Magnetic Bracelets and Pain Relief: Types and Models
If you've been paying attention to the news, you may have heard that magnetic bracelets are used primarily for hand, elbow, and wrist pain. You may also know that arthritis pain suffers have discovered them, and golfers have been wearing them for years. Some people wear them as a preventative measure.
You may also have been exposed to some of the benefits of wearing a magnetic bracelet. What you may not know is what the differences are between the various types.
There are variations, but basically bracelets can be categorized into a few different major categories. Below is an outline of the differences between those categories.
Magnetic bracelets can be made as singles, doubles, triples, or as a magnetic wraps.
Singles - Single bracelets are, like the name says, a single strand of bead. The beads can be either all magnetic, or magnetic with accent beads. They can be either the stretchy type, or non-stretchy with a magnetic clasp.
Doubles - Doubles are two strands of beads, non-stretchy type, with a magnetic clasp. Doubles allow for up to twice the magnets as singles which can provide for stronger therapy.
Triples - Triple bracelets are made with three strands of beads and a magnetic clasp. They may have up to three times the number of magnets as a single.
Lariats - Magnetic lariats are also called magnetic wraps or snakes, and can be used as a necklace or an anklet as well. Although varying sizes are available, they are typically 36 or 37 inches long. Instead of a clasp, they simply wrap around your arm, your neck, or your ankle, and use the magnets to hold together. Lariats are popular because of their unique look, and their versatility and strength.
Now that you know the basic types, you can better make your choice. Keep in mind that style and attractiveness are secondary concerns unless you're buying strictly for fashion.
One more thought: when choosing magnetic bracelets, you want the strongest therapy advantages for pain relief that you can find. That means selecting the one with the largest number of strong magnets.
