Abstract

Apparatuses for placement of magnetic therapeutic devices are provided. Such apparatuses may include an actuation mechanism that includes a movable portion that is movable relative to another portion thereof between at least three different predetermined relative locations, each location associated with a different position of a magnet located within a therapeutic device interface of the apparatus. By moving the magnet between the different locations relative to the therapeutic device interface, different amounts of magnetic clamping force between the magnet and a therapeutic device interfaced with the therapeutic device interface may be developed.
