What is magnetic therapy?

Magnetic therapy is a alternative medicine practice involving a static magnetic fields produced by permanent magnet.

So-called therapeutic magnets are typically integrated into bracelets, rings, or shoe inserts, though therapeutic magnetic mattresses and clothing are also on the market.

 The Magnetic Therapy Health Benefit

◆Arthritis

◆Osteoporosis

◆Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

◆Tennis Elbow

◆Headache Backache,

◆Neck Pain Sprains and strains Joints and muscle pain of any nature

◆Period pain breast soreness

◆Recovery after surgery

In China, France, Japan and especially in India, magnetic therapy has long been used to speed the healing of broken bones and soft-tissues injuries. In the US, the publication of several pro-magnet studies in the Journal of Electro and magnetobiology and other prestigious American medical journals, a few pioneering doctors in this country are starting to use magnets in their practices, Already, magnetic therapy has proven effective at treating slow healing fractures and arthritic knees and necks. Studies also suggest that regular use of magnets may reverse osteoporosis, prevent heart disease, slow tumor growth and boost mental function in Alzheimer's patients.

Magnetic therapy helps relieve arthritic pain and slows the deterioration of cartilage inside arthritic joints. It is recommended that patients with arthritis sleep on a magnetic mattress pad.

Tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome and other tendon or ligament problems heal faster when wrapped in magnetic bandages

In some hospitals, when dealing with broken bones, powerful electromagnets are being used to speed healing of stubborn bone fractures. Magnetic therapy also seems to promote regeneration of spinal disk tissue. 

When dealing with asthma, the use of magnets helps prevent the violent allergic reaction in the lungs that is characteristic of bronchial asthma.

How to enjoy the maximum magnetic health?

For maximum benefit, the magnets should be placed as close to the body as is possible. The strength of the magnetic field drops off sharply when the distance to the body increases.

 

How Does Magnetic Therapy Work?

Magnetic therapy works in the human body through the circulatory system, the nervous system, and the endocrine system. Magnetism is continuously penetrating every known particle, right down to the atom. Its ordering effect on living systems arises from the fact that magnetism is a blueprint of life itself.  All known energies have as a base this electromagnetic field.The latest research indicates that magnetism has a very significant biological effect on human beings.

Dr. H.L. Bansel points out that magnetism increases the electrical conductivity of the blood.  Weak current runs through blood and the quantities of ions are increased.  The newly ionized blood circulating throughout the body can significantly contribute to the efficiency of the blood flow as well as having a stabilizing effect on both high and low blood pressure.

Blood contains ferrous hemoglobin (iron) that functions as a carrier of oxygen and carbon dioxide. As the blood circulates in the lungs, fully magnetized ferrous hemoglobin is able to transport more oxygen to cell tissue as well as taking more carbon dioxide waste from the cell back to the lungs for removal.

Magnetic therapy works to regulate and normalize hormone secretion in the glands.  It is currently believed that the increased electrical current being produced forms like a net around the glands and secretory ducts. An extra concentration of oxygen stimulates production while the electrical net regulates optimum secretion. As a result, conditions caused by a lack of hormone secretion or a hormone imbalance are affected through normalizing the hormone functions within the body.  Hormones play a very important role in rejuvenation and in general energy levels while proper circulation ensures that the hormone level is evenly distributed to all parts of the body.

When magnetic "flux" (the north/south flow of a magnet) passes through tissue, a secondary current is created around the flux lines in the tissue cells. This ionizes the protoplasm and rejuvenates the tissues by activating cell metabolism. The function of the cell becomes strengthened as the cell metabolism responds to the bioelectrical currents initiated by the magnetic flux. This current induces muscle spasms to decrease and the activated cell metabolism lowers inflammation in the tissue. The increase of cellular metabolism aids in the regeneration as well as in new cell growth.

 

Is magnetic therapy safe?

 

Magnetic therapy is very safe. The World Health Organization (WHO) has confirm that static magnetic fields pose no health risks at all. No complications have ever been reported with its proper use.

 

Who can’t use magnetic therapy?

DO NOT use magnetic therapy if you: have a pacemaker, defibrillator, insulin pump, or any other implanted electro-medical device; are pregnant; have received a localized cortisone injection within the past 2 weeks over the same area.
