Summary

This trial will test if static magnetic fields can affect blood flow and pulses in the arm.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for young adults aged 18-35 with no neurological or cardiovascular conditions. It's not suitable for those who can't stay still for almost an hour, diabetics, or individuals with metal/wire implants.
What is being tested?
The study is examining the effects of a small magnet (static magnetic fields) on peripheral pulses and skin blood flow compared to a sham (inactive) treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves exposure to static magnetic fields, there may be minimal side effects if any. However, specific side effect information isn't provided in the given details.
