benefits of far infra red heat for treating aches, pains and sports injuries
DESCRIPTION
Far Infrared expands capillaries which stimulates increased blood flow, regeneration, circulation and oxygenation. Alleviation of breathing problems and congestion. Far Infrared is excellent for detox. Heat expands the capillaries and then initiates the start of a process to dissolve hidden toxins. Far Infrared thereby promotes elimination of fats, chemicals and toxins from the blood: Poisons, carcinogenic heavy metals - toxic substances from food processing - lactic acid, free fatty acids, and subcutaneous fat associated with aging and fatigue - excess sodium associated with hypertension - and uric acid which causes pain. Far Infrared stimulates enzyme activity. Far Infrared emits photons - photons help release enzymes - enzymes stimulate macrophage activity increasing the elimination of damaged and diseased tissues - Nitric oxide is released which expands capillaries and increases circulation.TRANSCRIPT
HEATING PADS
*Far Infrared is the 'warm' energy in humans, animals and plants, also emitted from sunlight.
*The intensity of Far Infrared produced by the human body constantly fluctuates.
*When its intensity is high, we feel healthy and are able to overcome ailments.
*When the Far Infrared (FIR) begins to decline, we are subjected to disease and illness and tend to age more quickly.
*We can be exposed to Far Infrared heat for hours and it will never cause our skin to burn.
*Far Infrared heat is completely healthy and safe for all living things.
*Waves of energy, totally invisible to the naked eye.
*Capable of penetrating deep into the human body.
*They gently elevate the body's surface temperature
(107.6F/42 Celsius and above) enabling destruction of
cancer cells and activating major bodily functions.
*For many decades, scientific evidence has found that deep heat
can enhance the beneficial effects of healing therapy. Scientists
have looked at ways of how to develop more effective forms of
thermal treatment that target specific areas and enable deep heat
penetration.
*Traditional forms of heat therapy can be hazardous,
uncomfortable, unhygienic, inefficient and ineffective.
*Traditional saunas create exposure to extremely high
temperatures causing heat stress which can have detrimental
effects on health, especially for people with a heart condition or
high blood pressure.
*Thermal compresses and wraps are uncomfortable, heat is easily
lost, temperature does not remain constant and maintaining a
thermal compress or wrap is problematic and inconvenient.
*Research and development in the sixties - notably most extensively
in Japan and also Germany - wherein the Far Infrared Ray (FIR)
thermal technology was introduced.
*This revolutionized thermal technology is an effective, safe,
natural, hygienic, and efficient approach to thermal treatment.
*Today there are multiple health and medical professionals
internationally who rehabilitate and treat a multitude of physical
problems by using FIR heat therapy for humans and as well as
animals.
*Relief of sports injuries via thermal therapy is just one example of
treatment.

“We have a long way to go in terms of our knowledge and
understanding of the beneficial effects of FIR. It does seem clear
however, that there are good benefits in the use of FIR on the skin,
blood circulation and other conditions where the homeostatic
mechanisms of body balance have been disrupted. FIR is what is
believed to be the basis of the healing powers of Qi Gong masters but
now there are some aids which can uniformly deliver FIR, which can
be used in your home.”
‘A Small Device for Topical Leg Warming Improved Vascular Endothelial
Function in Patients with Chorionic Heart Failure without Any Harmful
Hemodynamic Changes.’
Written By: Hiroyuki Sawatari et.al.
“Systemic thermal therapy was reported to be beneficial to chorionic
heart failure (CHF) by way of improvement of vascular endothelial
function and may be useful for prognosis in patients with CHF.
However, systemic thermal therapy needs large scale facilities.
Hence, we developed a safe and simple method (leg thermal therapy:
LTT) using a lower extremities heating device. If the LTT can be
applied at home, it would really become an alternative or adjuvant
therapy for CHF. In this study, we focused to clarify the effects of LTT
on vascular endothelial function and hemodynamic changes in
patients with CHF.”
‘Clinical Effects of Far-Infrared Therapy in Patients with Allergic Rhinitis .’
