For generations, Magnetic therapy has mainly been utilized as a safe and effective remedy for pain for many conditions. These include those for back, knee pains and even arthritis and migraines. For effective use of these magnets, they are usually utilized directly on the affected region of the body, for instance, the knee. This type of therapy have also encompassed acupuncture related treatments with the various acupuncture points being utilized as well.
The use of magnets have an effect on the ion channels within our bodies. The said Ions are positively or negatively charged electro chemicals that move through these “channels”. As these ions move through the channels they are able to affect pain signals, muscle contractions and several other processes which our bodies require to function.
This is in direct relation to the nerves that deliver pain signals, where the magnets would be able to effectively reduce or block them. The channels can also be affected through other means such as drugs or electrical impulses.
This form of treatment has been highly thought of due to its safe and non invasive nature. The use of magnets for this purpose brings minimal side effects whilst being able to be used for extensive periods of time, as often as needed. This treatment boasts an effectiveness of more than 90%, which all things considered is an exceptional rate.

When it comes to traditional remedies, we tend to turn towards the use of applying heat or icing to quell the pain and swelling. However with this form of treatment, their effectiveness are usually not immediate where they require time to work at its maximum capacity.
Magnet Therapy removes this disadvantage as they work the same way at even a quicker rate, all of which has been shown in results through research. These magnets have also proved to be successful in the treatment of a variety of conditions. Ranging from bruises or swelling to even stimulating the recovery of bone breakage and post surgery trauma.
The reason why magnets are so effective is due to their wider range and reach, where they are able to penetrate through muscle tissues to stimulate recovery.
