MagnetRX® Magnetic Acupressure Patches - 3,500 Gauss Ultra Strength Magnetic Patches - Acupressure Magnetic Plaster (20 Pack)

I bought these as my usual ones don't appear to be available any more, and these are the strongest I've seen. I had really bad nerve pain between my upper thigh and lower back. So I put three of these on at the worst pain points. The pain was almost gone within 12 hours and completely gone by the day after that. . Normally, if I don't have magnets the pain lasts a number of days, and I can barely move. I put them on, on July 30th and they are still on now, 12th August. I'll probably leave them on until they start peeling off. I put them on after cleaning the skin with an alcohol wipe and made sure the skin was dry before applying them. I have showered numerous times and they're still stuck fast. I'm really pleased that they can be re-used with a new bit of plaster. But I'll be sure to check which side has got to go to the plaster and which to the skin. I've got a permanent marker in case the red indicator line that's on them comes off. I have plenty of magnets now, so I think they're good value for money, especially as they are re-usable.

I have been using these magnets on and off for some time. I have tried others but they are not as effective probably because they are not strong enough. They are fiddly to apply but usually stay on well. The plaster does irritate my skin after a while but this can take up to three weeks. Then I remove them and leave the skin to breathe for a few days before I replace them. I would not like to be without these now.

Great strong little magnets. The sticky discs are brilliant. I had to change them after 7 days as they started getting dirty but were still stuck fast. If you need to buy replacement sticky pads then get them from here as there are some terrible replacements from other sellers. I looked on line for magnetic therapy and look for the best place to put the magnets depending on what you need them for. I noticed a difference and need to buy some more.

Edit: seller got in touch in response to my review and were very helpful in refunding me and apologising for my skin reaction. They are strong effective magnets so if your skin can tolerate them i would recommend as they did work for pain relief hence i bought twice as i really wanted to use them as knew they were strong and effective for pain relief just not tolerated by my skin unfortunately. I don't know how they can call them hypoallergenic. I wear gold and gold plated jewellery with no problems but within a day of wearing the magnets they start to itch and reveal red lumps where the magnet was touching the skin. Like another reviewer, even after removing the plasters these lumps continue to develop and blister looking like nasty insect bites and took weeks to disappear. I've given the magnets a go on a few occassions incase it was a '1 off' and even bought 2 different packs but same nasty skin reaction every time. My reaction is only where the magnet was, not the sticky plaster itself.

Good product and they work great. I applied 4 to my Shoulder Joint and 3 on either side of my Neck. They helped to relive the pain and discomfort within a day or so. The plasters stayed stuck for a good few days even after a couple of showers. The problem is a that a few came unstuck from the plasters straight out of the packet and I was unable to tell which side is which because the South "marking* was only a small sticker with a red line that stayed stuck to the plasters, the magnets are not physically scored to be able to tell the difference afterwards unless you saw which side was stuck to the plasters and mark it yourself straight away.

They work , really thought they wouldn't.

I normally wear a magnet bracelet, and this has always worked well and with no irritation. I had the MagnetRX plasters on for 36hrs - so well within the limits recommended. I would mention that the photos show my skin 60hrs after removing the magnets. The lumps have gone through stages of looking angry like boils, to what I have now…..which is a horrendous itching sensation all around the area and three raised red sore areas. I would mention that I had no irritation from the actual round plaster and when I took them off, I initially thought I just had some indentation marks on my skin from the magnet / but over the last two days I’ve had to use hydrocortisone to settle the itching and inflammation as well as antihistamine to try and ease the itching. I’ve not had any reaction to anything like this before, not in earrings/jewellery etc, so this is unusual. Unfortunately, I can’t say whether the magnets worked or not - but they’re definitely not for me. I would add that the company have been very helpful in assisting when i contacted them with my concerns! Their service has been excellent and it’s clear the reaction I had is quite rare

Great delivery very fast they are easy to place as due to their size you can fix them anywhere the pain is precisely great that you can reuse them and they say they do not lose power only got them yesterday so have not used them for even 24 hrs will see how they work or if they work and re-review them in a few days watch this space
