Magnetic Therapy in the news


Medical literature reports that over 70 million Americans each year are suffering from chronic pain. In fact, it has been reported that pain is the reason for 80% of the visits to doctor’s offices.

Pain relief magnets have been used for treatment of various conditions and pain over the course of human history. Due to its level of success in healing, there is good evidence suggesting magnetic health therapy will continue to remain a mainstay in the treatment of pain and other conditions. In contrast with traditional pharmaceutical approach, magnetic therapy provides a safe, non-invasive and easy to use method for pain relief. Based on the wide use of magnets and available evidence, the application of magnetic therapy for health purposes do not pose any danger for the person using magnets.

The field of magnetic health therapy has become more widely used. It is estimated that in the past 25 years, more than two million patients have been treated throughout the world with magnetic therapy for a variety of condition, injuries and diseases. The approximate success rate of magnet therapy is 80% with virtually no report of side effects or complications.

In the book Bioelectromagnetic Medicine, the author’s Dr. Marko Markov and Dr. Paul Rosch, elaborate on how world renowned experts described the potential of magnetic fields to treat various conditions and clinical problems. The book sheds light on documented magnetic therapy studies in fracture healing, wound healing and muscle stimulation. Other magnetic field studies have shown promise with Parkinson’s, cancer healing and epilepsy diseases. Dr. Markov and Dr. Rosch also reveal how magnetic field therapy has been successful in treatment of migraines, multiple sclerosis and macular degeneration.

Despite the fact that magnetic health therapy has become widely used in the United States and around the world for pain relief, there are still medical practitioners that refuse to give consideration to alternative therapies such as magnetic therapy. In most cases, these medical professionals may not yet be educated on alternative methods of healing aside from conventional allopathic medicine. As a result, patients who hear success stories from friends and relatives about the benefits of magnets may ask their physician whether magnetic health therapy can help them. Unfortunately, many times their doctor answers, “no” despite the growing evidence that support the use of pain relief magnets.

In examining the facts, there are several studies reporting the reduction of pain in post-polio patients, peripheral neuropathy, fibromyalgia and post-surgical wounds. These studies demonstrate how magnets can produce a magnetic field of sufficient strength to provide significant pain relief in various disorders. Magnetic fields applied to the site of injury have anti-inflammatory effects, which may reduce inflammation and assist in pain relief.

    1. Good afternoon and thank you for your interest in our Blog.
      Unfortunately, Magnetic Therapy does not recommend the use of spot or patch magnets applied directly to the head or face. Therefore, we would recommend that you try one of our stronger magnetic jewellery products, like our Premier Chains that promote pain relief and healing throughout the whole body. Here is our selection: http://www.magnetictherapy.co.uk/magnetic-bracelets/premier-chain-bracelets.
