I recently had surgery and have a cast on my right arm…and it gets VERY itchy after a week or so.  Chopsticks and knitting needles are all too short…but a small magnet tucked into the underside of the cast and then ‘dragged’ along by a larger magnet was a great way to scratch those hard to reach spots.  The workcover people think it’s a fantastic idea!!  :-)

Brilliant…!

Here’s a letter we received from Aussie Magnets customer Ken, who managed to cure a burning pain in his hand using Rare Earth Sphere magnets

Hi Folks,

I have used two flat bar magnets to cure a burning pain in my r/h thumb. One on the underside of thumb and the secound on top taped with sticking plaster. I left this cast on every night for 4 days and the pain disappered and never came back …now 6 years ago. I believe the magnets increased the blood flow to some possible nerve problem.

I made up a coiled band with rare earth ball 2mm magnets, 74 of them in a long chain and coilded them around my wifes index finger and taped them in position. She had stabbed hershelf with a sharp knife while parting frozen hash browns AND THE FINGER HAD TURNED BLUE AND STAYED ICE COLD. There was no blood circulation. The magnets on the first morning after wearing them reduced the blue down to 50% and the finger warmed up again. After 3 days her finger was back to normal… the knife had hit right into the bone …that’s how deep the wound was.

Hope others can experiment and try this out. It works.

Regards Ken Bornman

Well done, Ken! Magnets come to the rescue once more. There are lots of people who doubt the validity of magnets in health and pain relief (to be honest, we share some of those doubts), but it’s always fantastic to hear customers who have successfully cured their ails with a few simple magnets.