Written By: Ko-Hsin Hu; Chung-Yuan Christian Univ., Taoyuan ; Wen-Tyng Li
“Allergic rhinitis (AR) is the sixth most common chronic illness worldwide,
which has a significant impact on patients' quality of life. Current
therapeutic options such as avoidance of allergen, medication and
immunotherapy are unsatisfactory. Far-infrared (FIR) is an invisible
electromagnetic wave with a wavelength longer than that of visible light. It
has been used to treat vascular diseases as a result of an increase in blood
flow. During the period of FIR therapy, the symptoms of eye itching, nasal
itching, nasal stuffiness, rhinorrhoea and sneezing were all significantly
improved. Smell impairment was not improved until after the last treatment.
No obvious adverse effect was observed in the patients during treatment
and follow-up. We concluded that FIR therapy could improve the
symptoms of AR and might serve as a novel treatment modality for AR.”
* Far Infrared expands capillaries which stimulates increased blood flow,
regeneration, circulation and oxygenation. Alleviation of breathing
problems and congestion.
* Far Infrared is excellent for detox. Heat expands the capillaries and then
initiates the start of a process to dissolve hidden toxins. Far Infrared
thereby promotes elimination of fats, chemicals and toxins from the blood:
Poisons, carcinogenic heavy metals - toxic substances from food processing -
lactic acid, free fatty acids, and subcutaneous fat associated with aging and
fatigue - excess sodium associated with hypertension - and uric acid which
causes pain.
* Far Infrared stimulates enzyme activity. Far Infrared emits photons -
photons help release enzymes - enzymes stimulate macrophage activity
increasing the elimination of damaged and diseased tissues - Nitric oxide is
released which expands capillaries and increases circulation.
* Far Infrared aids creation of Nitric Oxide. Nitric Oxide Can Prevent - Even
Reverse - Heart Disease and Strokes.
“From diabetes to hypertension, cancer to drug addiction, stroke to
intestinal motility, memory and learning disorders to septic shock, sunburn
to anorexia, male impotence to tuberculosis, there is probably no
pathological condition where nitric oxide does not play an important role." -

* Far Infrared boosts metabolism and enables serious detoxification - FIR
heat aids lymphatic cleansing - enables elimination of toxins, lactic acid
and carcinogenic heavy metals, serious cell detoxification.
“Scientists in Japan report that in the Far Infrared Therapy wave treatment
of clogged capillary vessels, a similar process occurs: heat expands the
capillaries from Far Infrared Therapy and then initiates the process to
dissolve hidden toxins.
* Far Infrared may induce the killing of varied pathogenic (disease causing)
bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites.
* Far Infrared promotes rebuilding of injured tissue by having a positive
effect on the fibroblasts (connective tissue cells necessary for the repair of
injury). Furthermore, it increases growth of cells, DNA syntheses, and
protein synthesis all necessary during tissue repair and regeneration.
Excellent for healing burns, scar tissue and skin problems.
* Far Infrared relieves nervous tension and relax autoneuro muscles
thereby helping the body make the most of its intended healing abilities.
FIR reduces soreness on nerve endings and muscle spasms, as muscle fibers
are heated. Rapid reduction of swelling, inflammation and associated pain.
Relaxation of muscles and relief of muscular aches - reduces back, shoulder
and neck pains.
* Far Infrared strengthens and supports the Immune System by stimulating
increased production of white blood cells (leukocytes) by the bone marrow
and killer T-cells by the thymus.
* Far Infrared strengthens the Cardiovascular System by causing heart rate
and cardiac output increase, and diastolic blood pressure decrease.
* Far Infrared aids in the destruction of cancer cells which cannot survive if
the temperature of the cell becomes 107.6F/42C and above. Heat therapy,
commonly known as hyperthermia, is used for chronic diseases, including
malignant cells.
* Far Infrared improves general body functions, and relieves tiredness and
stress in both body and mind.
* Breathing Problems: Asthma, Sinus, Colds, Flu, Bronchitis.
* Circulation problems - Rheumatism, Arthritis, Chilblains, Gout.
* Swelling, Inflammation - Arthritis, Tendonitis, Mastitis.
* Back, Shoulder, Neck and Muscular Pains.
* Abnormal Nerve Functions - Blood Pressure.
* Skin Problems: Elasticity, Texture, Chapping, Aging, Wrinkles, Acne, Damaged,
Burnt and Scarred Tissue.
* Toxin Removal: Heavy Metals.
* Hepatitis, Cirrhosis, Cystitis, Uric Acid.
* Menstrual Problems, Menopause, PMS, Yeast problems.
* Fungus, Viruses, Bacteria, Parasites.
* Sports Injuries.
