Expandable arthritis jewellery rings were created in order to respond to the changing needs of people who suffer from arthritis. Arthritis is a chronic progressive disease that results from hereditary considerations, but also from aging. Use of arthritis rings is very beneficial in this condition.

Rheumatoid arthritis causes a lot of pain to those who suffer from it. Pain isn’t half the story: people who suffer from arthritis also suffer from the swelling and inflammation of their joints. With the enlargement of their joints and at times, even the worst-case-scenario of deformity of their hands, people with rheumatoid arthritis eventually are unable to wear their jewellery, especially their rings.

This is because of the fact that traditionally created rings are made based on fixed
size requirements. As such, once a person’s ring size change, either they are unable to put their rings on, or actually remove them without considerable pain.

Some expandable rings are made from gauss magnetic beads that allow for the jewellery to adjust appropriately to the ring or finger size of the wearer. These magnets are usually placed inside the precious stones or beads that make up the ring, like amethyst or hematite.

However, an added benefit is the fact that these days, magnets have been used in magnet therapy and have been proven to help relieve pain. For people with arthritis, wearing expandable rings will allow them to enjoy wearing their jewellery even should their arthritis progress and cause extreme inflammation in the joints. The magnets in the gem will help relieve them from the pain inherent in arthritis. Magnet therapy works well only if the ring fits perfectly, and with the expandable magnet technology will make sure that the ring always fits.
