Tips For Care and Preservation of Magnetic Therapy Products

Magnets can hold an electomagnetic charge for a very long time.
If cared for, magnetic therapy magnets can continue to serve
their purpose for many years. Strong magnets of high quality
material will lose very little energy if stored properly,
perhaps a few gauss in 100 years. If stored improperly they can
discharge at a much faster pace. Example: It is not well to
leave any magnet attached to heavy steel because of discharge.
Heat can also accelerate discharge of most magnets, it's
probably wise to keep them from temps above 170 degrees
Farenheight. A magnets ability to retain its enery is directly
related to the material it is made of and how strongly it is
charged. Ceramic ferrite magnets and neodymiums hold their
electrons better than flexibles.

SAFE HANDLING of Magnets:
When stacking powerful magnets always slide them together from
the side. Example: If you have two neos, put them flat on a
surface a few inches apart with same polarity facing up, then
slowly slide them closer together. At a certain point they will
repel each other. Keep pushing them towards each other and let
one float up above the other slightly. They will then slide
together naturally. When stacking Comfort Covered Ceramic
Biomagnets, a slip sheet of thin cardboard should be placed
between them because the Velcro will make it hard to slide apart
for separation.

Magnet covers and materials may eventually become worn or
and torn. Replacement covers can be purchased for many of the
Polar Power Magnets. A warm water handwash and line dry is best
for cleaning.

Magnets should be stacked with like magnets, don't
leave a Super Neo attached to a ceramic, and keep it away from
the edge of flexible magnets because it can actually reverse
their polarity.

Neodymium (rare earth) magnets are compression molded and sealed
in a very thin layer of Nickel that is vulnerable to damage from
chipping. Acidity from the body can damage the Nickel plating.
Try to avoid direct contact with skin, a bandaid over skin works
good for this. A few coats of clear nail polish can help to
protect neodymiums, so if the magnet jumps out and clings to
something there's a much greater chance it wont break in half or
get chipped.

Perhaps one of the best health investments available today, Polar Power magnetic therapy products can keep on giving long after they are purchased if stored properly and handled carefully.
