This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Went to a gun show at cal expo. Two guys were touting the wonderful effects of the bionic band. Our buddies were tested and sure enough, it works. Went home that evening and googled bionic band scam. Read more into it and apparently it falls within the realms of "kinesiology". Basically in a nutshell, mind over matter.

At first, you don't know what to expect when they "push" you, or pry your fingers apart, or even tapping your drink with it. . . It is truly amazing at how gullible folks can be, and to be able to fork out the money for nothing.

I tried this at home with my son. I found an old barbie braclet that my daughter had lying around. I went through the same routine and the guys. Only, i told my son that the bracelet had some real powers that make him strong. Wouldn't you believe it. . . It worked.

If truly an amazing products, your local physical therapist would endorse the product. Oprah would endorse the product, your own personal physician would endorse it. This is just another mlm scam to let bring in money. Trust me, it will work with anything you wrap on your wrist. Just give it the "magical" powers that may be speech and you will find that they mind over matter does work.

It is the speech basically that your mother and father stated. . . "you can do it if you put your mind to it!. . . " good luck to those who still believe it works. Use your money to buy something that truly is beneficial.

Fangio,

Guess what? I did a double blind test on 5 subjects in the last two days and the results are conclusive, the real band worked every time and the one without the metal piece did not work. 5 out of 5, not bad hey, I'm going to keep doing the double blind tests and documenting the names and contact info of all participants until I hit 100 test subjects. To be honest with you, all of your negativity is motivating the hell out me to do all of the SCIENTIFIC TESTS you and other EXPERTS think you require.

Thanks for the motivation. Anybody wanting access to my info go to www.BionicMan.ca my contact info is there including e-mail and telephone number.

Are yo saying that you expected the result to be owrse using her product, on the subconcious level? If a sales person is selling you something it must be to improve things. As such your subconcious will know that things are expected to improve. Add to that that the other reason this can work is pushing in slightly different directions gives very different results.

The test has, as has been mentioned many many times, been used with "succesful" results for over 100 years prior to the invention of the bionic band, both with placebo's and without any placebo at all. As such the test demonstrates absolutley nothing about the effectiveness of the band or any other product or method that uses it as proof.

Hmmmmm? i am in the process of researching on these little bands! opening a wellness center and thinking of selling it?
i was at a shop-spree event and the lady there didn't tell me what to expect.. she simply told me to hold my arms out and stand on one foot, she pushed on one of my arms and i lost my balance. she then put a band on my wrist and told me to hold my arms out and stand on one foot again- i still didn't know what she was doing. then she, again, pushed down on my arm harder and harder and i didn't loose my balance... now, you say "mind over matter" hmmmm. how could that be when i didn't even know what to expect. i'm a very skeptical person when it comes to sales and bribes and have been in marketing and sales for the past 10 years. Ha! I still want another demo before I think of putting the “BIO Band” on my list of things to sell. but, $50. Is it worth it? thats what i was thinking when she told me the price?

Funny you mention true science will confirm things later. Absolutely, however, Bionic Band have certainly got nothing to do with true science.

I do believe in the pwer of prayer, thing is no one takes money off me to pray, there is no scam invovled. No one tells me lies about it doing one thing or the other offering no evidecne then takes my cash.

Try it, it wokrs, as I have said before but neither of you seem capable of reading, is a useful scam for people selling placebo's. How about test it with an identical uncharged version in double blind repeatable mrasurable tests, it works? No you won't go for that will you. Come on offer me an identical uncharged band and a charged band for testing, see if you can get the company to send you one, with a signed affidavit that both have been thoroughly tested to ensure that they are genuinely charged and uncharged. Are you going to say try it it works, or are you goign to insist that trying it under these test conditions is not necessary, you can just put one on and that's all you need?

