Lightbulb re magnets...

The "black" kind-- are weak. Insoles never worked for me either.

My magnets are 10,000 gauss. Stronger than Brian's.

The purpose of the electromagnet in the Magnassager is to move the balls around. I don't think therapeutically it is much in the way of magnet therapy.

Melody, you know that nerves share pathways to the spinal cord. I think when
you massage Alan's thighs, you are interrupting pain signals from the feet, with deep muscle sensations, from the thigh. It is like when one uses menthol to cool, burning. It is not actually "COLD" but overriding the burning signals from the other nerves.
