Phiten Necklace and Bracelets Alleviate Stress, Fatigue and Aches
Hi everyone, it’s Fujikawa! My family is the rather sporty kind, and my family members have been using Phiten necklaces quite often. It led me to think that Phiten was simply a fashionable wear for people involved in sports, to look good while they are exercising. ^^ But it was different once I started to investigate it. Let the introductions begin!
Phiten (pronounced “Fai-ten”) necklaces and bracelets are often seen used by Japanese athletes and artistes.
Phiten’s Goal
Phiten has a wide variety of products, ranging from accessories like necklaces, to cosmetics, to bedroom furniture, to drinking water. It might seem that there is no genre to what Phiten falls into, but there is a theme driving the innovations behind their products, and that is “destressing”!
“In this stressful era we live in, is there something that we can do to alleviate the stress of our fellow men? If we can alleviate a little stress from the world, wouldn’t be useful to the human race?” That is the starting point of Phiten.
Is Phiten an athlete-oriented brand?
Phiten is not a sports brand that is aimed at athletes. Phiten’s strong link with sports can be explained by the recommendations by athletes. As mentioned above, it has products from every genre, and with it’s focus to help other destress, Phiten can be seen as a brand that is suited for anyone who feels that their bodies are unwell. There are even products against stiff shoulders for anyone who work at desks!
Phiten’s mechanism to alleviate stress
Phiten products have effects like help destress, recovery from fatigue, and relaxing the muscles. To achieve these benefits, Phiten uses its patented “Aqua Metal Technology” to melt metals at a nano level.
The mechanism is very simple, and any material that is treated with the Aqua Metal Technology provides a slight flow of electricity around the area of the body it comes near to, thus lowering the stress levels in the blood, and even encourages metabolism. It is said that body issues like stiff shoulders, pain the the lower back, troubled skin, obesity and aging are due to the chaos in the electric flow, and the mechanism in the Phiten products will be able to deal with it.

So these are the liquids being used in the products ^^
What does XOOO refer to?
Since Phiten has a wide range of products, it is honestly difficult to figure out what the differences are. We are going to look at X30, X50, X100 as reference to understand what the differences are.
It may be intuitive to think that the bigger the number, the better it is. That number refers to the density of gold metal that is melted into the product. Using the first generation of RAKUWA necklace as the measuring unit of X1, X30 = 30 times more, 50X = 50 times more, X100 = 100 times more. The higher the number, as you can see:
There is quite a difference in the colours between X1 and X50.
However for the titanium necklaces, there is no similar indication for the use of titanium in the necklaces. *^*
How long can Phiten last?
The number one question we have received about Phiten is the expiry date. It’s true that it is difficult to measure how long the effects of melted metals can last.
According to Phiten’s website, there is no expiry date. Even if the material uses cotton, the melted metals combines with the complex structure of the fibre, making it hard to remove. That’s not to say that it won’t come off if you throw it in the laundry, it is as difficult to remove it as washing a black tshirt into a white tshirt.
Furthermore, the material is made from both polyester and rayon, which are treated with the metal before creating the strings, which means the Phiten doesn’t lose its effects even after washing.
Also, included within the RAKUWA necklaces are cores made of titanium powder material called “Micro Titan Ball”. Since the cores can’t be reached through washing, the Phiten effects will not disappear.
As we have introduced, Phiten products are very substantial. Not only are the RAKUWA necklaces and bracelets are the representative products, the body tape, supporter and body cream are some products that are recommended to anyone of any age or gender (which we will introduce some other time)! We can’t avoid stress, but we sure can lead one where stress doesn’t stack up.
Thank you once again for reading till the end ^v^
