Arthritis Bracelets - The
Benefits
by Flor Serquina
Arthritis is a general term for many
variations of the same disease. Among them are osteoarthritis - the
most common, reactive arthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis, the last
being one of the worst forms of arthritis. This chronic disease is
painful but there are traditional and unconventional products and
treatments available today to provide the patient with as much comfort
as possible. One of the most controversial alternative treatments for
this disease is arthritis bracelets.
What Are Arthritis Bracelets?
Arthritis bracelets contain permanent
magnets inside them. These magnets produce static magnetic fields that
can reportedly cure individuals from arthritis when placed in the right
areas. The effectiveness of arthritis bracelets are based on founding
principles of magnet or magnetic therapy, also known as magnotherapy.
Studies have been conducted to determine the
effectiveness of arthritis bracelets. These studies will typically
divide subjects into three groups: one would wear arthritis bracelets
using standard magnet strengths, another would wear arthritis bracelets
using weak magnet strengths, while the last group would use arthritis
bracelets using no magnets at all. All users would have to wear their
bracelets for twelve weeks or a span of three months.
The results favored the use of arthritis
bracelets. Firstly, the study was able to rule out any lasting
influence of factors like the use of painkillers and personal beliefs
of users on the effects of the magnetic therapy products. Secondly, the
study revealed that those who reported with the most favorable results
came from the group wearing arthritis bracelets using standard magnet
strengths.
Other Benefits of Magnetic Bracelets
Of course, magnetic bracelets are not only
used for treating arthritis. Searching history vaults revealed that
magnetic bracelets have already been utilized for thousands of years.
Egyptians and Greeks were the first to report its therapeutic benefits.
In 2000 BC, Chinese texts also revealed that magnets used in
acupuncture had yielded positive results. Today, athletes of various
sports have expressed their satisfaction after using magnetic
bracelets.
Studies have shown that magnetic bracelets
are also able to prevent the spread of cancer cells in animals. Lastly,
magnetic bracelets have been claimed to successfully treat bacterial
infections, stress, and chronic fatigue and magnetic field deficiency
syndrome.
How Do Arthritis Bracelets Work
To understand the healing process used by
arthritis bracelets, you first need to recall your old lessons about
magnetic fields. These are produced by various factors like the weather
and other natural forces and generated by items like computers,
microwave ovens, television sets, and other electronic products. When
exposed to magnetic fields, our bodies experience decreased pH levels
and weakened immune systems.
Magnets have both north and south
polarities. They come from the two magnetic poles in our world - the
North and South Pole. These allow magnetic bracelets to penetrate our
skins more easily and have stronger effects. An arthritis bracelet with
the appropriate magnetic strength will create a magnetic field. This
magnetic field will then penetrate your skin and reach your muscles and
tissues. Any noted inflammation or swelling may be alleviated by the
magnetic field.
Benefits of Arthritis Bracelets
Here are some of the things you could enjoy
when trying arthritic bracelets:
Affordability. Compared to other alternative
treatments and medications for arthritis, magnetic arthritis bracelets
are more affordable. And since they have been acknowledged to be safe
to use, there is relatively little harm from trying them out.
Ease of Use or Convenience. It can be
tedious having to remember the right time of the day to take your
medicine. Fortunately, there's no need for timetables when you're using
arthritis bracelets. The healing process commences the moment you wear
an arthritis bracelet, and after that, you need not do anything else.
Improved Circulation. Exposure to magnetic
fields allow air and blood to circulate more freely and deliver the
necessary nutrients to your organs, blood vessels, muscles, and joints.
Better circulation means lesser pain.
Pain. The greatest benefit arthritis
bracelets can provide you with is pain relief. This has been supported
by data from various studies. There is no need to take a lot or even
any painkillers. Pain is eased bit by bit the longer you have your
arthritis bracelet on. And with the pain lessened significantly, you'll
experience greater freedom of movement.
Lastly, arthritis bracelets also claimed to
contain anti-inflammatory properties, potentially making it an aid in
solving the root problem of arthritis instead of being simply effective
against arthritis symptoms.
