How much Gauss do you need?

7500 gauss is standard.

Everyone is different. You should try several combinations to find what works for you. About 7500 gauss is standard. Again, you need to find the right combination that works well for you.You may need more or less.

What is Gauss?
Gauss is: A unit of measurement of magnetic fields and is named after Karl F Gauss (1777-1855) was a mathematician, physics and magnetic researcher. One gauss is the equivalent magnetic density of one square inch of Earth .Earth’s Magnetic Field 4000 years ago was 4.0 gauss. Today it is 0.4 gauss & varies by location and time 5,7,1

  Gauss: Lines of magnetic flux per square centimeter, cgs unit of flux  density, equivalent  to lines per square inch in the English system, and webers per square meter or Tesla in the SI system.

Anisotropic Magnet
A magnet having a preferred direction of magnetic orientation, so that the magnetic characteristics are optimum in one preferred direction.

  Isotropic Standard Power Magnets:  Isotropy is uniformity in all directions.   Our Magnetic Magnetite Beads are these, they are sometimes called Biodirtectional.   That means they are not North or South ended magnets, they are equally magnetic all  the way around.

All of the Designs on our pages list the size of magnetic beads, just click on the picture to bring up the larger size image , count the Magnetic beads (most color beads are not magnetic) , Pearl magnetic beads are the same Gauss regaurdless of thier color. Refer to this chart for your Gauss strength per bead.

** How To Measure your Wrist/Ankle for the correct size Magnetic Bracelet/Anklet

**Please Be sure to' Select your Correct Size' when placing your order for EACH Bracelet from the order form drop down menu.

Measure Wrist's actual size, then add 1 inch. Magnetic Bracelets are NOT suppose to fit "Snugly", the "Clasp" can pinch if too tight. The average Women's bracelet size is 7 inch. (meaning wrist measures around 6 inches in actual size.) The average Men's bracelet size is 8 inches (meaning wrist measures 7 inches in actual size) each piece of Jewelry is Custom Hand Made for each order.

For Anklets: measure your Ankle where the 2 ankle bones are on each side of your "Ankle" all the way around ( Average is: 10 inch Anklet will fit a 9 inch Ankle measurement). An Anklet needs to be about 1 to 1 1/2 inches bigger to allow 'flexing" as you walk for your comfort.
