How does a magnet affect the human body? The influence of the magnetic field on the human body

MAGNETS AND MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF SUBSTANCE
The simplest manifestations of magnetism have been known for a very long time and are familiar to most of us. However, it was only relatively recently that it was possible to explain these seemingly simple phenomena on the basis of the fundamental principles of physics. There are two magnets different types. Some are the so-called permanent magnets, made from "hard magnetic" materials. Their magnetic properties are not related to the use of external sources or currents. Another type includes the so-called electromagnets with a core of "soft magnetic" iron. The magnetic fields they create are mainly due to the fact that the winding wire surrounding the core passes through electricity.
Magnetic poles and magnetic field. The magnetic properties of a bar magnet are most noticeable near its ends. If such a magnet is suspended from the middle part so that it can freely rotate in a horizontal plane, then it will take a position approximately corresponding to the direction from north to south. The end of the rod pointing north is called the north pole, and the opposite end is called the south pole. Opposite poles of two magnets attract each other, while like poles repel each other. If a bar of unmagnetized iron is brought near one of the poles of a magnet, the latter will temporarily become magnetized. In this case, the pole of the magnetized bar closest to the pole of the magnet will be opposite in name, and the far pole will be of the same name. The attraction between the pole of the magnet and the opposite pole induced by it in the bar explains the action of the magnet. Some materials (such as steel) themselves become weak permanent magnets after being near a permanent magnet or electromagnet. A steel rod can be magnetized by simply passing the end of a permanent magnet across its end. So, the magnet attracts other magnets and objects made of magnetic materials without being in contact with them. Such an action at a distance is explained by the existence in space around the magnet magnetic field. Some idea of ​​the intensity and direction of this magnetic field can be obtained by pouring iron filings on a sheet of cardboard or glass placed on a magnet. The sawdust will line up in chains in the direction of the field, and the density of the sawdust lines will correspond to the intensity of this field. (They are thickest at the ends of the magnet, where the intensity of the magnetic field is greatest.) M. Faraday (1791-1867) introduced the concept of closed induction lines for magnets. The lines of induction exit the magnet at its north pole into the surrounding space, enter the magnet at the south pole, and pass inside the material of the magnet from the south pole back to the north, forming a closed loop. The total number of lines of induction coming out of a magnet is called magnetic flux. The magnetic flux density, or magnetic induction (B), is equal to the number of induction lines passing along the normal through an elementary area of ​​unit size. Magnetic induction determines the force with which a magnetic field acts on a current-carrying conductor located in it. If the conductor through which the current I passes is located perpendicular to the lines of induction, then, according to Ampère's law, the force F acting on the conductor is perpendicular to both the field and the conductor and is proportional to the magnetic induction, the current strength and the length of the conductor. Thus, for the magnetic induction B, we can write the expression

Where F is the force in newtons, I is the current in amperes, l is the length in meters. The unit of magnetic induction is tesla (T)
(see also ELECTRICITY AND MAGNETISM).
Galvanometer. A galvanometer is a sensitive device for measuring weak currents. The galvanometer uses the torque generated by the interaction of a horseshoe-shaped permanent magnet with a small current-carrying coil (weak electromagnet) suspended in the gap between the poles of the magnet. The torque, and hence the deflection of the coil, is proportional to the current and the total magnetic induction in the air gap, so that the scale of the instrument is almost linear with small deflections of the coil. Magnetizing force and magnetic field strength. Next, one more quantity should be introduced that characterizes the magnetic effect of the electric current. Let us assume that the current passes through the wire of a long coil, inside which is located a magnetizable material. The magnetizing force is the product of the electric current in the coil and the number of its turns (this force is measured in amperes, since the number of turns is a dimensionless quantity). The magnetic field strength H is equal to the magnetizing force per unit length of the coil. Thus, the value of H is measured in amperes per meter; it determines the magnetization acquired by the material inside the coil. In a vacuum, the magnetic induction B is proportional to the magnetic field strength H:

Where m0 - so-called. magnetic constant, which has a universal value of 4pCh10-7 H/m. In many materials, the value of B is approximately proportional to H. However, in ferromagnetic materials, the relationship between B and H is somewhat more complicated (which will be discussed below). On fig. 1 shows a simple electromagnet designed to capture loads. The energy source is a DC battery. The figure also shows the field lines of the electromagnet field, which can be identified conventional method iron filings.



Large electromagnets with iron cores and a very large number of ampere-turns, operating in continuous mode, have a large magnetizing force. They create a magnetic induction up to 6 T in the gap between the poles; this induction is limited only by mechanical stresses, heating of the coils and magnetic saturation of the core. A number of giant electromagnets (without a core) with water cooling, as well as installations for creating pulsed magnetic fields, were designed by P.L. Kapitsa (1894-1984) in Cambridge and at the Institute of Physical Problems of the USSR Academy of Sciences and F. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. On such magnets it was possible to achieve induction up to 50 T. A relatively small electromagnet, producing fields up to 6.2 T, consuming 15 kW of electrical power and cooled by liquid hydrogen, was developed at the Losalamos National Laboratory. Similar fields are obtained at cryogenic temperatures.
Magnetic permeability and its role in magnetism. Magnetic permeability m is a value that characterizes the magnetic properties of the material. Ferromagnetic metals Fe, Ni, Co and their alloys have very high maximum permeabilities - from 5000 (for Fe) to 800,000 (for supermalloy). In such materials, at relatively low field strengths H, large inductions B occur, but the relationship between these quantities is, generally speaking, nonlinear due to the phenomena of saturation and hysteresis, which are discussed below. Ferromagnetic materials are strongly attracted by magnets. They lose their magnetic properties at temperatures above the Curie point (770°C for Fe, 358°C for Ni, 1120°C for Co) and behave like paramagnets, for which the induction B is proportional to it up to very high values ​​of the strength H - in exactly the same as in a vacuum. Many elements and compounds are paramagnetic at all temperatures. Paramagnetic substances are characterized by being magnetized in an external magnetic field; if this field is turned off, the paramagnets return to the non-magnetized state. The magnetization in ferromagnets is preserved even after the external field is turned off. On fig. 2 shows a typical hysteresis loop for a magnetically hard (high loss) ferromagnetic material. It characterizes the ambiguous dependence of the magnetization of a magnetically ordered material on the strength of the magnetizing field. With an increase in the magnetic field strength from the initial (zero) point (1), the magnetization proceeds along the dashed line 1-2, and the value of m changes significantly as the magnetization of the sample increases. At point 2, saturation is reached, i.e. with a further increase in the intensity, the magnetization no longer increases. If we now gradually reduce the value of H to zero, then the curve B(H) no longer follows the previous path, but passes through point 3, revealing, as it were, the "memory" of the material about the "past history", hence the name "hysteresis". Obviously, in this case, some residual magnetization is preserved (segment 1-3). After changing the direction of the magnetizing field to the opposite curve B (H) passes point 4, and the segment (1)-(4) corresponds to the coercive force that prevents demagnetization. A further increase in the values ​​(-H) leads the hysteresis curve to the third quadrant - section 4-5. The subsequent decrease in the value of (-H) to zero and then an increase in the positive values ​​of H will close the hysteresis loop through points 6, 7 and 2.



Magnetically hard materials are characterized by a wide hysteresis loop covering a significant area on the diagram and therefore corresponding to large values ​​of residual magnetization (magnetic induction) and coercive force. A narrow hysteresis loop (Fig. 3) is characteristic of soft magnetic materials such as mild steel and special alloys with high magnetic permeability. Such alloys were created in order to reduce energy losses due to hysteresis. Most of these special alloys, like ferrites, have a high electrical resistance, which reduces not only magnetic losses, but also electrical losses due to eddy currents.



