Have you used magnetic insoles, magnetic jewelry, or any other magnetic products?

Most of the people I have talked to use them to take care of a particular condition, which I think is great.  As a massage therapist, I recommend Nikken magnetic products to my clients to help with sore muscles and to promote relaxation.  Did you know that they can be a great preventative too?

The Earth’s magnetic field is not uniform.  It varies from one place to another so that one place can have a positive magnetic field and others, not even too far way, can have a negative field or a neutral field.  The earth’s magnetic field shifts constantly as well.  NASA has reported that the magnetic north pole moves every year and reverses on average every 300,000 years.

Nikken’s magnetic products are static earth magnets that can help balance the magnetic field that you are immersed in every day.  It is my belief that staying in this supportive magnetic field can help prevent a lot of the every day issues that we all face, things like fatigue, lack of energy, mild discomfort, and other similar issues.

Sleeping on a magnetic sleep system, like Nikken’s Ultra Kenko Pad or KenkoAir mattress, far-infrared comforter, and magnetic pillow will help balance your energy while you are sleeping and allow your body to make the best use of the few hours it has to energize and restore itself.

My first experience with Nikken was with the Ultra Kenko Pad.  A massage therapist friend invited us to a Wellness Home Preview and we were allowed to borrow the magnetic mattress pad for a week to see what we thought of it.  The short version of the story is that we ended up joining Nikken and highly recommend both the product and the business.

We put the magnetic pad on our bed and covered it over with the sheet  and settled in for the night under the far-infrared comforter.  Nobody told us to put our regular mattress pad over it too.  I wish they had because my first thought was that I was lying on a rock.  Firmness aside, I slept better than I had in years.  With the combination of the magnets, far-infrared, and negative ions everything on the bed just felt right.

Since we joined, Nikken has introduced the Kenko Air mattress which is an air mattress, similar to those number beds, with the Ultra Kenko Pad on top of it.  I tried one out once and it is very nice.  You can control the firmness of each side of the bed independently.  We don’t have one yet because our existing mattress is in great shape and there is no need to upgrade yet.

We have had our Nikken Air Wellness Power 5 since we started with Nikken in 2006 and have really enjoyed the clean air and negative ions that it offers.  We have often heard how well plants respond to it and decided to see for ourselves.  My wife has a bamboo plant that has managed to survive for several years but never really did much.  We put it near our Nikken air filter and pretty much forgot about it until one day we noticed that it has grown up past the ceiling next to it (our living room is open to the second floor).  The plant is at least 4 feet tall.  Since that experiment has worked so well I decided to bring home a struggling plant from work to see how it does with the clean air and negative ions.

If plants do so well with the Air Wellness system, imagine how well our bodies respond to it.

Do you know what Nikken Far-Infrared Technology is all about?

Yesterday I attended the quarterly Rhythm of Nikken event in my area and we were very fortunate to have Dave Balzer speak to us about some of the Nikken technologies.  Dave has had a long history with Nikken and is currently serving as the chairman of the new Scientific Advisory Board.  Needless to say, he knows a lot about the Nikken technologies and how they work.

Infrared energy is the frequency of magnetic waves just below the visible light spectrum and far-infrared waves are the waves at the lowest end of the infrared range.  Near-infrared is the energy used in heat lamps and mid-infrared is used in communication devices like TV remotes.  Neither of these penetrate our bodies very far.  Far-Infrared energy does penetrate our bodies bringing in nurturing heat along with it.  Far-Infrared is the energy behind the warmth we feel from the sun, even on cold winter days.

Nikken has many far-infrared products including the comforters in the Kenko sleep systems, the new travel comforter, the KenkoTherm wraps, and the new sport socks.

Comfortably warm under my far-infrared comforter

When we started with Nikken we received the Aqua Pour with our Wellness Home package and we used it for six months until Nikken launched the under-counter filter.  Prior to having the Aqua Pour I didn’t drink much water because it tasted bad, so I was probably very dehydrated. It turns out that the bad taste was because of chlorine in the water when I lived where there was a municipal water source.  Later I moved out to the country and had well water that still tasted bad because of too much of the wrong minerals dissolved in the water.  What water I did drink was bottled water, either the store brand or Aqua Fina (my Dad worked for Pepsi so naturally I drank Pepsi’s water).  As well as being very expensive it turns out that those bottled waters are highly acidic because they are purified through reverse osmosis.

