1. yes
2. yea
3. Umm you better make sure you're not allergic to it first....My sister got one for swelling, and my aunt got one for arthritis..and they both broke out in a rash... It wasn't pretty..and it also turned the spot where that had it green...
4. NO NOT AT ALL. THESE R JUST HUMOURS
5. there is some indication that some ppl get some relief from them. mostly, if you think it will work, it does
6. I've never tried them myself, but I have two family members who both swear by them.
7. Like acupuncture, there is difficulty in finding the scientific relationship between magnetics and pain relief. However, the majority of people (that I know) wear the magnetic bracelets because the swear it makes a difference. Of course, there are many people who swear by placebos. Either way, science or delusion, use it if you find relief. Still plenty for us to research.
8. yes, i've tried and it does, but not bad pain, just minor aches. pain, and every other feeling we feel is just an electric signal, so, a magnetic bracelet can, theoretically attract those signals and literally suck the pain right out of you.
9. No The only relief will be from the placebo affect that they offer. Meaning that you think that they are doing something but in reality they are just magnets. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjZoDtJRJks
10. Don't know about magnetic, but I have tried a copper bracelet and it worked with a sore arm, then when I tried it again just recently, nothing happened, the pain didn't go away, so I think that it's just in your mind, if you think it helps then it does, I can't see how a piece of metal can take away any serious pain, just maybe mask it.
11. Yes they do, so do the necklaces, anything magnetic works as long the magnet is strong enough. Not recommended for people with pacemakers, migraine sufferers or high blood pressure. Does work on normal stress related headaches.
12. They work just as good an non-magnetic bracelets. If you believe in something strong enough you can get a placebo effect and convince yourself your pain is gone. Aside from that they do nothing.
13. i heard that it absorbed all the impurities from your body
14. YES they do work
15. Yes, my uncle says so!
16. No, of course they don't.
17. Yes they do work!
18. Magnets do not work for ANYTHING. They're just placebos for the incredibly gullible. Magnets have no effect on the body at all.
19. i would say yes -anything is worth a try
