Stealhead has it exactly right. I'm familiar with all these kind of gadgets. There is no valid, independent study that can support the claims. Basically, they don't do anything. There could be a placebo effect, it works because you're convinced it works. I find it interesting that all these things also include instructions with them that tells you to do something that would give you the same result without the device.
