Exactly the same can be said for therapeutic magnets, they are after all a
medical device and should be treated with the same reverence as conventional
medical treatments. Thousands of people also self administer magnetic treatments
every day. Magnetic devices are now becoming readily available in pharmacies,
health food shops and even in shopping centres. Unfortunately it is often the
case that the establishment that is selling the magnetic device does not have
staff who are trained in magnetic therapy to give advice and information on
which is the most appropriate device for each individual and often the staff
have virtually no knowledge of the mechanisms by which magnets work.
This leaves the customer at a loss for trained professional advice and they end
up self diagnosing and self medicating and it is no surprise then that the
majority of people who but magnetic devices from these types of outlets go home
with the wrong device. Just as a chemist has a pharmacist on hand to advise the
general public on which OTC medicine is best for them every outlet that sells
magnetic devices should have a trained magnetic practitioner to advise customers
on which treatment is best for them.
In a realistic world it may be some quite considerable time before these retail
outlets conform and train their staff appropriately, so until such a time as
they do we have provided a general guide to using magnets. These are general
guidelines only and do not replace an individualised tailored treatment program,
whoever if you are unable to access a trained therapist you can follow this
general advice for self treatment.
Strength of magnets required
Therapeutic magnets are available in a vast array of strengths, from 500 – 3500
gauss/50-300 m tesla. You may not always require the highest strength magnet,
but there is a minimum requirement for healing purposes. The minimum strength
per magnet for an adult should be 800 gauss/ 80 m tesla. Magnets with gauss/tesla
ratings below this will have difficulty in penetrating through the skin and into
the tissues. The strength of magnet required for each individual is dependent on
the type of ailment/injury, the severity and the length of time the
ailment/injury has been there.
The table below shows approximate ratio of
strength of magnet to ailment.
