The good thing about a magnetic clasp bracelet is that you put it on and it stays on. Since you're most likely aiming to treat some muscle, joint and tendon problems in your arms and wrists, it's only fair that you look for one bracelet that fits right and stays secure. There are several varieties available today at designated shops and jewelers. Here's how to find the right piece for you.
The Magnetic Clasp
The clasp of the bracelet itself is magnetic and can give anywhere from 2,000 to 5,000 gauss as needed by the wearer. You may also choose to increase the strength of the magnetic field by adding more magnets to the design or choosing a larger clasp. The clasps usually are equipped with safety snap to make sure that your jewelry stays on as needed without any risk of accidental snapping or losing. The mechanism is very convenient since you can easily take off the bracelet if you're taking a shower or going for a swim although everything usually is waterproof.
There are different types of magnetic clasps available depending on the style and design you need. Lobster and spring clasps are very traditional which has an adjustable hooking device that snaps on a loop or ring at the opposite end of the bracelet. These are harder to close however since fixing the lobster or spring requires steady small fingers with semi-grown nails. Newer models use a quick and easy latch-on mechanism wherein a rigged portion of one end of the bracelet perfectly fits and locks onto the miniature bars uniquely set at the opposite end. These are all magnetized as well so you get to double the security as the two opposite ends attract to each other.
Can the Clasps Heal?
Magnetic therapy or the use of magnetic bracelets and other jewelry for the purpose of pain and inflammation relief has been quite popular in recent years. First and foremost, magnetic clasps are not intended to medically treat individuals with chronic problems in their muscles and joints. The magnetic clasp bracelets specifically are intended to help hold the ends of the jewelry in addition to the clasp mechanism for added security. Take note that strengths of the magnetic clasps are kept only at minimal or regular intensities so that they merely attract to each other. The size of the clasps is also relatively small to produce any significant effects on affected areas.
The Real Healing Magnets
It would be a better idea to introduce solid magnetic materials that have higher strengths and can cover a broader area if you expect results. Gold, silver, copper, stainless steel and titanium are the usual metals that are magnetized with magnetic fields ranging as much as 20,000 to 30,000 gauss. Hematite beads are also said to have positive magnetic effects. You will see a variety of designs featuring these metals together with magnetic clasps. Basically, the magnetic clasp is very affordable and you can get these for as low as $4.50 depending on the design and material.
Too Much Magnet
There are no known side effects on applying very high amounts of magnetic force to your body. Just be sure that you keep other sensitive items like watches and compasses away. People with metal pins and plates surgically placed inside their bodies should consult their doctor first before application. A magnetic clasp bracelet is intended to add security to the piece so that it stays in place for as long as you expect it to. You may also find cheap materials like plastic, wooden and glass beads, silicone and other plastics made into bracelets but still using magnetic clasps to make them very easy and secure to wear.

Magnetic Bracelet - How Magnetic Therapy Can Reduce Your Pain By Up To 40 Per Cent
LIZ Roberts' Pershore garden is positively blooming this year.
The keen gardener has been out and about planting and pruning to her heart's content.
But while this may sound like the norm for any keen horticulturalist, for Liz it is quite an achievement.
For the past several years, the 64-year-old has had to relinquish her love of the garden as she suffers from fibromyalgia - a severe form of arthritis.
It causes her tremendous pain all over her body, and everyday tasks - including gardening - have become very difficult.
But four months ago, all that changed when Liz, from Sheldon Close, discovered a treatment that she claims has reduced the pain she suffers by up to 40 per cent - magnetic therapy.
According to the Magnetic Therapy Council, therapeutic strong static magnets can help with the scores of medical conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis, spondylosis, fibromyalgia, back pain, sciatica, diabetes, insomnia, migraine, MS, stroke, high blood pressure, poor circulation and many more.
Science has discovered that a magnetic field over and around the point of pain increases blood flow in the effected area. This increased blood flow carries with it greater quantities of oxygen, vital nutrients and especially endorphins which relieve and soon remove and alleviate the pain.
Magnetic therapy does not aim to replace existing methods of treatment but complement and assist in the reduction of painful symptoms and help speed up the healing process.
After hearing about the treatment on the radio, Liz now uses a magnetic mattress cover and pillow pad, as well as insoles in her shoes, a back belt and a water wand - which magnetises drinks.
"I used to ache all over," Liz said.
"Every fibre of my being hurt and it restricted me from doing the things I love the most, like gardening.
"I was even having difficulty sleeping.
"But I can honestly say that using the magnets has been marvellous.
"Even after just two weeks, after using them 24 hours a day, I could feel the difference."
Liz says that her pain has been reduced by up to 30 or 40 per cent.
She added: "When you feel you have suffered for a long time and you suddenly have freedom from it it is fantastic - and of course, getting back out in the garden and being able to use my secateurs has been great.
"It has completely changed the quality of my life."
Debbie Shimadry, a pain nurse specialist at World of Magnets, said about 60 pert cent of magnetic therapy users are able to significantly reduce the amount of painkilling pills they have to take, while about 35 per cent no longer need any painkillers at all.
