Irsquo;m Talking About The Natural Therapeutic Powers Of BMagnetic Therapyb.brYoursquo;re Probably Wandering What Magnetic Therapy Can Do For You; Well, Let Me Begin By Telling You What It Is.brMagnetic Therapy Can Be Defined As A Safe, Natural And Non-invasive Method Of Applying High Strength Magnetic Fields To The Body For Therapeutic Purposes. It Is A Form Of Complementary Therapy Based Medicine Used To Treat Certain Medical Conditions By Exposure To Permanent Or Pulsed Magnetic Fields. It Is Truly A Time-tested Therapy, Which Has Been Around Since 2000 BC. The Ancient Chinese, Egyptians, Indians And Greeks Were Among The First To Use It And Give Recognition To Itsrsquo; Therapeutic Benefits.brI Feel Itrsquo;s Important To Say That Magnetic Therapy Isnrsquo;t Used As Some Sort Of Mystical Cure For Ailments Or Diseases. Instead, Itrsquo;s Natural Forces Are Used To Kick-start Your Bodies Own Systems In To Action. Next, We Look At How It Does This.brWhen High Strength Magnets Are Placed Directly Above The Site Of Injury Or Near A Major Artery, They Generate A Localised Magnetic Field That Is Powerful Enough To Penetrate Right Through The Skin And Bones, Down To The Cells.brThis Magnetic Field Also Triggers A Chemical Response, Which Causes The Iron Content In Your Blood To Become Responsive To It. This Reaction Results In Improved Blood Circulation. One Of The Functions Of Blood, Is To Transport Oxygen And Nutrients From The Heart To The Cells, Tissues And Vital Organs In The Body. BrConsequently, As The Blood Circulation System Begins To Improve, The Knock On Effect Is That More Oxygen And Nutrients Are Transported Directly To Where Itrsquo;s Needed, I.e., To The Damaged Cells And Soft Tissues At The Site Of Pain Or Injury.brOn Receiving The Required Fresh Supply Of Blood, Oxygen And Nutrients, The Bodies Own Healing Processes Can Begin To Work On Repairing The Damage To The Cells And Soft Tissues At An Accelerated Rate. Whilst The Bodies Essential Repair Works Get Under Way, The Brain Sends Out Signals To Release The Internal Painkillers I.e. The Endorphins That Get On With The Job Of Relieving The Pain. BrAs Well As Stimulating The Bodies Healing Processes, The Magnetic Field Also Relieves Pain, By Tackling Any Inflammation Present. It Does This By Drawing Out Excess Fluid And Toxins From The Surrounding Tissues And Then Expelling Them On Route Via The Liver And Kidneys. Once The Excess Fluid And Toxins Are Removed, The Swelling Will Begin To Reduce. BrNow, You Recall That Earlier, I Mentioned About Magnetic Therapy Lsquo;promoting Deep Restorative Sleeprsquo;, Well Stay Tuned, Because Wersquo;re Going To Get Into That Next.briubMagnetic Therapy In Your SleepbuibrHerersquo;s A Fact For You, BrScientific Research Conducted By A Key Specialist In The Area Of Magnetic Therapy, Namely, IDr. W.H. Philpott MD Of Oklahomai Has Shown That Effects Of Magnets Are At Their Most Powerful At Night, And Herersquo;s Why. Every Living Thing On This Earth Is Dependent On Magnetic Energy. In Fact, The Earth Itself Is A Huge Magnet, And As Such Produces Natural Negative Magnetic Energy Force.brDuring The Day, We Are Exposed To The Positive Magnetic Force From The Sun And Negative Magnetic Force At Night From The Earth.brThe Following Explains The Effects That Each Type Of Energy Has On The Human Body. BrbiEffects Of Magnetic EnergyibbrPositive Magnetic Energy From The Sun UlliPromotes Deep And Restorative SleepliululliSupports The Healing ProcessliululliDecreases Inflammation And Relieves PainliululliIncreases Cellular OxygenliulNegative Magnetic Energy From The Earth UlliStimulates WakefulnessliululliInhibits The Healing Process LiululliCan Increase Inflammation And Aggravate Pain LiululliDecreases Cellular Oxygen LiulAccording To Dr. W.H. Philpottrsquo;s Theory On The Effects Of Magnetic Energy, The Pineal Gland, Located In The Centre Of The Head, Acts As A Sort Of Control Centre For The Immune System, Hormones, And Enzymes In Our Bodies. This Gland Actually Contains Magnetic Crystals, And Is Acutely Sensitive To The Effects Of Magnetic Energy. BrThe Pineal Gland Secretes The Sleep Hormone Melatonin Throughout The Night, When The Earthrsquo;s Negative Magnetic Force Is Dominant. The Body Requires High Levels Of Melatonin To Enable A Good Nightrsquo;s Sleep. BrSignificant Advances In Magnet Technology Have Enabled Scientists To Duplicate The Earths Negative Energy And Harness It In Form Of High Strength Magnets. BrTherefore, When You Use Magnets To Surround Yourself In A Magnetic Field At Night, The Effects Are Intensified For Two Reasons, 1) The Earthrsquo;s Negative Magnetic Energy Is At Itrsquo;s Most Powerful And 2) The Body Is In Itsrsquo; Resting And Healing Phase. As Such, You Are Able To Benefit From: UlliA Deep Restorative Sleep That Will Leave You Feeling Energised And Refreshed When You AwakeliululliImproved Circulation That Will Feed Your Cells With Those Vital Nutrients And Oxygen To Enable Faster HealingliululliReduced If Not Eradicated Aches, Pains And InflammationliululliThe Effects Of The Bodies Resting Stage, Which Allows The Body To Heal Itself More Efficiently At Night.liulHopefully By Now, You Can Begin To See How Using Magnetic Therapy Can Help You Break, The Vicious More Pain Less Sleep Cycle. BrIn Addition, It May Interest You To Know That There Are Self-help Magnetic Products Readily Available That Are Specifically Designed, To Provide This Nighttime Therapy. They Are Magnetic Bed Pads Or Magnetic Mattress Covers. These Products Have A Series Of High Strength Magnets Sewn Inside Them. In Addition, They Have Been Clinically Proven To Be A Safe And Effective Form Of Natural Pain Relief.brSo, As I Bring This Article To An End I Just Want To Say, Donrsquo;t Let Back Pain Continue Rob You Of The Deep Restorative Sleep That Your Body So Desperately Needs. Give Magnetic Therapy A Try, Who Knows, It Could Work For You.brDonna Gray BrbDISCLAIMERb UlliThe Information In This Article Is Intended For Educational Purposes Only.
