A revolutionary, globally unique high-tech device based on cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) technology. It fights aging, pain, and various health problems through cell rejuvenation. The cold atmospheric plasma generated by the device penetrates deep into the body's tissues, intensively supporting the body's regenerative processes. Cold atmospheric plasma plays a crucial role in modern technology and science as it effectively destroys bacteria and other pathogens. The Human Regenerator Jet uses also PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) as a therapeutic method for a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, arthritis, and even to support recovery from injuries. It’s a non-invasive and drug-free treatment option that many find beneficial.