I am saying that in my opinion this is a a good product. It is proven good by the testimonies. the same way my doctor tested me with the last medicine he gave me. He said it worked for others and may work for me. He then asked me if I noticed any benefits. The truth is the medicine is approved by the FDA. for what ever thats worth.
Your take on Jesus and the money changers show me you were ether assuming i dont know the story or you thought you could pull one over on me thinking I dont know. Never the less the reason Jesus threw out the money changers was that it was supposed to be a house of prayer. money changing may or may not have been sin but it was done in the wrong place. And now you can judge me about the sincerity of my prayer. It was very humbling for me at that time to pray. Yes I got down on my knees at that time. A part of me was sure this wouldnt work. But wouldnt you agree it wasnt just a scam. 33 years of drug and alcohol free is as scientific as it gets.
based on testimonies the Bionic band works It worked for me, Someday true science will confirm
you are very sure it is a scam that only your opinion, you wont even try it
Funny thing your remark notices strangely started showing up in my junk mail filter. I am going to take that as a sign.

I do nto need to try the product to know that sellign it for medical reasons such as pain relief is illegal. It is also unethical, I have nto flipped it is both. As to frivilously using court time, no the sellign of placebo's is illegal, as such you seem to be suggesting that any prosecution of that law is frivilous.

I am not fla, ming, I have put up the reasons why it is a scam and you guys come back with nothing to contradict it but just tell everyone it works. You are the onesx flaming, there is nothign you are offering.

With Bionic Band, there is nothign to understand, I have looked at their science and it's bull. This is why I brought in the word miracle. if a product that method for helping balance etc is compeltely flawed, as it is with bionic band, then for it to actually do anything other than promote the placebo effect woudl be truly miraculous. I have a joy of living, and since you bring religion inot it, i also have strong moral values. Thou shalt not steal is one phrase I am sure you will recognise, sellign somethign that does nto do what it says (and this is not sold as a placebo) is stealing, it is dishonest, and it is illegal.

My joy of life does not extend to letting people rip people off selling snake oil, that you think that I shoudl pass by on the other side when I see wrongdoing shows that your prayer was perhaps not sincere at all. Christ threw the money lenderes out fo the temple, he did not say, they are lending people money when they want it so I'll leave them to it.

I was not trying to bring another subject in (althoug I note that you jumped at the opportunity to divert yet again away from providing a single fact that shows the band as doing anything other than placebo) I was pointing out that there is no way using the sciecne offered that this works.

I said at worst meaning from a legal point of view it would be a frivolous to use courts to prove anything. Now you flip from calling it illegal to not ethical. I am sure you believe it is a scam but I think you are being "not ethical" by not trying the product and flaming anyone that does. The moral police should come and get you and tie you up with a bionic band hand cuff until you become a believer.

And here is another thing that ticks me of about you. no one has brought the word "miracle" into this. You obviously are trying to bring a another subject into this. So this gives me the opportunity to share my favorite "miracle"
Winter of 1976 just before Christmas' To make a true story real short. I was in a detox center in Saskatoon Sask. I had not had any drugs or alcohol for 6 weeks. I was going to check out of the clinic and get drunk when this guy asked me if I had tried prayer. Very unscientific I thought but I though I would try it then go get smashed. I privately Said the "Our Father" That was over 33years ago. Still sober and drug free.
You must be very young or very bitter to react the way you do. I think you need to be set free. If you dont understand something let it go. Even if you try it whether it is prayer or bionic braclet. Whether it works or not for you be happy knowing it works for someone. I think your mind is stopping you from the real joy of living.

So now the band (by not doing anything at all) relieves stress too. It's a miracle.

It is not legal to sell placebo's, it certainly isn't ethical, and still another post with absolutely no facts whatsoever to show tha the band works. Why are all the supporters avoiding the facts?

FDA has had many test failures. They are as unreliable as any. Placebos work as good as the drug and in a lot of the cases better. The band is harmless at worst. Good luck on having the FDA do anything they have too many law suites against them at present to deal with.

Ok

Canoe, sellign a product for pain relief without FDA approval is illegal. If you are ignorant of the legislation on medical devices it's not my fault.

