BioCharger NG

A tabletop device with glowing plasma tubes that the maker says projects light, frequencies and pulsed electromagnetic fields into the room. It is not a medical device, and you sit nearby while it runs.

How it works

The science, in plain English

Maker’s description

Four energies in one device

The maker describes combining light, pulsed electromagnetic fields, frequencies and pulsed electric fields in preset programs. No published, peer-reviewed study has tested this device.

02

PEMF and cell signaling

Lab and animal studies on other devices suggest pulsed magnetic fields can affect cell signaling and inflammatory markers. Reviewers call for larger human trials.

03

Dose and distance matter

Published studies place measured devices on or near the body. The field strength where you sit, 3 to 5 feet away, has not been published, so that research cannot simply be applied here.

What the research suggests

Potential benefits

Limited evidence

A quiet, relaxing session

Some people find the session calming, but no controlled study has measured this.

Promising, other devices

Joint comfort, other devices

A Cochrane review found targeted PEMF devices probably ease osteoarthritis pain modestly. This has not been shown for BioCharger.

How we grade the research. Stronger evidence means several controlled trials or a meta-analysis. Promising means some controlled trials with small or mixed results. Early research means small, lab or animal studies. Limited evidence means little or no independent research.

How it helps you

Where it fits in your plan

Every session is logged next to your labs, brain map and body scan, so at your 90-day re-test you can see what actually moved.

If you

You want a screen free break

A session gives you about 15 quiet minutes. We present it as an experience, not a treatment.

If you

You are curious about PEMF

We will walk you through what the research on other devices does and does not show.

If you

You have joint pain

Talk with your doctor about targeted PEMF devices that have actually been studied for it.

Session protocol

What to expect

01

Session length

About 10 to 15 minutes.

02

Frequency

The maker suggests 3 to 5 sessions a week. No study supports a particular schedule.

03

How it feels

Nothing touches you. You sit 3 to 5 feet away while the tubes light up, and up to four people can share a session.

Before your first session. Not for use during pregnancy or with metal implants in the head. If you have a pacemaker, defibrillator or insulin pump, you stay at least 6 feet away. Talk with your physician first if you have epilepsy or use medicine patches, and use an eye mask if you are light sensitive.

Straight talk

What the research does not show

Test first. Guess never. We do not claim it raises cellular voltage, speeds recovery, improves sleep or treats any condition, and we do not borrow results from other PEMF devices. It is a wellness experience.
