BASIC PRINCIPLES OF MAGNETIC
THERAPY - Human
Body:
Human
body is unique. It consists of cells, which are a minute mass of
protoplasm containing a nucleus. Protoplasm, which is synonymous to
Cytoplasm, means the complex chemical compound constituting the main
part of the living substance of the cell, other than the contents of the
nucleus. It has now been
established that each human cell is a small magnetic piece and this
property, naturally, passed onto all the organs, all of them are
composed of cells and tissues. And, tissues are a collection of cells or
fibers of similar function forming a structure. Body fluids contain
various ions such as Potassium ion (K+), Chloride ion (Cl), Phosphoric
ion (PO4) Sodium ion
(NA+) etc.
Ion is a
charged atom or radical. In electrolysis – electrolysis means chemical
decomposition by electricity with migration of ions. Ions in a solution
have a tendency to pass to one or the other Pole. Ions are conductors
and the electric current passing through them are bound to be associated
with magnetic fields around them. This electromagnetic field is the
basic premise on which Magnetic therapy is built. This magnetic field
has a proclivity to fluctuate. It is mind boggling to note that organs
like brain emit a peak magnetic field in the region of 3,00,000
kilo-gauss! This is when the person sleeps. At normal hours, the value
of magnetic field may differ. So, there is an average magnetic value of
each organ of the body available. If any organ developed any ailment,
immediately its magnetic field gets disturbed, which naturally tells
upon its magnetic values. The beauty is that this bio-magnetic field can
be induced to regain its normal value by the application of magnets on
the affected organ. This is the essence of magnetic therapy.
Magnetic
Therapy is said to have soothing effect on the cells, tissues and
nerves, when applied to an affected part and cause to lessen the pain,
stiffness, soreness or swelling. Magnetic Therapy acts:
