The heart’s electromagnetic field (HEMF) represents the strongest magnetic signal in the human body and has been increasingly associated with processes related to the Heart–Brain Axis (HBA). The present review summarizes its biophysical basis along with current and emerging biosensing technologies. It examines hypotheses regarding interpersonal interactions and interactions with external fields, including geomagnetic activity, and reviews evidence linking the HEMF to autonomic activity and emotional states. It provides an overview of magnetic field-based therapeutics, introduced here as our own term “BioMagnetoTherapies” (BMT), underscoring their common objective of externally inducing, stabilizing or restoring coherence across the HBA. Collectively, it positions cardiac electromagnetic signals as both a measurable marker, key to HBA dynamics and related disorders, as well as a promising target for emerging biosensor- and BioMagneto-Therapeutics.
