Magnets can affect the body at both microscopic and at overall levels. If the magnets can be placed so that they  influence a  section of blood vessel from all sides,  that is the magnets surround the tube carrying the fluid flow, then the flow at that place will be improved locally and  there will be an improvement in the alignment of the molecules, of the blood  flowing through that section. 60 to 70% of body mass in humans is water and the magnetic fields ability to influence the flow of water can be seen all around us, from the ebb and flow of tide to the use of electro magnetic induction coils to soften water.

MAGNETIC FIELD
Magnetic fields interact with the structure of human body cells to cause changes to the processing of proteins, hormones and enzymes. The changes are caused by the effect the magnetic field has on the outer layer of a cell, which is a double layer of molecules with complex molecules sandwiched in this double layer. It is understood that some of these complex molecules serve as channels that help the transfer, across cell walls, of material. This is all at molecular level but  each minuscule effect adds up. It seems that magnetic influence in the human body is by two different physical effects, by directly affecting the alignment of molecules and by electro-magnetic induction within cell structures.  Electromagnetic induction is the process by which electricity is generated when a magnet is moved within a coil  of wire a small electric current is generated within that wire. The energy from the magnetic field causing vibration of electrons within the wire and this is electricity. 

PARADOX
One paradox of all this is that one of the basic laws of physics is that energy can not be created or destroyed, only transformed. The magnet does not loose its power however much the energy is taken up by other material  and this seems at odds with the laws of physics. The solution is that  the electricity is only generated when the magnet moves relative to the coil of wire and in order for the magnet to move there must be a supply of energy to create the movement. It is this move creating energy that is being transformed, leave the magnet it's self unchanged. How magnets create minute electrical currents in human body cells is more complex. In this case  the cell is providing the movement and the energy that is to be transformed into a  tiny electrical charge.
We then have two effects from magnets fields placed on the human body, one that aligns molecules in fluids and improves the flow of that fluid, i.e. blood and the other that causes very tiny electrical currents to occur within cells and this influences the transfer of material across the cells, which in turn improves the take up of substances into those cells.  There is also some  speculation that a magnetic field improves the
"ionic exchange" thus allowing waste products to leave a cell more efficiently. There are some who believe that magnets affect the chemical balance-- the pH balance-- within the body and thus affect the chemical changes and composition of cell structures but this is not accepted by most scientists as yet. Much more work remains to be done at research levels to determine why magnets have the beneficial effects that they do.
