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.

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.

  • Our Advanced Multi-Wave controller allows you to choose 1-30Hz as well as adjust the pulse width from M, F and UF, change from sine to square waves and adjust intensity from 10%-100%. There are 12 preset advanced programs that take you through different combinations of PEMF therapy using these settings. You can also custom program any advanced programs you want.
  • Our Basic Controller allows you to choose from 1-30Hz using a combination of single pulses or groups of pulses. For 30 total PEMF programs
  • Our High Intensity Controller has frequencies from 0.25-30Hz with evenly spaced pulses.
  • Our High Intensity Matrix Pad Controller lets you choose from 1-30Hz using primarily pulse bursts at a 50Hz duty cycle.
  • View Healthy Wave Mat PEMF Technology for all videos of pemf programs.

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.

Bemer PEMF Signal

  • From the options the Healthy Wave Mats provide you have more programs and frequencies in all the different mat models available.
  • Our advanced controller has similar intensity adjustable settings as the BioBalance.
  • The BioBalance only has a Sine wave where with the Healthy Wave Advanced Controller you can choose between the Sine or the Square wave.
  • When it comes from Pulse width with the BioBalance these extra frequencies of  300, 600, 800 & 1000Hz are only present in 3 programs and all frequencies are delivered at once. With  the Healthy Wave Multi-Wave Advanced Controller we let you choose from 3 different pulse widths so you can have a very low magnetic frequency spectrum under 100Hz in the same range as earth based frequencies. Our Fast option which is around 200Hz or our UF which is around 2000Hz. This allows you to choose which type of frequencies you want or you can use our preset programs which will use a variety of these pulse widths so you can get multiple of these frequencies in 1 PEMF session.

 

Healthy Wave & BioBalance Gauss Intensity

  • The Healthy Wave Mat High Intensity Pro Mat has a peak gauss of over 30.
  • The basic controller which comes with older classic 5 therapy models of mats and the Multi--Wave mat has a peak gauss of over 18.
  • The Advanced Controller which comes with the Multi-Wave Mat has a peak gauss of 6.5.
  • The 5 therapy High Intensity Matrix pad has a peak intensity over 40 gauss.

Healthy Wave High Intensity Pro Mat Peak Gauss

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

Healthy Wave Mat Intensity Surface BioBalance PEMF Distribution Surface

PEMF Field Distribution at 3.5 Inches Above Mat

Healthy Wave Mat Intensity 3.5 inches Biobalance PEMF Distribution 3.5 inches

PEMF Field Distribution at 5 Inches Above Mat

Healthy Wave Mat Intensity 5 inches BioBalance PEMF Distribution 5  inches

PEMF Field Distribution at 10 Inches Above Mat

Healthy Wave Mat Intensity 10 inches BioBalance PEMF Distribution 10  inches

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.
Healthy Wave MultiWave Mat Intensity Surface BioBalance PEMF Distribution surface
Healthy Wave MultiWave Mat Intensity 3.5 inches BioBalance PEMF Distribution 3.5  inches
Healthy Wave MultiWave Mat Intensity 5 inches BioBalance PEMF Distribution 5  inches
Healthy Wave MultiWave Mat Intensity 10 inches BioBalance PEMF Distribution 10  inches
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

Healthy Wave Mat No Dirty Electricity

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

Healthy Wave Mat no RF

Testing for RF Radiation the BioBalance PEMF Mat has 0 detectable using the Trifield Meter.

Bemer PEMF Mat low RF

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.
