cure for their health disorders through alternative therapy without any side effects.

has been used to alleviate many kinds of joint pain in the human body such as arthritic pain, sciatic pain
and fibromyalgia.
It is common method to apply heat packs to the body segment or joint that is aching and swollen.
Magnets also direct warmth alongwith improved blood circulation, so they are used to relieve body
pains and inflammation. Inflammation (Latin, inflammare, to set on fire) is part of the complex biological
response of vascular tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants.
