Therapies
Both the Healthy Wave’s Multi Wave and 5 Therapy Mat include all 5 healing therapies: PEMF, far infrared, crystals, negative ion and photon therapy.
What makes these two mats different is the customization and attributes of each therapy. (Discussed Below)
- Tie - Multi Wave & 5 Therapy
Frequency Settings
The Earths natural magnetic frequencies range from 0-30 hertz and has three main frequencies of 7.83 (the Shumann resonance), 11.75 (the equator) and 11.79 (the poles).
Research has proven that different tissues of the body require various frequencies to regenerate and repair at.
Both the Multi Wave and 5 Therapy Mat have frequencies that fit into the Schumann Resonance.
However the Healthy Wave 5 Therapy Mat offers a bigger range of frequency settings from 1-30 hertz. It takes the point for best frequency.
- 1 Point -5 Therapy Mat
Intensity Settings
PEMF intensity is not the determining factor for a therapeutic level of a mat but it is important.
The Healthy Wave Multi Wave Mat produces an intensity up to 3 gausses. Which is controlled with 5 different intensity settings (10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%).
In contrast, the 5 therapy mat produces an intensity of only 3 gauss, with no room for customization.
Compared to the Multi Wave Mat the 5 therapy mat lacks customization which can be an important factor for people who are sensitive to EMF waves.
- 1 Point - Multi Wave
Pulse Duration
The Healthy Wave Multi Wave Mat has 3 different pulse duration settings and the 5 Therapy Mat has one.
The importance of being able to customize the duration settings to your personal preference can be essential for people who are sensitive to EMF’s. In some cases, people who are sensitive to EMF’s can actually feel the PEMF waves and want to have the option to decrease the duration.
Additionally for some people a lower pulse duration isn’t strong enough and having a higher duration works best for them.
- 1 Point - Multi Wave Mat
Wave Form
Both the Multi Wave and the 5 Therapy Mat utilize a bi-phasic Sine Wave.
What sets them apart, is the Multi Wave Mat give you the customization ability to choose from a bi-phasic sine wave or bi-phasic square wave. Because every person has a different healing sweet spot, it is important to have the option to try different wave forms on your PEMF journey.
Alhough no research has proven that a particular wave form is better than others, typically we see more studies done that use a sine wave. Additionally, many PubMed studies have been done that use different wave forms while all getting a positive result.
All that can be concluded is that the more wave types you have to use the better… just as the saying goes “the more the merrier”.

Both the Multi Wave and the 5 Therapy Mat include amethyst, tourmaline, jade, and obsidian.
The differentiator between these four crystals is the amount in each mat. (see chart) In addition only the Multi Wave Mat includes quartz. The benefits in having quartz is that it amplifies the properties of the other crystals in the mat, making for a better all over healing experience.

Customization Options
From wave form, to frequency settings and pulse duration, the Healthy Wave Multi Wave Mat has 313 billion different customization combinations.
In comparison the 5 Therapy Mat lacks customization as it only offers the ability to adjust the frequency and far infrared heat settings.
The Healthy Wave Mat gives you the most amount of options to choose from, giving the user an advantage to find the exact settings that benefit them the most.

Pre-set Programs
Pre-set programs are important when you start your journey into PEMF Therapy so you can try different settings and find out what works for your body best.
The Healthy Wave Multi Wave Mat is built with 10 different 20 minute sessions and 2 one-hour sessions.
Where as the Healthy Wave 5 Therapy Mat does not come with any pre-set programs to choose from.

Construction
Both the Healthy Wave Multi Wave Mat and Healthy Wave 5 Therapy Mat are constructed of 18 layers with non toxic and durable material. (click here to see the full details on the layers).In addition to these layers, both mats also include 3mG of EMF protection, following the Swedish Standard (as there is no American one).
The PEMF in the Multi Wave Mat is generated by 8 copper coils. While the 5 Therapy Mat is generated by 6. The copper could are responsible for generating the electricity to power the PEMF waves. Thus having more copper coils generates better electricity.
- 1 Point - Multi Wave Mat
Flexibility
Both Healthy Wave Multi Wave and 5 Therapy Mat is not flexible and must be used on a flat surface to avoid damage to the mat. It is able to be folded up in 2 places for easy storage and carrying.

Sizing
The Healthy Wave Multi Wave Mat comes with 4 different sizing options.
The Healthy Wave 5 Therapy Mat comes in 11 differentiations sizes. Including two sizes that fit on a king or queen bed.
*Note- the amount of crystals, copper coils, weight and price is different for every mat

Warranty and Guarantee
As we discussed in the reviews one of the top things we look for when buying a mat is the details on their warranty and guarantee. The reason being is it brings to light the confidence the seller has in their product. And it additionally give you as the customer a good feeling about the product/company.
Both the Healthy Wave Multi Wave and the Healthy Wave 5 Therapy Mat share the same warranty and guarantee policy.
Both mat’s two year warranty on the mat and a five year extended warranty on the controller. Having the extended warranty included in the purchase is essential because typically the controller is the most expensive and the highest wear and tear part of a PEMF device.
Additionally both mat’s have a 90 day satisfaction guarantee. You are able to return it for full refund as long as the mat is in the same shape as when you got it. There is no restocking fee, you just have to pay for shipping and handling.
