The text you added is an exact copy of the cited source, is written in a highly non-encyclopedic voice, and is of dubious value (electromagnetic fields have been recognized as "real" for quite some time now ...). Please discuss this source at Talk:Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy, and be aware of the policies on Copyright violations and Edit warring. Thanks, - 2/0 (cont.) 17:09, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
The reference I made to this article is very valuable because it has been published in a peer reviewed well known magazine published by Springer. The article was written by Dr. Marko Markov a real guru and very well known in this field and author of numerous books and articles on pulsed electromagnetic fields. The first reference on this page also quotes an article written by the same author. I do not grasp the expression highly non-encyclopedic voice but if you like that I change the language somewhat to satisfy you personally let me know and I will comply.

[edit]You were warned previously about directly copying material from Markov's article. Medical articles on Wikipedia are subject to strict sourcing rules that are laid out at WP:MEDRS. Please read those requirements, and be aware that extraordinary claims, such as electromagnetic waves healing broken bones, require extraordinarily strong sourcing. Such a strong source would be, for example, a Cochrane review, but the 2011 review states that any evidence is inconclusive and insufficient to inform clinical practice. You're going to need a lot more than a single person's opinion to contradict that, "guru" or not. --RexxS (talk) 16:51, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
