First things first
First Things First
You should be sure that any handbags or wallets containing credit cards are kept away from the
therapy unit. Magnetic fields extend up to two feet from the device and may erase magnetic strips on
the back of credit cards. If you have a wind-up watch or one that runs on batteries, leave it at least a
few feet away from the magnetic coil. Also any remote car keys or other battery-operated devices must
not be in a near vicinity of the coil, as it will quickly lose its power.
Clothing
There is no need to have special clothing for the therapy, as the magnetic fields completely penetrate
the entire body as well as any clothing items. The only material it will not penetrate is steel, but if you
have a prosthesis, or steel plate, the magnetic field will reach the affected area as the coil is round and
will penetrate on one side or the other. You may find it more comfortable to remove your shoes prior to
getting into the machine.
Your Current Medication
We suggest you not alter your current medication, especially if under a physicians' recommendation.
After therapy, you may wish to cut down on the dosage as required. In this case, check with your
primary physician. We suggest you not start any new medication while under the course of the therapy,
as you will not want any confusion as to the cause of your future improvement. We do not prescribe
drugs or administer any analgesic creams or topical medications simultaneously with APT.
Your Current Activities
...may remain the same while under therapy. We strongly encourage you to not undertake any new
strenuous activities during or immediately following the therapy, as the newly found pain relief may
cause you to believe you can undertake new activities that your muscles are not prepared for. The lack
of normal muscular use in arthritis and other diseases, brought upon by constant pain, causes muscle
strength to decrease in time. A sudden absence of pain still leaves the muscles in a weakened state. It
will be necessary for you to rebuild your strength before undertaking a full range of activities.
BioMag’s physical therapists will include a series of re-conditioning exercises, which you can do at
home and are part of your over-all therapy. Resuming a new activity too soon may cause you to
experience an unnecessary injury.
Smoking
We are seeking optimum effects from your treatment, therefore smoking is not allowed for a period of
two hours before and two hours after your APT session. To enjoy a permanent optimum quality-of-life,
refrain from smoking.
Sleeping
It is important to get eight hours of continuous sleep each night for your general health. With APT it is
even more important, as when you sleep you are regenerating body cells that were activated and
excited during your therapy. With many patients, APT naturally encourages the mind and body to relax
and sleep two or three levels deeper. Try to sleep during an APT session as it will allow you to sleep
better at night. Some older patients experience a reverse effect and best not undergo treatment in the
evening. Each 10 minutes of sleep during APT is equivalent to one hour of normal sleep. APT is used
in treating sleep disorders as it affects brain frequencies and neuro-chemical or structural effects.
Nutrition & Exercise
Our policy at BioMag Wellness is that a well-balanced diet taken at regular hours each day, without
skipping meals, and a regular exercise program, are proper necessary complements to ensure proper
maintenance of body tissues under repair by APT. If you believe your eating habits are not conducive
to good nutrition, we may recommend certain natural supplements and minerals. We will provide you
with a list of foods that are beneficial, those that should be avoided and those that are neutral according
to your blood type.
Usually we prefer that a patient refrain from a rigorous exercise routine at the initial stages of therapy
until our physical therapists customizes an exercise routine for your condition when there is
improvement from APT.
Magnetized Water
Water (H2o) is a complex fluid which composes 80% of the body. By drinking magnetized water you
are enabling the proper exchange of nutrients to the cell membrane and help the cell to eliminate
waste. We ask that you daily bring a 1½ liter plastic bottle of water, full or empty, so that we can refill
it and magnetize the water for you to drink during. According to medical researchers this provides
many extra benefits to you such as:
* Improved immune system function.
* Elimination of toxicity of medication residuals through increased kidney function.
* Reduces acidity in the body and promotes a more alkaline pH.
* Increased energy to cells through better absorption of minerals and nutrients.
* Increased hydration and mineral assimilation in cells.
* Beneficial for kidney ailments (removal and prevention of stones),
* Regulates blood pressure (high or low).
* Revitalizes the body.
* Therapeutic effect of digestive, nervous, and urinary systems.
* Beneficial for menstrual and menopause discomfort.
* Helps relieve pain.
* Can help dissipate toxic deposits in the body's connective tissue.
* Can be used to wash and disinfect external cuts and scrapes.
* Will remove the plaque on your teeth if you use it to brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, and drink.
* Can help regulate the heart function and clear clogged arteries.
* Has a positive effect on the autonomic nervous system.
* Beneficial for asthma, fevers, colds, coughs, bronchitis and sore throats.
* Infuses energy into the body, controls bacteria, and stimulates brain function.

* Promotes healing of wounds and burns.
The founder of The Ohno Institute, Dr. Yoshitaka Ohno, M.D. and Ph.D. (www.ohno.org) has
published scientific and case studies of the effects of magnetized water in the treatment of many
diseases and in its use as preventive medicine.
