FEEL THE DIFFERENCE as you drift off to sleep, lying in a low-level magnetic field, generated by a varying number of carefully positioned ferrous magnets. The magnets are strategically positioned so that the fields of energy they generate augment each other, as opposed to interfering with each other and rendering their effect negligible. Our magnetic underlays come in all sizes and two strengths, Standard and Mega, and can be complimented with pillow overlays, again in both strengths.
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION of our underlays is produced from three ply Dacron (a type of polyester) with the core being a membrane to which the magnets are attached to ensure they do not move or flip, as facing in opposite directions would nullify their effect. Underlays are full size and attach to the mattress using elastic straps. Available in all sizes – single, double, queen and king – the underlays contain between 86 to 224, 1000 gauss (surface strength), permanent magnets. The underlay can be flipped to make use of the south or the north pole. Mega strength are 1500 gauss, south poled, permanent magnets.
WHAT IS MAGNETIC THERAPY? The human body depends upon millions of tiny electrical currents to work and without them our tissues wouldn’t function properly, our blood wouldn’t carry nutrients properly and our brain could not function at all. All of these functions rely upon electro-magnetic forces to help maintain homeostasis – the natural balance of conditions inside the body so vital to good health. So, when magnets are applied, magnetic waves pass through the body, producing secondary currents and agitating the electrons in any affected area. The iron carried by the blood is attracted to magnetic fields and thus assists in the overall circulation of the blood, even in extremities.
HISTORY AND USE OF MAGNETIC THERAPYdates back to around 150-200BC and at that time Greek physicians used this as a treatment for diarrhea and constipation and in fact pre-dates the Chinese use of acupuncture, whilst even Cleopatra, Queen of ancient Egypt, is said to have worn a magnet on her forehead to “keep her young”. Magnetic Therapists will treat disorders and diseases from Abscess’s to Whooping Cough, and a great many in-between, by suggesting a combination of orthodox medicine and natural therapies.
CAUTION. If you have a pacemaker, are pregnant or epileptic or have any other concern about the use of magnetic products, please consult your Doctor. Further, do not use magnetic products near credit cards or computer equipment as they may be adversely affected.