"The treatment does not act like painkillers where the pain is blocked for around four to six hours and then returns," she added.
"Magnets act on the cause of the pain reducing the swelling and increasing the body's own pain killers endorphins.
"Magnets take a little bit of time to have an effect - usually around two to four weeks - but some people have benefits within a few day.
"On the other side, some people take around eight to 12 weeks to really notice a significant reduction.
"And now, the NHS has said that for the very first time it will allow magnetic therapy treatment devices to be prescribed by GPs for the treatment of chronic leg ulcers."
Debbie added that even though there are no harmful effects of magnetic therapy, anyone thinking of using it should always seek trained professional advice about the type of magnets, the placement and the strength before using them.
There is a register of trained and qualified magnetic practitioners available from the Magnetic Therapy Council (MTC) - a non profit organisation, who offers advice, information and education on all aspects of magnetic therapy.
Facts...
* 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.
* Cleopatra was probably the first celebrity to use magnets. It is documented that she slept on a Lodestone to keep her skin youthful. The therapeutic knowledge was passed to the Greeks who have been using magnets for healing since 2500 BC. Aristotle and Plato talked of the benefits of Lodestones in their work.
* Michael Faraday, also known as the founder of Biomagnetics made extensive discoveries in magnetic healing during the 18th century. His work is still used as a framework for modern day magnetic treatments.
* 20th Century pioneers include Dr Kreft a German doctor who in 1905 studied the healing effects of magnets on rheumatic disease, sciatica and neuralgia.
* Magnetic therapy is gaining in popularity worldwide with many celebrity devotees including Cherie Blair, the Queen, Prince William, Bill Clinton and Anthony Hopkins.

Magnetic Therapy for Pain Relief
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.
Another story is told of a young boy, who lived 2500 years BC, called Magnes — a shepherd on Mount Ida. One day he was tending his sheep whilst wearing sandals which contained iron in the sole. He found it hard to walk up the mountain as his feet felt heavy and stuck to the rock face. Mount Ida was found to contain a rock called Lodestone, which is the first known magnetic mineral. It is reported that Lodestone was named Magnes after the boy who discovered it, and it later came to be known as magnet.
Cleopatra was probably the first celebrity to use magnets. It is documented that she slept on a Lodestone to keep her skin youthful. The therapeutic knowledge was passed to the Greeks who have been using magnets for healing since 2500 BC Aristotle and Plato talked of the benefits of Lodestones in their work.
Magnets have been used in Chinese medicine from around 2000 BC in-conjunction with reflexology and acupuncture. It is still used today as a first line treatment for many common complaints.
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.
Michael Faraday, also known as the founder of Biomagnetics made extensive discoveries in magnetic healing during the 18th century. His work is still used as a framework for modern day magnetic treatments. Dr Mesmer (the father of hypnotism) and Dr Samuel Hahnemann (the father of homoeopathy) also contributed to his remarkable work.
20th century pioneers include Dr Kreft a German doctor who in 1905 studied the healing effects of magnets on rheumatic disease, sciatica and neuralgia. 1926 revealed Dr Criles work on the impact of magnets on cancer cells and this was followed 10 years later in 1936 with Albert Davis carrying out tests on the effects of the north and south poles of a magnet.
However the last 15 years has shown a prolific increase in medical research into magnetic therapy. There have been over 57 studies in the USA into incurable diseases and magnetics. Some of the most recent are:
1990 – University if Hawaii tested magnetic fields on patients with osteoarthritis.
1992- Stiller et al a randomised double blind trial of wound healing in venous leg wounds.
1999- New York Medical College tested magnetic insoles on diabetic patients.
2001- University of Virginia tested magnetic mattress covers on patients with Fibromyalgia.
2004- University of Exeter and Plymouth tested magnetic bracelets on patients with osteoarthritis
Magnetic therapy is gaining in popularity worldwide with many celebrity devotees including: Cherie Blair, Bill Clinton, Anthony Hopkins, Prince William, Queen Elizabeth II, Shirley MaClaine, Venus Williams, Michael Jordan, Andre Agassi, Jack Niklaus and many more.
Magnetic devices are now registered as prescribable medical devices in 54 countries worldwide With new research being completed each year and doctors at last acknowledging that it is not “witch doctory” we shall hopefully see, with in the next few years, magnetic devices being prescribed on the NHS in-conjunction with conventional pain killing drugs.

Choosing A Magnetic Bracelet For Arthritis - Can A Magnetic Bracelet For Arthritis Relieve Your Pain
Arthritis is a disease which affects numerous people. Arthritis is also a painful disease. Because of the pain and the amount of people arthritis afflicts; doctors and scientists are working diligently to create arthritis pain treatments and cures. Thanks to this ongoing research, there are numerous treatments given in order to aid in the relief of arthritis pain
A very simple arthritis pain management device is an arthritis bracelet. This form of arthritis pain treatment is quickly growing in the United States. Even though there has been an explosive growth in the use of arthritis bracelets, surprisingly a lot of arthritis sufferers don’t know about them.
