Go on ebay I've found good deals on there when I lose mine, which is quite often. I think I might be addicted :ohbrother:

I've considered trying one, I have constent stiffness in my neck. I may also go the acupunture route.

 

My aunt does that stuff and put two needles into my ankle and I said no more. Creeped me out when the needles were moving back and forth from the electricity in my body. :puke:

I have a Trion-Z bracelet for golf, I'm not really sure if it does anything or not.

Had a necklace. It looked good but I don't know that it worked lol? I've had several friends that played college golf and they swore by the bracelets. It is suppose to do something with balance in the body.

I know a ton of golfers who wear them.

They are suppose to relieve tension and pain around the area they are worn. However, they have no medical/scientific support to their claims. IMO, it sounds like a gimic.

 

Maybe so, however I remember a baseball coach telling me that if you think something works and it makes you more confident...then it does!

Which supports a lot of psychologists theories on the popularity of this product. They say that athletes, particularly MLB players, are highly superstitious. That's why these companies that make them are targetting athletes. If one player thinks it works, then they'll recommend it to many others. The company doesn't need to the scientific data to back up their claims when they players think it's working as advertised.

So from everything I have read in this thread so far it sounds to me like it is essentially a psychosomatic response.

 

Kind of like when doctors would just prescribe a placebo for patients they thought weren't actually sick but needed to believe that they were getting something great.

Yep and yep. I, of course, have one.

My friend has a different type of titanium bracelet for carpal I can't quite remember the name but he swears by it. I'll figure out the name and get back to you.
