This magnetism stuff as related to humans is utter hokum. There is no theoretical basis for any of the effects you may have heard about. And, when real scientific experiments have been done, none of the purported effects have been observed.
If someone claims there is a benefit to using permanent magnets, either that person is sincere but misinformed and uneducated in science, or that person is a charlatan. The people who claim to feel better, etc. due to magnets, may feel better, but they really don't know the cause. Citing magnetic reasons is about as reasonable as citing astrological reasons.
I have it! Introduce a line of mouthpieces matched to the astrological signs of the players. Sell them as an alternative to doing all that tiresome practicing.
