Magnetic Therapy have been used in the international sports world for many years for
healing injuries due to sprains and repetitive strain. Due to its capability of quick healing it is ruling a major area in the world of sports medicine. Sometimes much kind of injuries has to be treated and healed as quickly as possible and magnet with its quick healing properties is employed in the area of injury to aid the sports person towards a faster recovery.
The increasing popularity and acceptance of bio magnetic therapy is based on two main factors. The increasing confirmatory scientific research conducted on the various healing properties of magnets and the absolute weight of communicative evidence.
Research conducted in using magnets for healing the areas of sprains and repetitive strain injury has come out with positive results. Research shows that magnets have an anti-inflammatory effect. How does it happen? Inflammation causes dilation of the blood vessels which is clinically termed as vasodilatation. Placing a magnet next to the skin will result in constriction of the blood vessels which is clinically called vasoconstriction which causes the opposite effect of vasodilatation thus reducing the cause of inflammation. Research also shows that magnetic therapy or use of magnetic
product as proposed by your therapist helps to maintain the ph balance which often gets imbalanced when you are injured or suffering from ill health. In such cases magnets speed up the migration of calcium ion to heal nerves and tissues. The theory that works behind the healing of the injured area explains that an increase in negative electrical potential which carries a negative charge is involved in the process of healing which is indicated as the North Pole by some researcher. Magnetic applications also increase blood circulations and nutrient carrying potency. Research has also been reported that
magnets also help to produce body's own natural pain killers called endorphins, when nerve fibers are subject to a magnetic field and also produce melatonin a hormone that promotes restful sound sleep. Although these effects has not been conclusively proved yet.
The different magnetic products available for sporting injuries that enhances the well-being and vitality of an individual is possible due to its faster recovery times, no drugs involved, safe and is without any side effects, minimal expert advice is required to use them, inexpensive and reusable. The growing interest from countries including Great Britain, Holland, Canada and the United States apart from Japan, China,India, Australia and Germany shows that though the theory behind the healing property of magnet is still not supported by the scientific community but its effects are felt.

Smoking Cessation
As you may already be aware, July 1st 2007 marks the introduction of a public smoking ban in England. With 1 in 4 people being a smoker and 75% of those people wanting to stop smoking, demand for smoking cessation services have never been so high. However, just as there are an increasing number of people wanting to quit smoking there are now also an increasing number of ways being offered to help them to achieve this.
According to an article published in the ?The New Scientist? in conjunction with the University of Iowa, Hypnotherapy is the single most effective method for Smoking Cessation. It showed that single session hypnosis increased a smoker's success chance by 1000% from 6% to 60%.
SUCCESS RATES FOR DIFFERENT SMOKING CESSATION METHODS:
? 60% - Single session Hypnosis
? 24% - Acupuncture
? 10% - Nicotine Replacement Therapy
? 6% - Willpower alone
As these figures clearly imply, nicotine addiction is not the main problem in stopping smoking. In fact, test show that nicotine can be out of your system in as little as three to four days, whilst other chemicals (about 4,000 in all) may take another four or five days.
So why is it that people can give up smoking for one, two or even six months and then drift back to cigarettes? The reason is simply that they have never overcome the Psychological habit of being a smoker.
The habit is lodged in the subconscious mind so that there is a constant desire for a cigarette. It is the nagging desire that this habit creates which will gradually wear the ex-smoker down, until in a moment of stress or weakness they give in and light that first cigarette.
Hypnotherapy is designed to overcome the Psychological addiction. Hypnosis allows the habit of being a smoker to be replaced with the habit of being a non-smoker. Hypnosis strengthens the desire and motivation of the person to stop smoking in exactly the same way that Hypnosis is
used by sportspeople to increase their motivation and performance.
Here's How Relaxation Relates to Pain Relief!

If you want to permanently eliminate pain from your life, you MUST first begin from complete relaxation.
Quite simply, relaxation and pain relief are related in this way...
When you completely relax:
=> Your body unwinds and releases habits of movement and positioning that initially created your pain; which then allows
=> Your body to return to your naturally pain-free state; and therefore
=> Your pain literally disappears.
So, let's briefly clarify what I mean by each of these amazingly simple steps:
The state of relaxation that is required is a deeper relaxation than you've probably ever experienced before. This is because, even when you think you are relaxed, e.g. when relaxing on a recliner chair, certain muscles in your body are still working to hold you in that position.
So, when I say "completely relaxed", I mean your entire body is relaxed simultaneously. All of your muscles and nervous system are completely relaxed all at the same time.
To achieve this deep state of relaxation, you need to position yourself such that every part of your body is totally aligned and supported -- aligned and supported to your body's naturally pain-free state of balance.
This means a position where there is zero pressure or force exerted onto any area of your body. All parts of your body are supported in their natural shape and angles. You are in your natural alignment.
This aligned position allows ALL of your muscles to completely unwind, release and relax ALL at the same time. This then allows ALL of your bones and joints to return to their most natural positions. Areas in your body that you have been holding out-of-alignment will return to their natural positions.
And so, as you spend time in this naturally aligned position, your body releases your core tensions, stresses and pains; and automatically adjusts and re-aligns itself internally.
As this automatic internal adjustment occurs, your body releases old habits of positioning and movement; and forms new habits that allows you to begin to move and hold yourself automatically in natural alignment and balance. Your body releases the old habits that cause your pain.
And your body naturally forms new habits that automatically keep you in your naturally pain-free state.
And as this occurs, your pain disappears permanently.
All of this beginning from a state of complete relaxation.
