Q: Hi Debbie,
My husband has Ankylosing Spondylitis and suffers constant pain with it. I have read that some of the magnetic therapy bracelets would help, what would you advice? Any help will be much appreciated. Thank You in advance

Hello Laura,

Thank you for your email.

Magnetic therapy can help your husband's condition, but a bracelet would not be the best way to go.

It would depend on where he suffers with his pain. Typically his condition starts with lower back pain and can gradually move up the spine into the neck and shoulders. These areas
require different types of magnetic device to treat them.

If his pain is more in his lower back then he can use a magnetic back belt. This is a soft neoprene strap that fastens with velcro. It contains 12 x 2,400 gauss magnets so is of a high strength. It can be worn around the waist or lower down over the hips if his pain is more in his lower back. The magnets will increase the circulation to the area, bringing with it a rich supply of nutrients, oxygen and endorphins which are needed to encourage the body to heal
and reduce pain and inflammation.

If his pain is in his shoulders or neck then he would be better off with a stainless steel necklace. The necklace contains a 3,000 gauss magnet behind each link so is of a
very high strength. The magnets in the necklace will work the same way as the magnets in the belt.

If he didn't want to wear separate items, we do thing like bed pad and mattress covers that cover a larger area and so can treat multiple areas at the same time.

If you need any more advice or if is pain is somewhere else and you need to know more then please get in touch.

Regards

Debbie
