Magnetic therapy

A study was done in Seattle, Washington, in which 30 people were randomized to receive either magnetic treatment with a device called an Enermed or to wear a placebo device that delivered no treatment. The participants wore the real or fake device for two months and did not know whether they were receiving the magnetic impulses or not. Those wearing the real device reported improved bladder control, cognitive function, mobility, and vision as well as reduced fatigue and muscle spasm. The study is small but intriguing.
