Today, many people believe that certain places on Earth, such as Lourdes, France, and Sedona, Arizona, owe their healing powers to high level of Bio-magnetic energy. The Chinese have referred to this energy as “Chi”, the Japanese as “Ki” and even the Native Americans referred to it as “Orenda”. Reiki Practitioners refer to the healing powers of the Universal Life Force to describe this energy field. Clinical studies and personal evidence suggests that people experience a beneficial effect of exposure to magnetic energy. Hundreds of studies are available worldwide on fixed and pulsed magnetic therapy. Evidence shows that it stimulates and enhances the body’s natural healing process. Studies suggest that Electro-Magnetic Energy is even more beneficial than stationary magnets. The father of modern medicine and Greek Philosopher Hippocrates wrote several thousand years ago, “The natural force within each of us is the greatest healer of all.”
Electrical activity in the body is essential. Our bodies need the energy provided by free electrons. We usually get them from food, water, air we breath. These “free” electrons, [Chi, Ki, Orenda, Universal Life Force] are the catalyst, the life force that burns oxygen in the cells. It is believed that magnetic energy field and Bio-magnetic energy levels in the body determine its resistance to “dis-ease” (disease) and aging. The body behaves like a battery. It can be charged and discharged and even drained of energy. Most “dis-ease” (disease), from the common cold to cancer can manifest itself in a run down body, one that is weak and low in energy. The food, water and air that we consume everyday unfortunately may not have the levels of electrons necessary for us to maintain a health and fully charged body.
Life developed under the influence of the earth’s magnetic field. It logically follows that magnetism and the interference with the body’s electromagnetic activity play such a major role in health and in disease.
The ancient Greeks discovered lodestone, a magnetic rock that had healing properties. The early Chinese recorded the use of magnets in medical literature. Medical use of magnets has been reported throughout the ages and in recent years, has been the subject of worldwide interest.
Although they may seem magical in their capacity to heal, magnets are not magic. Their function is very simple. Magnetotherapy assists the body to regain its self healing electromagnetic balance naturally. The body, each organ and each cell of every organ is influenced by electromagnetism. Cell regulation, tissue function and life are controlled by electromagnetic currents.
Lack of magnetism, as outlined by Dr. Nakahowa in his classic paper “Magnetic Deficiency Syndrome”, may cause stress mental disorders, headaches, arthritis, muscle pain, osteoporosis, chronic fatigue, allergies, insomnia, inflammation, circulatory problems, bowel disorders and many other degenerative problems afflicting people today.
Universal Cure-All? In the search for a universal cure-all, none fits the description nearly as well as magnetic energy therapy. The application of magnets has given a proven pain relief in seven out of 10 users - as good or better than orthodox medicine. Magnetotherapy is far less expensive and has no dangerous side effects often seen with prescription drugs; however, proper advice and care should be taken when using strong or large magnets about the head. Treatment with magnets is not addictive and does not interfere with other therapies, but it should not be used if a pacemaker or defibrillator is worn.
Researchers have stated magnetic field therapy rebalances altered metabolic functions that cause pain; edema (tissue swelling); excess acid in the tissues; and lack of oxygen in the cells thereby initiating tissue healing and pain relief. Skin calcification, the cause of skin aging and wrinkles, disappear. Joint mobility increases and muscles become more flexible. Digestion and elimination improve, prostates shrink and kidneys eliminate body wastes more effectively. Mental function increases, energy levels go up and sleep is better. Tests have shown that organisms placed under a magnetic field live longer.
Because it potentiates the body’s free radical scavenger and antioxidant system, magnetotherapy is reported to be valuable in counteracting degenerative processes causing heart and circulatory diseases, arthritis and auto immune illness, as well as neuro degenerative and allergic afflictions.
Natural Pain Relief Drinking magnetized water is said to impart many similar benefits. Wearing back, neck or joint supports with permanent magnets imbedded in the material often relieves painful conditions. Treatment of discomfort from strains and arthritis with low frequency pulsating magnetic fields created by tiny portable generators may be as effective as larger ultrasound units.
Stress causes hundreds of diseases; it can be reduced by using magnets day or night. Sleeping on magnetic mattress pads can improve the quality of sleep and eliminate morning stiffness. Nighttime magnetic field therapy has a calming and sleep inducing effect on the brain and body due to stimulating production of the hormone melatonin. Melatonin is anti stressful, anti aging and anti infectious.
Magnetic Therapy may often be used as a first line of treatment for pain and to promote healing. This is not to suggest that there is no place for standard prescription drugs, but that many distressing conditions yield to magnets. If magnets don’t help, it’s important that you visit your doctor.

A guide to medical magnetics - The energy medicine of tomorrow!
Biomagnetics is a natural science dealing with the application of magnetic fields to living things. This handbook is written to provide basic information and understanding of biomagnetics as well as to guide individuals undergoing a medically supervised research project. Information herein has been compiled from many sources in addition to basic clinical observations made by this medical author.
'Biomagnetic Handbook' highlights the values of the rapidly expanding scientific field of electromagnetics in the practice of medicine. This new movement in energy medicine sharpens the tools of physicians and broadens the scope of selfhelp health restoring and health maintaining measures.
