Healthy Wave PEMF Mat Vs BioBalance PEMF Mat Comparison
The BioBalance is a PEMF mat released by Dr. Pawluk who is a proponent of higher intensity PEMF. He has marketed this mat as a higher intensity alternative to other much lower intensity mats which are typically around 1 gauss. In this comparison we will show how the Healthy Wave Mats compare to the BioBalance PEMF Mat. |

Healthy Wave & BioBalance Models / Options |
|
$999-$2495 Healthy Wave Multi-wave Pro Mat |
$2590 – BioBalance standard mat with pad |
There is only one option available for the BioBalance which includes a full sized mat and pad. Healthy Wave Mats we have a large variety of different models containing different levels of PEMF Technology depending on your needs as well as a variety of different sizes of mats. All Healthy Wave Mats also contain multiple therapies such as far infrared heat, negative ions, low level red light therapy and natural crystal energy. |
Healthy Wave & BioBalance PEMF Programs |
|
The Healthy wave mats focus on true earth based frequencies within the 0-30Hz range.
|
The BioBalance advertises frequencies from 0.5Hz to 1000Hz but this is contained with 6 different programs you can choose from. 3 of the programs contain the BioBalance “signal” as the carrier frequency. While the other 3 programs only run a continues EMFs at different frequencies. With all these programs you can adjust the intensity from 10%-100%. Both the full mat and the pad run the same programs. The BioBalance “signal” is composed of 4 different pulse widths which corrleate to the frequencies of 300, 600, 800 & 1000Hz if each individual pulse width was ran continously. |
|
Healthy Wave & BioBalance Gauss Intensity |
|
|
The BioBalance advertises 10 gauss but in other situations Dr. Pawluk indicates it is 5 gauss. From our testing we were able to find a peak gauss of 6.6 but then did require pushing into the pad to get very close to the PEMF coil to achieve. |
Overall virtually all models of Healthy Wave Mats have the same or better intensity as the BioBalance by Dr. Pawluk. While the BioBalance may be a good alternative to the much lower intensity MLM mats that have peak gausses around 1, Healthy Wave Mats really take intensity to the next level for full body mats. |
Healthy Wave & BioBalance PEMF Field Distribution |
|
The following are PEMF Field intensity measurements we did using the same methodology we describe on our Technology page. This testing was done with the previous model of the Bemer Pro PEMF Mat but results will likely be similar but with a distribution pattern on the Bemer Evo mats as the mats are similar intensities. These measurements give you an approximate idea of the PEMF field intensity over the surface of the mat at the distances of 0, 3.5, 5 and 10 inches. | |
PEMF Field Distribution at Surface of Mat |
|
PEMF Field Distribution at 3.5 Inches Above Mat |
|
PEMF Field Distribution at 5 Inches Above Mat |
|
PEMF Field Distribution at 10 Inches Above Mat |
|
The Healthy Wave High Intensity mat delivers much higher intensity at all levels above the mat. The intenstiy drop off rate is also much slower then the BioBalance due to our advanced coil design system which projects the PEMF Field further up with a minimial drop off rate. The next measurements are of the Healthy Wave Multi-Wave Advacned controler which has a comparble peak gauss to the BioBalance. |
|
While the intenstiy of the Advanced controller on the Multi-Wave mat and the BioBalance are very similar in their peak intensities you can see the pemf intensity drop off rate is much slower on the Healthy Wave Multi-Wave mat due to the coil design system technology. This provides higher intensities for the user above the surface of the mat which is where the user is laying and experiencing the benefits of the PEMF therapy. |
Healthy Wave & BioBalance Electro Smog / Dirty Electricity |
|
Through near field probe testing the Healthy Wave Mats have zero unintended voltage spikes |
The BioBalance has some voltage spikes present when doing the near field probe testing. |
Testing for RF Radiation the Healthy Wave Mat has 0 detectable using the Trifield Meter |
Testing for RF Radiation the BioBalance PEMF Mat has 0 detectable using the Trifield Meter. |
The Heathy Wave Mat is completely free of all electro smog / dirty electricity. The BioBalance is free of all RF Radiation which is the highest frequency type of dirty electricity but does have measurable lower level voltage spikes as shown which would be classified as electrosmog. |
Healthy Wave & BioBalance Other Therapies |
|
The Healthy Wave Mats are much more then just a PEMF Mat as we say they are a “5 Therapy Mat” The additional therapies include; Far Infrared Heat, Negative Ions, Low Level Red Light Therapy and natural Crystal Energy. It is easy to receive all these therapies as well as they are all integrated into the mat! |
The BioBalance PEMF Mat has no additional therapies. |
Healthy Wave & BioBalance FSA/ HSA Eligibility? |
|
All Healthy Wave Mats are covered by FSA/ HSA plans. You can use this through your companies FSA/HSA plan or personal one! |
The BioBalance PEMF mat is not covered my FSA or HSA plans. |
