Anyone tried magnetic insoles in their shoes?
 
So I hear this may work somewhere on the net, my parents were in Nikken, I think to myself - no worries, I'll just get some magsteps!! After 80 or 90 bucks, including postage, they arrive.

I put them on. In about two hours, I notice my head / brain feels nice and clear, I thought, "Wow... I don't feel so doomed!" Like I could feel positive. About hour three - Wham! The mother of all all-over itch attacks hits! I have been afraid to put them back on since.

It seems like whatever I do that makes my head feel better, magnetic soles, fish oil, makes the neuropathy act up.

I was just curious if anyone else tried them - or similar. Thank you, Karen

I use magnets for pain. I have done so for many years.

I have a post here too.

I never had much success with the commercial or Nikken types.
They are not very strong. I bought some shoe insoles once, and they did nothing for me.

I use very high gauss ones, I buy cheaply on the net.
I have plastic coated ones, and the typical nickel ones that are 1 in in diameter. About 2 yrs ago I made magnet pads ...3 sewn into a long thin pad, with all 3 with one pole in one direction.

I use these for my pain, that is arthritic in nature. I place them over nerve pathways, in the groin, neck, or arm when I have pain. Usually 20 minutes is all I need for one treatment with the very strong ones I use.

You can pay a fortune for some commercial medical magnets or make a system for yourself. Brian here also used magnets for his pain.

Here is my thread:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/sh...hlight=magnets

My tendon leg injury flairs up now and then at night in bed so I put my long pad over it and I don't need strong pain medication.
I also used a very small high gauss magnet on my broken big toe of my right foot, when a boulder rolled onto my foot while we were repairing a stone wall. Even my podiatrist suggests magnets for foot pain to his patients.

Some of the links in that older thread may be dead. If so tell me and I'll find some others for you.
