Detailed Information about Magnetic Therapy

"Life developed under the influence of the earth's geomagnetic field.  We are surrounded by a sea of magnetism.  The human body, its individual organs and each of the millions of cells making up the organs and the body bathed by this sea are magnetically charged.  Cell regulation, tissue function and life itself are controlled by internal electromagnetic currents.  In disease states, these electromagnetic potentials are altered but fortunately can be favorably influenced by the external application of magnetics."  

"The earliest recorded use of magnets dates to 800 BC. Physicians in ancient Greece, Egypt, India and China described and practiced magnetic therapy and it was mentioned in the writings of Homer, Plato, and Aristotle.  Aesculapius is considered the founder of the healing arts.  All American physicians swear on his name when taking the Hippocratic Oath.  In his book Magnetic Therapy, Abbot George Burke explains that the ancient writings tell us Aesculapius healed mostly through the application of magnetism.    Science has established that magnetic energy passes through all material and affects all living things.  Magnetic fields surround the earth and protect all living things from harmful radiation.  They also influence man's behavior, mental function and physical energy."  

"Modern medicine is beginning to realize the potential value of using magnetic energy in the treatment of physical and mental disorders. In 1989, the FDA and the University of Tulsa jointly sponsored a conference on emerging electro-magnetic medical technology that attracted researchers, physicians and specialist from around the world.  Research for space exploration has produced important information on the human response to magnetic fields and pulsing magnetic frequencies.  NASA discovered that magnetic filed generators installed in manned space ships were essential in maintaining bone density and normal health fro the early astronauts.  They found that specific magnetic fields and frequencies produced certain biological responses.  The Earth's natural pulsing frequency of 7.96 Hz (cycles per second) reduces stress and encourages relaxation and sleep.  Deep restorative sleep is essential in achieving top physical and mental performance."

"Since 1978, the FDA has approved pulsed electromagnetic magnetic field treatment (PMF) for non-union bone fractures.  The treatment device is available by prescription only and is custom made for each patient, therefore, extremely costly.  A set of bar magnets using opposite Poles applied to either side of the fracture provides a similar effect as does the application of PMF treatment using a standard miniature device available off the shelf" 

"Robert J. Grace PhD in conjunction with Prof Irena Cosic, Mark Cohen, & the Bioelectronics group, Monash University, Australia, published the following report in March 1998 (Updated- Dec. 2000).  Biomagnetics For Pain Relief & Promotion Of Healing.  Pulsed magnetic fields have been used therapeutically for almost 70 years.  Only during the last 25 years has serious research and development work resulted in extremely low frequency pulsed electro-magnetic fields (ELF-PEMF).  Many medical devices now use this technology.  Most the these devices are modeled on the original design developed by Elec, a company from Germany.  This device uses power line frequency range of 1Hz to 100 Hz with electro-magnetic field strengths up to 100 Gauss.  These products have proved to be beneficial in bone fracture healing, circulation improvement and alleviation of pain, in many cases."

"Used correctly, Electro-Magnetic Energy Fields are a proven therapeutic modality.  Research and clinical experience has established that the very gentle, EULF, low power pulsed magnetic energy improves the repair of damaged tissue and reduction of pain, improved oxygen transport in the red blood cells, increased nutrient and oxygen uptake at the cellular level.  Greater elasticity of blood vessels, changes in acid/alkaline balance, altering of enzyme and hormone activity, all play an important role in the return to good health."

In his book The Body Electric Dr. Robert Becker observed "that an injury site registers South-positive immediately.  It changes to North-Negative during the healing process, indicating that a North-negative field promotes healing."

William Philpott M. D. explains the pH and calcium factors in his book, Cancer The Magnetic/Oxygen Answer.  Reduced ionized calcium plays a major role as a common denominator in degenerative disease, in addition to acidosis.  Reduced ionized calcium is not necessarily related to a lack of calcium in the diet.  It is more likely related to reactions to environment pollutants that cause an acid response on the body.  He states that calcium and other minerals can only remain in a soluble state in the presence of an alkaline medium.  In acid mediums they become insoluble.

Negative magnetic fields oxygenate and alkalize by aiding the body's defense against bacteria, fungi, and parasites, all of which thrive in an acid medium.  In degenerative diseases, calcium is found deposited around inflamed joints, bruised areas on the hell, and in bones and kidney stones.  Infections occur because they function well in an acidic, oxygen deficient state.

A negative magnetic field combats inflammation and infection and enables the body to resolve troublesome calcium and mineral deposits.

A negative magnetic field is effective in relieving pain due to its oxygenation and alkalinizing action.

A negative magnetic field enhances deep restorative sleep.  The pineal glad produces melatonin in the presence of a negative magnetic field.

Oxygen and water are paramagnetic and can carry a magnetic field to all parts of the body through blood circulation.

Dr. Philpott states that negative magnetic energy is capable of filling indented skin where a tumor has been.  He also reports that no scar tissue will form where a cancerous tumor is neutralized by North Pole magnetic energy.  The same magnetic energy field eliminates scar tissue formation when a cut heals.

Dr. Ken Wianako (Diplomat of the American Board of Chelation Therapy) said "Magnets have been scientifically proven to be able to assist the body regain its self- healing electromagnetic balance naturally.

"Clinical Trials completed in the USA.

Arthritic Pain:  In 1997, Dr. Carlos Valbona of the Baylor College of Medicine, published a study that reported 76% of treated patients using permanent magnets reported a decrease in arthritic joint and muscle pain compared to 19% of placebo patients.

Diabetic Foot Pain: Dr. Michael Weintraub of New York Medical College released a study that showed a significant rate of reduction in foot pain that afflicts millions of diabetics. Using magnetic insoles, nine out of ten diabetics reported a decrease in painful burning sensations, numbness and tingling compared to 22% reporting improvement in the placebo group.

Fibromyalgia:  Magnetic Mattress Pad Use in Patients with Fibromyalgia, A Randomized Double-blind Pilot Study, conducted by Agatha P. Colbert, M.D., Clinical Assistant Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston, MA.  Conclusions were "Sleeping on a magnetic mattress pad provides statistically significant and clinically relevant pain relief and sleep improvement in subjects with Fibromyalgia. No adverse reactions were noted during the 16-week trial period."
