Read our Magnetic Therapy FAQ section to better understand how magnets and magnetic therapy work.
Q. Are these Products made in Australia?
A. Magnetic Attraction designs and manuactures ALL their Magnetic Products in Belgrave South, Victoria.
Each Product is made fromt the highest qualtiy materials and come with a 100% Money Back Guarantee if you are not completely satisfied after wearing the products for 80 days.
Q. What type of magnets do you use in your products?
A. Magnetic Attraction only uses High powered Neodymium (Rare Earth) magnets. These magnets are the strongest magnets used for Magnetic therapy purposes. We only use Grade 38 magnets. Our magnet products are all made with the magnet facing NORTH. Rare Earth magnets are permanent and will not lose their strength.
Q. What is NORTH POLE UNIPOLAR Therapy and How does it work?
A. The opposite poles of magnets attract and the same poles repel. Medical Research has found that, placing the North Pole of a magnet on any living tissue, humans and animals alike, attracts the positive electrolytes in your body.
The iron molecule which is called hemoglobin, works in the body by delivering oxygen into the cell and picking up waste. This natural process is accelerated by placing the NORTH POLE of the magnet (negative field) onto the skin.
Increasing oxygen promotes natural healing and the hemoglobin serves as a garbage truck and removes waste, thus decreasing edema and inflammation/swelling. An oxygenated body promotes a healthy brain function and aids in increasing vitality, which then decreases pain naturally. When you are in pain, your body stresses thereby increasing the acidity, and a body which is high in acidity is more prone to disease and pain.
As the Pineal gland is exposed to a North Pole magnetic environment, adding mored oxygen, results in an increase in growth hormone, malatonin, production and a deeper restorative sleep, anti-aging and stress reduction.
Q. Will Magnetic Therapy work for me?
A. According to recent scientific studies 75 - 95% (depending on the condition) benefit from magnetic therapy. It is estimated that over 120 million people worldwide use magnetic therapy successfully. It is reported that Cleopatra wore a loadstone on her forehead and that the Egyptians spent time in magnetic rock caves as part of a healing process.
Q. How long should I use a Magnetic Product?
A. Listen to your body and decide according to your personal results. Some people use magnetic therapy until the symptoms disappear, and re-apply if symptoms return. Other people use magnetic products most of the time for general health and well-being. Increasing the blood flow, increasing oxygen in the body, which assists in flushing toxins out of the system. Generally, magnetic therapy is used short term to recover from injury and enhance the healing process. For chronic conditions and to promote wellness, vitality and balance, it is recommended that the magnetic product(s) be used most of the time.
Q. How quickly can I expect Magnetic Therapy to work?
A. Many of our clients experience pain relief in minutes. Others, depending on the nature of their injury, have found a slower effect taking up to a week. Some people report dramatic pain relief in a matter of a few hours. A more subtle relief is experienced by some. If you are unsure whether your magnet is working for you, remove it and spend a few days without it. Take note of the symptoms and then re-apply the magnetic field to your body. This is the best indicator as to whether the magnets are assisting you to relieve your condition.
Q. Is Magnetic Therapy safe?
A. A major study done by the World Health Organisation on the effects of magnetic fields was published in 1987. Their findings were that the magnetic field was safe. It is said that you can never over expose yourself to the North (alkaline) field of the magnet. All further studies have confirmed that magnetic therapy is a very safe form of natural drug free pain and discomfort management.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Persons who are fitted with pacemakers, defibrillators, implanted insulin pumps or other electro-medical devices should not use magnetic products. Magnets should always be kept at least 4-20 inches (10cm -50cm) away from computer hard drives. Also do not store magnets near any products with a battery, ie mobile phones OR your credit cards.
PREGNANCY: Due to the fact that no research has been done on the effect of magnetic products during pregnancy, we advise women not to use magnetic therapy until after the birth.
Always check with your health professional if ever in doubt.
Q. Are there any side effects from using Magnetic Therapy?
A. All scientific studies that have been performed have shown no adverse side effects. There have been a very small percentage of users that have experienced very mild temporary symptoms such as light-headedness, a tingling sensation, an increased feeling of warmth and also increased thirst.
There have been rare instances where, as part of the healing process, a particular condition may feel worse prior to starting to improve. This is also experienced with many other healing modalities.
It should be noted that these sensations are temporary and can be eliminated by using the magnetic product for shorter intervals of time, until the body becomes accustomed to the magnetic field.
Q. How do I know which magnetic product to choose for my particular condition?
A. It is recommended that you place the magnet on the area that is to be treated. Example, if you have sleep problems or all over aches and pains, use the magnetic mattress pad or underlay. For lower back discomfort, stiff neck, shoulders, hips, menstrual discomfort, heartburn etc use the magnetic clip. For sore tired feet, heel spur, plantar fasciitis, diabetic neuropathy or aching toes and feet, use either the leather or rubber magnetic shoe insoles.
For discomfort in the ankle, knee, wrist, elbow etc, use the body strap with the removeable magnets.
Magnetic jewellery can also be worn during the day, although we recommend that if wearing magnetic jewellery that you also use a North facing Unipolar magnet to balance the energy, as the magnetic jewellery has both south (acidic) and north (alkaline) polarities.
Q. What is magnetised water and how does it help me?
A. Placing the water on a magnetic field changes the ionisation of the water. The formation of the molecules are changed so that they all line up, making the water very soft and easily absorbed.
Magnetic water may help the body to hydrate up to 3 times more effectively than normal drinking water. It has been reported that people have experienced increased energy and vitality, less sypmtoms of colds and flue, hair and skin improvement, and better elimination of waste.
The north (alkaline) polarised water actually cleanses your body from the inside. (see magnetic water block)
Q. How long will magnets retain their power?
A. Magnetic Attraction only use powerful Rare Earth Magnets (Neodymium). These magnets are a PERMANENT magnet, which will ALWAYS retain their magnetic energy.
