Something about your conclusion about the Nikken test doesn't make sense. If
the blood passing the Nikken, or any magnet, is somehow affected so that it
travels to the other hand and causes the observed warming, why didn't it warm
the entire arm and the entire body as it circulated through the body to the
other hand. Blood does not flow directly from one arm to the opposite hand.
It circulates throughout the body. That is why the only thing that does
makes sense is that the radiating magnetic field is causing the right hand to
warm up in the theramagnet sequence. There is no difference to the human
body between being near a strong magnetic field or wearing the magnet causing
the magnetic field, except for a slight difference in field strength measured
at the skin surface. Touching the magnet does not create some kind of magic.
That is why magnets have worked when worn on the outside of one's clothing.


Though I don't know what actually caused the other hand to warm up, I suspect
something else occurred. Possibly the other hand was used to hold the magnet
in place for part of the time and thus had a reaction or the magnet had been
held in that hand before being applied to the other elbow, etc.
