Magnetic Bracelet For RSI? How Effective Is It?
Posted on Jun 17, 2010 | Comments 0
A person who has Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) can find it difficult to readjust to life after their diagnosis. One of the popular alternative therapies for RSI management is use of magnetic forces, which offer non drug pain relief options and assists the body in its natural healing processes.
Since it does not interfere with other methods of healing, magnetic bracelets can be used in addition to or in conjunction with other therapies.
The theory is that the strategic placements of magnets are able to increase the blood flow to a particular part of the body; by as much as 300% according to some claims. This is supposed to help in enriching the area with oxygen and reducing inflammation.
This black and copper magnetic bracelet on Amazon for instance is an example of this product which the manufacturers claim may help to alleviate a range of problems from Carpal Tunnel, Shoulder Pain, Numbness in arms & fingers, Diabetes, Tendonitis, Tennis Elbow, Bursitis, Wrist pain, Ganglion cyst and Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis. Since the product can be bought along with a matching necklace, many find it to be a stylish accessory as well.
The efficacy of this product however is something that may be a moot point. The fact is that many people do benefit from this and similar products, while others seem to derive little or no benefit.
