Which pole should a magnet be applied to a sore joint? history of the use of magnets in medicine

Magnetotherapy is a method of alternative medicine that uses the effect of a magnetic field on the human body for the purpose of treating and preventing various diseases.

There are two types of magnetic fields:

• variables- low-frequency and high-frequency;
• permanent.

• local magnetic therapy- in which the action of magnetic fields is directed towards certain areas human body (e.g. finger, joint);
• general magnetic therapy- when magnetic fields are directed to the entire body for the purpose of a general strengthening effect.

Through influence north pole the following therapeutic effects are achieved:

• internal energy increases;
• performance increases and mental activity;
• acidity in the body increases;
• the development and growth of bacteria is accelerated, and therefore the influence of this pole is contraindicated in the presence of infectious and inflammatory diseases in the acute period.

• pain is reduced;
• has an anti-inflammatory effect;
• the growth and development of bacteria stops;
• has an alkaline effect on the body;
• acidity in the body decreases;
• produces a calming effect on the nervous system;
• has a destructive effect on lipid ( fatty) sediments;
• a hemostatic effect is produced;
• the elasticity of the vascular wall increases.

Historical facts about magnetic therapy

Initially, the useful properties of magnets began to be used as a compass back in ancient China, when it was first noticed that if an elongated piece of a magnet was suspended in the air, one end always pointed north and the other south. Subsequently, compasses began to spread widely, reaching Europe. With their help, sailors made the greatest geographical discoveries.

Also, in ancient civilizations, magnets were used as a treatment for various diseases. This is evidenced by the records of Hippocrates, as well as the manuscripts of Egyptian priests. It was believed that the prepared powder from these minerals could have a laxative, anti-inflammatory, and hemostatic effect. However, the use of magnets for medicinal purposes has always been controversial issue among scientists and doctors. Some used them as a primary treatment, while others believed that magnetic powder was poisonous causing harm.

In China it is believed that vitality responsible for physical and mental health, is the Qi energy circulating in the body. Violation of the circulation of this energy provokes the development of various diseases. It is believed that it is possible to restore health through the use of magnets, which are applied to certain areas of the human body during treatment. This is done to restore normal progression vital energy Qi.

The famous alchemist and physician Paracelsus used magnets to treat various diseases. He, just like in China, isolated the existing life force in a person and called it “archaeus”. It was believed that a lack of archaeus in the human body led to various diseases. Paracelsus, considering the power of magnets amazing, used it to treat diseases such as epilepsy, diarrhea and others.

Franz Anton Mesmer, an Austrian philosopher and physician, studied the effect of a magnetic field on the human body and its use for medicinal purposes in medicine. The research society of which he was a member believed that it was possible to treat pain with magnets. of various etiologies, and neurological diseases. As a treatment, doctors in those days prescribed patients to wear magnetic bracelets, belts and pendants.

Today, more than one hundred and twenty million people around the world use magnetic therapy. People have long recognized it as a safe and effective treatment method.
The properties of magnets are used to treat diseases during postoperative rehabilitation, as well as as a preventive measure for various diseases. A constant magnetic field stimulates the body's immune forces, providing natural support to all vital systems and organs. Blood circulation is normalized and blood circulation improves.

It should also be noted that magnets are now widely used in manufacturing various means movements ( e.g. cars, buses, planes). In addition, their use is widespread in the manufacture of various toys and household appliances (e.g. microwave oven, toaster).

• Queen Elizabeth I of England's physician used magnets to treat her arthritis.
• Mozart was so delighted with Franz Anton Mesmer's research on the effectiveness of the influence of magnets on the human body that he sang it in his opera "Cosi fan tutte".
• Monks from Tibet use magnets to stimulate brain function; they believe that when they are applied to the head, cerebral circulation and memory improve.
• Queen Cleopatra of Egypt wore a magnetic amulet, believing that it preserved her youth.
• According to some sources, it is believed that the annual global turnover of magnetic products is approximately five billion dollars.
• In the CIS countries, magnetic therapy is a separate treatment method and is widely used in various medical institutions.
• In the United States of America, the therapeutic effects of magnetic therapy are considered unproven, therefore any advertising and sale of magnets as medical devices prohibited.

The mechanism of the therapeutic effect of magnetic therapy

• stationary OMT devices ( medical technology department);
• portable devices;
• magnetic decorations.

