ONDAMED PEMF Therapy Beaumaris — Biophysical Healing to Amplify Your Treatment
ONDAMED is one of the most clinically significant technologies available at Como Health Group — not as a standalone treatment, but as a powerful amplifier of the therapeutic work already being done. Used alongside acupuncture, naturopathy, and other integrative therapies, ONDAMED’s pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) technology consistently accelerates patient response and extends the duration of therapeutic outcomes in ways that no single therapy achieves alone.
Chris Ravesi has integrated ONDAMED into his clinical practice as a complement to naturopathic and acupuncture treatment for many years, finding it particularly effective for patients with complex, chronic, or multi-system presentations where the therapeutic process needs additional biophysical support at the cellular level.
What Is ONDAMED PEMF Therapy?
ONDAMED is a non-invasive medical device that delivers pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) into the body’s tissues. These biologically compatible electromagnetic frequencies penetrate deep into the body — stimulating the connective tissue matrix, enhancing cellular energy production, activating lymphatic drainage, and supporting the body’s own healing and detoxification processes.
The extracellular matrix — the connective tissue framework that surrounds every cell in the body — functions as a storage and communication medium for nutrients, toxins, and signalling molecules. When this matrix is congested or dysfunctional, cellular communication breaks down, nutrient delivery is impaired, and toxin accumulation accelerates. ONDAMED’s PEMF frequencies stimulate this matrix directly, improving the flow of nutrients into cells and the removal of metabolic waste products through the bloodstream and lymphatic system.
The ONDAMED system uses a range of standard therapeutic programme frequencies covering immune, musculoskeletal, neurological, circulatory, and detoxification applications. Sessions are completely painless and non-invasive — patients lie comfortably while the applicator is positioned over the treatment area.
How ONDAMED Amplifies Acupuncture and Naturopathy
At Como Health Group, ONDAMED is rarely prescribed as a standalone therapy. Its primary clinical role is to enhance and extend the therapeutic effects of the acupuncture and naturopathic treatment that surrounds it.
Acupuncture works through the nervous system, circulatory system, and neuroendocrine pathways to regulate and rebalance the body’s physiological responses. ONDAMED works at the cellular and connective tissue level — improving the biophysical environment in which acupuncture’s effects are expressed. When both are applied in the same treatment programme, patients consistently report faster response times and more sustained improvement than with either therapy alone.
Naturopathic prescriptions — herbal medicines, nutritional supplements, and detoxification protocols — depend on effective cellular uptake and lymphatic clearance to produce their therapeutic effects. ONDAMED directly improves both. By enhancing nutrient absorption into cells and stimulating lymphatic drainage, ONDAMED makes the body’s internal environment more receptive to naturopathic intervention.
This is why ONDAMED is most valuable for patients with complex or chronic conditions who have not responded as expected to acupuncture and naturopathy alone — the biophysical support it provides at the cellular level removes barriers to therapeutic response that other therapies cannot directly address.

What to Expect at an ONDAMED Session
An ONDAMED session at Como Health Group is entirely comfortable and non-invasive. You lie or sit comfortably while the ONDAMED applicator — a padded coil — is positioned over the area being treated. There is no sensation of heat, no electrical current, and no discomfort. Many patients report feeling deeply relaxed during treatment, with some noticing improved energy, reduced pain, and greater mental clarity in the hours following their session.
Sessions are most commonly scheduled immediately before or alongside an acupuncture or naturopathic consultation. The biophysical preparation ONDAMED provides makes the body more receptive to the treatment that follows. Your practitioner will select the appropriate therapeutic programme frequencies based on your clinical presentation and treatment goals.
Frequently Asked Questions — ONDAMED Therapy
Is ONDAMED safe?
Yes — ONDAMED is a non-invasive medical device with an excellent safety profile. It delivers low-intensity pulsed electromagnetic fields that are biologically compatible and well within safe exposure limits. There are no side effects, no recovery time, and no contraindications for most patients. It is safe to use alongside conventional medications, acupuncture, naturopathic treatment, and other integrative therapies. Patients with pacemakers or implanted electronic devices should advise their practitioner before commencing ONDAMED therapy.
Can I use ONDAMED alongside my current medical treatment?
Yes — ONDAMED is designed to complement rather than replace conventional medical treatment. Many patients at Como Health Group use it as part of an integrated programme that includes both conventional medical care and naturopathic or acupuncture treatment. Please inform your practitioner of all current medications and treatments before commencing.
How many sessions will I need?
This depends on your condition and how ONDAMED is being used in your treatment programme. For acute presentations, 4 to 6 sessions alongside acupuncture or naturopathic treatment typically produces measurable benefit. For chronic or complex conditions, ONDAMED is integrated into a longer programme and used on an ongoing basis to sustain and amplify the effects of the surrounding therapies. Your practitioner will discuss a realistic treatment plan at your first consultation.
Is ONDAMED covered by private health insurance?
ONDAMED delivered as part of a naturopathic or acupuncture consultation may attract a private health rebate under Extras depending on your fund and policy level. We recommend checking your specific cover with your health fund before attending. Receipts are provided at each consultation for all eligible services.
ONDAMED at Como Health Group is prescribed individually and integrated into your broader acupuncture and naturopathic treatment plan — not offered as an isolated technology. If you are currently a patient at Como Health Group, ask Chris Ravesi whether ONDAMED is appropriate for your presentation. If you are new to the clinic, book a consultation to discuss your health goals and we will advise whether ONDAMED forms part of the recommended approach.
