Copper Jewelry
for Arthritis Pain Relief
Copper jewelry has an old world charm to it and is very fashionable. It is quite popular and gets a lot of attention when displayed for the public. Copper bracelets are touted specifically for arthritis pain and inflammation. Copper, as an arthritis treatment, has been around since the time of the ancient Greeks.
Some copper bracelets, such as certain bangles, also have magnets in them. The magnets are intended to enhance the pain relieving effect.
This "hybrid" copper magnetic jewelry is very popular, especially among golfers, looking to reduce the effects that the stress of swinging a golf club has. Some golfers and others wear copper necklaces, and copper rings as well.
According to the web site of the University of Maryland Medical Center, arthritis pain relief is a main reason why people wear copper jewelry. Many people with arthritis wear copper bracelets in the hopes of relieving the associated pain and inflammation...
"Animal studies suggest that oral copper supplements reduce the development and progression of arthritis. Many people with arthritis (both rheumatoid and osteo) apply copper solutions to their skin or wear copper bracelets in hopes of relieving pain and inflammation associated with this joint condition. Reports of success with these methods, however, are mixed, but one study from the 1970s did show that the copper bracelets worked better than placebo bracelets. Sweat can interfere with how well the topical copper solutions and bracelets work."
A woman stopped by our booth the other day to have a look at our magnetic jewelry. She was wearing a copper bracelet. She said that she had arthritis in her hip, but most of her days were pain free now. She blames her jewelry. Copper jewelry is attractive, classic, and worn by many to relieve pain, especially arthritis pain. Perhaps you'll give it a try.
