MagnaWave PEMF

If you've spent any time looking at professional PEMF equipment—particularly for horses—you've probably come across MagnaWave.

This is a very different company from the smaller home PEMF brands. MagnaWave's main machines start in the thousands and quickly move into five figures, with systems designed for horse owners, animal professionals, veterinarians, rehabilitation facilities and people building PEMF businesses.

There are a lot of machines to choose from. That's both a strength and something you'll need to spend a little time sorting through.

At the more accessible end is the $5,500 Spiro Pulse. Move up through the range and you'll find the Semi 10, Sol Pro, Julian, Maia Pro, dual-output systems and, at the top, the M40. Depending on the machine and package, prices currently extend to nearly $40,000.

MagnaWave also has human-use PEMF equipment through its AuraWell line, so this isn't simply an equine company. But animals—and particularly performance animals—remain a major part of the MagnaWave world.

Understanding the MagnaWave Range

You don't need to understand every MagnaWave model before you start looking.

The easiest way to make sense of the range is to think about how often the machine will be used, how much power and flexibility you need, and whether you're buying for your own animals or for professional work.

Spiro Pulse

At $5,500, Spiro Pulse is currently the least expensive PEMF machine in the main MagnaWave range.

It's designed around hands-free sessions and is positioned particularly toward performance animals, show animals, breeding stock and equine owners who want something for regular use.

For someone who wants to enter the MagnaWave ecosystem without immediately spending $10,000 or $20,000, this is the obvious machine to investigate first.

Semi 10

The Semi 10 is an interesting step up because it's still relatively compact but moves closer to professional territory.

MagnaWave positions it for small companion animals, show and breeding animals, light equine use and routine care. It's also one of MagnaWave's FEI-compliant machines, which will matter far more to a competitive equestrian than it will to almost anyone else.

Current pricing starts at $8,360 and rises depending on the package.

Sol Pro

The Sol Pro is MagnaWave's entry-level analog professional machine, currently starting at $11,960.

It's aimed at buyers who want more power than the smaller systems without jumping straight into MagnaWave's highest-priced clinical equipment. The company specifically positions it for performance animals, livestock, show and breeding stock and growing practitioner businesses.

This is where the buying decision starts to change. At this price, you're no longer comparing MagnaWave with a few-hundred-dollar pet mat. You're looking at professional equipment and need to think about how much the machine will actually be used—and, for practitioners, whether it will be earning money.

Julian and Julian Duo

Julian is one of MagnaWave's higher-powered analog clinical systems, while Julian Duo adds dual-output capability.

The standard Julian currently starts at $17,960. Julian Duo starts at $23,960.

Dual output is particularly relevant in a professional setting because it changes how much equipment can be running at once. For a horse owner buying for personal use, that may be unnecessary. For a busy practitioner working through multiple sessions, it becomes a much more meaningful difference.

Maia Pro and Maia Duo

The Maia machines are MagnaWave's digital clinical systems.

Maia Pro currently starts at $19,160, while the dual-output Maia Duo starts at $24,960. MagnaWave positions these particularly toward performance animals, veterinarians, PEMF practitioners and rehabilitation facilities.

Again, this isn't really a question of simply buying “the better machine.” Someone running a high-volume practice has very different requirements from someone who wants PEMF equipment for their own horse.

M20 and M40

At the top end sit the M20 and M40.

The M20 currently starts at $29,960. The M40 starts at $34,960, with packages reaching $39,660.

The M40 is effectively built around two complete systems operating within one machine. That's the kind of capability that may be valuable in a high-volume professional environment, but it would be difficult to justify paying for simply because it's the most powerful machine in the catalogue.

For most buyers, the question isn't “What's the best MagnaWave?” It's “How much MagnaWave do I actually need?”

The Attachments Matter Too

The machine itself is only part of the MagnaWave setup.

Different attachments change how the system can be used. MagnaWave currently offers larger loops for broad or full-body coverage, Wave Wings for areas such as the neck, shoulders and hindquarters, smaller paddles for more targeted use, a Butterfly Loop and a mat designed for areas such as hooves and feet.

