MAGNABLOG: Pain causes Disability; Rationale and Evidence of Q Magnets Therapy in Pain Treatment, New Articles & More!
Greetings!
The Lancet published a comprehensive review of disabilities caused by disease. In the top 10 diseases that cause disability measured in years lived with a disability were…
1. Low Back Pain
4. Neck Pain
5. Other Musculoskeletal Disorders and
8. Migraines
As a reference point, Diabetes is 10th and Cancer is placed 24th. These major causes of disability place an enormous burden on the community and the health budget. So it’s certainly not wise to ignore pain for any length of time.
We are proud to say that Q Magnets have been specifically designed to potentially provide comfort or localized temporary relief of minor aches and pains and while certainly no silver bullet, provide a risk free and inexpensive natural pain relief therapy to many. See some of the many relevant cases here…

Where’s the scientific evidence?
By understanding the history of magnetic therapy, it’s easy to see why and how the therapeutic use of magnetic fields is surrounded in mystery and scepticism. However in the last 20 years, 11 out of the 13 randomised controlled trials relevant to multipolar magnets listed on our website, show positive effects over placebo. Some of the studies such as Vallbona, Costantino, Man and Laszlo showed significant pain relieving and fracture healing effects.
The two studies that showed no effect were Collacott and Cepeda.
Investigating low back pain was Collacott, who used a weak flexible rubber magnet with an effective penetration of around 10mm. This study was unlikely to show a positive effect because it used the wrong type of magnet. It requires a much more powerful magnet, such as the QF28-6 or OF50-3 to penetrate the 30-40mm required to capture the nerve roots and dorsal horn of the spine to be effective for low back pain.
As for Cepeda, they used a high quality magnet to investigate post operative pain, but placed the devices around the incision. How they could expect a positive result when the field from these magnets did not envelope the target tissue (being the wound), is almost beyond belief.
It is misleading to conclude from these two and other studies, as some observers do that magnetic therapy is not effective. A more scientific conclusion is that the type of magnet used for this condition is not effective. REF

Neuromagnetics is based on the premise that static magnetic fields can be optimised for therapeutic effects and there are ample cell studies, animal studies, case studies and clinical trials to support this.

Q Magnets are also a powerful solution for sports therapists
Sports therapists working with professional teams almost live with their patients and know exactly how typical injuries respond to treatment. By using Q Magnets as an adjunct therapy, recovery times are typically reduced.
For recent injuries such as bruises, sprains and strains, Q Magnet therapy may help to reduce pain and inflammation so people can get back to their sport or favorite physical activities sooner. This is precisely why elite athletes and the medical teams of major sporting teams use Q Magnets. The sports injury recovery effects are plain to see.
Don’t just take our word for it, listen to Simon Black, one of the all time great AFL players and genuine person. Simon was introduced to Q Magnets through his medical team and until we interviewed him, we had no idea how much he used and loved them. He said they were integral in his recovery routine and in extending his playing career.

Using Q Magnets over Acupuncture Points for Relief from Nausea & Better Sleep
Acupuncture points have been shown to respond to multiple stimuli such as needling, mechanical pressure, thermal stimuli (moxa), laser and also electrical and magnetic stimuli. Since the Q Magnet needs to cover the acupuncture point to be most effective, the more accurate your placement the smaller the Q Magnet device you can employ.
