Imagine tapping into your 6th senses! Bones in the sphenoid/ethmoid sinus complex contain a bio-magnetic material, called magnetite. Birds, bees, sea turtles, and other animals successfully navigate over long distances, because magnetite gives them a natural ability to sense the earth's magnetic fields – just like a compass. This magnetic sensitivity in our sinuses may help explain why applying a strong magnetic therapy field can relieve sinus congestion so rapidly.
