At 61 I was beginning to wonder where the "golden" years were. I have had chronic back pain, neck pain, pain under my right rib, knee pain, hip pain...pain, pain, pain! I have always been active, always exercise...I am on my treradmill every morning...Monday through Friday no matter how much I hurt. I was never sleeping through the night. Although I have tried magnetic bracelets with no success...I was willing to give the Trion Z a try. I have been wearing it now for many months. I can't tell you what day I started feeling better...it was a gradual thing. But one day I suddenly reralized that nothing really hurt! Overall, I feel so much more "normal". Do I never get "painful" now...of course not. But it doesn't stick around...it is more of a normal discomfort that "heals" and isn't chronic. My sleep pattern is so much better! Do I still have nights that I wake up and look at the clock, occassionaly but not very often.
I purchased this bracelet with no expectations that it was "mircle cure". But my quality of life has improved dramatically and I will never be without this bracelet! As some other reviewers have said...just a placebo effect? Who would care if the result is a vastly improved quality of life!

This is one of those pain-relieving therapies you're just gonna have to try and see for yourself if it helps- because some find it cures all their aches and pains, while others find it's absolutely worthless.

Supposedly the bracelet combines the power of "minus ions and magnets" so it can counteract the positive ion build-up which is bad for you and causes problems. While I'm not sure about that, I do know that the placebo effect in medicine is about 30%. That means that if I prescribed a sugar pill to 100 people, and told them it was a medicine that would help their pain, about 30 of them would say it helped.

Give it a shot- you won't be out much and it could work for you. Also suggest checking out Treat Your Own Tennis Elbow too if you have chronic tennis elbow.

In 2006, the FTC won its case against Q-Ray for selling Ionized / magnetic bracelets and claiming they healed people. The bracelets were proven to have no effect beyond the standard placebo effect (You could consider this the power of positive thinking).

[...]

Q-ray was guilty of deceiving and defrauding its customers, claiming a bracelet would heal their pain.

Companies are required to find that pain relief claims of these type should be supported by competent and reliable scientific evidence consisting of at least one well-conducted, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind clinical study.

This bracelet won't help you. It's just another company defrauding its customers. And it is almost certainly illegal.

I purchased a "Trion:Z" bracelet for myself and one for my husband. These bracelets were newly packaged from the manufacturer and are high quality. The fabric part of the bands are made with a stretch material, which I wasn't aware of, but happy to know. I'm a sensitive person, so I noticed within the first few minutes that the bracelet was doing something. My respiratory system cleared, somewhat, and since my circulation is poor, naturally, I could feel the difference in problem areas. I tested a similar product at the mall, I felt it was accurate as far as balance and strength were concerned. I also noticed when I walked away from the booth at the mall, an area of stress on one side of my upper back felt like it had a moment of relief. I decided to look for better deals online and learned that the Trion:Z bracelets have negative ion elements within the fabric bands and the major elements are places opposite on the band for optimum power. My husband has seen these at the golf supply store, as well.

I'm still undecided if the ENERGY/MAGNETIC bracelets are fact or fiction. But this is definitely a VERY comfortable one. Only drawback, is the bulky magnet part. It's quite a lot bigger than the bracelet itself, but soon becomes unnoticeable. With that said, I still where it, all the time, so if you have faith in these, I would get it.

This bracelet has helped to improve my energy during the day and my sleep patterns at night. I can wear it when I work out without it being in my way. I can shower with it with no damage to the bracelet. I am noticing less muscular/joint pains and better overall balance. The product shipped very quickly to my home and arrived in perfect condition. I bought it in black...which goes with anything I wear. Its definitely a unisex product.

I had painful "tennis elbow" in my right elbow from lots of computer/mouse work and some golf. It was so bad that I was wearing one of those compression straps around my forearm to support the muscle, and I went to an orthopedic who found nothing on an x-ray and exam. He prescribed routine exercises, which I have been too lazy to do.

So I thought I'd try one of these and I don't understand i, but it works. Within a day or two, the pain is pretty much gone and I have made no other changes in my life and habits. I have since bought these for my wife and both parents (in their 70's), and all have reported some joint or back issue that is now gone.

There is another product called a "power band" that my wife tried and it did nothing for her. It "works" by way of a hologram that supposedly does something. (I have 10 holograms in my wallet (i.e. credit cards with holograms) and they haven't ever made my elbow feel well)....

I recommended this product!!

I honestly have no idea if it works but it's fairly stylish and comfortable to wear. It essentially looks like two hair bands connected by a square plastic piece and a smaller rectangular piece. I position the square piece in the front of my wrist and the smaller piece in the back. Note, that placing the small piece in the back of your wrist may cause annoyance when you're using a computer mouse or doing other things that may result in it touching a table or other surface. I take it off when I shower, but I have gotten it wet before and no detectable odors have been retained. When I first tried it on, I thought it was too tight but over time, it stretched to comfortably fit my wrist.

I have a feeling that the placebo effect may be in play regarding the performance of this bracelet, but I see nothing wrong with that. If something improves your mental psyche which in turn improves your physical performance, than that's a good thing. For what it's worth, the bracelet makes a funny conversation topic. When someone asks me what it is, I tell them that it's one of those performance bracelets and then tell them to stretch our their arm. I then stretch out my own arm and tell them how much straighter mine is. Lame stuff like that...

I bought this bracelet not expaecting much so I bought one with colors I like. After a month of wearing it I could wake up in the morning and actually walk not hobble when I left my bed. (Years ago a bad ankle injury leaves me with issues EVERY morning). It says you can wear it in the shower but I usually take it off, one day it fell off the counter and I didnt realize it...two days later when I was waking up and hobbling again I realized I didn't have it on. Put it on and it took me about 10 days of wearing it but I am pain free again.
I bought one for my mother and she wears hers daily..she sleeps better and her joints dont bother her, she loves it and has also noticed a difference when she has forgotten it on the counter after a shower for a day or more.
I bought one for my sister who suffers from Crohn's disease as well as anxiety. She has difficulty sleeping alot, and she has found she needs the bracelet to sleep. She now keeps it on 24/7 which surprised me because she is very fashion conscious and it doesn't exactly match her style..but being able to sleep and be without terrible pain outweighs fashion anyday.
I am now buying one for my nephew who also has trouble sleeping and a friend stationed in Iraq who is having difficulty sleeping...I recommend them to anyone!

I love this maganetic bracelet. I am serious when I say that my joints do not seem to ache so much any more...I wear it all of the time. It is lightweight and forgettable...people always ask me what it is and why I wear it...I should get a percentage from the sales of all of my friends who have purchased them and the necklaces, too...I wish they made one for my cat!!!