Magnetic materials with high permeability are produced by annealing, which is carried out by holding at a temperature of about 1000 ° C, followed by tempering (gradual cooling) to room temperature. In this case, preliminary mechanical and thermal treatment, as well as the absence of impurities in the sample, are very significant. For transformer cores at the beginning of the 20th century. silicon steels were developed, the value of m of which increased with increasing silicon content. Between 1915 and 1920, permalloys (alloys of Ni with Fe) appeared with their characteristic narrow and almost rectangular hysteresis loop. Hypernic (50% Ni, 50% Fe) and mu-metal (75% Ni, 18% Fe, 5% Cu, 2% Cr) alloys are characterized by especially high values ​​of magnetic permeability m at low values ​​of H, whereas in perminvar (45 % Ni, 30% Fe, 25% Co) the value of m is practically constant over a wide range of changes in the field strength. Among modern magnetic materials, supermalloy should be mentioned - an alloy with the highest magnetic permeability (it contains 79% Ni, 15% Fe and 5% Mo).
Theories of magnetism. For the first time, the idea that magnetic phenomena are ultimately reduced to electrical ones arose from Ampère in 1825, when he expressed the idea of ​​closed internal microcurrents circulating in each atom of a magnet. However, without any experimental confirmation of the presence of such currents in matter (the electron was discovered by J. Thomson only in 1897, and the description of the structure of the atom was given by Rutherford and Bohr in 1913), this theory "faded". In 1852, W. Weber suggested that each atom of a magnetic substance is a tiny magnet, or a magnetic dipole, so that the complete magnetization of a substance is achieved when all individual atomic magnets are lined up in a certain order (Fig. 4b). Weber believed that molecular or atomic "friction" helps these elementary magnets to maintain their ordering despite the perturbing influence of thermal vibrations. His theory was able to explain the magnetization of bodies upon contact with a magnet, as well as their demagnetization upon impact or heating; finally, the "multiplication" of magnets was also explained when a magnetized needle or magnetic rod was cut into pieces. And yet this theory did not explain either the origin of the elementary magnets themselves, or the phenomena of saturation and hysteresis. Weber's theory was improved in 1890 by J. Ewing, who replaced his hypothesis of atomic friction with the idea of ​​interatomic confining forces that help maintain the ordering of the elementary dipoles that make up a permanent magnet.



The approach to the problem, once proposed by Ampere, received a second life in 1905, when P. Langevin explained the behavior of paramagnetic materials by attributing to each atom an internal uncompensated electron current. According to Langevin, it is these currents that form tiny magnets, randomly oriented when the external field is absent, but acquiring an ordered orientation after its application. In this case, the approximation to complete ordering corresponds to saturation of the magnetization. In addition, Langevin introduced the concept of a magnetic moment, equal for a separate atomic magnet to the product of the "magnetic charge" of the pole and the distance between the poles. Thus, the weak magnetism of paramagnetic materials is due to the total magnetic moment created by uncompensated electron currents. In 1907, P. Weiss introduced the concept of "domain", which became an important contribution to the modern theory of magnetism. Weiss imagined domains as small "colonies" of atoms, within which the magnetic moments of all atoms, for some reason, are forced to maintain the same orientation, so that each domain is magnetized to saturation. A separate domain can have linear dimensions of the order of 0.01 mm and, accordingly, a volume of the order of 10-6 mm3. The domains are separated by the so-called Bloch walls, the thickness of which does not exceed 1000 atomic dimensions. The "wall" and two oppositely oriented domains are shown schematically in Fig. 5. Such walls are "transition layers" in which the direction of the domain magnetization changes.



In the general case, three sections can be distinguished on the initial magnetization curve (Fig. 6). In the initial section, the wall, under the action of an external field, moves through the thickness of the substance until it encounters a defect crystal lattice which stops her. By increasing the field strength, you can make the wall move further, through middle section between dashed lines. If after that the field strength is again reduced to zero, then the walls will no longer return to their original position, so that the sample will remain partially magnetized. This explains the hysteresis of the magnet. At the end of the curve, the process ends with the saturation of the sample magnetization due to the ordering of the magnetization within the last disordered domains. This process is almost completely reversible. Magnetic hardness is exhibited by those materials in which the atomic lattice contains many defects that prevent the movement of interdomain walls. This can be achieved by mechanical and thermal processing, for example by compressing and then sintering the powdered material. In alnico alloys and their analogues, the same result is achieved by fusing metals into a complex structure.



In addition to paramagnetic and ferromagnetic materials, there are materials with so-called antiferromagnetic and ferrimagnetic properties. The difference between these types of magnetism is illustrated in Fig. 7. Based on the concept of domains, paramagnetism can be considered as a phenomenon due to the presence in the material of small groups of magnetic dipoles, in which individual dipoles interact very weakly with each other (or do not interact at all) and therefore, in the absence of an external field, they take only random orientations ( Fig. 7a). In ferromagnetic materials, within each domain, there is a strong interaction between individual dipoles, leading to their ordered parallel alignment (Fig. 7b). In antiferromagnetic materials, on the contrary, the interaction between individual dipoles leads to their antiparallel ordered alignment, so that the total magnetic moment of each domain zero(Fig. 7c). Finally, in ferrimagnetic materials (for example, ferrites) there is both parallel and antiparallel ordering (Fig. 7d), resulting in weak magnetism.



There are two convincing experimental confirmations of the existence of domains. The first of them is the so-called Barkhausen effect, the second is the powder figure method. In 1919, G. Barkhausen established that when an external field is applied to a sample of a ferromagnetic material, its magnetization changes in small discrete portions. From the point of view of the domain theory, this is nothing more than a jump-like advancement of the interdomain wall, which encounters individual defects that hold it back on its way. This effect is usually detected using a coil in which a ferromagnetic rod or wire is placed. If alternately bring to the sample and remove from it strong magnet , the sample will be magnetized and remagnetized. Jump-like changes in the magnetization of the sample change the magnetic flux through the coil, and an induction current is excited in it. The voltage that arises in this case in the coil is amplified and fed to the input of a pair of acoustic headphones. Clicks, perceived through the headphones, indicate an abrupt change in magnetization. To reveal the domain structure of a magnet by the method of powder figures, a drop of a colloidal suspension of a ferromagnetic powder (usually Fe3O4) is applied to a well-polished surface of a magnetized material. Powder particles settle mainly in places of maximum inhomogeneity of the magnetic field - at the boundaries of domains. Such a structure can be studied under a microscope. A method based on the passage of polarized light through a transparent ferromagnetic material has also been proposed. Weiss's original theory of magnetism in its main features has retained its significance to the present day, however, having received an updated interpretation based on the concept of uncompensated electron spins as a factor determining atomic magnetism. The hypothesis of the existence of an intrinsic moment of an electron was put forward in 1926 by S. Goudsmit and J. Uhlenbeck, and at present it is electrons as spin carriers that are considered as "elementary magnets". To clarify this concept, consider (Fig. 8) a free atom of iron - a typical ferromagnetic material. Its two shells (K and L), closest to the nucleus, are filled with electrons, with two on the first of them, and eight on the second. In the K-shell, the spin of one of the electrons is positive and the other is negative. In the L-shell (more precisely, in its two subshells), four out of eight electrons have positive spins, and the other four have negative spins. In both cases, the spins of the electrons within the same shell cancel out completely, so that the total magnetic moment is zero. In the M shell, the situation is different, because of the six electrons in the third subshell, five electrons have spins in one direction, and only the sixth in the other. As a result, four uncompensated spins remain, which determines the magnetic properties of the iron atom. (There are only two valence electrons in the outer N shell, which do not contribute to the magnetism of the iron atom.) The magnetism of other ferromagnets, such as nickel and cobalt, is explained in a similar way. Since neighboring atoms in an iron sample strongly interact with each other, and their electrons are partially collectivized, such an explanation should be considered only as a clear, but very simplified, scheme of the real situation.



