The Office of Alternative Medicine of the National Institute of Health in
Washington, D.C., has just awarded over a million dollar grant to Ann Gill
Taylor, RN, Ph.D. at the University of Virginia, to study the effects of
magnets in chronic pain. Dr. Gill Joins a list of doctors and scientists
currently interested in this European phenomenon.

Prestigious centers such as John Hopkins, Baylor College of Medicine and
Massachusetts Institute of Technology are studying magnetic therapy.

I first heard of magnets when a longtime friend and hospital director
asked me to go to Dublin, Ireland in 1993 to meet Austin Darragh. MD, a
world renowned researcher, who had been using magnets to treat pain.
The joy of finding something so simple, yet so effective in helping people
relieve pain still fascinates me.

I have practiced for over twenty-four years and have never been as
impressed by a technology so simple and effective in helping arthritis,
back pain and even fibromyalgia (chronic fatigue). Just to name a few, as
safely and cost-effectively as unipole Cradletive) magnets.

I am convinced that it will soon be commonplace to treat headaches,
sports injuries and even allergies with magnets, and that managed care
will find it on the top of its list of worthwhile expenses.
