Electromagnetic therapy or electromagnetic field therapy refers to therapy involving the use of magnets or electromagnets.[citation needed]

Types include[citation needed] :

  • Bioelectromagnetics, the study of how electromagnetic fields interact with and influence biological processes.[1]
  • Electrotherapy, the use of electrical or electromagnetic energy in medicine;[2]
  • Electromagnetic therapy (alternative medicine), the use of electromagnetic radiation to treat disease. Evidence of efficacy is lacking.[3]
  • Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, or PEMF, the use of weak electromagnetic fields to initiate osteogenesis.[4]
  • Alternating electric field therapy, also known as "Tumor Treating Fields", the use of electric fields as an anti-mitotic therapy for cancer patients.