The theory of atomic magnetism, based on the electron spin, is supported by two interesting gyromagnetic experiments, one of which was carried out by A. Einstein and W. de Haas, and the other by S. Barnett. In the first of these experiments, a cylinder of ferromagnetic material was suspended as shown in Fig. 9. If a current is passed through the winding wire, then the cylinder rotates around its axis. When the direction of the current (and hence the magnetic field) changes, it turns in the opposite direction. In both cases, the rotation of the cylinder is due to the ordering of the electron spins. In Barnett's experiment, on the contrary, a suspended cylinder, sharply brought into a state of rotation, is magnetized in the absence of a magnetic field. This effect is explained by the fact that during the rotation of the magnet a gyroscopic moment is created, which tends to rotate the spin moments in the direction of its own axis of rotation.



For a more complete explanation of the nature and origin of short-range forces that order neighboring atomic magnets and counteract the disordering effect of thermal motion, one should turn to quantum mechanics. A quantum mechanical explanation of the nature of these forces was proposed in 1928 by W. Heisenberg, who postulated the existence of exchange interactions between neighboring atoms. Later, G. Bethe and J. Slater showed that the exchange forces increase significantly with decreasing distance between atoms, but after reaching a certain minimum interatomic distance, they drop to zero.
MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF SUBSTANCE
One of the first extensive and systematic studies of the magnetic properties of matter was undertaken by P. Curie. He found that according to their magnetic properties, all substances can be divided into three classes. The first includes substances with pronounced magnetic properties, similar to those of iron. Such substances are called ferromagnetic; their magnetic field is noticeable at considerable distances (see above). Substances called paramagnetic fall into the second class; their magnetic properties are generally similar to those of ferromagnetic materials, but much weaker. For example, the force of attraction to the poles of a powerful electromagnet can pull an iron hammer out of your hands, and in order to detect the attraction of a paramagnetic substance to the same magnet, as a rule, very sensitive analytical balances are needed. The last, third class includes the so-called diamagnetic substances. They are repelled by an electromagnet, i.e. the force acting on diamagnets is directed opposite to that acting on ferro- and paramagnets.
Measurement of magnetic properties. In the study of magnetic properties, measurements of two types are most important. The first of these is the measurement of the force acting on the sample near the magnet; this is how the magnetization of the sample is determined. The second group includes measurements of "resonant" frequencies associated with the magnetization of matter. Atoms are tiny "gyroscopes" and in a magnetic field precess (like a normal spinning top under the influence of a torque created by gravity) at a frequency that can be measured. In addition, a force acts on free charged particles moving at right angles to the lines of magnetic induction, as well as on the electron current in a conductor. It causes the particle to move in a circular orbit whose radius is given by R = mv/eB, where m is the mass of the particle, v is its velocity, e is its charge, and B is the magnetic field strength. The frequency of such a circular motion is equal to


where f is measured in hertz, e is in coulombs, m is in kilograms, B is in teslas. This frequency characterizes the movement of charged particles in a substance in a magnetic field. Both types of motion (precession and motion in circular orbits) can be excited by alternating fields with resonant frequencies equal to the "natural" frequencies characteristic of a given material. In the first case, the resonance is called magnetic, and in the second - cyclotron (in view of the similarity with the cyclic motion of a subatomic particle in a cyclotron). Speaking about the magnetic properties of atoms, it is necessary to pay special attention to their angular momentum. The magnetic field acts on a rotating atomic dipole, trying to rotate it and set it parallel to the field. Instead, the atom begins to precess around the direction of the field (Fig. 10) with a frequency depending on the dipole moment and the strength of the applied field.



The precession of atoms cannot be directly observed, since all the atoms of the sample precess in a different phase. If, however, a small alternating field directed perpendicular to the constant ordering field is applied, then a certain phase relationship is established between the precessing atoms, and their total magnetic moment begins to precess with a frequency equal to the frequency of the precession of individual magnetic moments. The angular velocity of precession is of great importance. As a rule, this value is of the order of 1010 Hz/T for the magnetization associated with electrons, and of the order of 107 Hz/T for the magnetization associated with positive charges in the nuclei of atoms. circuit diagram installation for observing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is shown in fig. 11. The substance under study is introduced into a uniform constant field between the poles. If an RF field is then excited with a small coil around the test tube, resonance can be achieved at a certain frequency, equal to the precession frequency of all the nuclear "gyroscopes" of the sample. Measurements are similar to tuning a radio receiver to the frequency of a particular station.



Magnetic resonance methods make it possible to study not only the magnetic properties of specific atoms and nuclei, but also the properties of their environment. The point is that magnetic fields in solids and molecules are inhomogeneous, since they are distorted by atomic charges, and the details of the course of the experimental resonance curve are determined by the local field in the region where the precessing nucleus is located. This makes it possible to study the features of the structure of a particular sample by resonance methods.
Calculation of magnetic properties. The magnetic induction of the Earth's field is 0.5 * 10 -4 T, while the field between the poles of a strong electromagnet is of the order of 2 T or more. The magnetic field created by any configuration of currents can be calculated using the Biot - Savart - Laplace formula for the magnetic field induction, generated by the element current. The calculation of the field created by contours of various shapes and cylindrical coils is in many cases very complicated. Below are formulas for a number of simple cases. The magnetic induction (in teslas) of the field created by a long straight wire with current I (amps), at a distance r (meters) from the wire is


The induction at the center of a circular loop of radius R with current I is (in the same units):

A tightly wound coil of wire without an iron core is called a solenoid. The magnetic induction created by a long solenoid with the number of turns N at a point sufficiently remote from its ends is equal to

Here, NI/L is the number of amperes (ampere turns) per unit length of the solenoid. In all cases, the magnetic field of the current is directed perpendicular to this current, and the force acting on the current in the magnetic field is perpendicular to both the current and the magnetic field. The field of a magnetized iron rod is similar to the external field of a long solenoid with the number of ampere turns per unit length corresponding to the current in the atoms on the surface of the magnetized rod, since the currents inside the rod cancel each other out (Fig. 12). By the name of Ampere, such a surface current is called Ampère. The magnetic field strength Ha, created by the Ampere current, is equal to the magnetic moment of the unit volume of the rod M.



If an iron rod is inserted into the solenoid, then in addition to the fact that the solenoid current creates a magnetic field H, the ordering of atomic dipoles in the magnetized material of the rod creates magnetization M. In this case, the total magnetic flux is determined by the sum of the real and Ampere currents, so that B = m0(H + Ha), or B = m0(H + M). The ratio M/H is called the magnetic susceptibility and is denoted by the Greek letter c; c is a dimensionless quantity characterizing the ability of a material to be magnetized in a magnetic field.
The B/H value characterizing the magnetic properties
material is called the magnetic permeability and is denoted by ma, where ma = m0m, where ma is the absolute and m is the relative permeability, m = 1 + c. In ferromagnetic substances, the value of c can be very big values-up to 10 4-10 6. The value of c for paramagnetic materials is slightly greater than zero, and for diamagnetic materials it is slightly less. Only in vacuum and in very weak fields are the quantities c and m constant and independent of the external field. The dependence of the induction B on H is usually non-linear, and its graphs, the so-called. magnetization curves for different materials and even at different temperatures can differ significantly (examples of such curves are shown in Figs. 2 and 3). The magnetic properties of matter are very complex, and a thorough understanding of their structure requires a thorough analysis of the structure of atoms, their interactions in molecules, their collisions in gases, and their mutual influence in solids and liquids; the magnetic properties of liquids are still the least studied. - fields with strength Н?0.5=1.0 ME (the boundary is conditional).

