Hi,

> Can you tell us what type of magnotherapy you are using, traditional
'North pole for healing', or the newer "multipole" techniques.

I'm using the north pole of a 4" x 6" x 1" brick magnet. The magnet
is placed under a pillow that my fractured led rests on. As I move my
foot around, the change in magnetic flux also induces minute
electrical currents within the cell tissue.

I'm in the process of winding a flat spiral coil for inducing
electromagnetic pulses. I actually have a dozen or so coils wound in
different formations, but I just received a batch of flat magnet wire.
Flat wire is supposed to increase the efficiency of the coil.

I would be leery of using a multipole technique. I've built magnetic
rotors with multiple poles before. When a north pole and south pole
are put side by side, the flux from one magnet completely neutralizes
the flux of the next magnet. There are no free lines of flux
available for extending beyond the magnet. In order for the magnet to
have any effect, the flux lines have to be free and extend away from
the magnet.

The references are excellent. I have read a few of them before, but
most were new to me. I've archived the message for my surgeon, in
case he is interested.

What techniques have you used for magnetic healing?
