Frequently Asked Questions (Updated 9/7/07):

Q: In Simple Terms, what do Trion-Z products do?
A: Trion:Z will help balance the body's electrical makeup and promote the healing process:
-----The body is powered by electrical impulses going to the muscles and nerves.
-----Water and electrolytes in the body help create a conduit that allows the body to efficiently send electrical signals to the muscles and nerves.
-----If the body is in electrical balance, then everything works as it should.
-----If the body has too many positive ions built up (from strenuous physical activity, exposure to UV rays, exposure to electrical equipment such as computers, cell phones, TVs, etc.), the body sends false signals to the muscles and nerves. These false signals manifest themselves into symptoms such as lack of concentration, excess fatigue, heightened sense of pain, and restlessness.
-----Nature provides natural minus ions through waterfalls, rainfall, plants, and other means. People who are extremely active or are exposed to extreme levels of positive ions cannot dissipate the ions fast enough through natural means. -----Trion:Z boosts the minus ions and magnetic field of the body to bring the body into balance more quickly than could be achieved through natural means, and provides 20x to 50x the minus ion power of other metal or silicone/rubber ionized bracelets.
The types of benefits reported to us are primarily in three areas:
-----Pain relief: Many people with chronic pain have seen a remarkable improvement in pain levels after wearing the Trion:Z. This is primarily due to the reduction of the sensitivity to pain from high positive ion levels. Many golfers and bowlers have reported reduction of shoulder, wrist, knee, and lower back pain while wearing Trion:Z, allowing them to swing more freely and with less pain. (please see the testimonials link at www.trionz.com)
-----Increased stamina, focus, and reduced fatigue: Many people find that later in the rounds and games when they generally lose focus and start feeling fatigued, they are able to go longer and stay focused.
-----Relaxation and feeling of well-being: Many people have reported deeper, more restful sleep while wearing Trion:Z. Others have reported feeling less jittery and tense.

Q: How long should Trion:Z work?
A: Trion:Z should maintain its effectiveness for many, many years. Unlike other ion bracelets, it is made with a unique material called "STAYERS", which has "minus ion producing minerals" woven into the fabric. It will not "discharge" like many metal "ionized" bracelets.

Q: What Size Bracelet should I buy? How snugly should it fit?
A: How tight you wear the bracelet is based on personal preference. It is an elastic material to stretch over your hand. Some people like it loose and floppy, some like it to fit snugly and not move during sports. Either way, it will be just as effective. Measure around your wrist using a piece of string or tape measure then purchase the closest size to your actual wrist size. If you like a loose fit, select the next larger size than the actual measurement.

Q: Is there a proper way to orient the magnets?
A: The magnet capsule should be placed either on the pulse point or on the top side of the wrist like a wristwatch for maximum effectiveness. The two holes, which expose the magnets, should face the skin for maximum penetration.

Q: How soon should I notice its benefits?
A: It depends on how out of balance your body's electrical balance is. Some people have reported significant changes in pain or concentration levels in as little as 20 minutes. Others have more of a gradual effect over a few days.

Q: Do I wear this 24/7?
A: For maximum benefit, Trion:Z should be worn 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It can be worn while showering, but many people remove it when bathing to keep the product dry.

Q: Can I wear the bracelet while bathing, swimming or surfing?
A: Yes, Trion:Z will retain its "minus ion-producing power" even after being submerged, or even exposed to salt water. It should be thoroughly rinsed out after being in salt water to preserve its appearance.

Q: How do I wash the Trion:Z bracelet?
A: You should hand wash in warm water using a mild detergent such as dishwashing liquid. Hang to dry. DO NOT put in the washing machine or dryer.

Q: Can I wear more than one at a time?
A: Yes. Many people wear more than one at a time. If you find yourself feeling lightheaded or overly stimulated while wearing multiple bands, reduce the number that you wear.

Q: Should I wear Trion:Z while I sleep?
A: You can wear it while you sleep. The minus ion properties should help bring your body into balance, negating plus ions which may cause difficulty in sleeping.... thus allowing you better quality sleep.

Q: Can I wear while sleeping under an electric blanket?
A: Yes. The technology of Trion:Z is different than other minus-ion products, especially compared to metal "ionized" bracelets, and will not become discharged when worn while sleeping under electric blankets.

Q: Can I wear Trion:Z while wearing a wristwatch?
A: If you have a mechanical movement (a watch that needs to be wound, or automatically rewinds itself) in your watch instead of an electronic movement (Quartz movement or similar), you should wear the Trion:Z on the opposite wrist as your wristwatch.

Q: Should I wear the Trion:Z on the left wrist or the right wrist?
A: You can wear the product on either wrist. If you have pain or stiffness, you should wear the bracelet on the wrist closest to the point of pain.

Q: Since I am ordering over the internet what size should i order?
A: Here is the breakdown i noticed -
bracelets:
90% of guys wear medium
8% wear large
1% wear small
1% wear x-large

Q: Can I wear Trion:Z on my ankle?
A: Yes, you will need the appropriate size, which may be bigger than for your wrist. We have found that approximately 2 times the size of your bracelet should do. If you are having foot type pain, you should try the new Maginsole Mini designed specifically for feet and ankles.

Q: Will they be coming out with a smaller size then Small?
A: No, they will not be.

Q: The bracelet is kinda tight on me, what shall I do?
A: The bracelet expands if you stretch it out by placing it on something larger than your wrist .. and let it remain there - it will expand in time.. but be careful though since you don't want to stretch it too much...

Q: I noticed professional athletes wear the Trion-Z, do they endorse them?
A: No, although it has been worn by top athletes in the NFL, NBA, MLB, INDY Car, NASCAR, and the professional golf tours, the users are not endorsers as they receive no payment for wearing them. If you see an athlete with it on , it is because they like the Trion:Z results. Trion:Z ionic/magnetic bracelets combine medical-grade magnets and minus-ion producing minerals to increase blood flow, circulation, and to counteract the effects of excessive positive-ion buildup from physical activity, exposure to UV rays, and prolonged exposure to electronic equipment.. Elevated positive ion levels are associated with lack of focus and concentration, excess feeling of fatigue, and heightened sensitivity to pain, thus the reason of the professional athletes to use Trion:Z.
