EMTT Therapy: Non-Invasive Pain Relief at Upper Cervical of Sioux Falls
Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy
At Upper Cervical of Sioux Falls, we are proud to offer Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT), an innovative, non-invasive treatment designed to alleviate pain and promote healing for various musculoskeletal conditions affecting residents throughout Sioux Falls, S.D., and the surrounding area. As the first clinic in the Sioux Falls area to provide this advanced therapy, we are committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions to our patients.

What is EMTT?
EMTT is a groundbreaking therapy that utilizes high-energy electromagnetic pulses to stimulate cellular activity and enhance the body’s natural healing processes. It is a largely risk-free and side-effect-free method. Unlike traditional magnetic field therapies, EMTT operates at higher oscillation frequencies and magnetic field strengths, allowing for deeper tissue penetration and more effective treatment outcomes.
If you are suffering from chronic joint pain, persistent back or neck discomfort, inflammation from overuse injuries, or the lingering effects of arthritis, EMTT could provide significant relief by targeting the underlying cellular dysfunction.
Unlike ultrasound, TENS/electrical stimulation, or traditional PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy, EMTT utilizes higher energy magnetic pulses and special oscillation frequencies that allow deeper tissue penetration and more robust cellular stimulation. This makes EMTT especially effective for joint degeneration, deep muscular injuries, herniated discs, and persistent inflammation where surface therapies often fall short.
How does it work?
As a patient, you will find the therapy very comfortable. During an EMTT session, a therapy loop is positioned over the targeted area while you remain fully clothed—direct skin contact is not necessary. You may feel a gentle pulsing or mild warmth during treatment, but most patients describe it as comfortable and relaxing. High-energy magnetic pulses are transmitted into your body, penetrating deep into tissues to stimulate cellular repair and regeneration. Each session lasts between 5 and 15 minutes, with approximately 6 sessions recommended, depending on the severity of your condition and your response to therapy.
EMTT treatment can have a positive effect on chemical reactions in pathologically altered cells. The cell metabolism can be reactivated and physiological processes can be normalized.
EMTT is backed by clinical studies showing its positive effects on cell regeneration, reduction in inflammation, and improved mobility. The technology has a strong safety profile with minimal risk, as it uses non-ionizing electromagnetic energy at regulated frequencies. However, we always tailor therapy individually and evaluate your full medical history to ensure safety.
Benefits of EMTT Therapy
- Non-Invasive and Comfortable: EMTT is a largely risk-free and side-effect-free method. Patients often find the therapy comfortable, as it does not require direct skin contact or invasive procedures.
- Effective for Various Conditions: EMTT has been shown to be effective in treating a range of musculoskeletal disorders, including osteoarthritis, herniated discs, and chronic back pain.
- Deep Tissue Penetration: The high oscillation frequency and magnetic field strength allow EMTT to reach deeper tissues compared to traditional therapies, enhancing its effectiveness.
Typical conditions where EMTT is used
- Joint disorders
- Osteoarthritis in knees, hips, hands, shoulders, and elbows
- Herniated discs
- Spondyloarthritis affecting vertebral joints
- Pain management
- Chronic pain conditions
- Back pain and lower back pain (lumbago)
- Muscle tension and nerve root pain (radiculopathy)
- Sports injuries
- (Chronic) inflammation of tendons and joints
- Tendon overuse syndromes
- Inflammation of the pubic bone (osteitis pubis)

Is EMTT right for you?
EMTT is suitable for many people interested in natural, non-invasive pain relief—those dealing with chronic joint or back pain, sports injuries, tendon/ligament inflammation, or osteoarthritis. However, if you are pregnant, have implanted electrical devices (e.g. pacemakers, insulin pumps, cochlear or retinal implants, bladder pacemakers, and neuro stimulators), active cancerous tumors, or open wounds in the treatment area, such as tumors, infected areas, inflamed areas, or skin eruptions, this therapy may not be appropriate. We require a full medical history review to determine whether EMTT is safe and suitable for your specific situation.
