Abstract

Magnetotherapy, a form of alternative medicine, has gained significant attention in recent years due to its claimed therapeutic benefits. This comprehensive review aims to provide a thorough examination of magnetotherapy's mechanism of action and its clinical efficacy in healthcare. The study explores various factors that influence the efficacy of magnetic therapy, including the strength of the magnetic field, duration of treatment, and patient-specific factors. Additionally, this review examines the current evidence for magnetotherapy in the management of various health conditions, such as pain management, wound healing, and sleep disorders. The findings of this review shed light on the potential mechanisms behind magnetotherapy and its effectiveness in healthcare, providing valuable insights for clinicians and researchers alike. However, it also highlights the need for further research to establish the true efficacy of magnetotherapy and to address the remaining skepticism surrounding this alternative therapeutic approach.
