MAGNETS AND NATURAL THERAPY
By Peter Rose FSI

I have been a recipient, student and practitioner of natural medicine for over 30 years and during this time a level of wider public acceptance has grown up. I firmly believe that when ever possible, we should use natural health care. There are times when this is not practical; traumatic accidents, late discovery of an ailment, genetic disorders, etc.

So what are “natural” ways of treating the body? Each of us will have our own opinions of this. To me yoga, touch therapies and the use of magnets acupuncture etc; those all correct the balance of the flows of energy within the body but do not try to artificially obstruct these flows; are natural. While advocated by many experienced practitioners, I personally can not accept that a person drinking their own urine is natural. What my body rejects it does so because it does not want it, putting it back is un-natural, that is my personal view.

BALANCED STATE
The key to all natural health care is finding each individual persons “balanced state”.  We are individuals, what will restore, or maintain the healthy balance of one person will be wrong for another. Which is why there are so many different diet books, I am sure the advice given in each book worked for the author of that book but it does not follow that this advice will work for everybody else. Diet is part of balancing and so as each person is different it is not possible for the details of diet advice to be right for everybody. We also change. The comment of Lao Tzu- that the only constant thing in the universe is change- applies to our bodies, minds, spirits and emotions as well as the cosmos. So what will restore balance may not maintain it. What is “right” one day may not be “right” another day.  It is possible to give general advice- eat fresh fruit and vegetables, do exercise, breath properly etc. In such generalized terms the advice does apply to everybody, it is specifics that are individual.

RELIEVE THE PAIN

As one of the generalized bits of advice, I would say that what ever the problem you are faced with you should relive the pain first. Treating the cause is necessary and fundamental to rebalancing, but to expect any person to tolerate pain for long periods, while doing this, is unreasonable.

This is where magnets have such a huge and important duel use. They can treat the pain locally and aid the balance restoration in the overall energy system. They can have short term benefits and treat the longer tern cause as well