The healing properties of magnets and the history of magnetotherapy

People have known about the healing properties of magnets since ancient times. The idea of ​​the influence of a magnetic field among our ancestors was formed gradually and was based on numerous observations. The first descriptions of what magnetotherapy gives to a person date back to the 10th century, when doctors used magnets to treat muscle spasms. Later they began to be used to get rid of other ailments.

Effect of magnets and magnetic field on the human body

The magnet is considered one of the most ancient discoveries made by people. In nature, it occurs in the form of magnetic iron ore. Since ancient times, the properties of a magnet have interested people. Its ability to cause attraction and repulsion made even the most ancient civilizations turn to this rock. Special attention as a unique natural creation. The fact that the population of our planet exists in a magnetic field and is subject to its influence, as well as the fact that the Earth itself is a giant magnet, has long been known. Many experts believe that the Earth's magnetic field has an exceptionally beneficial effect on the health of all living beings on the planet, while others are of a different opinion. Let's turn to history and see how the idea of ​​the impact of a magnetic field was formed.

Magnetism got its name from the city of Magnesiina-Meandre, located on the territory of modern Turkey, where deposits of magnetic iron ore were first discovered - a stone with unique properties to attract iron.

Even before our era, people had an idea about the unique energy of a magnet and a magnetic field: there was not a single civilization in which magnets would not be used in some form to improve human health.

One of the first objects for the practical application of the magnet was the compass. The properties of a simple oblong piece of magnetic iron suspended on a thread or attached to a cork in water were revealed. In this experiment, it turned out that such an object is always located in a special way: one of its ends points to the north, and the other to the south. The compass was invented in China around 1000 BC. e., and in Europe became known only from the XII century. Without such a simple, but at the same time unique magnetic navigation device, there would have been no great geographical discoveries of the 15th-17th centuries.

In India, there was a belief that the sex of the unborn child depends on the position of the heads of the spouses during conception. If the heads are located to the north, then a girl will be born, if to the south, then a boy will be born.

Tibetan monks, knowing about the effect of a magnet on a person, applied magnets to their heads to improve concentration and increase learning ability.

There are many other documented evidence of the use of a magnet in ancient india and Arab countries.

Interest in the influence of magnetic fields on the human body appeared immediately after the discovery of this unique phenomenon, and people began to attribute the most amazing properties to the magnet. It was believed that finely ground "magnetic stone" is an excellent laxative.

In addition, such properties of the magnet were described as the ability to cure dropsy and insanity, to stop various types of bleeding. In many documents that have survived to this day, recommendations are often contradictory. For example, according to some healers, the effect of a magnet on the body is comparable to that of a poison, while others believe it should, on the contrary, be used as an antidote.

Neodymium magnet: medicinal properties and impact on human health

The greatest influence on a person is attributed to neodymium magnets: they have chemical formula NdFeB (neodymium - iron - boron).

One of the advantages of such stones is the ability to combine small sizes and a strong magnetic field. For example, Neodymium magnet, which has a force of 200 gauss, weighs approximately 1 gram, and an ordinary iron magnet, which has the same force, weighs 10 grams.

Neodymium magnets have another advantage: they are quite stable and can retain their magnetic properties for many hundreds of years. The strength of the field of such stones decreases by about 1% in 100 years.

Around each stone there is a magnetic field, which is characterized by magnetic induction, measured in gauss. By induction, you can determine the strength of the magnetic field. Very often, the strength of the magnetic field is measured in Tesla (1 Tesla = Gauss).

The healing properties of neodymium magnets are to improve blood circulation, stabilize pressure, prevent migraines.

What does magnetotherapy give and how does it affect the body

History of magnetotherapy as a method of use healing properties magnets for medicinal purposes began about 2,000 years ago. In ancient China, magnetic therapy is even mentioned in the medical treatise of Emperor Huangdi. In ancient China, it was customary to believe that human health largely depends on the circulation in the body of the internal energy Qi, which is formed from two opposite principles - yin and yang. When the balance of internal energy was disturbed, a disease arose that could be cured by applying magnetic stones to certain points of the body.

As for magnetotherapy itself, many documents from the period of Ancient Egypt have been preserved, providing direct evidence of the use of this method to restore human health. One of the legends of that time tells about the unearthly beauty and health of Cleopatra, which she possessed due to the constant wearing of a magnetic tape on her head.

A real breakthrough in magnetotherapy happened in ancient Rome. In the famous poem by Titus Lucretius Cara "On the Nature of Things", written back in the 1st century BC. e., it is said: "It also happens that alternately the rock of iron can bounce off the stone or be attracted to it."

Both Hippocrates and Aristotle described the unique therapeutic properties of magnetic ore, and the Roman physician, surgeon and philosopher Galen revealed the analgesic properties of magnetic objects.

At the end of the 10th century, a Persian scientist described in detail the effect of a magnet on the human body: he assured that magnetotherapy can be used for muscle spasm and numerous inflammations. There is documentary evidence that describes the use of magnets to increase muscle strength, bone strength, reduce joint pain and improve the performance of the genitourinary system.

At the end of the 15th - beginning of the 16th centuries, some European scientists began to study magnetotherapy as a science and its application for medicinal purposes. Even the court physician of the English Queen Elizabeth I, who suffered from arthritis, used magnets for treatment.

In 1530, the famous Swiss doctor Paracelsus, having studied how magnetotherapy works, published several documents that contained evidence of the effectiveness of the magnetic field. He characterized the magnet with the words "king of all mysteries" and began to use different poles of the magnet in order to achieve certain results in treatment. Although the doctor was unaware of the Chinese concept of Qi, he also believed that a natural force (archaeus) could energize a person.

Paracelsus was sure that the influence of the magnet on human health is so high that it gives him additional energy. In addition, he noted the ability of archeus to stimulate the process of self-healing. Absolutely all inflammations and numerous diseases, in his opinion, are much better treated with a magnet than with conventional medicines. Paracelsus used magnets in practice in the fight against epilepsy, bleeding and indigestion.

How magnetotherapy affects the body and what it treats

At the end of the 18th century, the magnet began to be widely used to get rid of various diseases. The well-known Austrian doctor Franz Anton Mesmer continued research on how magnetotherapy affects the body. First in Vienna, and later in Paris, he quite successfully treated many diseases with the help of a magnet. He was so imbued with the issue of the impact of the magnetic field on human health that he defended his thesis, which was later taken as the basis for research and development of the doctrine of magnetotherapy in Western culture.

Based on his experience, Mesmer made two fundamental conclusions. The first was that the human body is surrounded by a magnetic field, which he called "animal magnetism". The very unique magnets that act on a person, he considered the conductors of this "animal magnetism." The second conclusion was based on the fact that the planets have a great influence on the human body.

The great composer Mozart was so amazed and delighted with Mesmer's successes in medicine that in his opera "Cosi fan tutte" ("Everyone does this") he sang this unique feature of the magnet's action ("This is a magnet, Mesmer's stone, which came from Germany, became famous in France ").

