The healing
properties of magnet were known from the time immemorial. In
the days of Cleopatra, ladies of Egypt wore magnetic jewelry which protected
them from diseases and kept their youth. Magnetic therapy occupied central
stage in the medieval medicine. Even great Mozart eulogized magnetic
therapy in one of his works. But in the early 20th century due to the invention
of antibiotics and other effective antibacterial medicine, methods of magnetic
therapy paled into insignificance. And only recently - in the last decades -
healing features of magnets regained the former popularity.
And it is
no wonder since it is simple, accessible and cheap. Besides, magnetic therapy is very convenient and can be
combined with work and everyday activities. You only need to buy a special magnetic
bracelet and wear it all the time Nowadays such magnetic bracelets are widely
spread among people of any age and occupation.
So, what's
the effect of magnet on different processes in human body? First, as it turned out,
magnetic force lines accelerate red blood cells moving in circulatory system. It
results in quicker oxygenation and nourishing of organs and tissues. Accordingly,
products of metabolism and carbon dioxide are more quickly removed from the
body. This property has multiple positive effects. First, due to accelerated «renewal»
of tissues, all organs function well. Second, in case of pathology in any
organ, transport of humoral contained in (blood) immune system factors is
improved, which stimulates quicker recovery. Third, the improved blood flow stimulates
the activation of the natural reserve powers of the vascular system which did
not participate in circulation before. For example, the capillary net in human body
keeps «in store» quite a considerable volume of capillaries which remains
unused through the life, and stays in the «stuck together» state. Thus, improvement
of blood flow increases the vascular volume of capillary net therefore providing
better perfusion and nutrition of deep-lying tissues.
As it is
well known, the body and the brain form a whole, so improvement of the
condition of visceral organs certainly causes mood lift, stimulation of
intellectual activity, and improvement of psycho-emotional state of a person.
Aside from
the indirect effect, magnetic bracelets have direct healing effect. It is known
that with advancing age red blood cells, due to the action of different factors,
bond forming entire conglomerates. These cells are called agglutinated; they
are practically unable to function and to transport oxygen to the tissues. Magnetic
field lines stimulate gentle separation of red blood cells without causing
their destruction and thus restoring them to their natural state.
Magnetic
field has one more interesting biological property: it stimulates generation of
special substances - endorphins - released by central nervous system; they are
in some way «home-produced» pain-killers. That's why pain syndromes of
different origin are indications for magnetic therapy in general and for
wearing magnetic bracelets in particular. These bracelets are very effective in
therapy of arthropathies, sleep disorders, prostate cancer, liver and kidney
diseases, diabetes, bone fractures, unsteady arterial pressure, rheumatic
disease, stresses and many other health problems.
Today,
there is quite a large variety of magnetic bracelets. Their essential property -
therapeutic effect - is permanent, so to guarantee the quality of the bracelets
we advise you to buy them from licensed dealers. As to the second property -
their aesthetic appeal - it depends upon the consumer's taste and his preferences.
The magnetic part of these bracelets is commonly made of neodymium, and the external
part may be covered with steel, rhodium, palladium, titanium or even gold.
Despite the
broad therapeutic spectrum of this remedy type, we should not forget that
magnetic bracelets are supportive therapy; they can not be used alone, but only
along with the basic therapeutic treatment.
