"Magnetic bracelets reduce the pain of osteoarthritis." Those are the findings of a scientifically peer reviewed clinical trial published in the British Medical Journal (Dec 17 04) The trial used specially designed 'Bioflow' magnets which use Central Reverse Polarity™ made by Cornish company Ecoflow Plc.

Local, Tim Jenkins, an Independent Distributor for Ecoflow, today spoke of his "delight but not surprise" at the findings. Tim said: "It's wonderful to be able to point to some independent scientific research that supports what I and many customers have believed for years - these Bioflow magnets really do work." He added: "Complementary therapies normally have to rely on anecdotal evidence so this research is a big step forward. I hope it will encourage more people to be open minded enough to give these very special magnets a try."

Tim knows from his own personal experience how the Bioflow magnets can help as he was a sufferer of the chronic pain arising from kidney stones and renal colic, generally regarded as the most painful pain level known. He said. "I would usually have had to ring the doctor for pethidine or morphine, but using Bioflow products reduced the pain level by at least 65% so that I can actually work through it". He was so impressed that Tim decided to sign up with Cornish company Ecoflow as an Independent Distributor. He now hopes that other local people will contact him to find out more about the unusual therapy.

Tim said: "I am convinced that Bioflow could help a lot of people and animals. In fact Ecoflow Plc is so confident that it offers a 90 day money back guarantee. I personally have seen so many benefits in various symptoms and conditions that I have no hesitation in recommending that people give it a try."

The clinical trial was funded by the Arthritis Research Campaign. Dr Tim Harlow who led it said: "Our results did show benefit to patients with arthritis of the hip or knee." He went on to stress: "It seems that not all magnets are the same in this context and we can only comment on the particular bracelets we studied." He also cautioned that people should not suddenly discontinue use of their usual treatments without first discussing it with their own doctor.

Since Ecoflow first launched its Bioflow magnet in 1995, the weight of anecdotal evidence supporting its usefulness has continued to mount. The company has amassed files full of letters from people extolling the benefits of Bioflow and Tim has numerous stories of his own about people who have benefited from the unusual treatment.

Tim said: "The Bioflow is special because besides being very strong it uses Central Reverse Polarity™ technology. This was specifically designed to mimic the beneficial effects of professional electromagnetic units often used in hospitals." He added: "Not all magnets are the same and people can only be sure they are getting a genuine Bioflow if they buy from a registered Ecoflow Independent Distributor."

Ecoflow's chairman Paul Markland said: "This news is wonderful for arthritis suffers but it just confirms what we at Ecoflow have believed for years!" He emphasised: "We do not want to run the risk of inferior products being sold to people in pain on the back of this research. Anyone can contact our head office in Saltash for details of a registered Ecoflow Independent Distributor near them. They will then be certain that they are buying the genuine article carrying all the Ecoflow guarantees."
Please note: There is no substitute for sound medical advice and Ecoflow always recommends consulting your own doctor. People with heart pacemakers or other similar implants should not use Bioflow magnets.
