How important is gauss?
Gauss is not the only measure of a magnets ability to help and can often be misleading. Other factors can also be important such as the size and type of magnet. In addition, while wearing magnets on one part of your body(wrist for example) may help other areas of your body, the proximity of the magnet(s) to the painful area can also be a factor. Unfortunately, some sellers make exaggerated claims about gauss, so be sure to purchase from a seller you can trust such as Magnet Jewelry Store.
