The Magnetic Effect

The study of magnetism promises great discoveries in natural health and medicine. They include pain control and the arrest, management and development of immunity to numerous afflictions which plague mankind .

WHAT IS A MAGNET?
In any substance that is susceptible to becoming magnetized (ferromagnetic or paramagnetic material), the arrangement of the electrons is haphazard. When this material is placed in a strong electrical current, the electric current rearranges the atoms in the material so that they are in alignment - with their electrons orbiting in the same direction. The magnets field strength depends on the number of atoms that can be polarized. This lining up of the electrons during the magnetization process musters and deploys energy which was previously potential.

At one end of a magnet is a SOUTH pole with a vortex of electrons rotating in a clockwise (dextrogyric) direction with a positive charge. At the opposite end is a NORTH pole with a vortex of electrons rotating in a counterclockwise (sinistrogyric) direction with a negative charge.
In the middle of the magnet where the magnetic lines of force cross there is a zone where the magnetic field is zero . This is called the Block wall. This is true for every magnet as well as mother earth. This phenomenon was first discovered by Albert Roy Davis and Walter Rawls in their research laboratory in Green Cove, Florida. This work was later confirmed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

MAGNETIC ENERGY DOES NOT CURE ANYTHING - IT BALANCES THE BODY ENERGY, METABOLISM AND POLARITY THUS GIVING THE BIOLOGICAL SYSTEM A CHANCE TO HEAL ITSELF WHEN PROPER NUTRITION IS PROVIDED.

"The human body and the earth naturally produce electric and magnetic fields. Electro-magnetic fields also can be technologically produced, such as radio and television currents. Practitioners of magnetic field therapy believe that interactions between the body, the earth, and other Electro-magnetic fields cause physical and emotional changes in humans. They also believe that the body's Electro-magnetic field must be in balance to maintain good health"


Magnetic Therapy for Pet and Pet Pals

Magnetic Therapy is often thought of just for people or just for horses, but it is actually the same for all animal forms. Illness and chronic states affect the human and animal body when tissue is stressed, becoming acidic and deoxygenated. Cellular regeneration is muted in an acidic/deoxygenated state causing arthritic tissue to develop instead of proper connective tissue, scar tissue instead of normal skin and muscle tissue, etc. Basically Magnetic Therapy is the use of static magnets to balance blood and tissue cells in an affected area, allowing the cells to become alkaline and oxygenated again. When cells are alkaline and oxygenated they respond properly, regenerate properly and will stop feeding the chronic state.

Animals are extremely sensitive to proper and improper energies. When a sick dog comes across a Proper magnetic field he will gravitate to it instinctively knowing it is helping him. Humans have lost that sensitivity and need to be convinced. The facts are available (1) but modern medicine has been slow to accept it, although some attention has been shown toward Electro-magnetic therapy. Surprisingly, the use of static or non-electric generated magnetics appears to work better and have less potential for side affects. There are a few different types of applications, all north, bipolar, and bipolar concentric, and all can be used successfully if used properly. It is suggested to have a good source for your magnetic purchases where the science is understood and instruction for proper application is available.

Scientists have discovered that cells in the body have a clockwise cellular spin when sick, stressed or injured. If the body stays in this state too long it becomes chronic, while cells in a healthy body spin in a counter clockwise direction and are alkaline and oxygenated. Much talk has been made in health circles about eating foods to create a greater alkaline state in the body and for proper tissue function. With the proper magnetic application we can create this counter -clockwise alkaline/oxygen state instantly in a particular body area or the whole body if a large enough field is used. Simply correct the cellular spin in tissue and allow it to return to a normal process of correctly rebuilding itself.

When PEMF are placed over an area of inflammation, the magnetic field penetrates through the skin and deep into the tissues and blood stream. Damaged cells will react to the presence of a magnetic field by realigning their ions into the correct position. This begins the process of eliminating the excess fluid from with in the cell. Cell damage will stop and healing of the cells will begin over a period of days.

