Magnet Therapy

Magnet Therapy, also known as Magnetic Therapy, Biomagnetic Therapy, Magnetic Wave Therapy or Magnetotherapy.  

It is the self help use of magnets to improve the health and ease pain.  It is based on the theory that magnets can help to re-balance the electromagnetic energy field that surrounds the body.

It is also claimed that magnets are capable of electrically charging iron atoms in red blood cells so they work more energetically.

This circulatory speed-up means that toxins are removed more quickly, muscle and joint pain is relieved, and natural healing processes are stimulated.
