What Are cPRIME Bracelets?

CPRIME bracelets are advertised as designed to create a balance of energy around the body. That's geared to make wearers feel less joint and muscle pain and experience an increased sense of well-being. Manufacturers maintain that such health improvements result in performing everyday activities at peak output. But while cPRIME claims to adjust electromagnetic energy, there is some skepticism about the bracelet's intrinsic health value.

  1. General Use

    • CPRIME bracelets contain a not-yet-patented array of antennae said to absorb, redirect, and balance electromagnetic energy. That action is based on the theory that stress and injury create an imbalance. CPRIME is worn by athletes seeking peak performance, and by people suffering with damaged joints and muscles needing pain relief. CPRIME also claims that electromagnetic balance increases flexibility.

    Bracelet Versions

    • CPRIME offers three different styles: the Neo, Women's Neo, and the Burn. The Neo is made from a polyurethane band and sliding stainless-steel clasp. The women's version of that is from a slimmer design of the same materials. The Burn is made of silicon and stainless-steel clasp, and is designed for action. However, there have been complaints that the clasp does not always remain closed, causing the $100 bracelet to slip off the wrist. Also, an electron microscope deemed that the clasp is actually made of aluminum, oxygen, nickel and sulfur -- thus, not stainless steel at all.

    Test Results

    • CPRIME tested 100 subjects, aged six to 71. The company's research claims the discovery of an average increase of 20 percent in strength, 18 percent in balance, and as much as a 15 percent increase in flexibility. A study in October, 2010 of six college students conducted by Health Science Professor Dr. Ray Moss through four testing stations at Furman University measured both the cPRIME and a placebo product. Five of those six noticed no difference when wearing the cPrime version. The remaining student performed with better flexibility, but turned out to actually be wearing the placebo instead.

    To Buy or Not

    • CPRIME bracelets without the stainless-steel clasp cost $55, while those with the clasp are $100. Testimonials show a marked polarized reaction as to whether users would recommend the bracelet. The six tested college students said that purchasing the bracelet is "not worth it." However, testimonials of other users admit that even if the benefit of cPRIME is simply a placebo effect, belief in the results can have a positive effect.
