Magnetic therapy is one of the latest treatments for sufferers of chronic pain. In recent years, the popularity of this therapy has soared to where it can now help sufferers while they sleep by using a magnetic mattress pad. This article provides you with an overview of the benefits of magnetic mattress pad.

Magnetic mattress pad

A magnetic mattress pad is a non-invasive method to treat pain and discomfort using magnets sewn into the mattress. The pad is about three inches thick with strips of magnets sewn into the fabric. The strips of magnets are covered with fibres or foam for comfort. Each pad is rated by the force of the magnets and range anywhere from 200 to 10,000 gauss, which is the measurement of magnetic force.

How it works

Magnetic therapy, although its popularily is recent, has been used in a variety of ways for thousands of years. Magnets are used as part of a holistic approach by aligning the body with the magnetic poles to bring pain relief and other health benefits. Pain relief A magnetic mattress has been shown to help alleviate the suffering from muscle, joint, and bone pain. Sufferers of chronic back pain or arthritis are able to fall asleep and stay asleep while the magnets help to relieve their pain. Circulation The magnets are placed in strategic positions that help to revitalise organs and bring the balance back in the body. In doing that, it helps to improve the body’s blood flow for those who suffer from poor circulation. Relaxation The therapeutic magnets also help in relaxing the body to provide a more restful and deeper sleep each night. That in turn helps to reduce stress, as you are more rested and able to think clearer the next morning. It has also been suggested that those with insomnia relax faster and fall asleep easier when using these pads.

How to use it

The magnetic mattress pad fits right on the top of your existing mattress, so there is no special installation instructions, and you can use it as soon as you bring it home. Magnetic mattress pads come in a variety of sizes to fit all bed sizes from the king size adult's beds to small single children’s beds. Tips Look at the number of magnets, the force, and the pad materials when shopping for one. As with anything which is health related, consult your doctor before purchasing one for advice, on whether your condition can benefit from magnetic therapy.

Where to buy a bathroom spacesaver

The bathroom, as we know it today, is a fairly recent development. According to Kira, "From the time of the Roman Empire through the 18th century, bathing was public activity..." It was not until the twentieth century that the bathroom became the private room of today. In older buildings, the bathroom is often a small space - perhaps even one of the smallest rooms in the house. Due to this, keeping the bathroom organised so it creates the illusion of space is important. Bathroom spacesavers help greatly in this endeavour.