For superficial diseases, as a rule, they use portable devices, the advantage of which is their mobility. For more serious pathologies, the use of a stationary type device is indicated. There are also various jewelry with built-in magnets, but this kind of magnetic therapy can only be useful when minor violations health.

Thanks to the influence of magnetic fields on certain areas and mechanisms of the human body, the following positive results are observed:

• Metabolism improves, due to which correction occurs fat metabolism, which leads to a decrease in body volume.
• Under the influence of a magnetic field, the magnetization of iron in the blood changes, thereby increasing the ability of hemoglobin to better transport oxygen to tissues. The quality of oxygen delivery, in turn, improves the saturation of various organs and tissues with it, as a result of which the body’s metabolic rate increases.
• When exposed to a magnetic field, contraction occurs lymphatic vessels, which helps remove waste and toxins from the body.
• Tissue swelling is reduced ( for example, with heart pathologies, kidney diseases).
• There is more adequate functioning of blood vessels and nerve fibers.
• The use of a low-frequency magnetic field has a beneficial effect on the nervous system.
• Positive changes are observed in diseases associated with disorders of peripheral circulation and innervation ( for example, with diabetes).
• A favorable prognosis is observed in the treatment of all diseases that are accompanied by chronic inflammation.
• Accelerates the healing of damaged body tissues ( for example, after suffering burns, injuries).
• Reduces pain in chronic pain syndromes.
• The healing of scars after surgical interventions is accelerated.

Stationary OMT devices

• local emitters that allow you to focus the effects of magnetic fields on the necessary parts of the body ( e.g. muscles, joints);
• magnetic belts;
• solenoids of different diameters ( typically used to treat limbs);
• couch with movable solenoid ( for whole body treatment).

The magnetic therapy procedure does not take much time and does not require special preparation. The only thing that the patient is usually recommended to do before the procedure is to drink one glass mineral water to improve cell cleansing processes in the body.

Before the procedure, the patient lies down on a medical couch, which is equipped with a special movable device ( looks like a wide hoop) with solenoid-shaped inductors.

Then special magnetic belts are attached to the diseased areas of the patient’s body. With their help, the concentration of the magnetic field increases. During the procedure, a moving device, using the generated magnetic waves, affects the tissues of the patient's body. The magnetic field can penetrate inside to a depth of four centimeters. During the procedure, the patient does not experience any subjective sensations, except for slight vibration in the places where the magnetic belts are applied.

The magnetic therapy procedure has the ability to use about forty programs that are set by a computer. Each program is selected individually depending on a particular pathology.

Usually, to achieve best result, magnetic therapy is carried out by a course method. The course, as a rule, includes ten to fifteen procedures with a frequency of two to three times a week, depending on the disease and individual characteristics body. The duration of the procedure itself ranges from fifteen to forty minutes.

• back pain;
• joint pain;
• fatigue;

Indications for magnetic therapy

Magnets are widely used:

• for the treatment of many diseases;
• to prevent the development of diseases;
• in the process of postoperative rehabilitation.

In order to determine whether a person is sensitive to magnetic influence, it is necessary to apply a magnet to the center of the palm and wait for a reaction for a certain time.

Sensitivity to magnetic influence is determined as follows:

• if a person in the area where the magnet is applied felt pulsating sensations after five minutes, then his sensitivity is high;
• if a person feels a pulsation twenty minutes after applying the magnet, then his sensitivity is average;
• if sensations do not arise, then, consequently, there is no sensitivity to magnetic influence at all.

• cheats physicochemical characteristics cells;
• increases the permeability of cell membranes ( structure that separates the cell from external environment );
• changes the concentration of enzymes and hormones;
• reduces blood cholesterol levels;
• reduces blood viscosity;
• increases the permeability of the vascular wall;
• affects the level of acidity and alkalinity in the body;
• affects the activity of T-lymphocytes ( destroy foreign substances in the body and pathological cells );
• normalizes metabolism.

• diseases of the cardiovascular system;
• diseases of the respiratory system;
• diseases digestive system;
• ENT diseases ( ear, throat, nose);
• skin diseases;
• diseases of the musculoskeletal system;
• diseases of the urinary system;
• diseases of the nervous system;
• during the period of postoperative rehabilitation.

Contraindications for magnetic therapy

When prescribing magnetic therapy to a patient, the doctor will take into account the following factors:

• patient's age;
• general health;
• sensitivity to magnetic therapy;
• the presence of acute and chronic diseases;
• dynamics of the disease;
• stage of the disease;
• results of the research;
• mental state of the patient.,
  Among all known physiotherapeutic treatment methods, magnetic therapy is the simplest and safe procedure. Its implementation is indicated for those people who have contraindications to other physiotherapeutic procedures. Another advantage of the influence of magnets is that their influence can penetrate through clothing, plaster material, and skin treated with various creams and gels.

