Are You Attracted to Magnetic Jewelry? (magnetic ball bracelets)

(magnetic ball bracelets)Why would you want to buy jewelry that is not just attractive but has magnets embedded?

That question has been the focus over many years of numerous academic studies and by those who are just plain sceptical of the claimed beneficial effects of magnets.

Some of the studies seem to suggest that just maybe there could be some benefit from wearing magnets close to the skin. However, you will probably find the words "placebo effect" somewhere in the same article.

Yes, you do see manufacturers claiming pain relief for arthritis, back, wrist, shoulder etc. It is these claims that the researchers find difficult to endorse and perhaps they never will.

There was a time when the medical profession had difficulty with the efficacy of osteopathy. Now many doctors refer their patients to an osteopath or similar. Maybe you cannot compare the two practices but you have to put yourself in the position of a person in discomfort who has tried the standard medical treatments. If these treatments are not proving efficacious should the sufferer just sit back and accept the pain or try to improve their standard of life? Those who in the past have put their hand in their pockets to be treated by an osteopath, food allergy expert etc. know the answer to that question.

I know of one person who wore a small magnetic wrap above her knee to try to relieve the terrible discomfort she felt in her leg when walking. Did the discomfort ease? No, in fact, it became worse and she had to stop wearing it. It transpired that the lady had a blocked vein and it was that circulatory problem that was causing the pain. Did the discomfort intensify because the magnets were attempting to increase the blood flow where there was a blockage?

Another lady bought a magnetic bracelet
(magnetic ball bracelets), put it on her right wrist and started to feel ill. She transferred it to her left wrist and the problem ceased. Later she tried to wear it on her right wrist but again she felt ill.(magnetic ball bracelets)

In both the cases were the magnets having an effect on the body?
(magnetic ball bracelets) They were not part of any controlled clinical trials and so we will never know. It is doubtful whether clinical trials would prove conclusive. All that can be said is that the magnets did appear to be having some effect.
What can we conclude from the above? If you have a problem and think magnetic therapy
(magnetic ball bracelets) might help, why not give it a try? If you are a pregnant lady or if you have a pacemaker then definitely do not use magnetic products (magnetic ball bracelets). As ever, if you have any doubts, firstly consult your doctor.

There is some beautiful magnetic jewelry
(magnetic ball bracelets) for sale these days. Even if you are a sceptic, why not just enjoy the bracelet or whatever for what it is - a pleasing and attractive piece of jewelry.
