"I
have been given this product as part of a product review through the Chronic Illness Bloggers network. Although the product
was a gift, all opinions in this review remain my own and I was in no way
influenced by the company."
After reading the testimonies of
others about how well Oska® Pulse was working for them,
I had already gotten some background information and this is what I found. Peer
reviewed studies show pulsed electro-magnetic field (PEMF) therapy works
for a plethora of conditions. And, since I used to write for Sharecare, I was glad to see Dr.
Oz say, “PEMF
therapy is FDA-approved to fuse bones and has been cleared in certain devices
to reduce swelling and joint pain.”
How does it work?
The Oska Pulse is a PEMF
devise that acts by massaging inflammatory cells
causing them to dissipate. It doesn't move and there isn't an electrical current like that of a TENS unit.
Features
An important feature of the device is that it turns off in 30 minutes after it completes four
cycles of different pulse electromagnetic frequencies. You don't have to think about it. When it turns off, it will make three short beeps. You can’t feel it so if you don't hear the beeps, you know its off when the pulsing light it emits during operation is off too. If you find the light distracting, you can put it in a sock. Skin-to-skin contact is not
necessary for it to work.
The shape and size is perfect. It fits nicely in the palm of your hand or cradled on the neck, or if you prefer to set it next to you, put it on the flat side. It works in an eight inch radius of the device, period.

It comes with instructions on how to use it and illustrations of how to use the strap so you can wear it.
The device has a rechargeable battery, so all you have to do is charge it like you would your cell phone.
My experience
After
three weeks, I noticed for the first time in a long time, I didn't wake up in pain from rolling onto my left shoulder. But, there is more.
I have
experienced restless leg syndrome for many years. I even had a sleep study that confirmed significant periodic limb movement (PLM). And while my sleep study results was proof for my husband that I wasn’t purposefully kicking him during the night in retaliation for
his snoring and it was a confirmation that I have a contributing factor to non-restorative sleep, this information did not solve my problem. And, neither did the medications to specifically treat PLM; I did not tolerate the side effects. But, that was about to change.
About one month in,
I “awakened” with the PEMF device still sitting (unattached) on my left shoulder where I had left it the night before. I hadn't moved one inch! No covers in disarray, no complaints from the spouse. I had not changed a thing in my routine or in my medical treatment. The only thing different was Oska Pulse!
Compliance
The most important thing is using it enough. It won’t work if it stays in the nifty box it came in.
Reduction in inflammation and pain might be immediate. But, if a problem has been long standing, your body may take longer to respond. Many things can contribute to the way our body reacts. As an example, we have different reasons for experiencing chronic pain, or we may have another health problem that contributes to how our body heals.
It's important to know that you might feel worse at first. This is because the Oska Pulse PEMF device works to release cellular toxins that have accumulated around inflamed
areas, so don’t give up. Do as the instructions say and drink plenty of water,
just like you would after a massage.
The literature says the majority of people see significant improvement in 3 - 4 weeks and difficult cases respond in about 4 - 6 weeks. I am still on my healing journey, but there is a noticeable difference in my shoulder pain and joint range of motion. My periodic limb movement has greatly improved, an effect that was totally unexpected. I consider myself a more difficult case because I have significant arthritis throughout my body. Knowing this and already seeing improvement, I expect it to get even better with time.
