How A Magnet Saved My Life

You may have seen collections of magnetic jewelry in a number of locations.  They are being sold on the internet, in stores and at kiosks at the mall.  You may wonder about the properties of these magnets, their history and if they could help your condition.  Here is some information that may be helpful in deciding if such magnets might be helpful for health conditions that affect your own life.

Magnets can increase healing of the body in several ways.  From ancient times, these devices have been said to help the body to heal itself.  The power of the magnet has been shown to accelerate the production of oxygen in the blood.  This process is a key to faster healing.  Another theory is that magnets may help to by attracting the waste material from the body so that it can be eliminated, which is also a key to healing. The most effective use of magnets is by placing them on the specific spot for pain management.  Fibromyalgia patients find this use of magnets to be especially helpful.  Magnets can also help to improve blood circulation.

In ancient times, it was believed that magnets held magical powers that helped with healing and keeping the wearer looking younger.  For example, it is documented that Queen Cleopatra wore a lodestone (their term for naturally occurring magnets) in order to retain youthful looking skin.  These traditions and natural cures using magnets were passed from one generation to another until modern medicine began to prescribe pain medication and other treatments that lead us to believe that magnets were no longer needed for pain relief and healing.

Today, magnets are found to remain useful in the healing process.  They have been tested as an alternative therapy for many different diseases. Magnets offer a noninvasive way to better health.  For example, the Chinese continue to use magnets in the practices of reflexology and acupuncture.  Several studies have attempted to document the effect of magnets on cancer cells.  Other studies have considered the use of magnets on patients suffering with osteoarthritis.  

As humans learn more about their bodies, they are also rediscovering the wisdom of the ancients.  The reasons many of these remedies were passed from generation to generation was that they worked.  Magnets can be used for healing as well as for pain relief.  The best results are found when one uses a high quality magnet and places it on the designated area for healing.  Fibromyalgia patients and others with chronic pain are able to use a noninvasive means of pain relief that has no side effects.  The potential of using magnets for such dread diseases offers an exciting approach to healing that continues to be explored.  One day, you may join in telling the story of how a magnet saved your life.
