Is magnetic therapy safe?
For most people, magnetic therapy is safe when used properly. However, people with certain medical conditions, such as pacemakers, defibrillators, or insulin pumps, should not use magnetic therapy, as the magnets may interfere with the functioning of these devices.
How does magnetic therapy work?
There are different theories on how magnetic therapy works, but the most commonly accepted one is that the magnets stimulate blood flow and increase oxygenation in the affected area, which can help reduce inflammation and relieve pain.
Can magnetic therapy be used as a replacement for conventional medical treatment?
No, magnetic therapy should not be used as a replacement for conventional medical treatment. It may be used as a complementary therapy alongside other treatments recommended by a healthcare professional. Always consult with your doctor before starting any new treatment.
