Magnet Therapy: What is the Attraction?

People have been interested in the potential curative properties of magnets since ancient times. To this day, some people still wear strong magnetic bracelets in an effort to remedy many conditions, including general pains, dental pains, migraines, fatigue, insomnia, and more. But is this for real?

It is unclear just how much magnets help to relieve pain or other conditions. Some people claim that the magnetism helps circulate your blood, since red blood cells contain iron; this claim is meritless, though, since the iron in your blood is not in a magnetic state. However, it is true that magnetic fields exist in your body, particularly in your heart.

The final word is that, while there has been some evidence in favor of magnet therapy, there is nothing substantial enough to go off of. If you need help with your dental pain, talk to our Lynnwood dentistry clinic for ways to help manage it.
