Calmi Ring went viral on social media, claiming to help with stress and sleep. The ad boasts that the ring uses acupressure and magnetotherapy to boost health and well-being. However, the claims made by the manufacturers call for scrutiny. If you’re considering buying the Calmi Ring, here’s what you need to know;
- It is not a unique product. There has been similar ring with same ‘acupressure and magnotherapy’ claims which turned out to be an outright scam; ‘Olux Ring’
- The Calmi Ring is different from Oura ring. It doesn’t have an app to display daily health metrics as the Oura ring does.
- Calmi Ring can’t track and analyze heart-rate variability (HRV), blood oxygen rate, body temperature, sleep duration, e.t.c
- It isn’t adjustable
Calmi Ring
Sold on mycalmi.com for $39.90, Calmi ring is said to help with weight loss, increase energy, improve sleep quality, enhance blood flow, relieve pain, and reduce stress and anxiety. The website claims that the rings are adjustable and will fit any size. There’s also a 14 days refund window promised if the ring is in good condition.
Is Calmi Ring Legit?
No Scientific Backing
The Calmi Ring is sold with the claims of magnetic therapy, which is an outright scam. The magnets in the ring is far too weak to penetrate the skin to cause any health benefits. Even the claims of weight loss is false. In an August 2019 study in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, researchers found that noninvasive electromagnetic brain stimulation, combined with increased exercise and reduced calorie intake, can help people with overweight lose weight.
This may have made people think magnets might enhance their weight-loss journey, but electromagnetic brain stimulation is not the same as wearing magnetic jewelry.
People who claim Calmi Rings work are either having a placebo effect, or they are seeing results from other combined weight loss solutions like calorie deficit, cardio, etc.
Not Featured in Forbes, The Guardian & QQ
Our investigations revealed Calmi Ring is not featured, mentioned or endorsed by Forbes, The Guardian or QQ. The brands are mentioned on the website to create a sense of authenticity. This is because people are compelled to complete an order when they see a reputable brand ‘endorsing’ a product.
Manufactured in China
Mycalmi.co displays a US business address 112 N Central Avenue, 1st Floor, Phoenix, AZ 85004, USA but when orders are placed, tracking details show the item is coming from China. The rings are drop-shipped from China and not handcrafted as claimed, so they’re likely just mass-produced items.
Poor Quality
Complaints on TrustPilot.com and mycalmi.com indicate that Calmi Ring is made from cheap material. The magnet inserts on the inside of the ring falls out in less than two weeks of use.
Didn’t really notice any relief after a couple weeks and again just brushed it off wanting to give it more time. Just a few days ago I noticed one of the discs were missing. Turns out these tiny magnets aren’t secured in any other way. Buyers remorse is an understatement
Dubious Refund Policy
Though mycalmi.com promises a 14 days refund window, the ring has to be in original packaging; unopened. How do customers return what they’ve not tested? The policy is sketchy and against the FTC guidelines for refunds.
Does Calmi Ring Work?
No, Calmi Ring does not work as claimed. The positive reviews online are sponsored reviews. Despite the popularity of magnetic jewelries, science has largely disproven the effectiveness of such magnets in treating chronic pain, inflammation, disease, and general health deficiencies. The Calmi ring is a cheap jewelry sold with false health claims. It is more of a fashion statement than an actual health solution.
The idea that magnetotherapy (using magnets for healing) works is misleading. It’s considered pseudoscience, meaning it doesn’t have real scientific backing. If it worked, MRI scans would be a magical healing experience, but they aren’t.
Precaution
A lot of people who wear this ring may experience redness, itching, and swelling at the site of application. Aside from receiving a product that doesn’t work, buyers could also be a victim of;
- Unauthorized credit charges from the websites selling this product
- No product delivered
- Fake tracking Info
- Overpadded bill during checkout

I purchased Calmi ring & no satisfactory results. I would like to return but can’t find instruction for return or their website. I do have the original box it came in.
Any information re return would be helpful.
