Our part 1 discussion on magnetic jewelry was focused on the basics, including what this type of jewelry is made of. We talked about what types of jewelry you'll find available for sale, and the fact that some magnets are man-made and some are natural. We also covered the popularity of magnetic therapy world wide, and how it is used for pain relief. In this second part of our discussion, I'll cover some of the theories on how magnetic therapy relieves pain and inflammation. I'll also talk about the reported benefits, some warnings, and what to look for before you buy. If you're just learning about magnetic jewelry for the first time, you're probably starting to realize why so many people use it. If you've been considering magnetic jewelry for a while, you already know that pain relief may be just a bracelet or anklet away. Magnetic Jewelry is recognized for reducing pain due to injuries, old or new, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and during or after athletic activities. Some research shows that pain is often linked with poor circulation and a lack of oxygen in the affected area. When there's swelling, fluids are trapped in the affected area and cell wastes are not carried away as efficiently as they should be. It's been said that the magnets in the jewelry help to relieve pain and inflammation by increasing blood flow to the affected area. Purchase and use your magnetic jewelry properly. Magnetic therapy experts say that many people simply are not using these products in the right way. Magnetic bracelets are intended to relieve muscle and joint pain in the fingers, hands, wrists, elbows, arms and shoulders. Magnetic necklaces are designed to relieve muscle and joint pain in the shoulders and upper back, as well as relieve headaches. Anklets are intended to work the lower part of the body including the feet, ankles, legs, and possibly the hips. Magnetic earringsare used to relieve pain in the ears, neck, and jaw.Sometimes they are used for headaches as well. Magnetic rings are used for pain relief in the fingers and hands. With respect to earrings and rings, however, either a bracelet or a necklace might be a better choice. Your best bet for effectiveness is to always you buy the jewelry with the strongest and largest number of magnets available. Wear your jewelry as close to the skin as possible so the magnetic field can penetrate, without it being too tight. Always ensure that you wear the jewelry as close to the pain as possible. So, don't buy a bracelet for leg pain. Wear the magnets 24 hours per day, 7 days per week until the pain is gone so that you experience continuous benefits. A wide variety of health benefits have been attributed to magnetic jewelry. Unfortunately, a number of less than legitimate businesses have made outrageous claims so beware. Some of the jewelry being sold is very low quality, and the magnets may not be strong enough to provide the proper benefits. Most people can wear magnetic jewelry with no problems, but you should check with you doctor if you have a pacemaker, are pregnant, or have any metal in your body. In addition, if you have other serious health conditions, you may not be able to wear magnets. Obviously, the use of magnets should never replace care by qualified medical professionals. People who have used magnets for healing report that they have had the following benefits: fewer headaches, less pain and stiffness in their joints and muscles, more restful sleep, reduced allergy symptoms, and an overall feeling of well-being. We have many repeat customers, and many of these bring us new customers as referrals. This positive response from hundreds of customers is on of the best indications of effectiveness. A number of medical professionals started using and testing magnetic therapy on their patients after having good personal results with magnetic jewelry. They have discovered that many patients have experienced substantial pain relief and increased functioning as a result of wearing magnetic jewelry. Magnetic therapy is a widely used alternative pain relief method. The drawback, however, is that it's difficult to deliver this therapy on a continuous basis. Since you can take magnetic jewelry with you, this therapy can work on the pain 24 hours per day. That, and the fact that it also can be a stylish accessory, are two of the reasons it has become so popular.