If you honestly think the placebo effect explains ntohgin you are also ignoratn of the very basic principles of placebo and expectation. If these are not dicsounted from the "effects" band wearers "experience" then there is absolutely not evidence of the band doing a damn thing.

It's a con. The sciecne is BS. I have siad this so many times nad not one of you has come back with a single point that says the science is not BS, not once. It's laughable all that you come back with is anecdotal evidence that could be placebo based.

You claim facts back you up, when you ave not provided a single fac tthat shows the band has any effect of itself. Not one.

SD

There is a risk, as there is always in givign people you don't klnow yor personal contact details, as i have outlined above. So no I will nto be contacting you to get a band that will nto on it's own enable me or anyone elese to conduct double blind tests (without an identical but uncharged band you can't d the tests and you are not offering that are you?) and these are the only tests which will discount the placebo.

If I got a band and just tested it withtout the control fo an identical uncharged band it woudl not show in any way that the badn worked. You don't appear to understand that very basic principle. I can't think why not, except of course that the entire evidence provided by Bionic Band is shown to be useless when compared to that standard.

I doubt your sales rocket due to peopel piointing out that the band is a scam. it is a scam and that you are promoting it based on tests and so on that demonstrate aboslutely no effect from the band is a disgrace. I hope that someone reports you to the FDA and that Bionic Band are either forced to submit for testing or closed down.

Why doe it bother me, because peopel are being sold a placebo at a premium cost, the manufacturers know this and are raking in cash from the gullibel and desperate, most poeple saying ti works are distributors and financially gainging form this scam in teh pyramid scheme that they are using.

There are many truths still to be discovered, which si why we have consumer laws, to stop charlatans selling placebos at amssive marks ups becuase people, despite there being no evidence of any action by products, think it is the product workign nto the body itself. One thing that is known is the placebo effect, but you cannot sell placebo's legally.

If I buy a placebo and it works on me by the placebo effect then the manufacturer is ripping me off even if the placebo effect works. The return it line is a red herring, they just rely opn makign money from people for whom the placebo has wokred. You have bought the emperor's new clothes and excusing frausters like these because you got a placebo for your money is only going to make peopel think that cons like these are ethical. They are not.

I believe our human bodies are a well disigned and made to fuction perfectly. There are many truths yet to be discovered concerning the human body. I personally dont think its the fequency thing but I could be wrong. I do know it worked for me and am sold on it because it works. I do believe that you need to buy one and try it. If you get no benifet from it return it. I cant see how you can lose. I paid retail up front and anyone that is serious should do the same if they truely want to examine the results from the same point as I did. I wear mine night and day now.

Ignorant of the facts?

Ok, show me a fact tht shows that htis is anyhting other than placebo.

Not anecdotal accounts, not the BS they pretend is the sciecne behidn it, FACTS.

You don't seem to understnad the word.

As for a definite FACT it is a FACT that it is illegal to sell this product for pain relief as it has no FDA or EU license as a medical device, as it has not been submitted for testing.

I do not see what is nto decent about pointing out that the science put forward is BS, and that it is illegal to sell as a pain releif device, or what is not decent about pointing out that it is sold via pyramid marketing, uses tests as evidence that do not require a band to get the results that they claim shows it works, that they will nto submit for double blind testing that woudl rule out placebo, or that the mass of similar products on the market, when tested in double blind tests (despite being equally successful in the same tests that supposedly show that they work too) all turn out to be bull.

I do see what is not decent about selling a product for pain relief that has absolutely no evidecne what so ever that it has any effect on the body, has no science behind it that woudl bring relief from pain, has not ebeen tested by the proper authorities and is essentially a cheap silicone band. If this band brings pain free lives from anythign othr than the placebo effect it is a miracle (and i mean that in the sense of it is doing something that is not possible), as the makers have not made it for pain relief, their product is meant to align protons, which would have no effect on pain, it only (if you believe their psuedoscience wihc is completely flawed and untrue anyway) emits a frequency which would have no effect on pain, and is not advertised by the manufacturers as being for pain relief. Great you have no pain because of the placebo effect, doesn't give you a llicense to make money selling placebo's to people which is specficially against the law in the US and EU.

