I had a magnetic hematite ring once that alleviated almost all the pain from my carpal tunnel..unfortunately, I broke it and haven't found another like it since..Magnets have been used for all types of pain therapy for a very long time..have you ever used it and what was it used for? Did you get any noticeable relief? Please share your experiences with us.

I have used one on my wrist and I also have magnetic insoles. they do wonders for my feet. I use a small round one for headaches. They can also be used on dogs to help with arthritis. I combine magnets and Reiki to deal with pain.
