CRAMP - POOR CIRCULATION & MAGNETS - By Peter Rose FSI
Cramp, that odd sensation generally known as "pins and needles", coldness in fingers and toes and numbness in localized areas are all symptoms of poor circulation.
A medical check up, to ensure that this poor circulation is not due to a problem with the heart or
blood vessels, is the first step. This is very important in all cases but particularly when there is
a sudden numbness in a localized area.
Stress is often the root cause of poor circulation but poor circulation can also be a family, i.e. inherited, problem. Good levels of exercise are important and the use of generous amounts of root
ginger and garlic in the diet will be beneficial in the long term.
POOR CIRCULATION
If you suffer from poor circulation then take extra care when you are cold. Do not try to do sudden movements, particularly when under load, (that is when the muscles are likely to be over-stretched or
strained) in any way. If the circulation is poor, it becomes even more important to ensure the
quality of the blood and its ability to carry oxygen and nutrients is the best that can be achieved.
This is where magnets, diet and exercise come in.
Poor circulation results in low energy levels and in muscles that are weak and painful. Yoga helps
with releasing tense and restricted joints and muscles, and so frees up the circulation.
The spot magnets and wraps that have built in magnets, available from Magnetic Therapy Ltd, can
be used to improve poor circulation and sluggish blood flow. Magnets, placed to encircle a limb
between the area most affected and the heart, improve blood flow and so reduce the effects of
poor circulation.

I can only offer advice of a general nature as real diagnosis without seeing a person is almost impossible. If you really want to know more about how to use Magnetic Therapy then enroll for the on line course shown on Magnetic Therapy Ltd. web site.