That's worth paying attention to when you're comparing packages. Two MagnaWave setups using the same underlying machine may not necessarily include the same equipment.

Before comparing prices, look at what's actually in the package.

What About PEMF for People?

MagnaWave's main website is heavily oriented toward animals, but the company also has a human at-home PEMF line called AuraWell.

AuraWell currently includes the Nova HD+ and AuraWave. Both are FDA-cleared devices made in the USA, according to MagnaWave.

Nova HD+ is currently priced from $8,360, while AuraWave is $11,960. AuraWave includes 20 intensity settings, an adjustable timer and both Large Loop and Butterfly Loop attachments.

If you're specifically shopping for a PEMF machine to use on yourself at home, we'd start with the AuraWell products rather than trying to work backwards through MagnaWave's animal and professional catalogue.

MagnaWave Pricing

This is one of the widest price ranges we've encountered in a single PEMF company.

Current starting prices for the main MagnaWave machines include:

Spiro Pulse — $5,500
Semi 10 — from $8,360
Sol Pro — from $11,960
Julian — from $17,960
Maia Pro — from $19,160
Julian Duo — from $23,960
Maia Duo — from $24,960
M20 — from $29,960
M40 — from $34,960

Packages can add several thousand dollars to those prices, with the M40 currently reaching $39,660.

This is exactly why it's important to compare the machine and the package rather than looking at one headline price.

Prices, packages and promotions can change. Check the official MagnaWave website for current pricing and exactly what's included before purchasing.

A 10-Year Machine Warranty

One thing that stands out with equipment at this price is MagnaWave's warranty.

MagnaWave currently covers its machines for 10 years. For years one through three, qualifying machine failures are repaired or replaced without charge. During years four through ten, coverage continues with a $700 annual repair deductible.

Attachments have a shorter six-month warranty.

There are exclusions for things such as accidental damage, misuse, moisture and modifications, so read the complete warranty terms before purchasing rather than assuming everything that happens to the machine will be covered for a decade.

There's More Here Than the Machine

MagnaWave has built quite a large ecosystem around its equipment.

There's a practitioner certification and education program, a searchable practitioner network, continuing education and a professional community. For someone thinking about buying a machine to start or expand a PEMF business, those extras could matter almost as much as another specification on the machine itself.

MagnaWave also offers a Try Before You Buy program, which is worth investigating when you're considering equipment that can cost well into five figures.

Who Is MagnaWave Best For?

MagnaWave makes the most sense when you're looking beyond a basic consumer PEMF device.

Horse owners are an obvious audience, particularly those involved with performance and competition animals. The range also extends into livestock, show animals and companion animals.

For professionals, there's considerably more to choose from: veterinarians, rehabilitation facilities and PEMF practitioners can move into machines and packages designed for heavier use and multiple sessions.

And if you're buying for yourself rather than an animal, look specifically at the AuraWell line.

The sheer size of the range means MagnaWave isn't necessarily the simplest place for a PEMF beginner to start. But if you already know you want higher-end equipment—or you're considering PEMF professionally—there's a lot here to compare.

When We'd Look Elsewhere

If you simply want an inexpensive PEMF mat for occasional home use, MagnaWave probably isn't where we'd start. Even its least expensive main PEMF machine is currently $5,500.

Likewise, someone shopping specifically for a straightforward dog or cat mat may find a company such as Petspemf much easier to navigate.

MagnaWave becomes much more interesting when power, attachments, professional use, equine use or the ability to build a PEMF service around the equipment starts to matter.

A Word About Health Claims

MagnaWave markets its animal equipment around performance, recovery and wellness. We don't independently claim that a MagnaWave machine will diagnose, treat, cure or prevent a disease or guarantee a particular health result.

MagnaWave itself states that its animal devices are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease and recommends consulting a veterinary professional about animal health concerns.

The human AuraWell products have their own regulatory status and instructions, which should be considered separately from MagnaWave's animal equipment.