It's not me behaving indecently. This product is a scam, if you get pain releif then it is from the placebo effect. so come on cite some facts that show that the badn actually relieves pain (not the palcebo effect).

I have had incredible success with the Bionic Band, I have dozens of customers that are amazed that the pain they have been experiencing for years has disappeared almost immediately. Many of these people have even been prescribed medication from the doctor which they have stopped taking and continue to feel no pain. To make things even better the side effects from the drugs has also subsibed and produced many positive things.

So even if you do not want to believe... that is ok, there are many who do and are experiencing a joyous pain free life. If you choose to be ignorant of the facts and want to live in pain, that is your choice. But atleast have the decency to let others enjoy their new found pain free lives.

You bought it for bakc pain? It is not licensed for back pain, because ther is no eivdence that it actually does anythign at all, over and above placebo. If you were sold it by someone who told you it works for back pain they were breaking the law. If the manufacturers want to sell it for back paint hen they should do ssomehting they seem reallly keen to avoid, and get it tested by the proper authorities, however since there is no evidence that it does anythign at all over and above placebo they won't be doing that in a hurry. Don't you wonder why they sell it using network marketing techiniques? The opportunity to use word of mouth rather than have to actually prove that it does anything more than placebo, and the opportunity to have loads of distributors makign claims of health benefitst hey never have to prove, so they can deny having sold it for that purpose, it's obviously a con, but people keep buying into placebo and thinking the band is actually doing something.

So how come they don't put it up for testing then? Seriously, it is illegalt o sell it for health benefits as it woudl then be a emdical device and need an FDA license in the US or an EU license for Europe. The sciecne they sight is simply not relevant, eg Einsteins theory only worked on liquid water in direct conatact with metal, not human skin.

With that in mind the mechanism they say it uses is untrue, so they must have got incredibly lucky and accidentally made it so it works in sme way that even the manufacturers don't know about.

The tests they offer are subjective, and measure what happens when you wear the band NOT whether the band itself has any effect, there are very important differences in those two positions, and if they could prove that the band actually had an efect they coudl legally sell it for health problems and tap into the massive health market. I can only assume tha they are not into that market because actually they have absolutely no evidence that the protons are aligned, no evidence that changing the frequency of the body woudl bring positive effects and no evidencethat anything other than placebo is at work.

But hey, since you tell me it works and I should try it for myself that must mean you have tested it for placebo in controlled double blind experiments with a large enough sample group to disregard placebo, or that you have managed to check the proton alignemtn or the benefits of "changing your frequency".

The science is BS, the marketing method is word of mouth (rather than any form of scientific evidence) and they have many distributors breakign the law sellign it for helath benefits that they simply will not get their product tested for. Looks like a scam quacks like a scam, it's a scam. I am glad the placebo effect is makign you feel better, this product certainly is having no effect on you.

to all the people who dont believe the bionic band really works. you can suck it! i have seen it with my own eyes. ive seen it help adults, kids and even seen a dog climb stairs that he couldnt climb before. these tests where done by people who dont sell the bands. they where just opened minded enough to at least try something out before protesting it. there is a way you do the tests properly. it takes a little training and listening on how to do them. i recommend them. i have owned my bands for a year. they have really helped me and my family. if you are on the fence about this try it for your self. most of all! be open minded. it works!

I guess not too many people have heard of this one. I'm trying to expose the creeps as much as possible. The guy at the mall tried to sell me one of the rubber bands for $30. It's all trickery and this YouTube video exposes the scam. Watch this video first and then watch the people trying to sell this on other videos. What a shame.

I am glad theplacebo effect has given you a release from pain, the band however has absolutely no physical effect on you, and if you were sold it for pain relief then the vendor was breakign the law.

The law exists to stop scam artists exploiting people, any guesses why they have not got FDA approval to sell the band for pain relief, when there is such a large market if it does actually make a beneficial physical change?

