The beneficial influence which magnets could have over the body functions was already known to the ancient Egyptians and Chinese. Magnets are a universal therapy for your health without undesirable side effects. Millions of people worldwide rely on the positive effects of magnets to promote well being, ease pain, reduce stress, gain energy and alleviate depression. Wearing magnetic products has produced positive results with a wide range of ailments such as arthritis, rheumatism, insomnia, migraine, tennis elbow, back and period pains. Astonishing successes are reported with healing for animals as well as people. How do magnets relieve pain? The scientific community has developed many theories about how magnet therapy works, but it has not, as yet, come up with a complete, definitive or universally accepted answer. Magnet therapy works through different mechanisms. However the fact is that it does provide prompt and, in many cases, powerful pain relief for sufferers. For many people it would seem that magnets of the requisite strength promote blood flow to an affected area in any part of the body. The blood carries away toxins and brings in white blood cells, which work to reduce inflammation, swelling and speed relief. All this, of course, tends to reduce pain. Today, magnet therapy has now been officially accepted as a medical procedure in the United Kingdom, other European and Far Eastern countries, the USA and Canada. Are there any side effects of magnets? In rare cases individuals have experienced slight nausea, which was immediately solved by wearing their particular magnetic product during the daytime only. Please note that magnetic fields can affect devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, hearing implants or other implanted electrical devices. Any magnetic device should not be worn during pregnancy. A GP should always be consulted for his/her advice in cases of doubt. Can I wear the bracelet on the same arm as my watch? Yes, your watch will only stop or slow down if a magnet is positioned directly over the small area of the watch battery. It will start working correctly again when the magnetic product is removed. Do the magnets in the bracelet have to touch the skin? No, our magnets are strong enough to have an influence on the circulation from several millimetres away from the skin. With a bracelet a good criteria is to start with a wrist measurement close to the skin and then insert a finger under the measuring tape. The resultant reading will be just right. How can wearing a magnetic bracelet have a beneficial effect on other parts? As explained in the answer to “How do magnets relieve pain?’, all parts of the body can benefit by promoting blood flow, especially when the magnetic field is in the region of the pulse.
