'There have been magnet bracelets, bangles and necklaces, magnetic underlays on beds etc. around for years. Yet many people would not know much about this therapy as doctors don't usually recommend it.
The technique consists of treating various health problems by applying small magnets on the skin.
Magnetic therapy is effective because magnetic fields influence living organisms and are completely natural phenomena that play an important role in the functioning of our biological systems. According to Dr. Orengo,(a French orthopaedic surgeon), without magnetic fields, life as we know it would cease to exist.
Magnetic fields created by small therapeutic magnets provide beneficial results because they increase blood flow in areas needing treatment, which in turn provides cells with more oxygen.
They also trigger a series of biological changes that can affect the migration of calcium ions; excess acidity (by balancing H levels in the body); endocrine functions (magnetic fields either increase or decrease glandular activity); enzyme activity and other biochemical processes.'
