In practice, BEMER works almost exactly like a heating pad. Simply turn on the device, start your session, and apply the applicator to your body. Only with BEMER, there’s no heat.

Not only can BEMER help ease the tension in your mind and body, but if you’re struggling with chronic stress symptoms like exhaustion and mood issues, it can give you a much-needed boost in energy and vitality.

And you don’t even have to leave the house to use it.
