I was introduced to a product called "Power Balance Band". One of the ladies at Share a Craft had one and said that it relieved her pain and stiffness, so thought I would give it a try. Well, the day after putting it on, I woke up without back pain or stiffness in my hands. If I have a big day cutting out I do notice some pain, but the next day I'm as right as rain. Other things I have noticed since wearing this band is that I am more motivated, and if I do have to take pain medication for any reason the relief seems to be longer lasting. I take it off each morning to have a shower (though a lot of people don't) and if I forget to put it back on about 8 hours later I start to feel lythar.. litha.. slow. Also find I don't need as much sleep. My son has one, from a toddler he has always run everywhere, doesn't know what slow is, at 24 years of age he has found that it was improved his stamina. A lot of top athletes here in Australia are wearing them, and apparently some of the MotoGP Bike riders also wear them. I bought mine from a Motorcycle Sales place paid $A65, and I think it has been well worth the price, but my son bought his on line (eBay) and paid around $A15 including postage. There are some people I know who have tried them and have had no benefits from it at all, so I suppose it doesn't work for everyone, I myself had no benefit from magnets but my husband and my father both swore my them. They come in different sizes and colours, so measure your wrist before ordering. The band has two holograms on it which are supposed to be infused with frequencies found in nature.
