·Far Infrared expands capillaries which stimulates increased blood flow, regeneration, circulation and oxygenation.
· Far Infrared is excellent for detoxification. Scientists in
· 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. Furthermore, if sebaceous glands are activated, accumulated cosmetics in pores can be eliminated through the skin (sweat and oil glands) rather than by the kidneys.
·Stimulates enzyme activity and metabolism - FIR heat also breaks down cellulite - trapped water, fat and waste.
· Promotes the killing of many pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites.
· 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 re-generation. Excellent for healing burns, scar tissue and skin problems.
· Relieves nervous tension and relaxes 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.
· Strengthens the Immune System by stimulating increased production of white blood cells (leukocytes) by the bone marrow and killer T-cells by the thymus.
· Strengthens the Cardiovascular System by causing heart rate and cardiac output increase, and diastolic blood pressure decrease - Extensive research by NASA in the early 1980's led to the conclusion that far infrared stimulation of cardiovascular function would be the ideal way to maintain cardiovascular conditioning in American astronauts during
