Dangers of Magnetic Field Therapy
- Children and pregnant women should not use magnetic field therapy because the effects of magnetic therapy on children and pregnant women remains unknown.
- Patients with metal implants, like pacemakers, should avoid magnetic therapy because the magnets used in magnetic therapy can disrupt the function of such implants.
- Magnets contain positive and negative poles. Utilizing positive poles in magnetic field therapy should only be done by professionals because long term exposure to positive poles can be harmful.
- Magnetic therapy alone is inefficient in treating serious conditions, like cancer and depression. Consult a doctor about what other treatments you should be using with magnetic field therapy.
- Rare side effects of magnetic therapy include lightheadedness, vomiting, and delayed wound healing.