The cellular spin of tissue determines whether it is in a good building and proper operational state or in a degenerative state. A simple application of a proper polarity magnetic pad to the affected area of our pet or ourselves can instantly bring the tissue involved into the health process with minimized symptoms and pain relief. Given time, body tissue helped to stay in the proper state will be allowed to regenerate itself properly, only limited by degrees of alterations due to accident damage or invasive traditional treatments. Of course your Vet is your pet's health professional and they should always determine when any treatment should be continued or discontinued.

Magnetism is using Nature's Energy to help overcome the Magnetic Deficiency Syndrome while living in man made magnetic fields. The magnetic field therapy increases blood flow, nutrition and oxygen to the body's cells and tissues

Magnetic Therapy in its natural state is the dominant North Pole field of the Earth dominating over the life processes of the body. With a full magnetic field from the Earth the body goes through many actions to promote good growth, strengthen tissue and fight disease and damage from accidents or injury. However most of the Earth does not have a full magnetic field. Scientists tell us that as a normal process the Earth's poles reverse approximately every 5,000 years. This could explain the loss of a lot of dinosaur. As we move to this polarity switch, in about 2,000 years, the Earth's magnetic field is lessening. With a decreased field the body is not always able to make all the changes it should and it makes it unable to successfully protect itself. An interesting note is that there are only four places left on Earth with full magnetic fields. Two habitable and two are not. The not are the North Pole and the South Pole. The habitable are Sedona, Arizona and Lourdes, France - both known for healthy living and healing. They can be thought of as East and West Poles.

Magnetic Therapy works by affecting our blood. Normally the blood operates in a North Pole orientation, or under a North Pole effect. In this polarity the blood is oxygenated and its process of distributing nutrients and pulling wastes and toxins from injured tissue is made most efficient. When the body is ill or injured the polarity of the site is switched by the body to a South Pole orientation. This creates faster, excited movement meant to draw blood cells to the area for healing. The blood does not work well in a South Pole orientation. Its movement does not allow normal function and an acid state is developed, which micro-organisms, viruses and malignance thrive in. *The chart below shows the affect of North and South Pole applications on the body.* Once the blood has been drawn to the area, the body, with the help of the Earth's magnetic field is supposed to change the polarity of the blood back to a North Pole orientation so positive activity by the blood may take place.

The problem is that with a reduced magnetic field the body can not always make this necessary conversion and the injury/illness area is left in a South Pole orientation thwarting good cell growth with its acid effect and slowing the healing process. Without blood removing wastes and toxins from injury/illness sites they are left there to fester and become unwanted bursas or arthritic tissue or bad calcification. The increase in conditions like Arthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, ADD, ADHD and a multitude of cancers and other Auto-Immune system diseases have increased with the decrease of the magnetic field. Other problems are slow healing in fracture sets and longer recovery periods of disability after accidents. Another sign of this is the great increase in repetitive motion injuries in every form of business and sport. The answer in many cases is Proper Polarity Magnetic Therapy.

By applying a structured North Pole magnetic field, using high strength North Pole pad, we can convert the polarity of the blood in the injury/illness area allowing the blood to work as it should, pulling wastes and toxins away to the kidneys and other cleansing organs, clearing a path for good cell growth aided by the nutrients the blood can now deliver. Simple and totally natural. Use a Natural field to act as a catalyst to normal blood functions. The body can now heal itself naturally. Of course if there are broken bones or vertebrae out of place the magnets will not do it alone, this is time for a good chiropractor. Magnetic Therapy is only a piece of the health pie allowing us to avoid in many cases unnatural medicines and sometimes making surgical procedures unnecessary. Magnetic Therapy works great on many conditions and studies are coming up with more uses every day. Like the positive effects of drinking North Pole magnetized water for those with conditions like the Arthritis's, Fibromyalgia, Gout and ADHD to name a few. People are having great success but that's not a reason to avoid health professionals. After all without good diagnosis what do we treat? Magnetic Therapy works as well on Horses, Dogs and Cats as it does for people.

