The Only Way to Describe The Effects of Clinical Magnetic Therapy – Miraculous

Historically it is reported that magnets have been around for an extremely long time. Magnets were first documented around 2500-3000 years BC. Their origins are first noted in Asia Minor in a vast land called Magnesia. The earth there was enriched with iron oxide which attracted metals to it. The locals named it Magnetite.

A different tale of a shepherd boy tending his flock on Mount Ida, 2500 years BC ago, he found it extremely difficult to walk up the mountainside. The boy’s feet were heavy and stuck to the rock. The sandals he wore were held together with metal rivets, the boys name was Magnes.

It was discovered that the shepherd boy’s mountain contained a mineral with magnetic properties named Lodestone. Through out the ages its name has changed to Magnes after the boy who revealed its magnetic properties and now more commonly know as magnet.

The ancient Egyptian heroin Cleopatra could possibly be the first famous person to use the benefits of magnets. A Lodestone was used in her bed to refresh her skin and protect her looks. The knowledge of these benefits were shared with the Greeks and philosophers Plato and Aristotle wrote if its medicinal use since 2500 BC.

Following on from the Greeks, Chinese medicine then began to use magnets in 2000 BC along with their other treatments, reflexology and acupuncture. In fact, its popularity in the east remains today and is widely used for many different ailments.

3,500 years after they were first discovered, magnets have gained popularity in Europe and the USA. In the 15th century a Swiss physician Paracelsus recognised the therapeutic powers of magnets. He wrote medical papers on the influence of magnets on the inflammatory processes within the body.

In the 16th century an English doctor Dr William Gilbert made a scientific study of electricity and magnetism. He published one of the first books about magnetic therapy called “De Magnet”. Dr Gilbert was also Queens Elizabeth I personal physician and it is said that she used magnets under his direction.

In depth studies into the healing benefits of magnetic therapy were led by Michael Faraday in the 18th century. He later became known as the originator of biomagnetics. Even today his work provides a support structure to modern treatments using magnets. Leaders in the fields of Hypnotism and Homeopathy, Dr Mesmer and Dr Hahnemann also made extensive contributions to his studies.

More up to date ground breakers include Dr Kreft from Germany who in 1905 examined how magnets would effect conditions such as neuralgia, sciatica and rheumatism. Dr Criles looked into the impact of using magnetic therapy on cancer in 1926 and a decade later saw Albert Davis performing stringent tests on the north and south polarity of magnets.

The amount of research done into magnetic treatments over the last fifteen years has been hugely increased. More than 57 studies have been completed in America on the topic of disease and magnets. Here are a handful of the most up to date studies;

1990 – University of Hawaii recorded the effects of magnetic therapy on the condition osteoarthritis.
