DEVICE

PEMF

Participants will receive pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) exposure to alternate lower limbs weekly for 16 weeks. Participants will place alternate lower limb into the PEMF machine. Each lower limb will be exposed to 1.5mT magnetic field exposure for 10 mins once a week (total 10 min each week) for 16 weeks.
