How to Use Magnetic Field Therapy for Cancer Patients
Magnetic field therapy is considered a complementary and alternative medical technique. Based on the physical properties of magnets, the therapy has not been substantially evaluated by scientific studies, and has not been approved by the FDA.
The theory behind the use of magnets is based on the perception that a magnetic field imparted on a cancer tumor creates an unfavorable condition in the cancer cells by increasing cell oxygenation. The cancer cells cannot survive in the oxygen-enriched environment, which leads to the death of the cell.

Tell your physician of your intention to start magnetic field therapy. Most doctors are skeptical about the efficacy of the therapy, but some are willing to embrace this alternative treatment. Your doctor may even recommend a reputable therapy treatment center.

2
Contact a magnetic field therapy practitioner. Check your state's requirements for certifications. Choose a practitioner that is qualified by some national or international board such, as the American Association of Drugless Practitioners Certification and Accreditation (see Resources below). There are many unscrupulous people claiming to have cured cancers through treatment strategies and magnetic gizmos, so be thorough in your search for treatment.

Tips & Warnings
Continue using your other prescribed conventional therapy, since magnetic therapy is a complementary treatment method that has been said to make radiation treatment or chemotherapy more effective.
Do not use magnets if you are pregnant. If you have a pacemaker, defibrillator or any other infusion device, do not use a magnet. Do not stop or delay conventional medical treatment, as this could lead to serious consequences.
