Bioflow bracelet interaction with stents?

I last posted about my recent problems with gout. The flare up is now subsiding, but has left me with some arthritis type pain in my wrist. A friend suggested a bioflow bracelet. I actually had a bracelet, which once belonged to my late father.. I have now been wearing it for several days, and strangely it has helped with the pain. I do have a slight concern that I shouldn’t be using magnetic therapy because of my stents. I believe that stents are made of an alloy which wouldn’t be affected my magnetic fields. Does anyone have any knowledge regarding this? Waiting to hear from my GP, but this can currently take a while. Thanks in advance for any replies..

I wouldn't be concerned. Firstly your wrist is a long way from your heart, secondly your stents won't be affected by magnets. If you feel the bracelet is helping you then great.

Rather than asking your GP I'd ask bioflow. I wish I could wear my bioflow, but with a pacemaker it's not a good idea x

I'm glad it's helping, I miss wearing mine x

I've used them on my animals as well, and they've always shown improvement.
