Types of Magnetic Bracelets for Pain Relief
You may know by now that magnetic bracelets are used primarily for arm and wrist pain. You may also know that
arthritis sufferers wear them,
golfers wear them, and some people wear them as a preventative measure.
You may also know some of the
benefits of wearing a magnetic bracelet.
What you may not know is how to choose from the various types. Let's look at the differences between the types so you have a better idea of what you're looking at.
Although there are variations, bracelets can be categorized into a few different major styles based on construction. As you decide on which bracelet is right for you, there are several things to keep in mind.
Magnetic bracelets can be made as singles, doubles, triples, or as a magnetic wrap or lariat.
- Singles - Single bracelets are very simply a single strand of bead, either all magnetic or magnetic with accent beads of some kind. They can be the claspless stretchy type, or be non-stretchy with a magnetic clasp.
- Doubles - Doubles are two strands of the beads with a magnetic clasp. Doubles give the opportunity to double the number of magnets used for stronger therapy.
- Triples - Triples are three strands and a magnetic clasp, and may have three times the number of magnets as a single.
- Lariats - Magnetic lariats are also called magnetic wraps, or snake bracelets, and can be used as a necklace or an anklet as well. They are typically 36 or 37 inches long, and have no clasp. They simply wrap around your arm, your neck, or your ankle, using the magnets to stay together. They are very popular because of their versatility, strength, and unique look.
Do magnetic bracelets work?
Here is a discussion on now magnetic therapy bracelets are different.
This is a question we are asked a lot, and I will answer it with a story. A golfer bought a magnetic bracelet today. Like many of the golfers, he bought one of the all black doubles. These are the most powerful magnetic bracelets you can get, and very popular with the golfers.
They are all black, as almost every component in the bracelet is a magnet. The one he bought had 22 2,400 gauss magnets, and 10 800-1,000 gauss magnets. They have a 5,000 gauss magnetic clasp, and won't come off during a golf swing (or while I'm playing the drums either).
He came in hoping that Cindy could repair the one he had broken, which was purchased from someone else. He was missing several pieces from it, however, including some tiger eye stones that Cindy did not have in stock. He decided instead to purchase the double. His comment was one that we hear often... that he missed wearing his magnetic bracelet, and he could feel the difference after a few days without it.
