Tried the knee support with copper wire incorporated in them?

I've been having trouble with the old knees since the weather turned colder, especially on hills and climbing stairs, not to mention taking the dog for a long walk.

Opinions welcome :please:

Just had a google and can find plenty of knee supports but none with copper wire in them,
I have always worn a copper bracelet, perhaps you can wear on around your knee :rolleye11: :rolleye11:

Occasionally I get trouble with my left knee. I bought one of those knee thingo's with magnets in. I don't know if there is some type of placebo effect, but I certainly believe that it does help.

Magnet strength is all important though; the cheaper ones have weak magnets in apparently.

Mine is good though; every time I walk past something metal, my knee swings up and I'm left hanging there...

Not. :banana:

Have heard those magnets are very good, went to a talk once about them, not cheap, but the stories were good.

I got a bio flow collar for Cassie.
I believe the firm does things for humans, too.
It seems to have worked for her arthritis.

John swears his bracelet works once a week you have to return the bracelet to its magnetic box to recharge for 8 hours, John says he is in pain after a while, I have a cheaper version given to me as a gift I dont feel it works, this is were John got his.

This always makes me giggle Deja, Lacey will understand why!

Thongs in Australia are a rubber sandal with the bit that goes between your toes!!

...yep! I have seen a joke with these two overweight biddy's strolling down the beach with a rubber sandal wedged up their jacksy... :magnify: :shock: !!
