Magnetic back belt

Lower back pain is an extremely common symptom that occurs with various pathologies of the spinal column and internal organs. For hernias, radiculitis, bruises and sprains, you can use a magnetic belt to treat your back. By using this product, it is possible to speed up recovery, eliminate pain and improve overall well-being.

Operating principle

The operating principle of the product is based on the effect of a magnetic field on the human body. Due to magnetic radiation, it is possible to relieve inflammation, improve microcirculation and cell nutrition, and eliminate swelling. The action is explained by the fact that due to magnetic influence, electric currents arise in the cells, which in turn affect the physicochemical properties of the body’s water systems and the speed of biochemical and biophysical processes.

Also, using a belt allows you to warm up the affected area. The dense fabric of the product has fixing properties and supports the lumbar muscles. By tightening the lower back, it is possible to significantly reduce the load on the back.

Important! Wearing a magnetic belt has virtually no negative effect, but it is recommended to consult a specialist before using it.

Operating principle of a magnetic corrector

A corset with magnets maintains the correct position of the spinal column. The corrector creates a magnetic field that returns natural tone to muscle tissue and increases blood flow. As a result, biological processes are stabilized and pain disappears.

The magnetic posture corrector is capable of solving the following problems::

Correction of posture.
Reduces pain symptoms.
Improves blood circulation.
Strengthens the back muscles.
Normalizes metabolic processes.

The magnetic field, of course, will not correct the shape of the spine, but it will speed up the restoration of spinal function.

Magnetic influence manifests itself as follows:

Relieves inflammation. The damaged tissue in the parts of the spine exposed to magnets is restored.
Water molecules are magnetized, which causes the formation of ions that can reduce the negative effects of toxins.
Blood vessels dilate. This accelerates the flow of nutrients into the skin.
Magnets charge hydrogen ions, which destroy oxidants. A large accumulation of peroxide radicals negatively affects human health.
Tissue swelling is reduced.
Magnets stimulate active points, thereby relieving spasms and also calming the nerves.

The device significantly improves the condition of the spine, aligning posture and improving blood flow.

Features of care

The service life of orthopedic belts depends on many factors, the main one of which is the material used in the manufacture of the product. But an equally important factor is the correct care of the belt, because if you treat it carelessly, then you should not count on long-term service. Despite the fact that many models of orthopedic belts can be washed in an automatic machine, it is still recommended to do this manually. Of course, before washing, all the stiffeners and various plates must be removed, and the Velcro with fasteners must be fastened.

Types of belts with magnets for the back

Products are divided into several types. Classification is carried out according to the material of execution and additional properties. The following types of products are distinguished:

magnetic heating;
tourmaline;
corsetry.

To choose the right support belt, you need to clearly define your goals and objectives. If you need to securely fix your back and relieve stress from your muscles, it is recommended to choose magnetic corsets.

Method of influence

One of the parameters by which the type of magnetic product is determined is the method of exposure to the affected area. Both purely magnetic and combined belts are popular. For example, to enhance the effect, products with tourmaline crystals and magnetic inserts can be used. They have a broader effect on the lower back and muscles. Tourmaline has an ionizing effect, which helps to recover faster from various diseases of the spinal column.

By manufacturing method

Therapy can be carried out with a variety of therapeutic belts. As a rule, most of them are manufactured in industrial conditions using modern materials. You can also find handmade products that may differ in additional properties or individual shape. Tightening options do a great job of maintaining posture.

Belts are sold by a fairly large number of companies. When choosing, first of all you need to pay attention to the properties of the product. The creation method also needs to be studied when choosing a high-quality product.

By composition

A classic magnetic belt is created from the following components:

cotton fabric;
adhesive tape;
magnetic inserts.

The orthopedic version has a stiffer fabric that allows you to securely fix the lower back. For a warming effect, the belt can be partially made from sheep wool.

Important! The quality of materials directly affects the durability of the product. To treat your back, you need to wear the product for a long period of time.

What is a magnetic posture corrector?

Magnetic therapy is an alternative treatment method that is often used in orthopedics. Therefore, for problems with the spine, magnetic correctors began to be used. Wearing a corset reduces swelling, reduces pain in the spine and normalizes the functioning of the nervous system.

The magnetic posture corrector is a simple design. This is a belt with Velcro that can be adjusted. The corset contains 12 magnets that perform important functions. They are located along the lower back and along the spinal column.

Magnetic correctors contain magnets placed along the spine

The product is usually made of nylon, which is elastic and durable. These features help fix the back in a normal position.

The magnetic field created is small, only 800 gauss . This is quite enough to reduce pain and relieve muscle inflammation.

The product helps align the spine, although it does not affect bone tissue. Magnetic correctors are made of thin material and do not hinder movement.

