Magnetic bracelets for the purpose of pain relief or other healing are considered a hoax by some and simple truth by others. No matter how you look at them there are things to consider when it comes to the safety of wearing these bracelets. Even a magnet bracelet worn as a fashion statement will have a certain influence on you and the surrounding so make sure to learn just how you should use your bracelet before you put it on!

The Power of Magnets

Magnets can be very powerful and when put several of them together this strength can certainly be felt and seen. Just take a magnetic bracelet which is made up of several units that click together by the magnet power. If you take it apart and place it on a table it will quickly build itself back into the original structure. Just how strong the magnet is comes down to its Gauss rate, the higher the Gauss, the stronger the magnet.

What to avoid

Even if you were to wear a magnetic bracelet with a Gauss value of a regular fridge magnet (around 50 Gauss) it could influence things in its proximity. Take a magnet from the hobby store and place it on your watch. You will see that the watch will stop working as the magnet is messing it up. More problematic than this is the influence magnets can have on credit cards. You must be careful not to place your magnetic bracelet close to any credit or debit cards as this could erase information or completely destroy the function of the card.

A person with a pacemaker should never play around with strong magnets as this could seriously influence the function of the device that keeps their heart going!

Research on Effects of Magnets

There is still a lot of research on the effects of magnets going on. The subject is very interesting but today you will mostly find people within natural medicine recommending this method for treatment of pain and other ailments. If you want to wear a magnetic bracelet you need to get it from an honest jeweler who understands the expectations you might have on it. This is important when you ask questions and need to get safe and truthful answers.

Over-influence of Magnets

Other products, like massage instruments, that are used in Western medicine for treatment of pain and tension, come with recommendations of restricted use. Magnets are also thought to increase blood circulation just like a massage instrument and the same caution should be practiced with magnetic jewelry and health devices.

If you overdo it you could actually feel more strain by using a magnetic bracelet. However, it is known that an effective treatment of pain usually starts off by an increase of symptoms. Make sure to monitor the effects of your magnetic bracelet. It might be for you just like another piece of jewelry but if you sense that something is going on you should immediately take it off and talk to a professional that can guide you to the right conclusions.
