My name is Phil Watson, and I have been promoting a unique range of magnetic products since August 1998. They have a special patented field and are produced by a Cornish company called Ecoflow®. For more information on the range of products please see the products & services section. The most well known product they produce is our favourite, the Bioflow® wristband.
Since my partner, Kathy, and I started wearing this particular magnetic wristband we have both gained incredible health benefits, even though, when we first wore it, no one had any idea how it worked. I had many health problems such as; a re-occurring back pain for 15 years (prolapsed discs), painful neck, bad knees, severe muscle cramps, muscle spasms and IBS.
These long term health conditions, and my overall wellbeing, have improved beyond the outcomes of any other treatments I have previously tried, of which there were many.
Kathy’s Ankylosing Spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis and high blood pressure have all been completely resolved since using these unique magnetic products. Just to name some of the more major problems she used to suffer from.
In addition we have also both benefited from improved energy levels and a better sleep pattern since using them. So amazing have the improvements been that we don’t notice any of our old problems at all now. We were so impressed with our results, that we couldn’t help but tell others how well we felt.
If you take a look around our web site or read what our customers have written about us, we hope you understand something of what we are all about.

Why are we called CHANGING LIVES?
Both Kathy and I have been recommending a selection of health products, by offering people a free sample treatment at various locations around Cornwall since early 1999. The way we do this free sample is unique to us. In February 2004 we decided to operate from a dedicated shop premises enabling more people to experience our treatment. Changing lives is the name we gave to this first shop in St Ives, which we operated until November 2008.
It was the most appropriate name we felt, as not only had the benefits of these amazing products changed our lives so much since using them but there had been positive outcomes for our customers as well. During the time we ran the first shop, over 10,000 people sampled our free demonstration and an estimated another 15,000 prior to this shop. The vast majority of people that had one of our samples were amazed at the positive results we showed on them. Some of those people have very kindly written to us, please see our testimonials section. Over the years we have met many thousands of people, and we consider ourselves to be very fortunate to have played a part in changing their world for the better.
We have treated some well known people.
One of the more famous people we have treated is Janey Lee Grace from the ‘Steve Wright in the afternoon’ show on BBC radio 2, who we met in 2005. Janey was so impressed with our demonstration that she wrote about us in a couple of her books, the first of which was ‘Imperfectly Natural Woman’. We are pleased to say that she has been promoting us ever since. Please see our testimonial section for her thoughts on what we offer.
We have treated other well known people over the years including the golfer Ian Woosnam. Ian was suffering from the same problem as Kathy used to have; Ankylosing Spondylitis, plus he also had M.E. which, if I remember correctly, he developed as a result of a viral infection in Thailand. We found out through a friend that he had to withdraw from the Augusta masters in 2007, mainly due to his severe back condition. I spoke to his agent, and he was pretty sceptical that anything could be done.
Ian was in such a bad way and had previously tried all sorts of treatments over the years, without any permanent success. I remember saying to his agent, that I felt so confident in getting him a positive result that I would stake my reputation on it, and treat him for free.
The still sceptical agent flew out to Jersey to meet us at Ian’s house to see the results for himself. I suppose that Ian only saw me because he was in such a desperate situation, yet he had nothing to lose really did he? Ian was so impressed with the resulting pain relief that he immediately purchased a wrist magnet and ordered a copy of my demonstration kit so he could treat himself at home in the future.
Our unique global treatment service
We are confident we can achieve amazing results for anyone, anywhere in the world, using the knowledge we now possess. All people have to do is give us a chance to help them. They don’t even need to meet us nowadays to get a brilliant result, as many of our customers have already discovered.
We now have a way of treating people long distance, without physically meeting them. I can treat them almost as though they were in the room with me, thanks to the wonderful array of modern communication systems available. This idea was developed from my free sample treatment, which I have done since 1998. The way it works is that I teach people to use their own products as I do. This cannot be done for free unfortunately, but the products we promote do come with a money back guarantee.
Every person’s health issue is unique. However we have discovered, by doing the treatments over the years, there are similarities between many types of health problems. Utilising the knowledge we gained, regarding these similarities, we now get fantastic results across a wide range of conditions. We can normally figure out how to help the person, using the experience we have gained over the years.
If you know anybody that is suffering please put them in contact with us, we are confident we can help them. No matter the size of the person’s issue we would love the opportunity of helping them to resolve it.
Our previous history
It all started back in August 1998; when I was in a house in St Ives. I had suffered for 15 years with severe back pain, which was sometimes very debilitating. The gentleman who owned the house told me how he had got relief for his back problem with a wristband containing a new and unique magnetic field. He told me how, since wearing it, he had suffered no more pain and what a difference that had made to his life.
I was very sceptical indeed, having previously spent many thousands of pounds on varying treatments in the past such as chiropractors, osteopaths, physiotherapy, etc, without any permanent improvement, how could this ‘silly little magnet’, as I called it at the time, make any difference?
