There is disclosed an NMR measurement method and NMR apparatus in which the temperature of the NMR detection coil or the RF irradiation coil hardly varies if pulsed RF power is applied to the coil during NMR measurements. The apparatus includes the detection coil or the RF irradiation coil, a first RF power application means for applying RF power of a frequency necessary for measurement of NMR signals, a second RF power application means for applying RF power of a frequency not affecting the measurement of NMR signals, and a control means for controlling the two power application means such that the sum of the RF power applied to the coil from the first application means and the RF power applied to the coil from the second application means is kept almost constant.