Also in the UK, members of the Royal Society of Medicine, which conducted research into the use of the magnetic field, discovered the fact that magnets can be effectively used in the fight against many diseases of the nervous system.

In the late 1770s, the French abbot Lenoble spoke about the cure of magnetotherapy, speaking at a meeting of the Royal Society of Medicine. He reported on his observations in the field of magnetism and recommended the use of magnets, taking into account the place of application. He also initiated the mass creation of magnetic bracelets and various kinds of jewelry from this material for recovery. In his writings, he considered in detail the successful results of the treatment of toothache, arthritis and other diseases, overexertion.

Why magnetotherapy is needed and how it is useful

After the Civil War in the United States (), magnetotherapy became no less popular than they turned to this method of treatment due to the fact that living conditions were far away from Europe. It has gained a particularly noticeable development in the Midwest. Basically, people are not the best, there were not enough professional doctors, which is why I had to self-medicate. At that time, a huge number of various magnetic agents with an analgesic effect were produced and sold. Many advertisements mentioned the unique properties of magnetic healing agents. For women, magnetic jewelry was the most popular, while men preferred insoles and belts.

In the 19th century, many articles and books described what magnetotherapy was for, and what its role was in the treatment of many diseases. For example, in a report by the famous French Salpêtrière hospital, it was said that magnetic fields have the property of increasing " electrical resistance in the motor nerves" and are therefore very useful in the fight against hemiparesis (one-sided paralysis).

In the 20th century, the properties of a magnet began to be widely used both in science (in the creation of various techniques) and in everyday life. Permanent magnets and electromagnets are located in generators that produce current and in electric motors that consume it. Many vehicles used the power of magnetism: a car, a trolley bus, a diesel locomotive, an airplane. Magnets are an integral part of many scientific instruments.

In Japan, the health effects of magnets have been the subject of much discussion and intense research. The so-called magnetic beds, which are used by the Japanese to relieve stress and charge the body with "energy", have gained immense popularity in this country. According to Japanese experts, magnets are good for overwork, osteochondrosis, migraine and other diseases.

The West borrowed the traditions of Japan. Methods for the use of magnetotherapy have found many adherents among European doctors, physiotherapists and athletes. In addition, given the usefulness of magnetic therapy, this method has received support from many American physiotherapists, such as the leading neurologist William Philpot of Oklahoma. Dr. Phil Pot believes that exposing the body to a negative magnetic field stimulates the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone, and thereby makes it more restful.

Some American athletes note the positive effect of the magnetic field on damaged spinal discs after injuries, as well as a significant reduction in pain.

Numerous medical experiments conducted at US universities have shown that the occurrence of joint diseases is due to insufficient blood circulation and disruption of the nervous system. If the cells do not enter nutrients in the right amount, this can lead to the development of a chronic disease.

How magnetotherapy helps: new experiments

In 1976, the famous Japanese doctor Nikagawa was the first to answer the question “how does magnetotherapy help” in modern medicine. He introduced the concept of "magnetic field deficiency syndrome". After a series of studies, the following symptoms of this syndrome were described: general weakness, increased fatigue, decreased performance, sleep disturbance, migraine, pain in the joints and spine, changes in the digestive and cardiovascular system (hypertension or hypotension), changes in the skin, gynecological dysfunctions. Accordingly, the use of magnetotherapy allows you to normalize all these conditions.

Of course, the lack of a magnetic field does not become the only cause of these diseases, but it makes up a large part of the etiology of these processes.

Many scientists continued to make new experiments with magnetic fields. Perhaps the most popular of these was the experiment with a weakened external magnetic field or its absence. At the same time, it was necessary to prove the negative impact of such a situation on the human body.

One of the first scientists who set up such an experiment was the Canadian researcher Jan Crane. He considered a number of organisms (bacteria, animals, birds) that were in a special chamber with a magnetic field. It was much smaller than the Earth's field. After the bacteria spent three days in such conditions, their ability to reproduce decreased by 15 times, neuromotor activity in birds began to manifest much worse, and serious changes in metabolic processes began to be observed in mice. If the stay in a weakened magnetic field was longer, then irreversible changes occurred in the tissues of living organisms.

A similar experiment was carried out by a group of Russian scientists led by Lev Nepomnyashchikh: mice were placed in a chamber closed from the Earth's magnetic field with a special screen.

A day later, tissue decomposition began to be observed. The cubs of the animals were born bald, and subsequently they developed many diseases.

To date, a large number of such experiments are known, and everywhere similar results are observed: the decrease or absence of a natural magnetic field contributes to a serious and rapid deterioration in health in all organisms subjected to research. Numerous types of natural magnets are also now actively used, which are formed naturally from volcanic lava containing iron and atmospheric nitrogen. Such magnets have been in use for thousands of years.

Magnets and their effect on humans

According to the Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Director of the Ukrainian Institute of Human Ecology Mikhail Vasilyevich Kurik, the life expectancy of a person is associated with the strength of the earth's magnetic field. Sad to say, the earth's magnetic field is weakening. The physicist's calculations show that the earth's magnetic field 2000 years ago was 2 times stronger.

According to scientists in 2012 there will be a change in the magnetic poles of the earth. They change their position at an extremely high rate of up to 1 degree per week.

Human magnetic field

Just as our planet has a magnetic field, so a person has his own magnetic field, which is formed due to the flow of blood through the vessels. As you know, in addition to other components, the blood contains metal ions, as a result of which the blood flow in the vessels forms a magnetic field. Since all parts of the body and organs are supplied with vessels, the magnetic field is formed everywhere.

In a healthy body, the external and internal magnetic field is in full interaction. If the magnetic field environment weakens - this entails a decrease in the magnetic field in the circulatory system. This leads to a violation of blood circulation, the flow of oxygen to tissues and organs worsens, which leads to the development of various diseases. That is why it is important to strengthen and strengthen your magnetic field.

Application of magnets

Magnets are the most serious thing in today's conditions of demagnetization of consciousness. There are magnets different forms, sizes, in the form of bracelets, electromagnetic glasses, magnetic funnels, magnetic insoles, magnetic combs, magnetic belts.

Your stomach hurts! They put one magnet under the back of the other on the stomach, lay down for ten minutes, restored the magnetic field and continued to work. In the morning you have breakfast, put the magnets under your feet, under one foot plus under the other minus, in the evening you sat down to watch TV and held the magnets in your hands.

It is also useful to wear bracelets, and even better, alternate them with bracelets made of other materials.

Magnetic funnels. They can be purchased at any pharmacy. We passed the water through a magnetic funnel, here is the finished magnetic water for you.

Apply these simple methods, and you will be healthy.

What an informative article! Give me the biggest and most powerful magnet, I'll be a plus to drive blood into my groin! No Viagra will be needed 😀

But in essence ... There is no creature here - just an advertisement for fools who will buy incomprehensibly what and will harm their body, and maybe others.

All this nonsense with the healing properties of magnets is similar to the nonsense where they claim that there is life on other planets. Provide the facts, gentlemen!

I want to buy a pillow containing several small magnets, but I doubt their usefulness. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Good afternoon, I have been magnetizing tap water for many years, the result is that the leaves on the white geranium have stopped rusting. I skip for myself tap water through a magnet having the shape of half a radius, then in a clean jar I arrange a magnetic storm - clockwise rotation as a result, after two or 3 days, a precipitate that is difficult to clean off falls out. We pour this water into a teapot and drink it.

There is a destruction of the formula of water.

If anyone is interested, write.

Sincerely, Russian Electrical Engineer

And why destroy the formula of water?

