Benefits: Far Infrared Therapy

 Supports Core Body Temperature

Did you know that chronic conditions are correlated with low body temperature?
If your core body temperature is even one degree cooler than optimal, your body can't produce crucial enzymes.
Enzymes are responsible for nearly every chemical and biological process in the body, and they are very sensitive  to temperature.
A small decrease in temperature can cause  a large decrease in the activity of an enzyme.  Low body temperatures are common, and contribute to other health problems.
Far Infrared therapy gradually warms you from the inside out. Not only does it feel divine, it actually supports your body in attaining and maintaining the ideal temperature.   

 

 

Relieves Stress. Improves  Mood.  Promotes Relaxation. 

The BioMat is the most relaxing infrared therapy for a number of reasons:

  • you can select from a variety of temperature settings to accommodate every person and every need
  • the negative ions give us what we are missing from nature when we are indoors - like the feeling you get when you are at the beach, in the mountains, in a forest or a waterfall
  • amethyst is known for its healing and relaxing properties
  • unlike a heating pad, far infrared warms you from the inside out... no hot skin or dripping wet, sweaty hair (unless you want to indulge in the sauna-like high heat settings)
  • you can lay down  - either resting or sleeping. Pair with headphones with ambient music to further the relaxing effects. Read a book, meditate, watch TV, or catch up on emails - it's up to you!

Heals Soft Tissue

For existing and chronic injuries, such as strains or sprains, or other soft tissue injuries, heat is the best treatment.

The BioMat allows you to deliver heat deeply to the injury site, rather than just on the skin. 

It produces far infrared light without becoming hot to the touch, so you can use it very near to the injury as well.

Relieves Pain

Unlike many other infrared devices that offer no way to easily target the affected area for long spans of time, the BioMat produces far infrared light, without being hot to the touch.

This is important because it means that it can be used close to the body, and in a variety of ways. Far Infrared offers a powerful and natural form of pain relief, with no unpleasant side effects.

 Improves Circulation

Whole-body infrared therapy increases the temperature of the body and improves circulation greatly.  

The capillaries expand, and the hands and feet become warm, in the effort to shed excess heat. 

This extra blood flow allows more nutrients and oxygen to reach the cells, allows wastes to be rapidly exported, and allows rapid drainage of accumulated lymph.

Break a Sweat (at high temp settings)

Sweating is healthy, and it serves several important biological functions.

Aside from cooling us off and unclogging pores, sweating allows our body to excrete accumulated toxic compounds. 

This study even finds that certain toxins are preferentially excreted through sweat.

Did you know that going through life without sweating every day is unnatural and even unhealthy?

Far infrared therapy involves some of the same biological processes as sweating.

Here are some other benefits:

Weight Loss: As you warm the body and break a sweat, your body is using energy and burning calories, which contributes to more permanent weight loss.

Heart Health: When the body cools itself down by sweating, your heart gets pumping similar to a cardio workout.

Aids Muscle Recovery: Although a sweating won't help you build muscle, it can aid in muscle recovery. Sweating boosts circulation and helps flush out lactic acid. This can alleviate soreness and speed up the recovery process. 

Increases Immunity: Your skin is a vital part of the immune system - as it is often the first line of defense against everything you come in contact with each day.

Improve Your Mood: Sweating can release endorphins, which are hormones that trigger positive feelings in the body. This can do wonders for your mood and overall well-being.
