OBESITY

There are therapists who claim they can treat obesity with magnet therapy. Certainly sleeping on a mattress pad (queen/king size, double size, single size) will encourage the body and organs to work as efficiently as they can, and in some cases that trigger can stimulate increased metabolism. HOWEVER – the quality and quantity of food that is eaten, is in our view the major factor in weight gain and weight loss.

Drink lots of North Pole water (using a magnetic water coaster).

OESTEO-ARTHRITIS

Our results in significantly relieving the discomfort and pain associated with arthritis are remarkable. Apply wraps or pads directly over the affected part of the body, as and when it is required.  If the arthritis is in several areas of the body, the use of a mattress pad is strongly recommended (queen/king size, double size, single size). Use magnetic innersoles (size 11-13, size 8-10, size 5-7). Double blind studies show that good quality magnet therapy can help over 87% of osteo-arthritis sufferers.

In order to encourage the body to see if there is any path back to restoring sensation in the nervous system and possibly to help cells rebuild themselves, we strongly recommended you sleep on a North Pole orientated magnetic mattress pad (queen/king size, double size, single size). If this is not possible, sit on a pillow pad for at least 4 hours during the day.

PERIOD PAIN

Wear a North Pole only – magnetic pad over the tummy area (ie. Senza). Make sure the pad is large enough to reach out to the fallopian tubes that sometimes produce the ‘dragging’ pains. In severe cases of pain and loss of blood, wearing a magnetic bracelet can help boost the immune system and increase energy levels.

POST POLIO SYNDROME

Our results in significantly relieving the discomfort and pain associated with many types of Post Polio Symptoms are remarkable. Apply wraps or pads (lumbard pad, pillow pad, thumb wrap, carpal wrap, neck wrap, body wrap, knee/elbow wrap) directly over the affected part of the body, as and when it is required.  If the is in several areas of the body, the use of a mattress pad is strongly recommended. Use magnetic innersoles (size 11-13, size 8-10, size 5-7). Double blind studies show that good quality magnet therapy can help over 84% of sufferers.

Drink lots of North Pole water (using a magnetic water coaster).

SCAR TISSUE

Use Micro Neo discs over the scars until the required reduction in damaged tissue is seen. Older scar tissue will require longer treatment of perhaps several months.

SCIATICA

It is best to ‘creep’ up on this condition, and they way to approach it is with two magnetic pads which can be placed either side of the lower back or one on the back and one on the back of the knee (knee wrap large, knee wrap medium, knee/elbow wrap) or calf depending on the route of the pain.  Initially keep pads in place for 1 – 2 hours then remove. Increase the period of use as your body becomes accustomed and as you feel the need.

SEXUAL PROBLEMS

It has been found that placing neodymium disks or small pads close to the genitals can stimulate blood flow and relax tissue. We’ve have been told that it is helpful for men to place a disk in their trouser pocket to promote a change in the cell behavior. Just be careful and DO NOT carry your credit cards in the same pocket. Sleep on a magnetic mattress pad (queen/king size, double size, single size).

SHINGLES

Results in treating shingles vary greatly from patient to patient, but we would certainly give magnet therapy a try.