The Aqua Pour, and the under-counter unit, puts out water that tastes great and is very refreshing.  It is also alkaline (good for the body) and very inexpensive (good for the wallet).  Probably the best thing about the water is that our kids love it.  I have two young kids who, thanks to the Nikken water, only drink water and a little bit of milk.  They used to drink a lot of juice (acidic with a lot of sugar and in most cases not a whole lot of real fruit juice) and now they don’t even ask for it anymore.  They get their vitamin C from real fruit now.

Try good water for yourself and see how much better it is.

I received an email this morning about a new study reported in Osteoporosis International about Nikken’s Osteodenx bone supplement.  The conclusion of the study is that “R-ELF supplementation demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in bone resorption and increase in osteoblastic bone formation, to restore the balance of bone turnover within a short period”.  The English translation is that milk ribonuclease enriched Lactoferrin supplements, Osteodenx in this case,  reduce bone loss and increase bone formation to restore the normal balance within a short time.  That is very exciting news.

The study was done with postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and was conducted by a team of scientists that included Dr. A.S. Narain Naidu, who created Nikken’s Osteodenx and Lactoferrin supplements.

With that, it is safe to say that if you have bone density issues, like osteoporosis, you can try Osteodenx and probably get some nice results.

Have you had your nutritionals today?

There are a lot of wellness companies that promote nutritional products.  You probably know at least a few that sell some kind of juice, such as Monavie or Xango.  The problem with these companies in my opinion is that is all they sell, just one product.  Nikken has a fairly wide selection of nutritional supplements that target very specific areas, such as liver support, bone density, or immunity.

I want to talk about three of Nikken’s core nutritional products, Ciaga (a high antioxidant juice),  Jade GreenZymes (young green barley grass powder), and Immunity (a blend of 14 mushrooms with immunity boosting properties) and the effect they have had on my kids.

I have 2 young kids who are very healthy and almost never get sick, even during flu season.  They don’t get flu shots and are in preschool with other kids who seem to be sick all the time.  If they do get a little sick it is only a minor fever and congestion that lasts only a day or so.  I credit that to Nikken’s nutritional products, namely Ciaga juice, Jade Greenzymes barley grass, and the Immunity supplement.

For them we mix their nutritionals together into a “cocktail” that they seem to love.  It doesn’t take much, just an ounce of Ciaga, a teaspoon of barley grass, and the powder from one Immunity capsule stirred together with a little water.  My son will even run his finger around the inside of the cup to get the last drops out.  We do this once a day and it does a great job of keeping them healthy.

magnetic insoles are probably the most obvious and well known of Nikken’s products.  They are the first product that Nikken released when they were founded back in the mid 1970′s, so the insoles have been around for a long time.  The magnetic insoles have been improved over the years and they still represent the core of what makes Nikken famous.

The first question people ask when talking about magnetic insoles is “do they work?”.  The great thing about magnets is that it is easy to prove that they do.  You put them in your shoes and either you feel something or you don’t.  It’s that simple.

When demonstrating the insoles to people I usually do one of two things.  To show people how magnets and magnetic insoles can make them stronger I use applied kinesiology, or muscle testing.  Basically, I have them stand in front of me with one arm stretched out to the side at shoulder height and their hand balled into a fist.  I push down on their wrist with two fingers and have them resist.  Without the insoles under their feet most people are usually pretty weak.  Then I have them stand on the insoles and repeat the procedure.  Most people are amazed at how much stronger they are with the insoles.

The second demonstration is probably even more amazing.  I have the person sit on the front edge of a chair with their feet flat on the floor and their arms together stretched out in front of them.  This time I push up while they resist.  In most cases their feet come up off the floor as they tip back in the chair.  Then I put the insoles under their feet and repeat the process.  This time their feet stay on the ground. To further prove that the insoles are the cause, I take one away and repeat it again.  This time the foot with the insole stays on the ground and the foot without the insole comes up.

It is my belief, based on my experience, that the nikken magnetic insoles improve energy flow through the feet to keep you better energized and better grounded.  Most people’s feet hurt at the end of the day if they have been on their feet all day.  The magnetic insoles help that condition.  I have heard from people who travel by plane that magnetic insoles, and other magnetic devices, help to prevent or ease the effects of jet lag.  I have even heard from some diabetic people that the insoles, and other Nikken magnetic products, have allowed them to keep their toes when they have been faced with amputation.  For their small cost they are at least worth trying.
