The concept that something as simple as a magnet may help relieve pain and discomfort is perhaps difficult to accept. Nevertheless, several scientific studies support the use of magnets in the treatment of medical conditions.
There are countless reports of people who have found magnet therapy has relieved a variety of conditions including arthritis, menstrual cramps, headaches and carpal tunnel syndrome. It is not known for sure how magnets work. What is known, however, is that magnetic fields exist in all living things, including our own bodies, and some scientists believe that an imbalance in the body's field can lead to pain and disease.
It is thought that magnets may rebalance the body's energy, thereby restoring health and relieving pain. There is also some evidence that magnets may improve blood flow, helping with the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues.
In clinical practice, I have certainly witnessed several people do well with magnet therapy, usually in treating joint pain or migraine. On a general level it seems as though magnets are safe to use. However, if your mother has had a pacemaker fitted, then I'd advise against magnet therapy.
