Question
Which one works better,if at all?
I had a Qray but lost it.I did fell a little better when I first put it on but nothing too dramatic thereafter.
Maybe the cost was mind over matter making me think it worked!?
Now I am wearing my old cheap copper bracelet.
I have no major issue,just the usual arthritis twinges throughout.
Thanks!

Hi Barry,
There are no actual studies on these bracelets. Their sales depend on word of mouth and stories handed down. I have my own feelings about them. I believe copper bracelets and magnetic bracelets can HELP arthritis; I do not think either will CURE all symptoms. What you could do is wear one only for a month and, during that month, take a mutliple mineral supplement daily. I like coral calcium.
I used to , many years ago, have carpal tunnel from wrist to elbow but as I started taking supplements it went away.
My favorite mineral pill says "endorsed by Larry King" on the label. It isn't cheap. Try taking that or another brand of coral calcium + magnesium each day and wearing the copper bracelet until September first and write back telling me if you're better. If your mattress sags in the center like mine, it'll kill your back. I've learned that memory foam loses it's memory so I'm switching beds. A little yoga before bed is fabulous. Good luck, Suz