  Like anyone physical method, magnets have a certain effect on humans, but any harm due to the effect of magnetic therapy on the body has not yet been identified.

  Magnetic field deficiency syndrome

  In the fifties of the last century in Japan, doctors first identified and described magnetic field deficiency syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by the fact that when there is a lack of magnetic energy in a person, symptoms such as chronic fatigue, disruption internal organs, as well as changes in sleep and blood pressure.

  Hypomagnetism affects the speed of blood movement through the vessels, slowing it down, which leads to a decrease in oxygen delivery to organs and tissues. As a result of these changes, a person may feel decreased performance, weakness and drowsiness. Also, a deficiency of the magnetic field leads to a weakening of the body’s immune forces, which increases the risk of developing infectious diseases. inflammatory processes.

  In order to stabilize the magnetic field, Japanese doctors subsequently proposed the use of magnetic therapy. This type physiotherapy helps to normalize a person’s mental state, increase immunity, as well as improve blood circulation and nutrition of all organs and tissues.
  

Healing with magnetic fields is considered one of the softest and safest methods of treatment. What does this mean and why is it so universal?

The effect of this type of physiotherapy is impressive: up to 90% of patients using it feel relief. This is largely due to the naturalness of the method: inside each of us there is a magnetic field that is part of our body. Its violation worsens a person’s condition, and can subsequently result in illness. Correction of the magnetic field becomes the recharge that gradually brings the body back to normal or significantly improves the patient’s condition.

Magnetic fields exert both general action(for the entire body as a whole), and local (for an individual organ). And they affect us in different ways: a constant magnetic field (the softest) calms and dilates blood vessels. Variable is a good decongestant, analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent. Pulse has a stimulating effect and has a trophic and anti-inflammatory effect.

First of all, the nervous system reacts to magnetic fields. Then the endocrine, immune, cardiovascular, muscular, digestive, excretory, respiratory, skeletal systems.

The list of indications for treatment with magnetotherapy is quite impressive: various diseases of the cardiovascular system (hypertension of the I-II degree, ischemic disease heart disease, vegetative-vascular dystonia, etc.), diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system (injuries of the spine, spinal cord; cerebrospinal circulation disorders, osteochondrosis, neuritis, neuralgia, etc.), pathology of the endocrine system, vascular diseases ( obliterating atherosclerosis, endarteritis, venous insufficiency, etc.), diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system (arthritis, polyarthritis, bruises, sprains, dislocations, etc.), diseases of the bronchopulmonary system (chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma etc.), ENT pathology (sinusitis, chronic tonsillitis, otitis, pharyngitis, etc.), diseases gastrointestinal tract(gastric and duodenal ulcers, chronic gastritis, cholecystitis, colitis, hepatitis, etc.), diseases of the genitourinary system (cystitis, pyelonephritis, urethritis, etc.)

About the intricacies of the process

It is worth saying that the body responds to the magnetic field in a certain way: large molecules (enzymes, etc.) change orientation in space and thereby affect the biological and metabolic processes in the cell. A change in the potential of erythrocytes leads to an increase in the biological activity of the cell. Reducing the increased tone of vessels of both large, medium and small caliber improves blood microcirculation, nutrition and oxygenation of cells in organs and tissues, and also accelerates the elimination of toxins. As a result, metabolism improves, the inflammatory process decreases, swelling resolves, and the affected organ is gradually restored. Normal blood circulation makes the body resistant to disease.

The dosage is selected individually. Of all the existing magnetic fields (super-weak, weak, medium and strong), only weak ones are used in medicine - from 0.5 to 50 millitesla. On average, it is necessary to complete a course of 10 to 15 procedures, daily or every other day. The session lasts 20-25 minutes. Most often, the course is repeated after a month and a half to consolidate the effect, then after six months. Magnetic therapy is used in combination with drug therapy and in combination with other physiotherapeutic methods of influence.

And now about contraindications. Because the magnetic field lowers blood pressure, this treatment is not used or used with great caution in hypotensive patients and in people with a low heart rate (less than 60 beats per minute). In addition, magnetic therapy is not suitable for those who have a pacemaker.

