Abstract
The use of magnetic fields as a therapeutic intervention dates back to antiquity and appears to be undergoing a resurgence. The use of magnets promises to provide a relatively cheap, safe and effective form of therapy, particularly in the treatment of pain and other chronic conditions. The scientific basis for this type of treatment is now well understood and it appears that very little basic or clinical research has been performed in this area. This paper describes how the personal experience of one individual led to the establishment of a company selling magnetic products and the documentation of a large number of anecdotal reports of success of this type of treatment.
