relief of pain has been popular in many cultures for
perhaps thousands of years. A Google search on "heatpad therapy" produces many references to pages selling pads
that you can heat up and place on a painful back, shoulder or limb, to help ease the pain. There is another form of healing heat pad therapy that is, as yet, less well
known in the modern 'West'. That therapy is Far Infrared Radiation (FIR).
Statistics suggest that some 50 million Americans suffer
from chronic pain; and there are no doubt just as many who
experience occasional muscle strain or stress-related tension. Far infrared radiation therapy offers a great benefit to this massive proportion of the US population, and people all around the World who suffer with on-going and acute pain. Many chronic pain suffers will be glad to have a way to avoid many sleepless nights, and reliance upon prescription drugs.
Who Developed FIR Therapy?
Conventional medical science has been studying FIR for about 4 decades ; so it is relatively new in the modern approach to healing.
But FIR has been used in Far Eastern Medicine traditions for the last 3,000 years! In those healing schools it is well known as a means to safely and naturally reduce
pain in muscles, joints and deep tissue.
What is Far Infrared Radiation?
Far Infrared Radiation is a safe, deeply-penetrating
waveband of light energy. It produces a deep-healing heat when it enters your body.
Is that safe? !
Yes indeed. You've experienced the benefit of it many times, say on cold days when you can
stand in the sunlight and warm up, or sit around a glowing
log fire of a winter's evening.. Yes, it is so safe that it is even used in birthing units in many hospitals to keep newborns cozy & warm.
FIR Penetrates Even The Deepest Pain
FIR energy therapy is an old tradition, but has only recently been engaged in western countries employing a simple technology that can be used anytime and anywhere. It can be used to warm the deep recesses of your body, to ease the pain, remove stiffness, eae cramps, and take away that day-to-day tension.
With this technology you can stop taking the pills, and enjoy a more relaxing experience of deep-healing heat. You can experience a tranquil, peaceful, and pain-free glide into a
good nights sleep...
Most heat pad therapies penetrate just 2-3mm beneath the skin.
FIR heat penetrates as much as 75mm, warming deep aches and pains.
It increases blood flow to the tissues and stimuilates
elimination of toxins. FIR heat has been scientifically tested and shown to relieve all
kinds of pain. It provides relief from common long-standing conditions such as arthritis, bursitis, sciatica and rheumatism. It offers
relief for respiratory ailments such as colds, flu, asthma
and even pneumonia.
There's Too Much Back Pain!
Statistics indicate that 80 percent of the population will suffer back pain at some time in their lives. It is the second greatest cause for doctor visits. Neck pain is second only to back pain and has become increasingly common over the last two decades. Some statistics put neck pain as the number
one cause for disability among working Americans.
Arthritis is another major class
of chronic and severe pain that many of us have to manage. X-ray studies suggest that nearly all of us will have some type of arthritis in our joints by age 65. Overall
it is clear that there is a large section of the public that will need to manage chronic and / or severe pain at some time, especially as we grow older.
The question is: what treatments do we wish to have resort
to? Many people wish to look beyond mainstream medical
treatemnts that involve anti-inflammatory or pain-killing
drugs, as well as surgery. Fortunately there are
alternative treatments that do actually work and that can often eliminate back pain, neck pain, joint pain etc. Chronic pain sufferers can
return to normal life without resorting to surgery,
prescription drugs, cortisone injections, etc.
FIR - Another Way To Heal
FIR energy offers an important non-invasive choice against resorting to
drugs and surgery. Its waves penetrate your skin and
muscles all the way to the bone with soothing heat. This heat safely and gently warms deep tissues and increases the blood flow to the painful area. This in turn reduces inflammation and relieves pain. The increased blood flow accelerates the
removal of toxins from the tissues.
This deep penetrating infrared heat delivers more oxygen-rich blood to inflammed or injured areas. This in turn speeds up your body's own natural healing ability. FIR is easy to use, it takes just15-30 minutes a day to achieve the results.
FIR energy has been traditionally used in the relief of pain from arthritis, back strains, bursitis, carpal tunnel, tendonitis, hemorrhoids, migraines, joint and muscle injuries, sciatica, frozen shoulder, lumbago, abdominal pain and diarrhea, rheumatism and more.
FIR healing Heat therapy has much to offer as part of a modern, safe and effective approach to treatment of many chronic and often severely painful conditions.
