Animal Magnetism
Not much going on around here. No major new signings for the Sox so far. And the only thing I have to say about Mark Teixiera letting his wife decide what team he goes to…well, she sounds like a “rhymes with witch” to me, and is probably just out for the most money her husband can earn. She probably would not fit in with the Red Sox wives, who are very active in charitable activities. Sounds like she cares more about the glam and glitz of being a Y***** wife.
Whatever. The Sox will be fine with the guys we’ve already got. I hope…

Moving on…today I would like to share something that might be of interest to you…magnetic bracelets. Magnets are said to have healing powers, many claim that wearing magnets helps relieve pain and swelling, increase circulation, and assist in sleep. When I was given the opportunity to receive one of these bracelets from MagnetJewelryStore.com, and post an honest review of it, I jumped at the chance. I am not a huge fan of doctors, hospitals, and conventional medicine. For me, sometimes taking medication for a problem causes side effects that are worse than the problem I took the meds for in the first place!  Not fun!
Anyhoo, this is the bracelet they sent me. You can learn more about it, and order one of your own, HERE. This is a style which could be worn by both men and women. It’s a very nice stainless steel bracelet, and excellent quality for the money. I am impressed.

As you can see from these next pictures, the magnets are on the inside of the bracelet, and they go all the way around. The little round things you see are the magnets.

Here is a close-up:

And, to show you that it REALLY is magnetic, here it is with a paper clip stuck to it. Little Mitty here was very fascinated by this bracelet…oh, LOOK! It’s SHINY! It took me a few attempts to get this pic, because she wouldn’t stop trying to swat at it!

But I’m sure you want to know the answer to the burning question…do these things WORK? I’ve only been wearing mine for a few days, but I have noticed that I’ve been sleeping better, and have less pain.
I have been plagued with lower back pain, on the right side, for years…it is not constant, chronic pain, but there are some situations that put my back in some excruciating pain. One of the worst ones is…get this…washing dishes.
You see, we don’t have a dishwasher, and the kitchen sink in this apartment was designed either for midgets, or under the ASSumption that only women wash dishes, and that all women are short. Anyhoo, I happen to be 5′ 10″ tall, and having to hunch over the sink to wash dishes makes my lower back muscles scream out in pain. I wash a few dishes, it starts to hurt, and I have to take a break, stretch out, and take a pain reliever before I can resume this chore. So it takes a lot longer than it should to wash a sink full of dishes.
I have begged and pleaded with my husband to help me with this, to at least wash any dishes he uses right after he uses them, to lighten my dishwashing load. I have threatened to donate all of our dishes and silverware to the Salvation Army, and just use paper plates and plastic utensils from now on. Despite the fact that we now must pay to throw away trash, this still has had no effect. I wished that the Karma Fairy would come and inflict him with this same back pain for just one hour, so he could feel for himself what it is like for me. Never happened, though…LOL!
After having worn the bracelet on my left wrist nonstop for a few days, I went and tackled yet another sink full of dishes that he had left piled up for all of last week (he was home on vacation from work between Christmas and New Year’s).
Amazingly, I was able to get through them all without having to take a break! Was there still any pain? Yes, but it was a much duller version than usual. And for once, I didn’t have to take anything for it.
Now, everybody is different, so I can’t claim that you or anyone else will see the same results, as quickly as I did, or even at all. But I know that I am going to keep wearing this thing, and perhaps order other items from MagnetJewelryStore.com…they have magnetic insoles which may be good for aching feet.
Even if the bracelet doesn’t work for you…hey, you still have a very attractive piece of jewelry, at a good price!
