Worn against the skin and in contact with sweat, amulets made up of a combination of metal alloys were believed to create a weak electrical charge, recharging the body's electrical supply. It was based on an ideal that electricity was responsible for healthy nerves and blood flow. Richardson's galvanic amluet was one of several on the UK and US markets that claimed to treat everything including low spirits, loss of appetite, back-ache, dizziness and flu.
Galvanic was a term used for the production of electricity from a chemical reaction.
