Almost no magnets will even penetrate the skin. They will do NOTHING to the blood. Mythbusters did a show about as I recall. A MRI uses BUNCHES (the technical term) of energy and magnetic fields that are huge (more techno terms) and that blood is never aligned or affected. The entire body does not feel it at all. A magnet on your wrist or in your shoes is as useful as a Unicorn statue.

External frequencies of sound sure can affect the body, and so will light. Hearing loss and sunburn are real but they are not related to a silly bracelet.

It is just as useful as the copper bracelets. Pure placebo. Nothing else.