What you should know about arthritis bracelets:
One particular thing you should know about arthritis bracelets, is there are different types. However, the scope of this article is to concentrate solely on the magnetic arthritis bracelet.
The credibility of the effectiveness of magnetic bracelets has long been supported by folk medicine and holistic healers. In recent years Western medicine has begun to accept more and more natural healing methods. Because of this trend, a growing number of people are giving non-traditional Western medical methods a try. Magnetic bracelets are no exception. Magnetic bracelets are growing in popularity and use among people in the United States.
There has been some recent authentic research which concludes magnetic bracelets can be used as an effective arthritis pain treatment method. This research was conducted by a team of British researchers. They wanted to test whether magnetic bracelets were effective in treating arthritis pain, or if they were useless. They did find at the end of the twelve week study, that the magnetic bracelets helped to reduce the pain of the wearers as opposed to those who were given a “dummy” bracelet.
There is one precaution to the study, weak magnetic bracelets had little to no effect on their wearers, just as the “dummy” bracelets did. Be sure to have a strong magnetic bracelet. Make sure the field is between 170 and 200 mTesla.
How does a magnetic bracelet work?
An area which is afflicted with pain, generally speaking, is constantly lacking in blood circulation. Because of the lack of circulation, there is also a deficiency in oxygen. The afflicted area can be highly acidic and the polarity would be considered positive. A negative, otherwise known as a Unipole magnet helps these conditions. The magnet helps to increase circulation. In turn, this increases the amount of oxygen brought to the afflicted area, and decreases inflammation.
The negative energy field produced by the magnet also counteracts the positive field associated with the painful condition. Anyone, who is pregnant, or wearing a pacemaker, electronic implants or using electric blankets/heating pads should not use magnetic products. You should always consult a physician before undertaking any kind of treatment for arthritis.
Where you can find a magnetic arthritis bracelet:
There are many different locations where you can go to find this bracelet and other related forms of arthritis therapy. In fact, you can find a good quality and inexpensive magnetic arthritis bracelet on the internet. You would not even have to leave your home to buy it.
Although there are many other forms of treatment that are considered as being beneficial in regards to the relieving of arthritis pain, the magnetic bracelet can easily be considered as one of the best and most economical options of all.

Magnetic Bracelets For Arthritis - How Do They Work?
One method that has been effective in relieving arthritis pain is the use of magnetic bracelets. These bracelets are designed to stimulate blood flow and increase oxygen levels in affected areas to lessen inflammation.
Basically, arthritis prevents blood to flow freely into the affected regions of the human body, thus hindering circulation and ultimately reducing the quantity of oxygen around the afflicted parts.
Magnetic bracelets, which are negative magnets, improve blood circulation in the affected regions which have a positive polarity. Consequently, the improved circulation allows more oxygen to enter the afflicted areas and effectively reduces the inflammation. The end result is that the pain associated with arthritis is significantly reduced.
Magnetic bracelets and magnetic therapy have been around for a number of centuries, but only recently acknowledged by western medicine as an effective pain reduction technique.
British researchers recently examined the effects of magnetic bracelets of varying magnetic fields - some were given strong bracelets, others wore weak bracelets, while another group were given "dummy" or placebo bracelets without any magnetic field. After a 12-week period, it was revealed that the strong magnetic group experienced a significant reduction in arthritis pain, whereas the weak and dummy group had little to no pain relief. These results indicate that the use of magnetic bracelets can indeed alleviate pain for arthritic patients, provided that the bracelet has a strong magnetic field (170-200 Tesla).
Regardless of the lack of definite evidence, magnetic bracelets and magnetic therapy have become immensely popular in the USA as well as in several other western countries such as Britain and Australia. In 1999, global sales of magnetic bracelets reached an astounding $5M. This is a quite reasonable figure, as there are over a million arthritis patients in the United Kingdom alone. In recent years, there has also been a considerable rise in the use of alternative non-western techniques in the treatment of pain and other conditions.
If you decide to use magnetic bracelets, however, it is always recommended that you consult a doctor first before proceeding. It is imperative that you do not stop taking your current medications and other arthritis treatments and replacing them completely with magnetic therapy, unless your doctor recommends this course of action. Magnetic bracelets must also be avoided at all cost if you are pregnant, wearing a pacemaker or electronic implants, or currently using heating pads or electric blankets.
It should be noted that there are a diverse range of treatment options for dealing with arthritis pain, and not one should be eliminated entirely. Some therapies may continue to be effective in symptom reduction even as your magnetic bracelet alleviates your pain.
A primary advantage of using magnetic bracelets is the fact that they come in affordable prices. Moreover, they are non-intrusive and can cause hardly any side effects as do other chemical techniques. There is absolutely nothing to lose in trying this method of arthritis treatment. Needless to say, it is well worth your $30 to $100 to try one bracelet.
Magnetic bracelets still continue to gain popularity, as more and more users swear to their effectiveness. In addition, clinical studies provide evidence that magnetic therapy does work in treating arthritis pain. So, if you've been suffering from arthritis pain for the longest time, magnetic bracelets may be the answer you've been looking for.