And of course, for magnetic therapy, as for other types of physiotherapy, absolute contraindication are: oncology, benign neoplasms prone to progression open forms tuberculosis, mental disorders, increased body temperature (38 degrees). As for pregnancy, it all depends on the duration, the condition of the woman and the treatment method used.

The effect of the magnetic field on environment and the human body cannot be ignored. Therefore, over the long period of mankind’s acquaintance with the properties of magnets, our ancestors tried on themselves amazing properties for the treatment of an endless number of diseases.

Today, due to the emergence of a significant number of studies devoted to healing properties metals with magnetic properties, and thanks to the widespread use of home devices for magnetic therapy, the effect of a magnetic field on the human body has been well studied. And although official medicine refuses to recognize magnetic therapy as a treatment, as folk remedy Using a magnet is completely justified.

It is believed that magnets can treat various types of injuries:

• bruises
• cuts;
• fractures;
• ligament ruptures, etc.

Magnetic therapy also helps to avoid excessive scarring due to injuries. skin, normalize blood pressure, tone the body, help with problems in the genitourinary area, diseases of the ENT organs, joint pathologies etc.

The beneficial effects of a magnetic field are achieved by placing magnets in certain areas of the human body where active points are located through which the influence of the field quickly spreads.

• wrists;
• groin area.

Magnets also work outside these points, but their effect is not so pronounced, since large vessels are located in the three listed zones, which means that the “charged” blood quickly disperses throughout the body.

Magnetic therapy: from history

The story of a person's acquaintance with medicinal properties magnets go back thousands of years. The ancients took crushed magnetic powders internally in the hope that the miracle stone would “weaken” the stomach; they applied them to sore spots, hoping to get rid of pain and bleeding, swelling and even madness; they sprinkled crushed stone-magnet to enemies as poison.

For the first time, mentions of the influence of “magnetic stones” and their properties on humans are found in Ancient Chinese sources. Asians believed that magnets normalize the flow of vital energy. Wearing a magnet, as a way to strengthen your immunity, get recharged from a magnetic source and tone yourself, was also practiced in Ancient Egypt. Jewelry with magnetic inserts was worn by Cleopatra herself, and healers Ancient Greece They believed that magnets were a vital necessity in military campaigns, since they helped wounded soldiers recover faster.

Interest in healing magnets continued to grow in the Middle Ages, when the electromagnetic radiation of the planet was discovered. Western kings were treated with magnets for arthritis, and, for example, Indian customs required that a sick person be laid with his head to the north so that his position coincided with the magnetic field of the planet. Paracelsus also mentions magnets, noting in his works that wounds heal more intensively when treated in combination with magnetotherapy.

Magnetic therapy developed primarily where there was no professional doctors, but even where doctors were present, the magnetic field was recommended to patients as an additional home therapy to the main treatment. Thus, in the USA, traveling salesmen sold insoles, jewelry, bandages, belts and bracelets with magnets.

True, in the space age, Europe and America, unlike the East, where magnetotherapy is officially recognized, almost forgot about magnets due to the active development of pharmaceuticals. But in the Asian part of the world, many people still believe in the power of magnets and in the fact that whether a boy or a girl is born depends on the direction in which the heads of the spouses are directed during conception. To this day, in Tibetan schools, magnetic strips are applied to the neck and head for better learning. And in Korea, needles are charged with magnets before reflexology sessions.

By the 21st century from random help Magnetic therapy has moved into the category of science-based treatment methods.

The healing effect of a magnet is due to the fact that the magnetic field can impart blood inside our circulatory system certain properties. The magnetic field is safe for people. It, bypassing all the integuments, as well as body tissues and bones, affects physiological fluids, in particular blood, which supplies all organs and tissues of the body with oxygen and nutrients.

1. Magnets improve blood circulation and vascular condition. Iron contained in human blood interacts with the magnetic field. The blood is ionized and begins to circulate more efficiently through the vessels, dispersing stagnation. Thanks to a complete blood supply, the condition of the nervous system, joints, and bones improves.
2. Secondary magnet currents help reduce pain.
3. Another result of the magnetic effect on iron-containing red blood cells is the normalization of intracellular polarity, disturbed by all kinds of diseases and mutations.
4. The magnet activates the enzyme systems of the body.
5. Charged metal helps to quickly rid the body of toxins and activate its regenerative powers.
6. The sedative and anti-inflammatory effects of the electric field have also been proven.

