Magnets are they helpful to your health?

Question

I have been using them and I feel great! I am going to cover myself in magnets!

Answer 1

Of course not. It's just another altmed fantasy, invented to scam money from simple minded people.

You had some trivial health complaints, which would have resolved themselves anyway and you have mistakenly credited your magnets with this recovery.

Answer 2

There isn't a shred of credible evidence anywhere showing any beneficial effects of "magnetic Therapy" doing anything at all in controlled double blind clinical studies. Placebo effect account for occasional relief, but often it is the body's own healing and not the Magnets that caused it. This coincidence happens quite often, hence the "belief" that magnets have any healing properties whatsoever.

Answer 3

I have not only used magnets for ppl with joint problems, arthritis and other dieases with tremendous results..

But as a life long horse woman I have also used to heal low joint injury on horses by wrapping magnets around the inflammed joint with FABULOUS results.

For the gent who said 'it is in our heads'...Tell it to my horses(smile)

Only the ones on my refrigerator holding up my shopping lists.

Answer 5

Magnets help, by taking away the joint pain. They have also helped  a rib facture heal in half the time. While I have heard the emphasis that magnets will not heal, but that they do take the pain away. There is no need to cover oneself with magnets, there are matrasses with magnets in them to sleep on, and I would think that if any healing is to occur it makes sense that it can be done at night while one is sleeping.

Answer 6

no magnetism on its own wouldn't penetrate deeply enough to affect us, but electro magnetism has shown little effect to none. sorry but magnet therapy magnets are weaker than fridge magnets.

Answer 7

Keep the medicine Zincum Metalicum 30 one dose 3 globules with you.  A day will come when you think, you should not have done it.  Take that medicine.  It will antidot all the ill  effects of artificially inducted magnetisation of the body.  with best wishes.

Answer 9

I've used magnets for bruises, headaches, sore muscles and joint pain. They work for me. Other people have laughed at me for using them, but all I can say is--they work for me!
