| GAUSS- Unit of measurement of magnetic fields. |
The Earth was surrounded by a much stronger negative magnetic field than that which exists today. Scientists have been recording the strength of the Earth's magnetic field over the last 155 years. This decline has also been determined by measurement of a decrease of north-south orientation of magnetic deposits which have occurred at known times in history. 5,7,12 [Click on Number for Reference]

Necessary to Life....
| Early cosmonauts were found to have experienced up to 80% bone-calcium loss and muscle cramps when in space above the earth's magnetic field for expanded periods. |
We are all very much aware of our constant need for air, water, and food! However, the need for the Earth's magnetic force to maintain health was not recognized until the advent of modern space travel.
In addition, scientists have discovered that die-outs of higher vertebrates have occurred with magnetic field decline and reversals. This has been determined by studying core samples from the ocean floor. 2[Click on Number for Reference]
Historic Uses....
| Cleopatra is claimed to have worn a lodestone on her forehead to prevent aging. 1 |
| Famous Persian physician Ali Abbas described using magnetism to relieve spasms and gout-1000 A.D. |
| Galen, noted Greek physician, author, and educator referred to magnetism as an excellent purgative (laxative). 6 |
| Magnetic fields usage has been evident in industry safely for years. |
References to the early use of the force of magnetism in the healing arts are found in most civilizations of the world. The first usage is recorded by the Chinese in the book "Yellow Emperor's Book of Internal Medicine" (approx. 2000 B.C.). Reference is made to the use of magnetism in conjunction with the practices of acupuncture.1[Click on Number for Reference]
Ancient Hindu scriptures, Egyptian and Persian history, and Tibetan monk practices indicate therapeutic lodestone usage.
More modern contributions to scientific and medical knowledge of electrical and magnetic energy were made by William Gilbert, private physician to Queen Elizabeth l, Volta and by Galvani and Mesmer. Mesmer was particularly noted for successful treatment of a variety of ills in the mid 1700's.1[Click on Number for Reference]
Natural Magnetic Fields....
| A Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine is a valuable diagnostic tool for visualizing internal organs such as the brain, spine, and liver, etc. This machine uses up to 40,000 gauss. |
| Some respected scientists maintain alternating electromagnetic fields to be harmful. 4 |
The magnetic field produced by permanent magnets is a safe, natural energy source. There are no known harmful exposure levels and no limitations by governmental agencies.
Electromagnetic Fields....
| These fields are positive and negative and have an alternating
current frequency of 60 cycles/sec. This is 7.66 times too fast for the average body organ resonance frequency of 7.83 and can cause cell fatigue in time.4 |
Natural permanent magnetic fields are not to be confused with the alternating electromagnetic fields associated with high-tension electrical power lines. We are also bombarded daily with smaller amounts emanating from all the electrical conveniences with which we surround ourselves. A restored negative, permanent magnetic field can help counteract these effects.4[Click on Number for Reference]
Beginning of Modern Research...
| The external application of a magnetic field to the human body was found to alleviate the symptoms of "Magnetic Field Deficiency Syndrome".11 |
"Magnetic Field Deficiency Syndrome" was identified in Japan in the late 1950's. It is characterized by symptoms such as the following: Lack of Energy, Insomnia, Generalized Aches and Pains, Upper Back and Neck Stiffness, Frequent Headaches, Dizziness, Constipation, etc. These symptoms seem to closely correlate with our North American version-- "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome".
Japan Leads the Way...
| The manufacture and sale of magnetic therapeutic devices is now the 20th largest industry in Japan. |
In 1961,this research resulted in the approval for the manufacture and sale of magnetic therapeutic devices by the Japanese Minister of Health and Welfare.
| According to the Nikken Corporation, 30 million Japanese use a therapeutic device. |
Current Health-Related Uses...
| For relief of deep muscle pain, stiffness, arthritic symptoms and other related problems. |
| For healing of non-union fractures, the healing time increases dramatically. |

Noted Clinician, Physician and Lecturer...
William H. Philpott, M.D. -- Oklahoma
| Dr. Philpott has practiced medicine for over 40 years. |
| He has successfully treated over 7,000 patients with negative magnetic field therapy in the last 5 years. |
Dr. Philpott Lists Benefits of Magnetism...
| Conclusions of biomagnetic treatment are based on independent authoritative research as well as his own years of clinical experience and observations. |
The following is a partial list of benefits of negative magnetic field therapy, as summarized by Dr. Philpott:
