Hologram bracelet

A Power Balance branded hologram bracelet

A hologram bracelet or energy bracelet[1] is a small rubber wristband supposedly fitted with a hologram. Manufacturers have said that the holograms supposedly "optimise the natural flow of energy around the body," and, "improve an athlete's strength, balance and flexibility".[2] Only anecdotal evidence supports these claims and tests performed by the Australian Skeptics,[3] the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff,[4] and the RMIT's School of Health Sciences[5] have been unable to identify any effect on performance.
