HEALTH TOPICS

Welcome to Health Topics. In this section we will cover how various specific health topics or conditions can be treated with magnetic fields. This information is meant as an educational overview of how magnetic therapies may help these conditions.

We will present

· Some background descriptive information on the health topic

· What the goals of magnetic therapy are

· Some basic ideas of how it might be treated conventionally

· Some alternative non-conventional approaches to treatment

· How magnetic fields affect the condition

· Nutritional support to augment the magnetic therapy

· Some recommended magnetic devices

· Suggested additional informational resources

· General and magnetically specific references.

The suggestions in this section should only be considered in the light of the science of magnetics and the general considerations for applying magnetic fields in therapy. This information is not meant to be all inclusive or comprehensive for the treatment of the conditions discussed.

As always, we must reinforce that this material is intended to inform and not direct treatment of your condition. Since each individual’s particular condition and circumstances are unique, advice on diagnosis and treatment should be sought from the appropriate health practitioner for your unique situation. You should never treat a condition that has not been properly evaluated before applying magnetic therapy on your own.

Before thinking about using magnetic fields for your particular health issue/s, as some point you will want to review the "Treatment Basics" section. It includes a lot of basic application information. If you already own a bioelectromagnetic system, including permanent or static magnets, you may want to read it as well, to be sure you're maximizing the value of your magnetic treatments. In addition, if you want even more confidence, you may want to consider an individual consultation, whether it includes magnetics or not.

New health topics will be added monthly.

The information provided here is intended for educational purposes only. It does not take the place of proper diagnosis and/or treatment advice from a licensed healthcare practitioner. Because magnetic fields can have strong effects on the body, both desirable and rarely, undesirable, getting proper advice on the underlying health and treatment options is recommended before and after using magnetic field therapies (MFTs).

Contraindications

Despite magnet therapy’s generally recognized safety, account must be taken of some possible actions which should be considered in using this therapy. While few of these are serious, they must be anticipated and patients alerted to their potential.
