Settings Guide
The BioMat offers different types of therapies depending on the temperature setting and duration.
On the high settings, it is similar to a sauna treatment, and can be used for detox, chronic pain, and body temperature elevation. A high temperature treatment normally lasts 30-60 minutes.
On a medium setting, it causes little or no sweating, and can be used for deep relaxation, stress relief, and improved circulation. This is a good place to start, and also a good option when the BioMat is combined with other therapies, such as massage or acupuncture. The biomat will alternate between infrared and negative ion modes.
On a low setting, it can be used for long durations, and has effects similar to the body heat of another person. We also recommend the quantum energy pad for longer duration use, as this makes it much softer and reduces pressure points. The BioMat produces more negative ions on the low settings, because it is not devoting as much power to the infrared function. These ions are released into the air and breathed in, which helps to elevate serotonin levels in the brain and combat free radicals in the body.
Please use the following as a rough guide to the benefits you can expect at different settings. Of course, each person is different, so the most important thing is to experiment with the settings and durations and find what works best for you.
95°-104° Negative Ion and Infrared Treatment. Gentle, long-duration, body temperature support.
113°-140° Infrared Treatment with Negative Ions. Stress and Anxiety Relief, Improved Circulation, Body Temperature Support.
149°-158° Strong Infrared Treatment. Pain Relief, Detox, Body Temperature Elevation.