Human blood is saturated with iron. When using a magnet, be very careful. Where do you need to send the blood? The + sign repels blood, the - sign attracts. How much this is done depends on your alkaline balance. And such magnets as shown in the picture cannot be used for treatment. For treatment, pieces of iron ore are used (from magnetic anomalies), where it is clearly visible on one side of the plate +, on the other side of the plate -.

This is a stick with two ends.

The issue has not been sufficiently explored.

Even 20 years ago, experiments were carried out on the effect of magnetized water on all kinds of vegetable and fruit plants. A lot of various water magnetizing devices appeared.

Plants grew faster, bloomed earlier, and fruited profusely compared to controls. But even before they faded and ceased to exist.

So, draw a conclusion.

Do you want to be guinea pigs? Use and enrich science.

Valery, I grew cucumbers and watered them with magnetized water, and so they grew and bore fruit from spring to frost. I did not plant plants, but as soon as I planted a seed in the spring until late autumn, it grew and bore fruit. So draw your own conclusions.

The best magnet that is always with you and never gets lost is your own magnetism. This is the magnetism of untwisted chakras working at full strength. This is the magnetism of strong thoughts and the magnetism of balanced emotions.

From the depths of antiquity, people know and subconsciously remember the significance of magnetism, and therefore they turned their attention to mineral magnets, but, unfortunately, they forgot about the magnet of the Spirit.

I use magnets thanks an interesting article I studied magnetotherapy for a long time it was interesting

Scientists need to be trusted, but they need to be verified. Sixteen years ago, I met two ladies predicting the end of the world in eight years due to the formation of holes in the ionized layer of the atmosphere. They talked about getting ready. Both with doctoral degrees, with works, with proofs, with mathematical calculations. Undertook an intensified attack on the US Congress and the UN. In this case, the bureaucracy played a positive role - it did not take any action.

Very interesting. I have magnet clips. Probably, they can also be used, but I put them away in the box.

I think it is possible. Start with a few minutes (15-30), watch the sensations. If you feel improvement wear and stay healthy.

Thank you for the information on the effect of the magnetic field on humans. I want to add the following: there is a company that specializes in the production of jewelry with built-in magnets. These magnetic decorations will improve your health, but they are very expensive. In addition to jewelry, the company offers a magnetic orthopedic pillow for relaxation and night sleep and sticks for water magnetization. The information about magnetic funnels interested me. This is a good alternative to the network company's magnetic sticks.

I myself use a magnetic funnel, a simple and very practical thing.

I didn't know that.

Literal translation: "I didn't know that."

Effect of magnets on the human body.

1 post

That's not full list diseases, in the treatment of which magnetotherapy has a positive effect:

Upper back tension;

Lower back pain;

Pain from carpal tunnel syndrome.

Every part of the body depends on blood. Blood flows throughout the body into arteries, veins, and capillaries. The blood is transported from the heart to the lungs where it takes oxygen and then passes it on to all organs and tissues to provide the necessary oxygen and nutrients the body needs to survive.

MAGNETOTHERAPY. The influence of a magnet on the human body.

Magnetotherapy is the treatment of diseases with the help of magnetic fields. Methods of magnetotherapy in our country are recognized as medical. They are widely used in public and private medical institutions Russia. These methods are comfortable for the patient and bring a tangible positive effect.

It can be said that magnetotherapy is safe and inexpensive method. It is non-addictive and has no side effects. Very often, this method is able to adequately replace various medicines.

The human body is created and functions under the constant influence of the earth's geomagnetic field. However, according to scientists, the current generation is experiencing a colossal lack of natural magnetic exposure (2000 years ago the geomagnetic field was twice as strong) and an overdose of harmful autogenous magnetic radiation (from computers, household appliances, cell phones, etc.).

Magnetotherapy nourishes the body, energizes it, helps to remove the influence of the so-called "white noise" and has a therapeutic and prophylactic effect, including helping to overcome weather sensitivity.

Under the influence of a magnetic field, weak currents of charged particles of blood and lymph arise, the physicochemical properties of the body's water systems, the speed of biochemical and biophysical processes change.

Magnetic therapy is also effective in the fight against aging: it improves blood circulation, supports cellular metabolism, increases the production of enzymes and the excretion of waste products.

Unlike a medical procedure, no foreign substances enter the body during magnetotherapy. Regular use is harmless and no side effects have been reported.

The main effects and results of the use of magnetic jewelry presented on our website

1- Improving the blood circulation of the body.

The circulatory system provides the body with the substances necessary for life. For the delivery of oxygen to organs, tissues and cells, erythrocytes or red blood cells, which have a natural negative charge, are responsible. Thus, when they move in the blood, due to the charge, they repel each other and the result is optimal blood movement and a normal supply of oxygen and nutrients at the cellular level.

It should be noted that wearing magnetic bracelets causes the stabilization of blood pressure, even in people with chronic problems in this regard.

Under the action of a magnetic field, the permeability of cell membranes increases, which activates all metabolic processes at the cellular level.

Due to the action of a magnetic field, adhesion (gluing to the walls of blood vessels) and aggregation (gluing to each other) of platelets is significantly reduced. This effect greatly reduces the ability of platelets to form clots in blood vessels.

With magnetic therapy, there is a decrease in pressure in the system of deep and subcutaneous veins, arteries. At the same time, the tone of the walls of blood vessels increases, changes in the elastic properties and bioelectrical resistance of the walls of blood vessels occur.

2- Under the influence of magnetic fields, an increase in vascular and epithelial permeability occurs, a direct consequence of which is the acceleration of the resorption of edema and the introduced medicinal substances. Thanks to this effect, magnetotherapy has found wide application in injuries, wounds and their consequences.

The 3-peripheral nervous system reacts to the action of a magnetic field by reducing the sensitivity of peripheral receptors, which causes an analgesic effect, and by improving the conduction function, which has a beneficial effect on the restoration of the functions of injured peripheral nerve endings by improving the growth of axons, myelination and inhibition of the development of connective tissue in them. The effect of pain relief in magnetic therapy is also determined by the fact that under the conditions of a magnetic field in the body, the synthesis of endorphins increases - these are specific hormones that have a powerful analgesic effect. The action of a magnetic field on the nervous system is characterized by a change in its conditioned reflex activity, physiological and biological processes. This occurs due to the stimulation of inhibition processes, which explains the occurrence of a sedative effect and the beneficial effect of the magnetic field on sleep and emotional stress.

Magnetotherapy significantly improves memory, which is explained by a full-fledged neural connection for high-quality information transfer, which requires high conductivity. With the passage of time and the deposition of toxins, the neural connection weakens, and an enhanced magnetic field helps to restore it. Magnetic therapy in the head area is effective for insomnia and neuroses.

4-Under the influence of magnetic fields, macromolecules (enzymes, nucleic acids, proteins, etc.) experience charges and a change in their magnetic susceptibility. In this connection, the magnetic energy of macromolecules can exceed the energy of thermal motion, and therefore magnetic fields, even in therapeutic doses, cause orientational and concentration changes in biologically active macromolecules, which affects the kinetics of biochemical reactions and the rate of biophysical processes.

Under the influence of magnetic fields, orientational restructuring of liquid crystals is observed, which form the basis of the cell membrane and many intracellular structures. The ongoing orientation and deformation of liquid crystal structures (membranes, mitochondria, etc.) under the influence of a magnetic field affect the impermeability, which plays an important role in the regulation of biochemical processes and the performance of their biological functions.

