The Hooga Infrared PEMF Mat delivers two therapies in one full-body session — pulsed electromagnetic fields paired with deep far-infrared heat — so you can relax, recover, and recharge without switching between devices. As a full-size 73" × 29" PEMF mat with infrared heat, it lays flat on your bed, couch, yoga mat, or massage table and works while you rest.
Compared with the better-known infrared PEMF mats on the market, the Hooga delivers more PEMF cores, a wider frequency range, full mineral transparency, and a foldable design — for $396 less. See the full comparison →
What Is PEMF Therapy?
PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy. Every cell in your body carries an electrical charge. Over time, stress, poor sleep, and everyday wear can leave cells under-charged. PEMF delivers gentle, low-frequency electromagnetic pulses — similar to the Earth's own natural magnetic field — that support your body's cellular processes. It's the same technology used in professional wellness clinics, chiropractic offices, and sports recovery centers worldwide.
Why PEMF and Infrared Heat Work Better Together
Far-infrared heat penetrates deeper than conventional heating pads, reaching below the surface to warm tissues from the inside out. When you combine that deep warmth with PEMF's cellular-level electromagnetic pulses, you get a synergistic experience that neither therapy delivers alone. The infrared heat promotes relaxation and increased circulation while the PEMF supports your body's natural recovery processes — all in a single session.
What's Inside the Mat
This isn't a thin pad with a heating element. The Hooga PEMF Mat is built with multiple functional layers:
- 5.5 lbs of crushed amethyst — a natural far-infrared emitter that distributes heat evenly across the mat surface
- 5.5 lbs of black tourmaline — generates negative ions when heated, contributing to a calming environment
- 6 PEMF cores (upgraded 2024) — evenly distributed across the full 73" x 29" surface for consistent field coverage from head to toe
- Multi-layer construction — EMF-blocking layer, waterproof layer, thermal insulation, and a durable outer cover
8 Frequency Presets — Or Set Your Own
The digital controller includes 8 built-in frequency programs designed around well-known brainwave ranges:
- Delta (0.5–4Hz) — deep rest and sleep support
- Theta (4–8Hz) — relaxation and meditation
- Alpha (8–13Hz) — calm focus and stress reduction
- Beta (13–30Hz) — alertness and energy
- Schumann Resonance (7.83Hz) — Earth's natural frequency, the default setting
You can also set any frequency manually from 1–30Hz using the custom mode. Each PEMF session runs for 20 minutes with automatic shutoff.
Built for Daily Use
At 73" x 29" and 24 lbs, the mat folds in half and fits in the included carrying case. Temperature adjusts from 86°F to 158°F. The mat runs on standard 110V AC power (US outlets). Low-EMF design throughout.
How to Use the Hooga PEMF Mat
The mat is designed for straightforward daily use. A typical session runs 20 minutes and you can use it on your bed, couch, floor, yoga mat, or massage table.
- Unfold and plug in. Lay the mat flat on a firm surface. Connect the controller and plug into a standard US outlet.
- Choose your PEMF program. Press the PEMF button to cycle through eight presets — Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Schumann (7.83 Hz default), and additional frequency ranges. Or press Custom and dial in any frequency from 1–30 Hz manually.
- Set the heat (optional). Use the temperature controls to select any setting from 86°F to 158°F. The infrared heat runs on its own timer and can be used with or without the PEMF function.
- Lie down for a full session. A 20-minute PEMF cycle runs and shuts off automatically. Most users lie fully clothed and cover with a light blanket if the heat is off.
- Build a routine. Once per day is a common starting point. Many users run a low-frequency preset (Delta or Theta) in the evening for wind-down and a higher-frequency preset (Beta or Alpha) in the morning. Stay hydrated before and after sessions.
New to PEMF? Start with 10–15 minutes on the Schumann Resonance preset (7.83 Hz) for the first few sessions and build up from there.
PEMF vs. Red Light Therapy vs. Infrared Heat
These three therapies often get lumped together but they work through different mechanisms. Here's how they compare — and why the Hooga PEMF Mat combines two of them into one session.
| Therapy | What it delivers | How it works | On this mat? |
|---|---|---|---|
| PEMF | Low-frequency pulsed electromagnetic field (1–50 Hz) | Induces gentle micro-currents in tissue; supports cellular signaling | Yes — 6 cores, full-body |
| Far-Infrared Heat | Deep thermal energy (86–158°F) | Penetrates below the skin to warm tissue directly; supports circulation and relaxation | Yes — via the amethyst and tourmaline layer |
| Red Light Therapy | Visible red and near-infrared light (typically 660nm / 850nm) | Photons interact with mitochondria at the cellular level | Not on this mat — see the Red Light PEMF Mat or our red light panels |
PEMF and infrared heat work through completely different mechanisms, which is why combining them in a single mat gives you something neither delivers alone. If you also want red light in the same session, the Hooga Red Light PEMF Mat layers all three.

Is a PEMF Mat Safe? Who Should Not Use One
PEMF mats used at low intensities like this one are generally considered safe for healthy adults for daily 20-minute sessions. That said, PEMF is not appropriate for everyone.
Do not use a PEMF mat if any of the following apply without first consulting your healthcare provider:
- Pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or other electronic implant
- Cochlear implant, neurostimulator, or deep brain stimulator
- Insulin pump or other electronic medical device
- Metal implants in the area of use
- Pregnancy
- Active malignancy without oncology clearance
- Epilepsy or seizure history without medical clearance
- Organ transplant recipient
Discontinue use if you experience discomfort, dizziness, or any unusual symptoms. Keep phones, laptops, and other electronics several feet away from the mat during active use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do PEMF mats really work?
PEMF has an established clinical history — the FDA cleared PEMF for bone healing in 1979. Consumer PEMF mats deliver the same electromagnetic principle at lower intensities, and users report benefits including improved sleep, reduced muscle tension, and a sense of relaxation. Results vary and PEMF is not a medical treatment. What we can say directly about the Hooga PEMF Mat is that it delivers pulsed electromagnetic fields from six embedded copper cores across a full-body surface, with eight presets and a manual frequency mode from 1–30 Hz.
How long do you lay on a PEMF mat?
Each Hooga PEMF session runs for 20 minutes and shuts off automatically. Most users do one session per day. Some run a session in the morning and another in the evening. New users may want to begin with 10–15 minutes on the default Schumann Resonance preset (7.83 Hz) and build up over time.
Is PEMF the same as red light therapy?
No. PEMF delivers low-frequency electromagnetic pulses; red light therapy delivers specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. They work through different mechanisms and are often used together. The Hooga PEMF Mat delivers PEMF and far-infrared heat but not red light. If you want all three in one mat, see the Hooga Red Light PEMF Mat.
Who should not use PEMF mats?
PEMF is not recommended for people with pacemakers, implanted defibrillators, cochlear implants, neurostimulators, insulin pumps, or other electronic medical implants; people with metal implants in the area of exposure; people who are pregnant; people with active malignancy without oncology clearance; people with epilepsy or a seizure history without medical clearance; or organ transplant recipients. Consult your healthcare provider if you have any question about whether PEMF is appropriate for you.
What is PEMF and how does this mat use it?
PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field. The Hooga Infrared PEMF Mat uses six embedded copper coils to generate a low-intensity pulsed magnetic field across the body. You select one of eight frequency presets (1–50 Hz range) or set a custom frequency between 1–30 Hz manually. The mat layers PEMF with far-infrared heat (86–158°F) and a 5.5 lb amethyst / 5.5 lb tourmaline crystal layer. Each PEMF session runs 20 minutes with automatic shutoff.
How does the Hooga PEMF Mat compare to HigherDOSE?
The Hooga mat sits at $699 versus the HigherDOSE Infrared PEMF Mat Pro at $1,295. Hooga gives you 6 PEMF cores vs. HigherDOSE's 4, an 8-preset library vs. 4, a 1–50 Hz range vs. 3–23 Hz fixed, plus a custom frequency mode HigherDOSE doesn't offer. We also disclose mineral weights (5.5 lbs amethyst, 5.5 lbs tourmaline) where HigherDOSE does not. HigherDOSE wins on trial length (120 days vs. our 60). For a side-by-side breakdown of all the major mats on the market, see our PEMF Mat Buyer's Guide.
Which frequency preset should I use?
The mat ships with 8 presets covering the 1–50 Hz range, including Schumann Resonance (7.83 Hz) as the default. Most users start with the default Schumann setting and explore other presets over time. If you want a specific frequency that isn't preset, use the custom mode to dial in any value from 1–30 Hz manually.
Can I use the PEMF and infrared heat separately?
Yes. The PEMF and infrared heat functions run on independent controls. You can use either alone or run both together during a single session.
How big is the mat and does it fold for storage?
The mat measures 73" long by 29" wide — full-body length for most adults — and weighs 24 lbs. It folds in half and ships with a carrying case included. Many full-body PEMF mats at this price either don't fold or charge extra for the case.
Is the Hooga PEMF Mat low-EMF?
Yes. The mat uses a low-EMF design throughout and runs on standard 110V AC US household power.
Is this HSA/FSA eligible?
Yes. The Hooga Infrared PEMF Mat is HSA and FSA eligible. You can pay directly with your HSA/FSA card at checkout, or submit your receipt for reimbursement.
What's the warranty and return policy?
The mat is covered by a 3-year warranty and a 60-day return window that starts the day it's delivered. If it's not the right fit, return it for a refund — returns are not free, and the return shipping cost is deducted from your refund.
How often can I use it?
The mat is built for daily use. Each PEMF session runs 20 minutes with automatic shutoff. Many users do one session a day; some do morning and evening. Adjust temperature and frequency to your preference.
The Hooga Infrared PEMF Mat is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Consult your healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant, have metal implants, use a pacemaker or other electronic implant, take medications that could interact with PEMF, or have any underlying health conditions. Discontinue use if you experience discomfort.
