Super Human Protocol
The Super Human Protocol (SHP) is a comprehensive health strategy that combines Magnetism, Oxygen, and Light in a precise order to maximize health outcomes. Delivered in certified SHP clinics across a span of 32 minutes, the procedure begins with PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) treatment to prime cells for improved oxygen intake. Subsequently, EWOT (exercise with oxygen therapy) is introduced, its effectiveness heightened after the PEMF session. The protocol wraps up with light therapy. Leveraging the elevated oxygen content and more distinct cellular arrangement, this therapy counters oxidative stress and augments ATP synthesis, thereby elevating overall health.
PEMF technology
Athens, GA
PEMF therapy employs electromagnetic fields to deliver targeted frequencies to the body, with the goal of enhancing cellular vitality and facilitating recovery. This approach is rooted in the belief that our bodies are electrically attuned and harmonize with the Earth's electromagnetic aura. In medicine, PEMF therapy has been adopted for a range of health challenges. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved its use for particular conditions, including treating non-union fractures, reducing post-surgery discomfort and inflammation, and addressing depression and anxiety when traditional methods fall short.