Unlike other methods of physiotherapy, working with the human body using magnetic therapy excludes external interventions that are different from human nature. That is, a magnet is natural method effects that gently stimulate the intensity of blood circulation. The procedures do not involve any complex equipment, are cheap, and free of any risk.

Natural and artificially created magnets are used for treatment. The latter can be sources of permanent magnetic radiation different strengths or activated electrically. Electromagnets work when current passes through them. At home, this type of magnetic therapy is used in portable devices. The operating principle of a magnet does not depend on its type (permanent or electric).

Polar magnet poles treat various diseases:

• “+” helps against swelling and inflammatory processes;
• “–” from bacterial infection.

Using the influence of a magnetic field on the blood, you can effortlessly solve problems in your body such as: improving the condition of the body as a whole; relieving chronic pain; increasing immunity; increase in vitality; intensification of peripheral blood circulation; treatment of depression, etc.

Rules for magnetic treatment

You cannot treat with a regular household magnet. Only specialized medical products, used strictly according to the instructions and on the advice of a doctor, have a positive effect.

1. You cannot conduct a session on an empty stomach.
2. Alcohol and caffeine are prohibited during magnetic therapy.
3. It is better to perform the procedure at the same time.
4. Do not use a magnet when elevated temperature or pressure surges.

Magnetic “charging” for the body is carried out up to 4 times a day, the duration of each session should not exceed 20 minutes.

When is a magnet contraindicated?

There are a number of diseases and conditions of the body in which magnets cannot be used for medicinal purposes, so as not to aggravate the patient’s situation. Contraindications are absolutely specific and all of them are related to the fact that people suffering from these diseases are contraindicated for changes in the circulatory system that magnetic therapy can create. Magnetic therapy and:

• individual intolerance to magnet components.

For children under 18 years of age, only local magnetic exposure is indicated.

Magnet Application Points

1. Wrist

The wrist is an active point on the human body. This view is shared by both Asian and Western medicine. For example, the Chinese judge a person’s vitality by the condition of the wrist. It’s easy to attach a magnet here, say, by wearing it as a bracelet. The proximity of the vessels and the simplicity of magnetic therapy using a bracelet make this method home treatment magnets are the most popular.

Sellers of bracelets estimate that about 14,000,0000 bracelets with magnetic properties are sold around the world every year. This method of combating rheumatic or headaches, arthritis and motion sickness is used by pensioners, athletes and even children. The magnetic bracelet corrects the functioning of the respiratory system, cardiovascular system, and supports the body’s defenses during acclimatization or intoxication.

Neck jewelry made of active metals, therapeutic collars, belts or corsets supporting the spine with magnetic elements are very popular among those who are concerned about osteochondrosis, lordosis, joint diseases, bone problems, etc. The second category of people who choose to wear a magnet on their neck are patients with bronchopulmonary pathologies. Jewelry is also worn around the neck when gynecological diseases, dermatitis of the upper half of the body and high blood pressure. Sometimes the magnet is simply hung on a long string so that it hangs down to the area under clothing solar plexus or up to the belly.

1. Overlays “for sore spots”

Manufacturers produce underwear with magnetic strips or plates sewn into it, which fit snugly exactly where it is needed. There are ready-made knee pads, elbow pads, corsets, panties, and masks to solve a variety of problems.

The mats are intended for those who want to be treated for insomnia, neuroses and other misfortunes without leaving the sofa or their workplace. There are special mats-discs for placing on their carafe with water that needs to be magnetized. It is believed that rugs can reduce geopathogenicity around them. The magnetic disk is used for taking a bath, the duration of which should be no more than 15 minutes. A bath helps with the primary symptoms of acute respiratory infections, since magnetized water is a natural antiseptic. You can douche with it, gargle, apply to affected skin, or drink.

Devices treat everything. In the devices, magnets are positioned in a certain way: a low-frequency field is created that improves lymph and blood flow. Devices with magnets are effective in the treatment of osteochondrosis, since its cause is impaired nutrition and blood circulation in the vertebral disc, and the magnet just eliminates these problems.

Comfortable fit for those who travel or lead an active life.