As for the "blind" test, so you did a test and YOU didn't know which band was which, and YOU thought there was a difference and then surprise surprise the one you felt the benfit with was the one which was charged. Tests shoud be double blind, and independent and on a large number of subjects, unfortunately Bionic Band don't thinkn that is a good idea.

I broke my back (L5) in the marine corps. I did a blind study with a charged band, and uncharged band (they let you charge your own jewelry). No question about it, pain went away while wearing the charged band. This really works, but as they will openly tell you, it effects different people differently. My business partner can't stand wearing it, makes it hard for him to sleep.

Try it and you will see is the standard phrase for peope selling placebos.

How about Bionic Band submit the band for the legally required tests to sell this for pain relief. Rather then breaking the law how about they let the FDA try it and see, but not try it using the "applied kineisiology" tests which they use as their evidence, but actually try it using scientiifc tests to demonstrate whether the the band itself actually relieves pain.

Never going to happen, the sciecne is bull and the manufacturers woudl rather take the money and not stop the distributors from breaking the law.

I was at the Texas State Fair today. Having had two back surgeries, I struggle with lots of walking. After two hours at the fair, we were having to stop every 10-15 minutes for me to sit and rest. I was in such excruciating pain, I almost asked my wife and two kids to leave early and go home.

That's when I came across a display that promised back pain relief. I saw people lifting one leg and sticking their arms out and doing some sort of balance test. I must have been staring because a man walked up to me and asked me to join him in their area. Now, a couple of observations...

Their "area" had a rubber mat over the floor. I felt vibrations coming from the floor. It immediately helped me back because of the massaging effect. I also smelled a strong odor of what smelled like Vick's vapor rub. I figured it was to give a person the feeling of euphoria and wellness. (if you can't tell, I'm a skeptic) The man asked me to raise one foot and stick my arms out. I hopped around a bit because it's such an unnatural position. He asked me to resist his push as he pushed down on my arm. I immediately lost my balance. He pulled a nylon bracelet off his wrist and asked me to hold the metal portion and repeat the test. This time he absolutely couldn't knock me off balance.

Now, I immediately assumed he was pulling outward the second time, so I asked him to do it again. He pushed the exact same way both times. I was so shocked, I asked my wife to try it. She had been standing there laughing saying it was in my head. SHE HAD THE SAME RESULTS!

Still, with the vibrating floor and the smells, I thought there was a scam going on. The guy put a temporary tattoo thing on my wrist and on my back and told me I'd be back in 20 minutes to buy the bracelet. I laughed, we shook hands and we left. In about 5 minutes my back had NO pain. I waited another 10 minutes before confiding in my wife that I had no pain. I told her I didn't know if it was a placebo effect or if it was really working, but I didn't have pain for the first time in years. She marched me back to the display and we purchased a bracelet.

I went another 6 hours at the fair, only stopping once for dinner! I'm at home now and it's almost 11pm and I still have no pain in my back. I have a tingling in the bottom of my feet, but I don't know if it's the bracelet or the memory of that vibrating floor imprinted in my mind.

I don't know how or why this bracelet works, but it honestly does. I'm not going to bash those who don't believe, because I feel silly for believing in this little piece of metal. However, I would ask that you TRY it!

I was very skeptical when I saw this product last week and had the opportunity to try it myself. The person selling the bands gave me a 30 day money back guarantee, no questions asked return policy. Since I have been wearing the band for almost a week, I have noticed many things there were not advertised. My chronic lower back pain has disappeared, I am sleeping through the night so my energy level has increased and my arthritis aches and pains have left me as well. I have spent this week virtually pain free.

I'm a skeptic about everything. I've been in the health and wellness field for 25 years. I thought the demos were pretty amazing. They had us do it on each other because we thought the salesperson was tricking us. Long story short...since I have been wearing mine, the pain in my feet I get every morning when I wake up and walk on them is totally gone (only took about a week), and the headaches I use to have everyday and was on medicine for, well, I'm no longer taking the medicine and I rarely get a headache (nothing that a couple of excedrine doesn't take care of). I only take it off to shower!

