EMTT Therapy in Ottawa by Physiocare Physiotherapists
Hands-on high-energy electromagnetic healing delivered by Physiocare’s physiotherapists to supercharge cellular repair and relieve chronic pain.
Physiocare's Experience in Action
Understanding EMTT Therapy
Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy (EMTT) delivers rapid oscillating magnetic fields (100–300 kHz, ~80 mT) that synchronize cellular electromagnetic activity and stimulate mitochondrial and osteogenic pathways. A recent in vitro study demonstrated acceleration of osteoblast differentiation and mineralization, indicating EMTT’s potential to enhance fracture healing and bone regeneration.
How does EMTT Therapy work?
EMTT delivers high-frequency pulses through a handheld applicator, penetrating deep tissues up to 18 cm. This generates electroporation, calcium influx, and gene upregulation (e.g., RUNX2, SP7), promoting extracellular matrix mineralization and anti-inflammatory cascades. In RCTs, EMTT combined with shockwave therapy produced significantly greater pain relief and improved function for rotator cuff tendinopathy versus shockwave alone, maintained at 24 weeks
Benefits of Deep Oscillation Therapy
- Accelerates bone & tissue repair by enhancing osteoblast activity and mineralization
- Reduces chronic pain, improving VAS pain scores in shoulder and groin conditions
- Improves functional mobility, with sustained gains up to six months post-tendon injury
- Non-invasive & comfortable, no downtime—fully clothed sessions lasting 10–20 minutes
Synergy with other modalities, amplifies effects when combined with shockwave or manual therapies
Conditions Treated with EMTT Therapy in Ottawa
EMTT therapy is ideal for deep tissue and cellular repair, offering a powerful boost to Physiocare’s rehabilitation protocols.
At Physiocare, we treat rotator cuff tendinopathy, chronic low back pain, osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, fractures, post-surgical recovery, and musculoskeletal inflammatory disorders—including osteitis pubis and plantar fasciitis.
Major Conditions Treated With EMTT Therapy
- Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy: EMTT + ESWT showed superior pain reduction and function sustained at 24 weeks.
- Chronic Low Back Pain: Addition of EMTT to standard care improved pain and disability in RCTs.
- Osteitis Pubis (Athletes): Four EMTT sessions reduced groin pain, enabling return to sport without medication.
- Fracture Healing & Bone Disorders: In vitro evidence shows enhanced osteoblast function and matrix mineralization.
Degenerative Joint Pain/Osteoarthritis: EMTT supports anti-inflammatory pathways for improved quality of life

- Localization of target tissue and frequency calibration.
- EMTT applicator held 2–5 cm from skin, delivering high-frequency magnetic pulses for 10–20 minutes.
- Patient remains fully clothed; therapy is painless and smooth.
- The clinician monitors the response and adjusts settings.
- Complementary exercises or shockwave therapy may follow.
- Progress evaluated; treatment plan refined over 4–8 sessions for optimal healing.

Frequently Asked Questions About EMTT Therapy
Typically 4–10 sessions (10–20 min each), adjusted per condition severity.
No. The procedure is non-contact, comfortable, and well-tolerated.
Early research shows EMTT enhances osteoblast function and matrix formation, promising fracture support.
Penetrates up to 18 cm to reach deep bone, tendon, muscle, and nerve tissues.
EMTT delivers higher frequency and intensity, resulting in deeper tissue transduction and faster effects.
Yes. Trials combining EMTT with conventional care showed significantly greater pain and disability improvements.
Yes. Conditions like osteitis pubis and tendon injury saw reduced pain and rapid return to activity after EMTT.
EMTT is often covered under physiotherapy benefits at Physiocare—please confirm with your plan.