Home remedies for magnet treatment

1. For lumbago, myositis, osteochondrosis, pain in the lower back and behind the sternum, acute respiratory infections, changes in atmospheric pressure, headaches, apply a magnetic field source to the sore spot. Stroke and move clockwise, up to 20 minutes, 3 times a day.
2. If there is a sudden change in atmospheric pressure, a magnet is passed through the carotid artery until the discomfort stops.
3. To prevent caries, teeth are magnetized for 2 hours on each side.
4. The nasal and frontal sinuses need to be “charged” during a runny nose, sinusitis and ARVI.
5. For sore throat and throat diseases, move the magnet from top to bottom for 20 minutes a day until the pain stops.
6. For pain in the eyes, a magnetic mask according to the standard 20-minute scheme will help.
7. In case of arrhythmia, the magnet should be worn near the heart for 24 hours, with a break of 3 days.
8. To intensify blood circulation, stroke your feet with a magnet until they turn red.
9. For bruises, you need to rub the bruises with a magnet.
10. For prevention, you can completely “charge” yourself with a magnet, passing it over the entire surface of the body from top to bottom.
11. Magnetized water is used externally and internally, there are no volume restrictions.
12. Magnetic therapy can be combined with herbal medicine. Healing herbal infusions act more effectively when simultaneous use with magnetotherapy.

modern medicine about magnetic therapy - the use of magnetic therapy in medicine

Magnetic therapy is primarily a natural therapy that does not involve any complex procedures. This is the simplest, cheapest, most painless and most reliable therapy known. Using magnetic therapy is extremely simple; there are no pills, no painful injections, etc. The only tool that is used is a magnet. The magnetic field created by the magnet is absolutely safe; it penetrates freely and painlessly through skin, tissue and bones. Magnetic therapy is extremely easy to use, but it is much more reliable than many other types of treatment. Electromagnets and permanent magnets have been proven to be extremely effective in restoring energy and strengthening the immune system and, accordingly, help cure many diseases and relieve pain. Millions of people around the world benefit from the positive effects of magnetic therapy.

magnetotherapy promotes

• improvement general condition body
• boost immunity
• reducing and relieving pain
• overcoming neuroses, stress and depression
• raising the energy level of the whole body
• improvement of peripheral circulation

effect of magnet on blood

The only moving element of the human body is blood, which circulates throughout the body, saturating it with all the necessary substances and at the same time cleansing it. It is the blood that ensures metabolism, delivering oxygen and nutrients to cells and removing carbon dioxide, toxins and other harmful substances. It consists of a liquid part - plasma and blood cells - erythrocytes, leukocytes, etc.

Under the influence of a magnetic field in such an environment, so-called weak currents arise, and the speed of movement of blood cells through the vessels increases. Due to the increased speed of blood flow, nutrients and oxygen dissolved in the blood reach organs and tissues faster, and waste products and harmful substances are eliminated faster. Thus, metabolism improves, tissue regeneration and healing improves, and faster healing occurs. bone for fractures.

Due to the increase in blood flow speed, the smallest blood vessels-capillaries that form the microcirculation system. Scientists have proven that on average half of them in an adult are in a clogged state. Anyone can feel this by wearing a magnetic bracelet, as their fingertips will become warmer. Improving microcirculation helps improve metabolism, tissue regeneration, and reduce swelling and inflammation.

The magnet improves blood circulation and normalizes blood pressure towards normal

Our blood under pressure enters the aorta and arterial system. The pressure created by blood velocity is dynamic, while the pressure exerted by blood on the walls of blood vessels is static.

The magnet is a “magnetic lens” and affects the linear movement of blood. Equally magnetized particles repel both from the magnet and from each other. Thanks to this, they move in parallel directions, and the speed of blood movement increases, but the pressure on the blood vessels decreases. Blood reaches the cells faster, supplying them with oxygen and nutrients, cell work accelerates - metabolism, and then the blood returns through the venous system to the heart and lungs.

Thanks to the higher speed, blood penetrates into the smallest peripheral blood vessels, thereby improving peripheral blood supply, and warmth spreads through the arms and legs. At the same time, in people with low blood pressure, exposure to a magnet does not lead to a decrease in pressure.

impact at the cellular-molecular level

Our body consists of 70 billion cells! Each cell participates in the metabolism of the whole organism, having its own metabolism. Under the influence of a magnetic field, additional channels open in the cell for the entry of beneficial substances and the removal of harmful substances. Thus, the metabolism of the cell and the whole organism improves.

magnets as disease prevention

Bridget Partner in her book "Magnet - Guardian of Health" compares the weakening impact of the Earth's magnetic field on our body with the negative impact of a lack of vitamins and finds many similarities. She recommends jewelry with magnets for the prevention and treatment of the following diseases:

