Unfair Irrational Stigmatization of Magnetic Field Therapy in Modern Media
Magnetic field therapy has a rich history, dating back centuries, and used for a variety of therapeutic purposes. First used by prominent scientists, like the physician to Queen Elizabeth I, William Gilbert and the famous 19th century physician Franz Mesmer, who popularised animal magnetism and mesmerism. Sure, there have been dodgy practices using static magnets, but nothing as serious as...
Optimizing Static Magnetic Fields for Therapeutic Use: Insights and Innovations
In the developing fields of biohacking and alternative therapies, the advantages of static magnetic fields are attracting greater attention. A recent article in Neuroscience News explores how Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) can be optimized to treat depression, highlighting the broader possibilities of magnetic therapies. Drawing parallels from TMS, it’s obvious that static magnets can...
“Breakthrough in Fibromyalgia Treatment: How rTMS and Static Magnets Can Transform Lives”
A recent study published in Brain Sciences explored the impact of 20 sessions of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on patients with fibromyalgia, revealing significant improvements in cognitive and psychiatric functions compared to a sham treatment group. This finding highlights the potential benefits of noninvasive brain stimulation techniques, such as rTMS, in...
Aurora Australis and the Earth’s Magnetic Field
We live in the Earth’s magnetic field 24/7 and at times, its effects become visible. Migratory birds and turtles are known to use the Earth’s magnetic field to navigate long distances. But did you know the Aurora Australis, the southern lights and Aurora Borealis, the northern lights are a phenomena caused by the Earth’s magnetic field?Auror Australis. Fish Creek, Victoria.

Combining TENS and Q Magnets
TENS machines are thought to work by activating the fast-conducting myelinated nerves, such as A-Beta fibres and closing the Pain-Gate. Whereas Q magnets mainly inhibit the slow-conducting unmyelinated nerves, such as C-fibres. Combining the two modalities, can simultaneously target both the fast-conducting and slow-conducting nerves and improve the effects on some of the more complex painful...
Why magnet design matters? Learning from Cow Magnets
Magnetic materials are attracted to field gradients and NOT to a uniform or what physicists call a homogeneous field. This is well illustrated with the cow magnet. Cow magnets are used by cattle farmers to safely collect any metal objects such as nails or barbed wire their animal might ingest. Because the cow magnet produces a field gradient along the length of its shaft, metal objects will neatly stick to its sides. This is how it works…

How Rockefeller’s Flexner Report Suppressed Electric & Magnetic therapy
How the Rockefeller sponsored Flexner Report from 1910 affected medical training and the use of electric and magnetic fields.
The role of sympathetic nervous system in chronic pain and Q Magnet therapy application
The SNS can play a major role in sustaining chronic pain, particularly in the case of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CPRS). Learn how Q Magnets can be applied for therapeutic effects on pain modulation and reducing sympathetic overload.
Dr Goiz Biomagnetic Pairing and Q Magnets
According to Dr Goiz, the biomagnetic pairing technique involves using pairs of bipolar magnets to balance pH, improve the immune system and overcome disease. Studies that show positive benefits for pain relief are achieved when multipolar magnets such as Q Magnets are specifically placed on areas such as trigger points and nerve connections.

What if your clinical trial reveals something opposite to that which you were expecting?
In a conversation with popular psychologist Jordan Peterson, he proposed that, “One of the hallmarks of the validity in science, if you discover something and you really wish it wasn’t true, then it probably is.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tsuhfsfk6Kk&t=3075s How does this relate to magnetic field therapy? Well in 1997, there was a published randomised controlled clinical trial that...
Q Magnets Case Study Published in the Medical Acupuncture Journal
Medical acupuncturists are experts at identifying and accurately locating the morphological structures to be targeted. Quadrapolar, or Q Magnets produce an optimised field and provide the acupuncturist with an additional modality to target these structures that is safe, specific, simple to use and provides a 24/7 application option. A new study by a veteran acupuncturist shows the true...
Iliopsoas, trigger point therapy and Magnetic field therapy
Ilopsoas myofascial dysfunction can result in trigger point pain and is many times the hidden culprit in chronic back pain. Massage, exercise, dry needling, physiotherapy, injections and surgery are commonly prescribed. Magnetic field therapy can also be a useful tool.

Fan, Y et al (2021) research review on analgesic effects of static magnetic field therapy
An in-depth research review on the analgesic effects of static magnetic field therapy has just been published in Bioelectromagnetics. The journal is published by BEMS (the Bioelectromagnetic Society) and is the authoritative record for natural and applied electromagnetic fields in biology and medicine. Scientists Yixiang Fan et al from Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Science and...
Lyme Disease & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Can Magnetic Therapy Help?

Using Q Magnets to Help Recover from Minor Hamstring Strain
Hamstring strains are one of the athlete’s worst nightmares. A typical hamstring strain can sideline an athlete for 2-4 weeks and even up to 3-6 months. In addition the pain and fear avoidance of using the muscle can prevent even modest training during rehabilitation. Fast recovery is the goal! The hamstring comprises four muscles, with the origin at the ischial tuberosity (pelvis) and insertion...
How Magnetic Fields Affect Water and Implications for Magnetic Therapy Research
Magnetic fields have an effect on water that includes changing its boiling point, evaporation rate and pH. Simply changing the strength, position and the field gradient of the magnet can significantly change the mechanism of action and the effect of water on human body. Magnetic field gradients generated by multipolar magnets such as Quadrapolar magnets are where almost all of the positive clinical trial data reside.

US getting serious about opioid crisis?
There is some good news coming out of the US with regard to the very high use of opioids for pain relief. The first is that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recently announced US$945M in funding to combat the problem via its NIH HEAL Initiative. HEAL stands for Helping to End Addiction Long term. It is a response to the roughly 50 million adults in the US with chronic pain and the...
Recent research highlights dangers of pharmaceutical pain relief
As we reported in our previous article 'Is current pain medication targeting just the initial pain?'(1), the leader of the research team highlighted the importance of finding alternatives to pharmaceutical pain management as the opioid crisis in the US continues. A recent report in the journal JAMA Network Open(2) looked at the rate of opioid prescription after surgery in the US and compared it...
Static magnetic fields enhancing stem cell activity
Stem cell research shows that static magnetic fields may enhance the body’s natural ability to stimulate dentine formation. Dentinogenesis can be facilitated through stem cell proliferation, migration and differentiation, which previous studies have shown can be improved with an external static magnetic field. Q Magnets such as our smallest QF10-2 can easily be applied to target gums and reduce pain. Read our research review to learn more.