Apply a natural North Pole magnetic field. Convert the polarity of the blood to the North Pole orientated working polarity. Let the body heal itself. What is more natural than that?

BioMagnetics by Jerry W. Decker
with information from "The Magnetic Effect"
by Albert Roy Davis and Walter C. Rawls

One of the most important series of experiments ever done and yet still not widely known, were those carried out by Albert Roy Davis in conjunction with Walter Rawls. These experiments are FUNDAMENTAL to an understanding of magnetic forces and are to this day not being used widely because many have never heard of them.
They found that each pole of a magnet has SPECIFIC effects that are quite different from those of a full magnet where both poles are applied simultaneously. These polar effects are deemed "mono-polar"for one pole. The poles spin in opposite directions and have opposite properties.
Specifically, North Pole energies cause mass to contract and condense, rotating in a CCW direction, while South Pole energies cause mass to expand and dissipate, rotating in a CW direction.

Also, North Pole energies have alkaline properties while South Pole energy is acid. North pole energies tend to collect fluids while South Pole energies dissipate fluids. North pole energy is referred to as negative because it reduces or attracts, while South pole energy is referred to as positive because it expands and dissipates.
It was found that use of a North Pole would provide an energetic environment which would cause cancer cells to contract and die out.
This energetic environment also has other healthy applications as detailed in their many books.

One of the most basic functions magnetic fields have in the body is to increase circulation. When a cell (such as a red blood cell) is injured or ill, it does not hold its ideal charge. This causes red cells to “stick” together, making circulation slow. When a magnetic field passes through the red cell, the membrane becomes properly charged, allowing the cell to repel itself and keep itself separate from other red cells, thereby increasing circulation. In addition, PEMFs increase various chemicals in the blood vessel walls that cause the blood vessels to dilate, improving the amount of blood flowing through the vessels and therefore increasing the amount of oxygen delivered to the tissues

A new field of energy medicine is emerging. Magnetic energy can be used as a non- nutritional source of energy to evoke specific biological responses. Life is a matter of balance between north and south pole magnetic polarities and not just one or the other of the poles. The metabolic responses of biological systems to specific magnetic energy polarity and Gauss strength are consistently dependable. The body is an electrical as well as a chemical unit. Magnetic fields produce small electrical currents under the skin - sufficiently powerful enough to cause biological effects such as pain reduction, regeneration of cells and nerves, etc. Magnets usually work better than they are predicted to - they are the safest and finest therapy you can buy - nothing is better in many cases. If you sense any discomfort while wearing any magnetic device - take it off and the discomfort will go away very quickly. You don't have to worry about creating another conditions from an overdose

BEFORE USING MAGNETIC ENERGY YOU SHOULD FIND OUT WHY AND WHERE THE PAIN IS COMING FROM BY CONSULTING YOUR HEALTH PROFESSIONAL

The beauty of the universe and the biological systems within it is its marvelous simplicity, unity of design and orderliness. North magnetic energy can cause increased melatonin production by stimulating the pineal gland at night. Melatonin has been established as having the values of a master control over hormones, sleep, immune function, anti oxidants, infections, respiration, mineral metabolism and all other metabolic energy systems. While our body is recovering its biological energy loss, as we sleep, melatonin and growth hormone are active participants in this recovery process

We hope this helps provide a basic understanding how the Magnetic effect, especially PEMFs, work in the body. In addition to these basic balancing actions, magnetic fields also help with many other functions and conditions, and new ones are discovered regularly.
Some of these other actions include:
• reducing muscle tension
• improving tissue healing
• reducing pain
• increasing energy
• improving clotting factors
• slowing the development of arthritis

• helping nerve function
• helping liver function
• balancing the acupuncture meridians
• improving sleep
• making soft tissue more flexible

Multiwave oscillators

The Ultimate PEMF system

Rife machines and Multiwave oscillators are claimed to complement each other based on the principle that life forms absorb energy. A multiwave Oscillator uses this principle to strengthen cells within the body to resist disease while a Rife machine uses this principle to destroy microorganisms with an overdose of frequency energy.