• chronic pain ( headache, incl. migraine, joint pain of various origins, sprains, injuries, pain in postoperative period, poor tissue healing, pain due to diseases of internal organs, premenstrual syndrome).
• increased blood pressure (vegetative-vascular dystonia and hypertension in combination with drug therapy).
• neurosis-like conditions (stress, depression, impaired attention, insomnia, increased fatigue, decreased ability to work, absent-mindedness).

contraindications for magnetic therapy

• pregnancy
• electrical pacemaker
• severe somatic pathology
• early post-infarction period
• post-stroke period
• severe heart and respiratory failure
• high fever
• increased bleeding
• mental illness
• terminal states
• individual intolerance

Magnet treatment of severe bone fractures

Improvements due to exposure to magnetic fields are especially noticeable in the treatment of complex bone fractures. With such fractures, part of the damaged tissue often dies, which complicates treatment. “In such cases, magnetic fields can help,” says orthopedist at the Munich clinic Dr. Ludge Gerdesmeer.

The magnetic field plays a significant role in the formation and strengthening of bones and their cells. With fractures, as a rule, the blood supply to the broken parts of the bone is disrupted. The magnetic field improves blood microcirculation in this area, promoting rapid fusion. This not only speeds up the treatment process, but also improves the structure of the cells themselves. However, the treatment of fractures does not exhaust the possibilities of using magnetic therapy.

Magnetic therapy has a positive effect in the treatment of injuries (cuts, bruises, torn ligaments). In addition, using magnets reduces the formation of scars due to damage to the skin.

main areas of the body for independent use of magnets

• wrist
• groin area

It's hard to believe that such small permanent magnets - no bigger than a dot or spot on the body - can exert such a powerful beneficial effect thanks to its energy field. For the most effective impact of the magnetic field, small magnets must be placed in certain points and areas. Outside these points and zones of action, magnets also operate. However, the wrist, neck and groin areas are the three main areas where large blood vessels pass through which we can influence the entire circulatory system. To use magnets in these areas, you do not need to have any medical knowledge, since they are built into magnificent jewelry that is worn in these areas. Using bracelets, pendants, necklaces, earrings, etc. we successfully influence our blood circulation.

In Chinese as well as Western medicine, the wrist is the main area used for diagnostic purposes. Chinese doctors, for example, by examining the wrist, determine the condition, strength and vitality of all 12 main meridians. If both Chinese and Western medicine are united on this issue, the wrist should be recognized as a special area!

According to a report by a well-known European marketing firm, approximately 14 million magnetic bracelets have been sold worldwide. This figure proves that magnetic jewelry really does have a beneficial effect, and that satisfied customers recommend this product to their acquaintances, friends, colleagues and relatives. You've probably noticed that many people wear copper bracelets (these bracelets often leave a greenish mark on the wrist) - especially golfers.

history of the use of magnets in medicine

copper and its effects on the body

Copper is a highly conductive metal, and many people suffering from rheumatic pain, arthritis and headaches find copper bracelets to help them feel better. Wearing copper bracelets as a remedy for arthritis is not based on superstition. Today it has already been precisely established, and this is confirmed latest research at the University of Arkansas that treating arthritis with metals such as copper and zinc can be very effective. It was possible to prove that enzymes that depend on the presence of these elements play a decisive role in the formation of tissues. Patients suffering from arthritis have seen significant improvements using this method.

Some energetix magnetic bracelets are made of pure copper. This has particular benefits for people suffering from severe arthritis or rheumatism. Recent research has shown that arthritis can be more effectively treated with trace minerals, particularly copper and zinc. The combination of a copper bracelet with a magnet has a double effect: the copper from the bracelet dissolves when you sweat, accumulates on the surface of the skin and is then absorbed into the bloodstream. At the same time, the magnet, stimulating blood circulation, promotes better distribution of copper (which has anti-inflammatory properties) in the body. Many people notice staining of the wrist when wearing such bracelets. This is the result of a natural oxidation reaction of copper upon contact with the surface of the skin. Coloring is good sign, green stains are easily washed off with soap and water.

Magnet healing at home, traditional medicine magnet.

Healing with a magnet at home has been used for quite some time. Diseases are cured by influencing human magnetic fields and this healing method is called magnetotherapy.

Conventional folk medicine against candidiasis has used such treatment more than once both in clinics and at home. Such healing does not cause any unpleasant feelings in a person, but at the same time it has a very beneficial effect on health.

