How to Be a Magnetic Therapy Practitioner

Magnet therapy is an alternative healing modality that uses the application of magnets to the body to treat a variety of medical symptoms and conditions. Magnetic therapy practitioners are not certified by national or state agencies; however, there are training programs available to educate practitioners and these generally offer certificates upon completion of training.
