NEO Flux PEMF for Pain Relief
Living with pain that won’t let up? Our high-intensity PEMF sends deep, pulsing energy right where it hurts, to ease pain, calm inflammation, and support recovery. Fully clothed, no downtime, and just 20 minutes.
Why high-intensity PEMF?
PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field. The NEO Flux delivers strong, pulsing magnetic waves that pass through the body and reach muscle and deep tissue without needles, heat, or downtime. Most people feel a mild pulsing or a gentle muscle twitch, nothing more intense than that.
PEMF has been studied for decades, and FDA-cleared PEMF devices have long been used to help heal bone fractures. The NEO Flux is a general wellness device we use for one job in particular: helping you get on top of ongoing pain.
Benefits of PEMF
Based on general PEMF research and use, people commonly report changes in two areas:
Comfort & mobility
- Less pain in the area being treated
- Better range of motion and less stiffness
- Faster recovery after activity or injury
- Calmer inflammation
Overall wellbeing
- Better sleep quality
- More energy through the day
- Support for circulation
- A greater sense of relaxation
What to expect
Come well hydrated, it helps your body respond. Here’s how a session goes:
- Settle in. You lie down, fully clothed, while we position a loop or pad over the area we’re focusing on together. You’ll set aside your phone, watch, and anything electronic first, since the high-intensity pulse can affect them.
- The device runs. For about 20 minutes you may feel a mild pulsing or gentle muscle twitch. We start low and adjust to your comfort. It shouldn’t hurt.
- Back to your day. No downtime, no recovery period. Most people head straight into whatever’s next. Drink plenty of water afterward.
Pricing & packages
All sessions are 20 minutes. Consistency is what makes the difference, so most people getting ahead of pain come two to three times a week for the first month, then settle into a lighter maintenance rhythm.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single Session | One 20-minute session, pay as you go. Try it once or add it to another visit. | $50 |
| Pain Relief Kickstart | 8 sessions to use within 30 days ($35 each). Come 2 to 3 times a week. Extra sessions 30% off all month, plus $50 neurofeedback (reg. $75) the whole month. | $280 |
| 5-Pack | 5 sessions ($40 each), good for 90 days. For maintenance and occasional visits. | $200 |
Why the Kickstart includes discounted neurofeedback
Ongoing pain keeps your nervous system stuck in a revved-up, dysregulated state, which can make pain feel louder and recovery slower. Neurofeedback helps your brain settle back into balance. That’s why Kickstart members get $50 neurofeedback sessions (reg. $75) for the full 30 days, so you can work on the pain and the nervous system behind it at the same time.

PEMF FAQs
Who can benefit from PEMF?
Anyone dealing with ongoing pain, stiffness, or slow recovery. People come to us for back and joint pain, arthritis, post-activity soreness, old injuries that linger, and pain that disrupts their sleep. Many pair it with the rest of their recovery routine.
Does it hurt? What does it feel like?
No. Most people feel a mild pulsing sensation or a gentle muscle twitch. We start every session at a low intensity and adjust from there based on your comfort.
How many sessions does it take to feel a difference?
It varies. Some people feel relief or deep relaxation right away. For most, it builds with consistent sessions over a few weeks, which is why the Kickstart is built around coming two to three times a week for a full month rather than a one-time visit.
How is this different from your other PEMF services?
We offer PEMF in a few forms, and they do different jobs. The Hot Gemstone PEMF Mat is gentle and low-intensity, meant for relaxation and easing tension. The BioCharger and AmpCoil use PEMF as one part of broader frequency and energy sessions, alongside light, sound, and other inputs. The NEO Flux is our high-intensity device, and it’s the one we reach for when the goal is targeting a specific area of pain. Not sure which fits? Ask us and we’ll point you to the right one.
Can I combine it with my other Brain Spa services?
Yes. PEMF fits right alongside neurofeedback, lymphatic drainage, red light, and anything else you already do with us.
Does the FDA approve it?
The NEO Flux is a general wellness device, not a medical device. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. FDA-cleared PEMF devices have been used for decades for specific medical purposes such as bone healing, but this page describes general wellness use only.
Does insurance cover it?
It isn’t covered by insurance because we are not medical providers. We can charge your HSA/FSA card.
Who should check with a doctor first
PEMF isn’t right for everyone. It isn’t recommended, or should only be used with medical guidance, if you:
- Are under 18 (the NEO Flux is a high-intensity device we offer to adults only)
- Have a pacemaker, defibrillator, cochlear implant, insulin pump, or other implanted electronic device
- Are pregnant
- Have a seizure disorder
- Are actively bleeding or have a bleeding disorder
- Have cancer or an active tumor
- Have an active infection
- Have a serious heart condition
Our intake form asks about these directly. Please answer honestly. They matter for your safety.
The research behind PEMF
PEMF therapy has real research behind it. A 2025 multi-center randomized clinical trial found significant improvement in joint and soft tissue pain, along with reduced pain-medication use. Reviews of knee osteoarthritis and soft tissue injury studies point the same direction: less pain and better function when PEMF is used consistently. Researchers point to enhanced circulation, support for cellular energy production, and calmer nerve signaling as the mechanisms behind these effects.

Why we’re launching this now
We didn’t add the NEO Flux on a hunch. Before making it a permanent service, we ran a structured pain trial with a group of clients, checking in on their pain, mobility, and sleep along the way. The progress they’ve reported has been strong enough to convince us this belongs at Brain Spa® for good.
The trial is still wrapping up, and we’ll publish the full results once it’s complete. The quotes below are from clients living it in real time.
What clients are saying
“My pain decreased to 1 or no pain at all. What a feeling to be able to move around feeling pain free. Thank you for this wonderful experience.”
— Don
“Definite improvement! Mobility is significantly better, even on days when there is some pain. The day after a bigger workout I experience less pain than before beginning the treatments.”
— Aubrey
“I had my first pain-free run in YEARS!”
