"...The most effective magnet design is the one using the concentric circles of alternating polarity. The concentric design allows for the maximal penetration to, and action on, the capillaries bringing blood to muscle tissue in almost any direction the capillary travels."
"...When tested with a gaussmeter placed a quarter of an inch away, the magnetic "reach" from the Bioflex concentric circle medical magent is approximately double that of a traditional checkerboard pattern, and much greater than the standard bar-type magnet."

"...New York Yankees pitching star Hideki Irabu is the latest entry in the parade of big name athletes who swear by magnetic therapy to ease their pain."
"...The magnetic field creates a slight electrical current. This current stimulates the nervous systems, triggering a blockage of pain sensations." "...The magnetic field attracts and repels charged particles in the blood, creating movement and heat."
Dr. Julian Whitaker's Health & Healing
"...A friend bought her a thin, pliable magnet and suggested she wear it over her lower back, where the pain was most acute. By the next day her pain had dramatically decreased, and within a week she was back to her daily walks."
"...Other research has demonstrated positive findings in relieving pain from whiplash and head injuries, menstrual pain, knee inflammation and carpal tunnel syndrome."
Healthy & Natural Journal
"... Not long ago, magnets were primarily used to hang kids' artwork and shopping lists on
refrigerator doors. Then the alternative health movement took off, reviving interest in the
centuries-old practice of using therapeutic permanent magnets for pain relief. Within a few
years, thousands of magnet enthusiasts went public with stories of their own healing
experiences. "
Natural Health Magazine
"... New Evidence is giving credence to this curious form of pain relief, and
may be silencing long-time critics in the process."
Tucson Citizen-Tempo
"...Using a magnet to treat pain may not be as wacky an idea as it sounds. In a study of 50 patients, application of a small magnet to painful muscles and joints was far more effective than application of an identical but non-magnatized device."
First for Women Magazine
