Tourmanium is a commercial product supposedly extracted from heating up tourmaline and germanium at 1300 degrees Celsius. Formed into beads, rows of it are often strung up onto mats and cushions for therapeutic purposes.

The therapeutic purposes claimed for tourmanium are that the beads "promote blood circulation, alleviate hemorrhoids and improves metabolism in the area which it is applied."

These therapeutic claims are not rigorously scientifically proven, and depending on the specific application method (such as adding heating components or combining the beads with other forms of Massage Therapy) may or may not offer benefits to users.
