Magnetic Therapy

Qi blockage causes an imbalance in our bodies. Meridians are prone to energy blockages. Television, computers, cell phones, traveling by airplane, plastic furniture, can cause energy blockage. The objective of magnets is to reestablish the Qi flow by breaking the static that is our body’s electromagnetic field, which causes an imbalance in our body. Also, magnets can be used instead of needles and they do not only have the same effect as needles, but magnets can also improve the treatment since they can stay on your skin for up to a week or two and they can easily continue enhancing your Qi flow and breaking statics during that long period of time. The majority of doctors that practice Chinese medicine, apply small magnets into the acupressure points in order to enhance the healing process (Sanchez 2001).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Acupressure

Acupressure is exactly the same as acupuncture but instead of using needles, fingers are used in order to target a specific acupuncture point. It has the same effect as acupuncture and it is very soothing and relaxing. Acupressure is known to be highly effective in pain relief (WebMD, LLC).

 

Other benefits of acupressure are:

 

• Release tension

• Increase blood circulation

• Enhance the QI flow in order to promote self-healing and balance in our body

• Fortifies the sexual reproductive system

• Tone facial and back muscles

​

Considerations:

• Your doctor can put you as many magnets as they think is necessary.

• Magnets can last about one to two weeks.
