We know they work because acupuncturists and other healers around the world have successfully been using magnets in their practices. This is hardly unprecedented – medical history is replete with examples of successful treatments and healing modalities that have been used before we have had theories to explain their mechanism of action. Under the tutelage of Dr. Norman Suhu of New York City (and a member of the Somadome Research Advisory Board) acupuncturists have been using them around the world in lieu of needles, planning them on acupuncture points and experienced tremendous success, often getting better results than with needles. A number of acupuncturists have abandoned needles in favor of magnets. Other medical and healing practitioners have also been experimenting with magnets. Somadome is looking for a research partner to run a double-blind test on a Somadome with magnets and a Somadome without magnets to assess the efficacy of the magnets in impacting users’ states of health and well being.
