Ball players where them.
I know a few others that where them.
Everyone of them claims that they work.

I think it is psycho-babble and these guys just think they are working.

Magnets in the bracelets are supposed to trick up your immune system or some crap.

I was almost married to an Asian chick so I got some insight on this stuff...



Some people believe that magnets, some precious stones and metals have a healing effect.



Ever see an Asian women wearing green jade bracelets? Its not just cosmetic some believe the jade has healing powers and promotes good health.



If your a scientific person it will be difficult for you to believe in the FIR negative ion technology because the theory assumes the metals or gems balance the positive and negative ions in the body...I guess when you get too many negative ions it has a negative effect on you... so that's how I remember it. When you get too many negative ions and not enough positive it screws up the circulation in your body so these bracelets "regulate" the flow of ions which improves circulation. It's not a real concrete theory but I heard there was clinical trials done that resulted in improvements with your mental health (depression, etc.) but the study mention nothing for healing powers for injuries to wrists or shoulders.



Same bulshit as the feet treatments. Have you seen those? Put your feet in the brown solution then the contaminants flow through your body and out the pores of your feet. The contaminants then change the color of the brown solution you submerged your feet in. From the solution color the technician(usually the same chick doing wifes nails) can determine if you have arthritis, cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure...oh shit its crazy...im done talking about it....you have to BELIEVE in BS to buy into this oriental medicine...

its not the Bracelets that are working for the baseball players, its the Steroids they use. The bracelets are just a bonus.

My dad told me he mixed Marvel Mystery oil with his gasoline and his Hodaka ran fine. True story.

Yet he would always go to the shop and buy Yamalube for my bikes. I think my dad has more faith in the Yamalube than the Marvel Mystery oil but he swears it worked and worked fine.

There was a pic a while back of Millsaps wearing some type of "stickers" on his arms. I thought those were related to the Phiten (magnetic) technology? At any rate, in the ads I've seen for Phiten, it appears that Yamaha is somehow involved. Perhaps they own Phiten?

Funny thing was last year when I did my shoulder the following week I had a Care box with all that in it. Come to find out Yamaha is the distributor for them in the states. I used the bracelets, necklace and the stickers!! Hey I was trying anything at that point to get my shoulder better and they did work!!

just wrap your self in copper wire, and connect one end to the positive terminal and the other to the negative terminal of a battery, and then you will be a magnet.

It's a known fact that no one knows.
Seriously, placebo's will work for some and not for others. The mind is a very powerful tool, learn how to use it to your advantage.