He mentioned that it came with a money back guarantee if it didn’t work. Sceptical as I was, I realised that I had no such guarantee from any of the other kinds of treatments I had tried, and decided to go ahead, despite my reservations.

It even helped my partner Kathy with her pain; and scepticism
The results I got were nothing short of amazing, and so I told my partner Kathy about the improvements I was getting. Kathy had suffered from pain in her back and neck for years, a condition called Ankylosing Spondylitis. This is said to be a genetic disorder and is allegedly incurable; therefore this was something that ‘could not be solved by a ‘stupid magnet’, as she told me in no uncertain terms. She also suffered with other problems such as rheumatoid arthritis and high blood pressure, as did her mum.
Kathy was highly sceptical, more like cynical actually, yet I knew that it had worked on me, and as she was also in pain, I thought it was worth a try on her. I nagged her for months and eventually she tried it just to shut me up and prove me wrong. After a few weeks there was definite improvement. Kathy didn’t tell me right away, as she was still sceptical, but eventually she had to admit that the magnet had definitely eased her pain. We call this ‘The humble pie story’.
Some of you accessing this web site will have met Kathy, and you know how much she believes in Bioflow® now. It might surprise you to know that it took me months to convince her to even try it.
The results were also evident on our family
Kathy’s mother, ‘Tissi’, had been suffering similar problems to Kathy for many years, especially with rheumatoid arthritis. The pain was particularly bad in her fingers, which made doing certain things very difficult, such as sewing and writing. However, the worst problem of all for her, as she was an artist, was that the pain stopped her from painting, so we got one for her as well.
Within days she told us that she, ‘just felt better’. However over the next three months the improvement was dramatic! Her fingers returned to normal, and she was able to paint, sew and write again, which cheered her up immensely.
We got one for my mum as well, and she again reported great benefit once she wore it. Kathy’s dad, Garry was even more cynical than she was, and that is saying something, but in the end she said to him, “Just humour me by wearing it, what have you got to lose?” Again the improvement was obvious and even he had to admit it worked for him as well.
We noticed other changes that we didn’t expect
Before Kathy wore this magnet she had high blood pressure for years, even on medication it was still very high, and she had to have it checked every 4 weeks. This was done as a precautionary measure as her blood pressure had been high for 15 years plus. After just three weeks of wearing the Bioflow® her blood pressure returned to normal, we didn’t even associate this to the Bioflow® at the time.
Kathy asked her doctor whether she could come off the high blood pressure tablets, as her blood pressure was now normal. Her doctor told her that she was on them for life but Kathy was adamant she wanted to try. She had read about possible serious side effects from medication over the years and was concerned about them. So after a while the doctor put her on a program to reduce the dosage but she still had to be monitored at the surgery every 4 weeks to keep an eye on it.
The dosage was slowly reduced over the coming year, but still her blood pressure remained normal, even as the dosage dropped lower and lower and still being checked every 4 weeks. The dosage was lowered to as low as they could give her, almost nil. Kathy even had a 24 hour automatic monitoring system attached to her arm, which self-inflated and checked it every hour except between 1 and 4AM. The recorded information was downloaded on to a computer at the doctors and showed her blood pressure was still normal.
So the doctor agreed that as it was OK, and as the dosage was now almost nil that she didn’t need the tablets anymore. She still had to be monitored every 4 weeks for a while after that, but it has remained normal ever since.
Kathy had also suffered from depression and panic attacks, for which she had been on various medication as well for over 10 years. Since using some of these amazing products, she has improved so much that she has been off all medication since 2000, with no ill effects at all.
Tissi also had high blood pressure, which again returned to normal within months of wearing a Bioflow®. Her rheumatoid arthritis also improved immensely, her fingers straightened completely and the pain disappeared from them. As Tissi’s improvements continued, Kathy had many a discussion with her mum about speaking to her doctor and going through the same dosage reduction program as Kathy had gone through.
Obviously we would never advise Tissi, or anyone for that matter, to come off medication without their doctor’s support. But the logic was that by getting the doctor to monitor Tissi, in the same way that Kathy had been by her GP. Then if that returned the same results, as Kathy’s had done, it might be possible for Tissi to come off the tablets as well.
Tissi had been so much better in herself that we thought that this was well worth a try. We had been asked by Tissi’s doctor to send her some information about Bioflow®, as even she had been surprised at how good the results had been, which we were more than happy to supply.
When Kathy asked Tissi what the doctor had said about all this, she told Kath that the doctor had told her that she was on the tablets for life. Kathy explained to her mum that she had been told the same but she was fine now. However Tissi took her doctor’s advice and stayed on the tablets, this topic became a long running discussion between Kathy and her mum over the next couple of years.
