Inflammation and pain management

Assisi Loop Lounge is a rechargeable PEMF therapy bed that generates the same patented targeted pulsed electromagnetic field (tPEMF) therapy as Assisi Loop, which delivers a micro-current targeting the body’s own natural anti-inflammatory process. This micro-current helps enhance body's natural production of nitric oxide, fasten the healing of soft and hard tissues—including the skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, and organs. 

It offers a safe, non-invasive, non-pharmaceutical pain management technology that can be used as a stand-alone therapy or in conjunction with the treatment plan your veterinarian has in place. 

PEMF is used in pain management, osteoarthritis, inflammation, post-surgical healing and wound healing. Loop Lounge is suitable for rabbits, cats and dogs. 

Comfortable and total body treatment 

With the Assisi Loop Lounge PEMF bed, it provides a comfortable space for pets to receive healing treatments at home. 

The treatment field of Loop Lounge™ extends up to 25cm (10 inch) from the surface of the therapy pads, which means dogs or cats can receive a whole body anti-inflammatory treatment from head-to-toes.

How does the Assisi Loop Lounge work?

In general, tPEMF can be used to speed healing, reduce inflammation, and lower pain levels. For any kind of orthopedic injury or surgery, the Loop is a great tool to use in the recovery stage. The field penetrates fur, bandages, and casts to reach all the tissue in the target area. 

By emitting bursts of microcurrent electricity, the Assisi Loop Lounge creates a field which evenly penetrates both soft and hard body tissue around the target area. This electromagnetic field causes a chemical cascade, which activates the Nitric Oxide cycle. Nitric Oxide is a key molecule in healing for humans and animals. The compound is released when we exercise, and when we are injured, for the body to naturally repair itself.

The Loop increases Nitric Oxide production to help speed healing of soft and hard tissues--that includes skin, tendons, ligaments, bones and organs. The specific ratio of frequency to burst width used by the Loop has been found to be the most effective at delivering the amount of current that is similar to what is already used by the body. More is not always better, and too much Nitric Oxide production can actually slow healing. When choosing a PEMF device, it is good to know that more power is not correlated with faster healing.

Will my pet feel anything?

Assisi Loop PEMF therapy can markedly increase blood flow and tissue oxygenation, which improves the overall tissue health and reduces pain associated with lack of sufficient oxygen. We often hear reports from pet owners that their animal relaxes as soon as they start their treatments with the Loop therapy. With the many healing benefits that the Loop therapy offers, this is not surprising.

Some animals will notice the increased blood flow because with increased circulation there is often a warming or tingling sensation. This is subtle, however, and many animals won't notice at all.

How do I use the Loop Lounge?

Regardless of what is being treated, we recommend that you start with 3 to 4 15-minute treatments per day for acute and chronic or degenerative conditions.

For acute conditions (such as post-surgical treatment or recovery from a trauma), we recommend that you continue 3 to 4 treatments per day for the first week or so and then taper off for the next 7 to 10 days or until the condition is fully healed.

For chronic or degenerative conditions, we recommend that you continue with 3 to 4 treatments per day for 7 to 10 days and monitor the animal until you see improved mobility and less pain response. Again, you can taper down to 1 or 2 treatments per day or even 1-3 treatments per week. With some chronic and degenerative conditions, the patient may get to the point that they would only be treated as needed for pain, particularly if it is a condition that is prone to flare-ups.

Ultimately, you want to consider that the Assisi Loop is catalyzing the anti-inflammatory cascade as well as accelerating the body’s own healing properties. We rely on veterinarians to assess the animal and to work with the pet owner on the best treatment protocols for each case.

What does it mean to be a total body treatment?

The effective treatment zone of Loop Lounge extends 25 cm (10 inch) from the surface of the therapy pads, which means dogs or cats can receive a whole body anti-inflammatory treatment from head-to-toes.  

How soon will I see results?

For acute inflammation, you should see noticeable relief after the first or second treatment. With chronic or degenerative issues, you may not see notable results for 1 to 2 weeks. You’ll want to continue the treatments as recommended for continued long-term healing.

Should I talk to a veterinarian before getting the Loop Lounge?

Its a good idea to discuss the use of the device with your veterinarian. Veterinarians are able to determine the severity of an issue and are generally able to pinpoint the specific area in the animal’s body that needs treatment. Veterinarians work with clients and their pets directly and advise them on the most effective treatment plans. Often the Assisi Loop therapy is a part of an integrated multi-modal treatment plan. Pet owners benefit from visiting their vets on a regular basis, getting assessments on their pet’s progress and up-to-date advice on continued treatment with the Loop therapy. Pet owners have the advantage of monitoring their animals at home and determining with their vet the best course for long-term treatment.

How long will the Loop Lounge last?

The Assisi Loop Lounge is guaranteed to deliver 6000 treatments and the battery life is anticipated for 4 years. To replace the battery, please contact us or the vet clinic where you purchased the Loop Lounge from. Please DO NOT open any loop lounge components in the attempt to replace batteries.

Will my pet insurance cover the cost of the Loop Lounge?

Most pet owner insurance will cover prescribed treatments. We recommend that you contact your insurance company for more information.

How can I clean my Assisi Loop Lounge?

The Assisi Loop Lounge is washable, water-resistant and all the operating components are protected by the pad's own moisture-proof foam material. If pet fluids or other liquids come in contact with the therapy pad follow the following instructions:

1. Turning off the device.

2. Using a soft brush, wash the affected surfaces with soap and water to remove any odor or solid particulates.

3. Follow-up by wiping down the affected surfaces with rubbing alcohol. Clean the pad with the power off and wait for 15 minutes after cleaning before operating again.

Is it dangerous if my pet is chewing on my wire/the wire is wet or compromised?

The Assisi Loop Lounge is NOT powered by electrical current drawn from the wall outlet but instead by an internal battery in the tPEMF Controller Box. Even if the wire insulation is damaged or pierced by your pet, the 12v current in the Loop Lounge is harmless. If your pet can't stop chewing the wire, the cord from the pad can be safely sprayed with commercial chewing deterrents for pets.

My pet left the Assisi Loop Lounge before the treatment finished, what should I do?

If your pet has received at least 10 minutes of treatment, you may wait until the next schedule treatment otherwise there is no harm in starting another partial or complete cycle.

Can the Assisi Loop Lounge be used with pets with metal implants?

The size of veterinary implants are not sufficient to significantly distract, weaken or otherwise adversely affect the therapeutic effect of the Loop Lounges’ signal. Additionally, many veterinary surgical implants are made of non-magnetic materials, so there are no magnetic induction effects from the Loop Lounges' signal

Can the Assisi Loop Lounge be used on a pet with a pacemaker or other implanted medical electronic devices?

Out of an abundance of caution, we recommend not using the Assisi Loop Lounge if you or your pet has a pacemaker or other electronic devices.
