Activated by heat, the FIR material emits FIR energy that is
absorbed by human cells, causing a physical phenomenon called "Resonance." Thus
the cellular activities are instantly invigorated, resulting in a better blood
circulation and an overall improved metabolism.
FIR heat therapy can aid in weight loss by speeding metabolic
processes of vital organs and endocrine glands resulting a substantial caloric
loss in a FIR session.
It also increases the heart rate and blood circulation, both
crucial to maintaining to one's health. The heart rate increases as more blood
flow is diverted from the inner organs towards the extremities of the skin
without heightening blood pressure.
In a case of injury, FIR heat stimulates flow of peripheral
blood vessels, bringing oxygen to joints and extremities, relaxation of stiff
muscles, speeding the healing of sprains and strains. The increased blood flow
helps aching and injured muscles recover faster because the stronger blood flow,
the quicker metabolic and toxic waste production purged from the body, through
the skin during perspiration. The skin is believed to be responsible for
eliminating up to 30% of body waste.
What the Researchers say about FIR (Far Infrared)
Infrared energy is not only safe, but highly beneficial for our
bodies. Far Infrared lamps are actively used for medical treatments by Doctors,
Chiropractors, Acupuncturists, Physical Therapists and Massage Therapists.
Infrared heat is "radiant" heat. Radiant heat is simply a form of energy that
heats objects directly through a process called conversion, without having to
heat the air in between.
Radiant heat is also called Infrared Energy (IR). The infrared
segment of the electromagnetic spectrum cannot be seen, but can be perceived as
heat. Our sun produces most of its energy output in the infrared segment of the
spectrum. Our atmosphere has a "window" in it that allows IR rays in the 7 ~ 14
micron range to safely reach the earth's surface. When warmed, the earth
radiates infrared rays in the 7 ~ 14 micron band with its peak output at 10
microns.
According to Dr. Tsu-Tsair Oliver Chi, in his summation on the
mechanism of actions of infrared devices tuned to the human body, tissues
needing a boost in their output selectively absorb these rays. The internal
production of the infrared energy that normally occurs within our tissues is
associated with a variety of healing responses and may require a boost to a
maximal level to insure the fullest healing response possible in a tissue, which
is being repaired. After boosting a tissue's level to its maximum, the
remaining rays pass onward harmlessly. This phenomenon is called "resonant
absorption."