Our idea was to do a free sample demonstration on people, to prove it worked
Over the next few months we met more people that tried a wristband from us, but some people would not try it because they were sceptical. We understood why they would feel this way, as we had both felt the same prior to using Bioflow®, especially Kathy. I wondered if there was a way of proving how good the results could be by offering a free sample. I had previously tried free samples of many things before and thought that, if it could be done, proving results first was the best way before anyone bought anything. It took me a while to find a way to do this but now we have been offering people a free demonstration since early 1999.
What makes us different from anyone else is this free sample, which is exclusive to us; some have tried to copy it over the years, although no one else has ever been successful. Also, no one else does this demonstration anything like I do now, as I have continually improved my techniques and results over time. The longer I do this sample, and on more and more people, the more I learn, and the better results I get.
What happened next, affected us deeply
In the coming years we all went from strength to strength physically. My mother and Kathy’s parents all improved dramatically. Our customers reported brilliant results with the products they had purchased. In June 2001 Kathy’s mum, Tissi, came down to stay with us, and on the day she arrived we went to get some food from the supermarket. Whilst we were there, Tissi had a dizzy spell and fell over.
She had previously suffered a few dizzy spells before, including one when Kathy had been speaking to her on the telephone a few months before. Tissi had been to her doctor, and local hospital, to try to find out why this was happening, but they failed to diagnose a cause. In fact while she was visiting us, Kathy had planned to take Tissi to her doctor in St Ives to see if they could establish a reason for these dizzy spells.
She didn’t seem in pain directly after the fall, but a few hours later it was obvious she was, so we called an ambulance. To our amazement she had broken her femur, we could not believe it. Kathy joked that she would do anything to prolong her stay in Cornwall, as we were not in the slightest bit worried at the time. After a few days in hospital there were some complications and Tissi’s health deteriorated and, tragically, 10 days after arriving in Cornwall, she died.
The consultant at the hospital said that they had discovered that Tissi had bleeding ulcers in her stomach; and due to the loss of blood they couldn’t keep her alive. We were told later that this could be a side effect of the pain killers she had been on. Another doctor also told us that the dizzy spells were in fact mini strokes, which he said could be also be a side effect of the beta-blockers she was taking for her high blood pressure. We were devastated; especially as we felt that she hadn’t needed the drugs any more since wearing the magnet.
In the light of this terrible tragic event, particularly for Kathy and her father, we decided to commit our lives to getting more people out of pain with this amazing product. We are convinced that if her mum had come off the drugs, as Kathy had done, she would have lived longer, because since wearing a Bioflow® her health had improved so much.
We are also convinced that it was the side effects of the drugs that contributed to her death. One of the drugs she was taking, Atenolol, has since been linked with mini strokes as possible side effects. We feel we have to help people to find natural ways to treat the body, preferably without the use of man made drugs.
This is now our mission in life.
The idea of CHANGING LIVES was born
In February 2004 we decided to open a shop in St Ives called CHANGING LIVES. This was as a direct result of what had happened to Kathy’s mum described in our story above. We knew we could demonstrate how good this magnet was and we just wanted people to give it a try. With a shop, people could come along to try this free sample I had developed, to experience the positive results.
We opened the first shop virtually every day of the year from the opening day; as we are committed to helping people discover the amazing improvements possible. If you go to our testimonials page we have put some letters there from people who have met us over the years. We are quite positive that this treatment knowledge makes us unique in our understanding of how to get someone the best possible results. The more people I treat the better results I get, and in total now that is estimated at 25,000 people treated in all, and over 50 animals (please see Barney’s testimonial on our testimonials page).
Both Kathy and I have become different people since using these products
The name, CHANGING LIVES, could also be applied to both Kathy and I as people. We feel that our lives have changed so much, especially since we became involved in helping others to have a better quality of life. We feel we have come to fully appreciate what many people living with health problems are going through in their lives. People in pain often feel they are alone, and there is very often no solution that they can find, we used to feel that at times.
The improvements to our lives since wearing this particular magnet have motivated us to be ‘better people’ with a completely different attitude to life. It is amazing to look back at the changes since back then. These are pretty obvious to anyone that has known us over the years. In fact we have a different perspective on our lifestyle as well now, which is all about our health with natural remedies and good information.
We are passionate about what we do
We are more passionate about helping other people to have a better quality of life than we can possibly get across here on this website, but we hope you get a sense of it anyway. So many people that have met us, have commented on the depth of our passion for what we do.
We share many people’s belief, in natural treatments first, rather than other forms of treatment, which may have dangerous side effects. If you have already met us, we are sure you will know this to be the case.
Over the years some of the people we have helped who have come back to see us, and to thank us, have shared quite a few emotional moments with us. This is because of the changes in their lives and the improvements in their health that they also now enjoy. We consider them friends, as we hope they do us.
The testimonials we receive are truly amazing, and we are very proud that we have helped many thousands of people to have a better quality of life. We hope to help many more over the coming years. And YOU could be one of them, please get in touch, we are waiting to hear from you.
Best Wishes
Phil and Kathy
