Within the last decade, this alternative practice has become increasingly popular as well as profitable for many companies. The goal of this project is to demonstrate this renewed growth, via an analysis of public perception, and industry practices and regulations. Available scientific evidence will also be reviewed and a comparison of significant medical studies will be made to determine the extent to which scientists have researched the validity of magnet therapy."; "Worcester Polytechnic Institute"; "Medical care"; "Health", "Industry", "Well-Being", "Learning"; "2000-01-01"; "2000"; "2019-12-06T06:45:06.864341002+00:00"^^; "00D106I"; ; "Interactive Qualifying Project"; ; ; "http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"; ; ; "This report represents the work of one or more WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement.