Bionic band a scam? My f-f-foot! If it works how can it be? Three years ago I was diagnosed as suffering from peripheral neuropathy and have had to use a wheeled walker. Having started to wear the band, I found that I didn't have as much need of this mobility aid as I did before. I now wear the band 24/7. Call it a placebo if you will - I don't give a monkey's hoot in hell!

I bought mine in Sturgis. I absolutely believe in it. I have MS and have a serious balance problem. Since using the bracelet, haven't had a problem at all, , , even walking up and down the steps without holding on to the rail. I haven't been able to do this for years. I have even noticed an increase in my energy levels. I flew to Vegas and then rode to Sturgis from Vegas and was planning on flying back home as I knew I couldn't ride all the way home. But after using the band, I was able to ride all the way back to Charlotte. Even when working in my flower beds, I have to hold on to something to keep my balance and now I don't have to hold on to anything. I think it is absolutely amazing. I highly recommend it.

My husband and I were shown one of these by a Police Officer and a Firefighter who were just doing the demonstration for fun. I thought it was a circus act so I was dragging people over who knew nothing about it or why I wanted them to do this and it worked over and over and over. We felt so strongly about Bionic Bands that we became distributors the next day. Mind you, neither one of the men that were doing the demonstration were selling this product. I made them do the test on me a minimum of 5 times because I kept thinking it was a magician's act! Well, my husband got his band and wore it for a week. He is a horseshoe pitcher who just recently competed in the NHPA World Tournament in Cedar Rapids, OH. He normally takes 2 Advil at least every 4 hours to get through the pain of throwing 50 shoes, 4-5 games in a day. Plus, he has a shoulder AC separation that he refuses to have surgery on from an injury 25 years ago. My husband has not had to take a single solitary Advil for his pain since a few days after wearing the band. I just sold one to someone who has severe arthritis in her hands and knee. I told her to wear it for a week before she even considered buying it and didn't tell her what it did for my husband. Three days later, she's ordering her two-tone gold bracelet because she can now make a fist, open a jar and vacuum without severe and debilitating pain. Mind over matter? Explain that one folks... www.robynisabeliever.mybionicfamily.com

Your full of [censor] this product is revolutionary I am now pain free and I had cronic pain for years try it before u talk about something u know nothing about that's why they give a 30 day money back guarantee who ever says it's a scam is much more than an idiot! The company sold over 10 thousand units last month and only got returned 15 do the math that's a 15 percent of one percent return ratio! How can a scam have such good results.. Whoever is boasting how much of a scam this product really is such an idiot and really should just return the product and go jump off a bridge

Saucy Jack >> it continues to be humorous and depressing to see such ignorance (not stupid, just without the knowledge of a subject) run its course. Like all the "disbelievers and dejectors" you are coming from a lack of "exposure" to the band. You are right that many of the "believers” point out with confidence the MLM websites (and yes, I am one of them). They have seen and continue to see the positive effects of the band on the human body. I know, you are thinking, "yeah, the effects of getting people’s money!", but that is simply not the case. It is the effect of the frequency imprinted in the band and how it helps the human body.
Oh, by the way, I leave my website up so ANYBODY can CALL ME direct and I will answer any questions in person, not hidden behind a computer screen and anonymous screen name! Do you believe in your opinion that much?!
People say well how can you imprint a frequency, or will tell you that it can't be done. Really? Either you believe that science is an ever growing and learning art or you don't. We couldn't cure many diseases until recently. The world was flat. I could go on and on.
Again, I say that the band nor it’s “believers” have EVER said that it “cure what ails you”, but since you and many others have NOTHING to back up your claims of scam, sham, or con, you have to use the only “weapon” you have by wading down into name calling.
I challenge all of the non-believers to find a trade show, gunshow, health fair, festival, state fair, etc., find a Bionic Band booth or look online for a distributor in your area and try it out for yourself.