5- Under the action of a magnetic field in the tissues, the content of sodium ions (Na) decreases with a simultaneous increase in the concentration of potassium ions (K), which is evidence of a change in the permeability of cell membranes.

Under the influence of a magnetic field, the biological activity of magnesium (Mg) increases. This leads to a decrease in the development of pathological processes in the liver, heart, muscles.

Under the influence of magnetic fields, a quick and long-lasting effect of cleaning blood vessels from calcium and cholesterol accumulations is observed. This is an additional positive effect of the overall restoration of the circulatory system and metabolism in the body.

It is assumed that the action of the magnet enhances the flow of energy to the area of ​​acupuncture points, increases local blood flow, expands capillaries, activates energy metabolism, affects metabolism and has a bactericidal effect.


It is difficult to find a sphere in which there would be no use for magnets. Educational toys, useful accessories and sophisticated industrial equipment are just a few of the truly vast range of uses. At the same time, few people know how magnets are arranged and what is the secret of their attractive force. To answer these questions, you need to dive into the basics of physics, but don't worry - the dive will be short and shallow. But after getting acquainted with the theory, you will know what the magnet consists of, and the nature of its magnetic force will become much clearer to you.


The electron is the smallest and simplest magnet.


Any substance consists of atoms, and atoms, in turn, consist of a nucleus, around which positively and negatively charged particles - protons and electrons - revolve. The subject of our interest is electrons. Their movement creates an electric current in the conductors. In addition, each electron is a miniature source of a magnetic field and, in fact, the simplest magnet. But in the composition of most materials, the direction of movement of these particles is chaotic. As a result, their charges balance each other. And when the direction of rotation of a large number of electrons in their orbits coincides, then a constant magnetic force arises.


Magnet device


So, we figured out the electrons. And now we are coming close to answering the question of how magnets are arranged. In order for a material to attract an iron piece of rock, the direction of the electrons in its structure must match. In this case, the atoms form ordered regions called domains. Each domain has a pair of poles: north and south. A constant line of movement of magnetic forces passes through them. They enter the south pole and exit the north. This arrangement means that the north pole will always attract the south pole of another magnet, while like poles will repel.

How does a magnet attract metals?


The magnetic force does not act on all substances. Only some materials can be attracted: iron, nickel, cobalt and rare earth metals. An iron piece of rock is not a natural magnet, but when exposed to a magnetic field, its structure is rearranged into domains with north and south poles. Thus, the steel can be magnetized and retain its changed structure for a long time.



How magnets are made


We have already figured out what a magnet consists of. It is a material in which the directionality of the domains coincides. A strong magnetic field or electric current can be used to impart these properties to the rock. At the moment, people have learned how to make very powerful magnets, the force of attraction of which is dozens of times greater than its own weight and persists for hundreds of years. It's about about rare-earth supermagnets based on neodymium alloy. Such products weighing 2-3 kg can hold objects weighing 300 kg or more. What does a neodymium magnet consist of and what causes such amazing properties?



Simple steel is not suitable for successfully manufacturing products with a powerful force of attraction. This requires a special composition that will allow you to organize the domains as efficiently as possible and maintain the stability of the new structure. To understand what a neodymium magnet is made of, imagine a metal powder of neodymium, iron and boron, which will be magnetized by a strong field using industrial plants and sintered into a rigid structure. To protect this material, it is coated with a durable galvanized sheath. This production technology makes it possible to obtain products of various sizes and shapes. In the assortment of the World of Magnet online store you will find a huge variety of magnetic products for work, entertainment and everyday life.

People have known about the healing properties of magnets since ancient times. The idea of ​​the influence of a magnetic field among our ancestors was formed gradually and was based on numerous observations. The first descriptions of what magnetotherapy gives to a person date back to the 10th century, when doctors used magnets to treat muscle spasms. Later they began to be used to get rid of other ailments.



Effect of magnets and magnetic field on the human body

The magnet is considered one of the most ancient discoveries made by people. In nature, it occurs in the form of magnetic iron ore. Since ancient times, the properties of a magnet have interested people. Its ability to cause attraction and repulsion made even the most ancient civilizations pay special attention to this rock as a unique natural creation. The fact that the population of our planet exists in a magnetic field and is subject to its influence, as well as the fact that the Earth itself is a giant magnet, has long been known. Many experts believe that the Earth's magnetic field has an exceptionally beneficial effect on the health of all living beings on the planet, while others are of a different opinion. Let's turn to history and see how the idea of ​​the impact of a magnetic field was formed.

Magnetism got its name from the city of Magnesiina-Meandre, located on the territory of modern Turkey, where deposits of magnetic iron ore were first discovered - a stone with unique properties to attract iron.

Even before our era, people had an idea about the unique energy of a magnet and a magnetic field: there was not a single civilization in which magnets would not be used in some form to improve human health.

One of the first objects for the practical application of the magnet was the compass. The properties of a simple oblong piece of magnetic iron suspended on a thread or attached to a cork in water were revealed. In this experiment, it turned out that such an object is always located in a special way: one of its ends points to the north, and the other to the south. The compass was invented in China around 1000 BC. e., and in Europe became known only from the XII century. Without such a simple, but at the same time unique magnetic navigation device, there would have been no great geographical discoveries of the 15th-17th centuries.

In India, there was a belief that the sex of the unborn child depends on the position of the heads of the spouses during conception. If the heads are located to the north, then a girl will be born, if to the south, then a boy will be born.

Tibetan monks, knowing about the effect of a magnet on a person, applied magnets to their heads to improve concentration and increase learning ability.

There are many other documented evidence of the use of the magnet in ancient India and the Arab countries.

Interest in the influence of magnetic fields on the human body appeared immediately after the discovery of this unique phenomenon, and people began to attribute the most amazing properties to the magnet. It was believed that finely ground "magnetic stone" is an excellent laxative.

In addition, such properties of the magnet were described as the ability to cure dropsy and insanity, to stop various types of bleeding. In many documents that have survived to this day, recommendations are often contradictory. For example, according to some healers, the effect of a magnet on the body is comparable to that of a poison, while others believe it should, on the contrary, be used as an antidote.

Neodymium magnet: medicinal properties and impact on human health

The greatest impact on humans is attributed to neodymium magnets: they have the chemical formula NdFeB (neodymium - iron - boron).

One of the advantages of such stones is the ability to combine small sizes and a strong magnetic field. For example, a neodymium magnet with a force of 200 gauss weighs approximately 1 gram, while an ordinary iron magnet with the same force weighs 10 grams.

Neodymium magnets have another advantage: they are quite stable and can retain their magnetic properties for many hundreds of years. The strength of the field of such stones decreases by about 1% in 100 years.

Around each stone there is a magnetic field, which is characterized by magnetic induction, measured in gauss. By induction, you can determine the strength of the magnetic field. Very often, the strength of the magnetic field is measured in Tesla (1 Tesla = 10,000 Gauss).

The healing properties of neodymium magnets are to improve blood circulation, stabilize pressure, prevent migraines.

What does magnetotherapy give and how does it affect the body

The history of magnetotherapy as a method of using the healing properties of magnets for medicinal purposes began about 2000 years ago. In ancient China, magnetic therapy is even mentioned in the medical treatise of Emperor Huangdi. In ancient China, it was customary to believe that human health largely depends on the circulation in the body of the internal energy Qi, which is formed from two opposite principles - yin and yang. When the balance of internal energy was disturbed, a disease arose that could be cured by applying magnetic stones to certain points of the body.

