Biomagnetism is a scientifically grounded therapy that works with the body's natural systems rather than treating symptoms in isolation. By applying magnets to specific points on the body, this therapy aims to enhance the body's natural flow of energy and promote well-being. This makes it an excellent complementary treatment for individuals seeking a natural, effective way to support their health and vitality.
At The School of Biomagnetism and Bioenergetics, we teach how this holistic therapy can be used to help people feel more balanced, relaxed, and energised, supporting their overall wellness journey.
The body is made up of electromagnetic fields, which play a vital role in maintaining the body’s overall health. These electromagnetic fields can become imbalanced due to a range of factors, including stress, poor diet, illness, infection and environmental influences. When the body’s energy is misaligned, it can lead to discomfort, illness, and diminished vitality.
Biomagnetism works by using magnets to influence these energy fields. By applying magnets at specific points on the body, practitioners can help restore energy balance, enhance blood flow, and stimulate the body's natural healing mechanisms. Research has shown that magnetic fields can influence cellular function, support the body’s detoxification processes, and even enhance the immune system.
While still a relatively new therapy to many, the principles behind Biomagnetism have been validated by decades of research in the fields of bioenergetics and cellular biology.
Every cell in the body has a charge due to the movement of ions (charged particles) across cell membranes. These ions, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, play a vital role in many physiological processes, including nerve transmission, muscle contraction, and the regulation of cell function. This means that the body’s health and functioning depend on the precise balance and movement of these ions.Magnets have a direct effect on the movement of charged particles. When magnetic fields are applied to the body, they influence the electrical charges within cells and tissues, encouraging ion flow and altering the electrical activity in the body. This interaction is at the heart of how Biomagnetism works.
The human body is a highly conductive system, and the application of magnetic fields can influence the behaviour of ions within the tissues. For example, negative magnetic fields are believed to help attract positively charged ions like calcium, while positive magnetic fields may encourage the movement of negatively charged ions. By influencing the movement of ions, magnets can support various physiological processes:
Improved Circulation: Magnetic fields can help stimulate the flow of blood by influencing the movement of charged particles in the blood, which may increase oxygen delivery to tissues and promote the removal of waste products. This effect is thought to be particularly helpful for reducing symptoms of poor circulation, such as cold hands and feet.
Cellular Function: The movement of ions is crucial for the function of cells, particularly nerve and muscle cells. Magnetic fields can help optimise the function of ion channels in cell membranes, which may improve the ability of cells to respond to stimuli and enhance overall cellular health.
Inflammation Reduction: Magnetic fields can also influence the movement of ions in the body’s inflammatory response. By encouraging the movement of certain ions, magnets may help to reduce inflammation and the associated pain, especially in muscles and joints.
In a Biomagnetism session, magnets are strategically applied to specific areas of the body to support the body’s natural healing processes. Therapeutic-grade magnets—which are high-quality, specialised magnets designed for use in therapeutic settings—are used to influence the movement of ions and promote balance within the body’s systems.
A positive and negative magnet are applied to different areas of the body. These magnets are carefully placed to encourage the flow of charged particles and help restore balance to the affected areas. By applying magnets with the appropriate polarity, the practitioner aims to bring areas of the body that may be experiencing excess or insufficient energy back into equilibrium.
The areas where the magnets are applied are identified using muscle testing, a technique that helps determine which points on the body are out of balance. Muscle testing involves gently applying pressure to muscles and observing the body’s response to identify areas of weakness or tension. This technique allows the practitioner to pinpoint the specific polarities (positive and negative areas) that need attention, ensuring that the treatment is personalised and focused on restoring harmony.
Magnets are placed over the identified points, with the positive magnet generally applied to areas where there is excess energy, and the negative magnet used on areas with insufficient energy. This carefully targeted approach helps optimise the body’s ion flow, improving circulation, reducing tension, and supporting overall health.
Biomagnetism is a non-invasive and holistic approach to supporting the body’s natural biological processes. Unlike some other therapies that target specific symptoms or conditions, Biomagnetism works by improving the functioning of cells, tissues, and circulation, encouraging the body’s natural healing mechanisms to take place.
Because Biomagnetism is focused on biological mechanisms, it is a scientifically grounded therapy that works with the body's natural systems, rather than treating symptoms in isolation. This makes it an excellent complementary treatment for individuals seeking a natural, gentle way to support their health and vitality.
Bioenergetics is a holistic approach to understanding and working with the body's energy systems, focusing on how emotional, mental, and physical states influence overall health and well-being. It involves the energetic scanning of the body to identify imbalances that may be affecting a person's health, vitality, and emotional state.
During the course, we look at the body not just from a physical perspective but from an
energetic standpoint, recognising the influence of emotions, thought patterns, and external energies on the body's natural state of balance.
Energetic Scanning: One of the key elements of Bioenergetics is
energetic scanning. When first learning Biomagnetism, each of the locations in the body is checked using a magnet. Once you learn Bioenergetics, you can check these using energetic intention instead.
Energy & Emotions: This process helps identify how emotions and other energies might be impacting the physical body. Emotional blockages, such as unprocessed trauma or chronic stress, can disrupt the flow of energy within the body, leading to physical discomfort, fatigue, or illness
Career Opportunities: As more people seek natural therapies for their well-being, there is a growing demand for skilled practitioners of Biomagnetism. Training in this field can open new opportunities in the wellness industry.
Energetic Perspective of Health: We look at the body as a network of
interconnected energies, each system and organ influencing and being influenced by others. By asking questions of the body and muscle testing, we can dig deeper into what may be underlying someone's symptoms.
