When a retailer has a customer who is interested in magnetics, the customer is likely to ask about how they are going to help. The most common reasons to use magnets are for pain management, but there are many other uses. Like so many things in pharmacy and clinical medicine, new knowledge is emerging all the time and traditional training, both undergraduate and postgraduate, does not keep up with the newest changes. Magnetic medicine is one of these new areas. The body is transparent to a magnetic field.
Magnetic fields move through the body as if it was air.
This makes them ideal for treatment. Unlike electric stimulation, commonly used in physical therapy, which hurts and can cause tissue damage, magnets do not harm tissues. They act very physiologically and usually the body returns to homeostasis quickly when they are withdrawn. The kinds of magnets that you have in your store are static or permanent magnets. There is an extensive research literature on the effects of magnets and of magnetic fields on human and animal biology.