How to choose the right one

To choose the right treatment belt, you must adhere to the following rules:

pay attention to the size of the product;
choose products taking into account the individual characteristics of the disease;
carefully study contraindications (some models may have their own list of prohibitions for wearing).

The main parameter when choosing is the size of the magnetic belt. It fits the waist circumference. It is extremely important that the product does not squeeze the stomach, but at the same time fits tightly enough. Each manufacturer labels their product differently. To select, it is recommended to first measure your waist circumference, and then compare it with the markings of the belt.

There are also elastic universal corsets that are suitable for most people with a normal build. This option should be chosen when ordering remotely, when it is impossible to pre-try on the product.

If the product is selected incorrectly, its effectiveness will be reduced.

Various warming and compression magnetic products should be purchased in specialized stores. Before starting treatment with the purchased product, it is recommended to consult with a specialist and include exercise therapy and physiotherapy in the treatment regimen.

What are the contraindications for use?

Despite the large number of advantages and indications, not everyone can use an orthopedic corset. Let's consider the main contraindications:

recovery period after some surgical operations;
diseases of the digestive system (squeezing internal organs with a corset can lead to serious complications);
renal failure;
development of dermatological diseases (skin inflammation, infection, etc.);
individual intolerance to the material used in the manufacture of the belt, or allergies.

The doctor must take all these contraindications into account when planning a course of therapy. Ignoring recommendations may lead to additional disorders in the body.

The cost of the product depends on many factors (number of magnetic inserts, composition, dimensions and materials used). On average, the price for a therapeutic belt with magnets is about 1000-1500 rubles.

Most products have a textile closure with Velcro, which allows you to adjust the degree of girth

It is advisable to make purchases in stores where you can try on the product. When ordering online, it is recommended to choose universal options that will not be too small or large.

Approximate cost of popular correctors

The price of a magnetic corrector depends on the type and functions of the model. You should only purchase a corset at a pharmacy or specialty store. But before purchasing, you should definitely consult with an orthopedist, who will recommend the model most suitable for the existing pathology.

Products with a compression effect allow you to maintain normal intra-abdominal pressure when working with heavy loads.

Types of correctors and features of their use

Posture correctors are divided according to the functions they perform, as well as the intensity of the impact.

They are divided into the following types:

Soft models. They are intended for the prevention and treatment of the disease in the initial stage.
Semi-rigid. These models exert quite a lot of pressure on the spine and are used in the treatment of moderate spinal column deformities.
Hard correctors. Used for advanced scoliosis.

Types of structures:

Elastic - secures the shoulder joints and upper body.
Magnetic - magnets are used to improve the health of the spine.
Electronic - a device is installed under the collarbone, which will react to the incorrect position of the spine.

Before using a posture corrector, you should familiarize yourself with the rules for wearing such a product.:

Familiarize yourself with the general rules for using orthopedic corsets. It is advisable to wear them in the morning, when the muscles are in a relaxed state.
At first, the device is worn for no more than 30 minutes. Wearing time increases gradually and reaches 6 hours a day.
The corrector is used for no more than six months.
The greatest effect is achieved when the back muscles experience a static load, which means the person eats and works almost motionless.
The use of a corset cannot be ruled out during dynamic work if there is discomfort in the spine (prolonged standing or walking).
Naturally, the reclinator is removed before going to bed.
During heavy physical activity, it also needs to be removed.

The corrector is secured with special straps and secured with Velcro . The first time the belts are tensioned, an orthopedist must carry out the tensioning. For better results, the length of the corset loops is gradually shortened. This is done after 4 days to increase tension .

Reviews

Most people who used a magnetic belt were able to achieve the desired result.

I wore a belt with sewn-in magnets for 3 months. I was diagnosed with a hernia. After the treatment, I managed to get rid of the pain, and it no longer bothered me, however, when I began to lead an active life, the unpleasant sensation returned. Thanks to this product, I was able to return to my normal rhythm of life. At the same time as wearing it, I did exercise therapy and strengthened my back muscles.

Olga, 43 years old

The doctor advised me to purchase a medical corset to prevent vertebral displacement. I consider my back to be quite healthy, but before I started actively wearing the magnetic belt, I periodically encountered a little pain after a day of work. After wearing the belt for a month, the problem was completely resolved.

Main conclusions

A magnetic corset will help you make your posture straight and your back healthy. However, it should be understood that an orthopedic device will not be effective on its own; it is used as part of complex therapy. In addition, it is important that your attending physician selects a suitable model for you after diagnosing the existing disorders. It is important to choose the correct size of the product so that it does not cause discomfort while wearing. And it is also necessary to follow the rules for wearing it, which the doctor will tell you about. It is not recommended to buy a magnetic corrector on your own, even for prevention, as it has some contraindications and can worsen the patient’s well-being.
