I used to have such chronic pain all over. I thought it was part growing old in my early 50s, then I started wearing Energy Armor. I actually just got it for my balance because I did the test, however, 2 days later I was waking up without pain....I also had the best nights of sleep. I am always looking for natural remedies and seldom take medication, although before getting my band I would have to take advil especially before doing any exercises and after. I haven't had to take advil for 9 months. Now when I got their old bands it only had 500 negative ions and I paid $25.00 for it and although that helped with my balance it didn't take away my pain, it wasn't until I got the ones that had up to 3000 negative ions that I found relief. This one is $5.00 more and sooooooo worth it. Needless to say I've bought more since then. I was given a code to order it online to get 20% off orders.....You can use it if you want...every little bit helps. It's promo code: IA001, that is I (as in India) A (as in apple) zero zero one. I absolutely love this stuff...this company has certainly hit a goldmine. Now their website won't tell you that it does this stuff, but this is what I do for my chronic pain. And it's all natural. I did a lot of research before I purchased mine and now everyone in my family and parents siblings are all wearing one. I could go on how it has helped my family in different ways but you kinda have to try it to believe it. Now from my research I found that a small percentage are not affected by negative (good ions) or positive ions (bad ions). Well, you decide. When you get to the point when you want to try something different, give that I try. $30 was worth it for me but be careful...you will feel good and then want to buy one for everyone for christmas, birthdays etc....i won't even tell you how much money they made off of me.....but I am still loving it and feel good getting up in the morning without pain instead of having to roll out of bed from chronic pain in my back.
