I'm the worlds greatest sceptic when it comes to magnetic products. Some
decades ago I developed fairly severe shoulder pains and, more or less
as a last resort after getting no help from doctors or physiotherapists,
tried a magnetic bracelet. Within hours the pains were much reduced, and
they were gone in a day. Physicists will have no difficulty in thinking
of a couple of possible physiological mechanisms. I can only imagine
that my theorising was sufficient to trigger a placebo response.
