Wearing magnetic jewelry is a form of magnetic therapy and is a natural, holistic method for alleviating pain and discomfort. Magnetic therapy has been around since 2000 BC and is rooted in Chinese medicinal practices. The magnetic beads work because the iron in our blood is attracted to the magnetic field in the magnet. As the blood is attracted towards the area where the magnetic pull is, the blood flow is increased. When the blood flow is increased, a large amount of fresh oxygen, nutrients and hormones is distributed to that area of the body. With this new and rich supply of oxygen and nutrients, any injuries or ailments that may exist in this area of the body dissipates and heals. The magnetic beads will also stimulate blood flow and circulation. As the blood flow is stimulated, the blood flow through the heart is increased. This results in increased oxygen that gets to organs and tissues in the body. Through this process, overall general health is improved. Because the blood is attracted to the magnetic pull, magnetic jewelry will also help to improve circulation and help to lower blood pressure. Please be aware that magnetic therapy dies not CURE ailments. It is only used to treat the symptoms of a particular ailment. Therapeutic Magnetic Jewelry is particularly helpful for people with the following conditions: Rheumatoid Arthritis Osteoarthritis Fibromyalgia Osteporosis Repetitive Strain Injury Carpal Tunnel Syndrome High Blood Pressure Tennis Elbow Reynaud's Disease Gout Poor Circulation Rheumatica
