The 2026 PEMF Buyer’s Guide from BryantMeyers.com criticizes a “popular PEMF expert (we’ll call him Dr. P)” for both miscalculating the Inverse Square Law and failing to realize different devices use different size coils, so a different chart is needed for each. Is that Dr. William Pawluk being referred to? Are his recommendations unreliable due to the mischaracterization of energies?

Unfortunately, he was not as astute in terms of understanding the underlying physics of the PEMF technology, and so has done extensive use following assumptions based on incorrect calculations of energy intensities. This biases him to favor high intensity but based on his false calculations. So it is best to avoid his work as a starting point for individual guidance of device settings and usage. The general statements he gives about the value overall, and the many benefits, are generally correct in broad terms, so this is a technology here to stay and will continue to be utilized and refined over the years with greater and greater understanding and tangible examples of benefit that will help focus and refine its use.
