Abstract:

A device and method for stimulating a beneficial blood circulation especially on the scalp area to prevent, stop and control hair loss, regenerate hair, as well as alleviate pain by means of strategically-placed magnetic bodies incorporated in a portable, grippable model of known geometric structures for generating a healing force of form energy. The magnetic bodies in form of permanent magnets generate an amplified and varying magnetic force in response to the modifying action of the form energy called shape wave. One or more permanent magnets are attached about the body of the grippable device secured by attachment means; at least one permanent magnet is located at the base portion, and another permanent magnet may be located around the wall portions or in designated places within and or outside the grippable device. The magnets are positions such that their pole surfaces face outwardly to contact two separate body parts at the same time so as to deliver half waveform each of positive and negative magnetism. When such pole faces are aligned with the body's own polarity centers and then massaged lightly by the user's own gripping hand using the effleurage type of massage, a more usable and more penetrating magnetic field is extended to access the body's own polarity centers and make a complete circuit thereby eliminating the possibility of polarity imbalance through improper and indiscriminate use of magnetic therapy device.
