Can Healing With Magnets Really Work?

There is a growing movement today towards what is called alternative or complementary health treatments for chronic pain. Many people are looking for answers through alternative health treatments because they are tired of invasive medical procedures or taking medications that don't really work.

Of course, traditional medicine can be helpful, in some situations and for some people. But if you have chronic pain that hasn't been well controlled with medication or other medical means, you may want to consider trying magnetic jewelry therapy as an alternative or add-on treatment.

For centuries, people in the eastern part of the world, such as China and Japan, have been using energy therapies for better health. Western doctors dismissed these approaches as "quackery" and "old wives' tales" for many years. But more and more healthcare professionals today are starting to recognize the value of many of these therapies, including magnetic therapy.

Magnetic jewelry therapy is thought by many to be helpful in relieving the pain of arthritis, other types of chronic pain, headaches, pain with fibromyalgia, and carpal tunnel syndrome. However, the jury is still out in many parts of the medical community... mostly due to the fact that not enough scientific studies have been done yet to prove whether magnetic therapy jewelry really does work.

But it's important to remember that many of the therapies that ARE accepted today, like acupuncture and yoga, also started out without much support until enough studies were done to prove what ordinary people already knew... they worked.

Magnetic therapy is using magnets for health purposes. In other words, wearing or placing magnets on your body to influence your bodily processes in a positive way. Many claims have been made about how magnets work.


Some say that they improve blood circulation.
Others believe that they alter how nerve cells respond to pain or how the brain perceives pain.
Still others theorize that magnets increase oxygen content in the blood.
A few people have suggested that they move ions—or energy fields—within the body.
Some theories say that magnets increase the temperature of the body part where they are used.

The bottom line is that no one knows for sure what magnetic therapy effects are exactly on our bodies. The same is true for many medical and alternative therapies today. And just because we don't understand how they work doesn't negate the fact that they do... at least for some of us.

If you've been investigating magnet therapy, you may have heard of the Baylor Study, which was research conducted at Baylor School of Medicine in the late 90s that seemed to support the benefits of magnets for health and pain relief. But more studies will be needed before there is widespread support by doctors for magnets. Luckily, more research is in the works, and it's being conducted via a grant from a reputable source... the US National Institutes of Health, in Bethesda, Maryland.

For centuries, Eastern medicine—such as that practiced in China and Japan—has focused on the energy fields in the body. Yoga, tai chi, qi gong, acupuncture, acupressure, and more have focused on manipulating energy fields in the body.

Healthcare professionals in the western world are starting to realize more and more that these practices show consistent results and are more based in science than originally thought. So isn't it possible that magnetic therapy could also have a positive effect on our energy fields?
