Does placement of magnetic bracelets matter?

It certainly matters which way you wear  your magnetc bracelets.  Your bracelet or other magnetic product should be worn as close as possible to where it hurts.  For example, a magnetic bracelet may work for any pain, but would work better on the same side of the body where the pain is.  Also, it is so important to try the bracelet on both arms and try it facing both directions.  A bracelet might help ankle pain some, but an ankle bracelet might work better. In addition, you should never wear two bracelets on the same arm.

Also, the bio-north (negative) side of a magnet should face the body.  To tell which end is north, simply use a compass.
