-energy magnetic pulses through your clothes and into the tissue below. Those pulses act on cells directly, nudging them to repair, lowering inflammation, and improving how the tissue handles load. It's painless, there's no contact with the skin, and sessions are short.
How is EMTT different from PEMF mats or the magnets you see online?
Power. EMTT delivers many times the energy of consumer PEMF devices, in a much higher frequency range, which is what lets it reach deep joints and bone. The research on EMTT comes from the same company (Storz Medical) that pioneered clinical shockwave, and it's studied on real conditions like knee arthritis and low back pain, not general wellness.
Does EMTT hurt?
No. Most people feel nothing or a light tingling. You stay clothed, the applicator hovers over the area, and you can read or check your phone during the session. It's the gentlest tool we own.
What conditions does EMTT help?
Osteoarthritis of the knee, hip and hands, chronic low back pain and disc problems, tendon problems that won't heal, bone stress injuries and slow-healing fractures, nerve-related pain, and post-surgical swelling. It's especially useful when the problem is deep, or when the area is too sore for hands-on work or shockwave.
How long is a session, and how many do I need?
A session is about 15 minutes. Plans typically run 4 to 6 weeks, and your evaluation tells us how often within that. EMTT is often paired with shockwave in the same visit: shockwave to reset the tissue, EMTT to calm inflammation and support repair.
Is EMTT the same as EMTT plus shockwave, or do I choose one?
They're different tools for different jobs, and they work best together. Shockwave is the intense one that breaks up stuck tissue. EMTT is the quiet one that supports healing at the cell level and reaches deeper. Your plan may use one, the other, or both, based on what we find in your assessment.
Who should not have EMTT?
Anyone with a pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, insulin pump or other electronic implant, and anyone who is pregnant. Metal implants like joint replacements or screws are generally fine. We screen for all of this before your first session.
Will EMTT fix my arthritis?
It won't grow new cartilage, and anyone who promises that is overselling. What the research shows is meaningful drops in pain and improvements in function for many people with knee and hip arthritis, especially when it's combined with strength work. Results vary. We track yours with re-testing so you know what's actually changing.