This type of therapy has gained enormous popularity in China and the USA. In the country rising sun in fact, it is impossible to meet a person who does not wear a special bracelet made of magnets. To some extent, thanks to this, the inhabitants of the Land of the Rising Sun rarely get sick and live quite a long time, especially if associated with life expectancy rates in other countries.

It's no secret that the magnetic field in humans has special biological activity. If you influence it correctly, you can get a preventive and health-improving effect. Using a magnetic field, you can influence micromolecules that are in human body. For example, such an effect was noted on nucleic acids, proteins and other compounds of this type. After such exposure, the speed of all biological reactions and processes increases significantly, which has a positive effect on human health.

Each organism will be affected differently by magnets. But whatever this effect may be, it helps to correct the work various systems organs. You can often encounter situations where one particular organ works more or less than it should. Magnet traditional medicine heart attack heart attack has an effect in such a way that it leads characteristics organ performance returns to normal.

Various pathological processes that can be observed in the human body change to positive ones. Healing with magnets at home allows magnetic field distribute the healing effect to the entire human body. If you use magnetic therapy often, you can quickly improve blood circulation.

They almost always use special devices called tape recorders. They look like an ordinary plate and you can find them in almost every pharmacy. If you want to use all-encompassing healing, you can also purchase micromagnets, which are used in some clinics. Such ordinary devices are attached to unhealthy areas of the body using adhesive tape and thus create an alternating magnetic field. This can be done both in the clinic and at home.

Micromagnets resemble activated carbon pills, but a little larger. You need to wear them for a certain number of days and not take them off, this is the only way to feel their positive effect on the body. It should be noted that if the device is broken, then under no circumstances should you try to fix it without the help of others and use devices of unknown horseradish plant origin in folk medicine. Unknown products can create an incorrect and even dangerous magnetic field, which will have a very negative impact on human health.

In addition to the fact that a magnet influences the change in enzymes that are part of nucleic acids and other active parts, it also affects free radicals in the human body. In this regard, healing occurs at the subcellular or submolecular level.

With the help of magnets, you can improve metabolism at the cellular level, purify the blood and improve its circulation.

Quite often, osteochondrosis is cured using this technique. But it is not the only thing a disease that can be cured in a similar way. Doctors who have used magnetic therapy in their own work for many years have identified several indications for which the coffee plant can be used in folk medicine for similar healing:

Naturally, with the help of magnets it is impossible to cure all diseases, but in some situations you can improve your health. With all this, it is very important to follow certain instructions so as not to harm the body.

Due to the fact that healing with magnets is a specific method and quite difficult to use, there are contraindications. Experts identify several groups of people who need to be as careful as possible in using magnetic therapy:

Before you start magnet treatment at home, you need to follow a few simple rules:

Cardiovascular diseases can be treated using magnets. To do this, just wear magnets on yourself. Already repeatedly It has been proven that magnets make blood less viscous, prevent blood clots from forming, and blood vessels retain their elasticity longer. It is worth emphasizing that this therapy is especially useful for people over forty years of age.

Can be controlled using magnets blood pressure. With all this necessary take into account several nuances. If a man has high blood pressure, then he needs to wear a bracelet and be sure to right hand. If a woman has high blood pressure, then such a bracelet should be put on her left hand. With the burdock plant in folk medicine for low blood pressure, it is necessary to do the opposite in traditional medicine and the immune system.

Magnets are very effective for fractures and can make the victim’s condition less severe. In addition, the influence of the magnet prevents the formation of scars and removes scars. In order to solve this problem, the magnet must be worn as close as possible to the damaged area of ​​the body. If magnetic therapy is used regularly, wounds heal faster and the body recovers more actively.

Magnets are especially good at helping solve joint problems. Traditional medicine Interesting Facts, this is especially true for arthrosis of varying degrees of complexity. As a treatment, you only need to apply a magnet to the joint that hurts, and very soon the pain will become less intense.

In order to cure a sore throat, it is enough to stroke the neck and throat directly with a magnet. The influence of the magnet will numb the pain, and swallowing will become much easier. An alternative in this case could be a magnetic necklace.

If you suffer from caries or have toothache, then you need to stroke the outer side of the jaw with a magnet for thirty minutes in the place where the problem is.

If your eyes get very tired, stroke the bridge of your nose with a magnet. Then close your eyes and move the magnets in their area.

Magnetotherapy This is far from a new method of treatment, but even today it has not yet been fully studied, and therefore you need to be as careful as possible when using it.
