Magnetic field therapy which is natural, non-invasive and safe is proving to be an important tool in the integrative pain management toolbox.
Integrative pain management is a framework of pain treatment where the focus is on biopsychosocial needs of those in pain. In most cases chronic pain is accompanied by depression, insomnia, fatigue, and physical deconditioning, which often create barriers to recovery. Therefore, a solution which is patient-centered and preventive in nature can greatly help improve life and longevity.
Magnetic therapy has been around longer than current civilization. From the earliest recorded history of medicine, Greek physicians and scientists were intrigued with magnetic substances and the way in which they affected the human body.
Magnetic fields have also seen a great amount of research for medical applications such as MRI and now, magnetic field therapy has been a subject of research and development for pain relief. The most successful studies on magnetic therapy for pain management have multipolar magnets.
Last year, I discovered Q Magnets from Australia. They have been pushing the boundaries of multipolar magnetic therapy for integrative pain management. Digging deeper, I found that it’s not a matter of simple construction at all. The magnets have very specific field characteristics optimized to deliver the field to specific parts of the body.
Q Magnets
Q Magnets are designed and manufactured based on scientific evidence and application is based on clinical trials and the feedback of thousands of patients treated by health professionals such as neurologists, doctors and physiotherapists.
They’ve developed more than 20 magnet models with the ability to target most areas of pain such as as knee, neck, shoulders, lower back, etc. and also make powerful magnetic mattress pads known as Q Blankets to allow treating the entire body.
Currently, I use the Q Blankets, which work great for all sorts of localized pain conditions and provide benefits of magnetic mattress pads. The Q Magnets magnetic blankets have 13 or 28 of their powerful quadrapolar magnets (Q28-3) and high quality polar fleece fabric to provide the most comforting sleep-time magnetic therapy.