As for magnetotherapy itself, many documents from the period of Ancient Egypt have been preserved, providing direct evidence of the use of this method to restore human health. One of the legends of that time tells about the unearthly beauty and health of Cleopatra, which she possessed due to the constant wearing of a magnetic tape on her head.

A real breakthrough in magnetotherapy happened in ancient Rome. In the famous poem by Titus Lucretius Cara "On the Nature of Things", written back in the 1st century BC. e., it is said: "It also happens that alternately the rock of iron can bounce off the stone or be attracted to it."

Both Hippocrates and Aristotle described the unique therapeutic properties of magnetic ore, and the Roman physician, surgeon and philosopher Galen revealed the analgesic properties of magnetic objects.

At the end of the 10th century, a Persian scientist described in detail the effect of a magnet on the human body: he assured that magnetotherapy can be used for muscle spasm and numerous inflammations. There is documentary evidence that describes the use of magnets to increase muscle strength, bone strength, reduce joint pain and improve the performance of the genitourinary system.

At the end of the 15th - beginning of the 16th centuries, some European scientists began to study magnetotherapy as a science and its application for medicinal purposes. Even the court physician of the English Queen Elizabeth I, who suffered from arthritis, used magnets for treatment.

In 1530, the famous Swiss doctor Paracelsus, having studied how magnetotherapy works, published several documents that contained evidence of the effectiveness of the magnetic field. He characterized the magnet with the words "king of all mysteries" and began to use different poles of the magnet in order to achieve certain results in treatment. Although the doctor was unaware of the Chinese concept of Qi, he also believed that a natural force (archaeus) could energize a person.

Paracelsus was sure that the influence of the magnet on human health is so high that it gives him additional energy. In addition, he noted the ability of archeus to stimulate the process of self-healing. Absolutely all inflammations and numerous diseases, in his opinion, are much better treated with a magnet than with conventional medicines. Paracelsus used magnets in practice in the fight against epilepsy, bleeding and indigestion.

How magnetotherapy affects the body and what it treats

At the end of the 18th century, the magnet began to be widely used to get rid of various diseases. The well-known Austrian doctor Franz Anton Mesmer continued research on how magnetotherapy affects the body. First in Vienna, and later in Paris, he quite successfully treated many diseases with the help of a magnet. He was so imbued with the issue of the impact of the magnetic field on human health that he defended his thesis, which was later taken as the basis for research and development of the doctrine of magnetotherapy in Western culture.

Based on his experience, Mesmer made two fundamental conclusions. The first was that the human body is surrounded by a magnetic field, which he called "animal magnetism". The very unique magnets that act on a person, he considered the conductors of this "animal magnetism." The second conclusion was based on the fact that the planets have a great influence on the human body.

The great composer Mozart was so amazed and delighted with Mesmer's successes in medicine that in his opera "Cosi fan tutte" ("Everyone does this") he sang this unique feature of the magnet's action ("This is a magnet, Mesmer's stone, which came from Germany, became famous in France ").

Also in the UK, members of the Royal Society of Medicine, which conducted research into the use of the magnetic field, discovered the fact that magnets can be effectively used in the fight against many diseases of the nervous system.

In the late 1770s, the French abbot Lenoble spoke about the cure of magnetotherapy, speaking at a meeting of the Royal Society of Medicine. He reported on his observations in the field of magnetism and recommended the use of magnets, taking into account the place of application. He also initiated the mass creation of magnetic bracelets and various kinds of jewelry from this material for recovery. In his writings, he considered in detail the successful results of the treatment of toothache, arthritis and other diseases, overexertion.

Why magnetotherapy is needed and how it is useful

After the American Civil War (1861-1865), magnetotherapy became as popular as people turned to this method of treatment due to the fact that living conditions were far away from Europe. It has gained a particularly noticeable development in the Midwest. Basically, people are not the best, there were not enough professional doctors, which is why I had to self-medicate. At that time, a huge number of various magnetic agents with an analgesic effect were produced and sold. Many advertisements mentioned the unique properties of magnetic healing agents. For women, magnetic jewelry was the most popular, while men preferred insoles and belts.

In the 19th century, many articles and books described what magnetotherapy was for, and what its role was in the treatment of many diseases. For example, in a report by the famous French Salpêtrière hospital, it was said that magnetic fields have the property of increasing "electrical resistance in the motor nerves" and are therefore very useful in the fight against hemiparesis (one-sided paralysis).

In the 20th century, the properties of a magnet began to be widely used both in science (in the creation of various techniques) and in everyday life. Permanent magnets and electromagnets are located in generators that produce current and in electric motors that consume it. Many vehicles used the power of magnetism: a car, a trolley bus, a diesel locomotive, an airplane. Magnets are an integral part of many scientific instruments.

In Japan, the health effects of magnets have been the subject of much discussion and intense research. The so-called magnetic beds, which are used by the Japanese to relieve stress and charge the body with "energy", have gained immense popularity in this country. According to Japanese experts, magnets are good for overwork, osteochondrosis, migraine and other diseases.

The West borrowed the traditions of Japan. Methods for the use of magnetotherapy have found many adherents among European doctors, physiotherapists and athletes. In addition, given the usefulness of magnetic therapy, this method has received support from many American physiotherapists, such as the leading neurologist William Philpot of Oklahoma. Dr. Phil Pot believes that exposing the body to a negative magnetic field stimulates the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone, and thereby makes it more restful.

Some American athletes note the positive effect of the magnetic field on damaged spinal discs after injuries, as well as a significant reduction in pain.

Numerous medical experiments conducted at US universities have shown that the occurrence of joint diseases is due to insufficient blood circulation and disruption of the nervous system. If the cells do not receive nutrients in the right amount, this can lead to the development of a chronic disease.

How magnetotherapy helps: new experiments

In 1976, the famous Japanese doctor Nikagawa was the first to answer the question “how does magnetotherapy help” in modern medicine. He introduced the concept of "magnetic field deficiency syndrome". After a series of studies, the following symptoms of this syndrome were described: general weakness, increased fatigue, decreased performance, sleep disturbance, migraine, pain in the joints and spine, changes in the digestive and cardiovascular system (hypertension or hypotension), changes in the skin, gynecological dysfunctions. Accordingly, the use of magnetotherapy allows you to normalize all these conditions.

Of course, the lack of a magnetic field does not become the only cause of these diseases, but it makes up a large part of the etiology of these processes.

Many scientists continued to make new experiments with magnetic fields. Perhaps the most popular of these was the experiment with a weakened external magnetic field or its absence. At the same time, it was necessary to prove the negative impact of such a situation on the human body.

One of the first scientists who set up such an experiment was the Canadian researcher Jan Crane. He considered a number of organisms (bacteria, animals, birds) that were in a special chamber with a magnetic field. It was much smaller than the Earth's field. After the bacteria spent three days in such conditions, their ability to reproduce decreased by 15 times, neuromotor activity in birds began to manifest much worse, and serious changes in metabolic processes began to be observed in mice. If the stay in a weakened magnetic field was longer, then irreversible changes occurred in the tissues of living organisms.

A similar experiment was carried out by a group of Russian scientists led by Lev Nepomnyashchikh: mice were placed in a chamber closed from the Earth's magnetic field with a special screen.

A day later, tissue decomposition began to be observed. The cubs of the animals were born bald, and subsequently they developed many diseases.

To date, a large number of such experiments are known, and everywhere similar results are observed: the decrease or absence of a natural magnetic field contributes to a serious and rapid deterioration in health in all organisms subjected to research. Numerous types of natural magnets are also now actively used, which are formed naturally from volcanic lava containing iron and atmospheric nitrogen. Such magnets have been in use for thousands of years.
