Copper has been around for many years and it has been used for its healing powers for many centuries. Copper is a natural element and can help with a number of health issues. Studies have shown that traces of copper can be absorbed into the body by wearing copper jewellery.

Why wear a copper bracelet

Copper is essential for the function of a number of antioxidant enzymes, it is also involved in vitamin C metabolism and the synthesis of collagen, a structural protein in bones and joints. Copper traces from copper jewellery and bracelets leaches excess sulphates on to the body, where they are deposited as a blue-green discolouration on the skin
