The Benefits of Bio-Magnetic Therapy
June 11, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Although bio-magnetic therapy is not officially approved as a healing method or practice, too many users of this therapy method gain significant joint pain relieving benefits for it to be dismissed.
The fact that iron, a magnetic metal contained in haemoglobin, making up around 4% of human blood content is a clear indication that should areas of the body be exposed to magnets there will be an effect on that area. In simple terms magnets placed around a damaged joint will attract more blood to that area, thereby increasing the oxygen and nutrient delivery to damaged cells, increasing the rate of the healing process. It is also believed that because magnetic fields temporarily alter the molecular structure of the blood in the area where they are worn, it flows more easily into cartilage and bone, again increasing the rate of healing.

David, 24 found out that his father has lupus. In his curiosity to know whether it could happen to him as well, he consulted as many doctors he knew.
One more question that arises in one’s mind is that is lupus heredity, what are its risk factors, what are its types, its signs and symptoms. What is the relation between lupus and alopecia? Why is dialysis performed in some patients with lupus? What is Raynaud’s phenomenon? What are the various criteria for lupus diagnosis? These and many more such questions are haunting several people around the globe.
