NORTH SHORE OSTEOPATHIC now offers a private room within its suite that provides a dimly lit sanctuary. Listen to ambient comforting sounds. Have a simulated aurora with green stars dissolve your over-stimulated mind and body.

Add additional features to this experience by turning on our Treatment Mat laid ready to use or slid to the side if just needing to wanting to lay upon the 14-inch gel-foam XL Twin Mattress.

Each therapeutic option of the Treatment Mat is designed to promote specific aspects of physical and mental health:

  • Gemstones: Natural amethyst, tourmaline, obsidian, quartz and jade gemstones emit Far Infrared Rays and negative ions, applies heated pressure along the body’s pressure points to temporarily relieve stiffness and muscle tension.

  • Far Infrared Rays (FIR) / Heat Therapy: Deeply penetrate your body reaching muscles, joints and soft tissues, to temporarily relieve pain and muscle spasms. Allergy symptoms may also improve by improving circulation and reducing inflammation. Setting the FIR heat to a temperature of 122 to 140 degrees F will increase your heart rate, boost metabolism, increase your energy consumption and elevate blood circulation on a cellular level – especially if one covers themselves with a mylar blanket. It is also regularly used for different types of pain such as arthritis, neuropathic pain or headaches.

  • Photon Light Therapy: The Photon lights use visible red light at a wavelength of 660nm with an intensity of 2.5mW/cm2, which reaches just below the skin, helping you feel more energized, promoting radiant glow. For maximum benefits, photon lights should come into contact with the skin directly.

  • Negative Ions: These are naturally emitted from gemstones. The higher the temperature, the great the level of negative ions you will receive. These are chosen to refresh your environment, improve mood and sleep quality, which helps to reset pain receptors and facilitate healing and regeneration of structures, as well as facilitates energizing and relaxation.

  • PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) Therapy*: Uses low-frequency electromagnetic waves that mimic the Earth’s natural magnetic field at a default frequency of 7.83 Hz in varying pulsed sinusoidal and square waveforms – the most consistent with the biorhythms of the human body. They essentially help balance your body’s energy and promote overall wellness. The PEMF mat is may be used daily (not more than 60 minutes), allowing you to incorporate them into your daily routine. One may start the day with a session, use it for relaxation before bed, or as part of recovery post-workout.

  • Magnetic Therapy*: The white comforter utilizes static magnets to create a magnetic field that may help enhance relaxation, improve general energy flow, and promote overall wellness by balancing the body’s natural energy fields.

* NOTE absolute contraindications to use of the PEMF feature: MRI-incompatible devices, pacemakers and spinal cord stimulators.

Mat PEMF for 1 hour for 12+ days improved pain and function as well as mood, stress and anxiety during acute or sub-acute low back pain flares or panic-attacks. AND it did not require daily treatments!

Review of research between 2015-2024: for those with fibromyalgia, patellofemoral (knee) pain, plantar fasciitis, hand and knee osteoarthritis, shoulder impingement syndrome, neck and back pain (where surgery is not indicated) - individuals reported improved pain scores and function nearly 3 weeks earlier than without using PEMF. Research specifically looked at chronic nonspecific myofascial and mechanical LBP, chronic postoperative pain following lumbar surgery, cervical disc herniation, and lumbar spinal stenosis.

Neurology/Physiatry/Pain Management: research demonstrated over 80% of participants reported improvements in peripheral neuropathic pain and other symptoms due to improvements in circulation and nerve regeneration.

Spinal Cord Injury Physiatry: treatments are believed to improve localized inflammation, oxidative stress and shock-proteins contributing to the functional recovery following spinal cord injury.
