As we prepare for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, we can be sure of one thing: a lot of people are going to take up sport. For some it will only last for a few weeks. Others might persist for longer... months maybe. But for a few, it will herald a change of lifestyle and an ongoing commitment if not competitive sport, then at least to staying in shape.
But getting into shape through sport - especially suddenly after a long period of indolence - carries with it the risk of
sports injuries. I don't mean breaking your leg in the high jump or getting caught in a burning Formula One car in the Silverstone Grand Prix. I mean more like twisted ankles or sprained wrists.
That sort of injury. Sometimes it happens, not suddenly, but gradually. And you notice it not when training or competing, but when you wake up in pain the following morning.
There are various treatments for these ailments, but on of the best is magnetic therapy. For example,
magnetic wraps, such as those in the pictures, have shown excellent results. And this is true not only of track and field athletes. According to the
Sport Journal:
Jim Colbert, professional golfer on the Senior PGA Tour, stated that he has not missed a day of golf in 3 years. He attributed his longevity to wearing various types of magnets. Donna Andrews, a golfer on the LPGA tour stated that wearing magnets helps her feel and play well.
