I know using magnets can be tricky. I have a massage therapist that uses them and they can really help. But they can hurt to if used wrong.I know because I use one the wrong way. You don't think you can, but I did, it was on my back I did something and boy what pain it caused. If you can go to a therapist that use's magnet's they can show you the right way. Good luck.
