I saw this "miracle bracelet", advertised on TV last night and just had to check out their website. With this device, you could win the Olympic marathon or a PGA title. But I wonder what would happen if all your competitors had one too?
Qray
Why did you need to buy three of them? Do they wear out? Nothing in their literature about that. There's also nothing about pain relief if I recall correctly. They only say you will feel balanced, whatever that means. Based on the comments here, it seems the QRay does whatever the wearer desires.
Perhaps you confused QRay with magnet therapy which makes claims about pain relief. It's amazing. The placebo effect still works even if you buy the wrong thing!

The plating on the first two wore off in about 2 years each. which, by some coincidence, corresponds with their story about the "ionizing" wearing out in 2 years.
The one I am wearing now is the gold plated model and is holding up well.
I did not confuse this a magnetic bracelet although I have been explaing to freinds for years that I have no idea what "ionization" means.
By the way, I do get a lot of positive comments about the looks of the bracelet.

Ira,
I'm glad your friends like the look of your QRAY bracelet otherwise you might have to choose between fashion and pain relief. I guess the good looks are a bonus.
Call me a pessimist but I'm inclined to believe the plating wearing off has nothing to do with the "ionizing wearing out" but instead is a sign of poor quality manufacturing and/or planned obsolescence.

Since the "ionizing" seems to be a fraud, I would go with the planned obsolescence concept.

Okay, planned obsolescence it is.

I found a bracelet in my drawer and thought it
was a Monet bracelet which I forgot to wear for the last years and wore it because it looks nice.
I went to the Monet store to buy the same thing for
my mother in law...they said it must be an old product and thought it was real gold.
Until my son saw this bracelet...he said it was one of the magnetic type,then I read the Q Ray logo and remembered I bought it several years ago.
Frankly speaking it might had no effect on me otherwise I would have worn it all the time but..
still I like the design and am glad to wear it again.
Miracles? Mosquitoes still bite me, so it may
not have any fibrations whatever. I'm 60 maybe
it will make me look younger...haha LOL.

Well, so much for the gold plating holding up. I just looked and the plating is wearing off, on top of the balls.
Call me an idiot if you will, But I just ordered the Gold Deluxe Noir bracelet ( $179.00)as a replacement.
I'll say it again, it might just be B.S., but it works for me.

Ira,
If you need to wear a QRAY because it relieves pain wouldn't it make more sense to buy the cheapest version. I know gold plating is very thin but at $875 an ounce, I think I would demand better quality.

For all the 'QRAY' fans...an unbelieable offer!!!
I'm about to release the 'F-U-RAY'. I've just finished all the research & development. It only took a few hours. It's based on the ancient Japanese 'SCAMUSHI' thearpy principles. I was able to transfer these unbeliable properties into common copper wire (14 guage), by a process I call 'bending'. For that 'QRAY' look, I have added asthetically pleasing 'RWT' (round wire terminator) Energy Balls'. Practically guaranteed to boost your energy level from 0-50% (dependant on diet, amount of sleep and other factors).
For the next (2) days I'm offering FREE, yes FREE!! shipping, normally $35.00, (you will notice a small 'handling fee' of $25.00 on your credit card statement).
If you can prove you've also ordered a 'QRAY', by stating, 'I ordered a 'QRAY', I have a special offer..instead of receiving just (1) of our nearly patented bracelets at the unbelieable price of $150.00...we'll ship you (2),YES (2)!! bracelets for the amazing price of only $325.00!!
Presently available in RED, but soon to be offered in several other stimulating colors (dependant on Radio Shack stock).
Please stay tuned for more exciting products from...'WeFlyByNightProducts.com'.
Soon to be released...'Brain Beam Sole Inserts'.
What appears to be common shoe inserts are actually a newly developed technolgy, utilizing what we call 'gravity grabber cells'. These cells actually collect energy from normal Earth gravity and amplify it many thousands of times over. Then, by 'Aluminum Foil-to-Sock Mutual Inductance', we can transmit a highly focused beam of 'Brain Stimulator Electrons' directly into your central nervous system. These electrons become concentrated in your brain, increasing IQ levels by up to 7000%!!!
Q-Ray Bracelet work well as a money-spinner for the folks that sell them! But they don't actually "do" anything.

it is all a hoax, people who say they feel something, or are getting "positive effects" from it, it's just in their head. So i guess it does work, but only in a psychological way.
I am not sure about the effectiveness of these other remedies, but I do like the benefits of having a mattress cover / mattress encasement. I sleep better, dust allergies are no longer a problem at night, and my mattress is protected against 'accidents'.

I guess my IQ is lower than I thought.
What the heck is this last post about ??????????
P.S. I'm still wearing the bracelet and still pain-free. I don't care if it is psychosomatic or actual, I like it.

Ira,
Am I to believe if you stubbed your toe or accidently burned your hand on a hot stove, you would still be pain free? If not, how do the patches know which pains to suppress and which ones to leave alone?

Oops. Thought I was still reading the Lifewave thread. These placebo scams are all so similar, it's hard to tell the difference.

Capt. Al,
To you its a scam ( and you are probably right ), to me it's a blessing. It's all in the eyes ( or in my case, the heel ) of the beholder.
Have a nice weekend

I don't know if QRay works, but do not be so quick in dismissing chi and the body's energy system. I do accupressure and energy techniques daily and this has helped both my physical and emotional health tremendously - and i was a skeptic! Proof? EFT, for example, works even if you don't believe it does.But you do have to learn and do it. No junk food solution, but much quicker than an advil by far! Another? Energy medicine, by Donna Eden. Using the body's energy is true modern medicine/prevention. Q Ray doesn't have anything to do with your chi, which is alive and well inside you. There seem to be quite a few ppl here who benefitted - perhaps the bracelet stimulates a meridian that needed help

For your information Ira, it's a scam to QRay as well. If you read back a few pages you will see links to QRay's federal court case where they admit their product is a scam. That stuff about ionization and ancient Chinese medicine was all made up. That's why they had to pay millions of dollars in fines and refunds.
So it's not "all in the eyes of the beholder". It's all in your mind. But glad they work for you even though they have been proven in court to do nothing.
