What is Far-Infrared heat ?
Infrared light is a member of our sun’s invisible light spectrum. One of Far Infrared Heat’s ability is to penetrate the human body with ease. This creates a natural resonance which has many benefits. Remember when you were at the beach sunning yourself using sunscreen? Did you still feel hot? You sure did! Why? Very simply, sunscreen only stops ultraviolet light (UV) from coming in contact with your skin. Far Infrared Heat (Far Infrared light waves) do penetrate your skin but are completely safe. They give you that fantastic natural warmth. Far Infrared Heat will never cause your skin to burn. You can expose your unscreened skin to Far Infrared Heat for hours. It is 100% safe and healthy for all living things. Dr. Toshiko Yamazaki, M.D., who is the Director and Owner of one of Japan’s most prestigious clinics, has conducted extensive research on the therapeutic uses of Far Infrared Heat. In her book The Science of Far Infrared Therapies, she explains on of the reasons Far Infrared Heat Has been effective in treating a number of various illnesses, is the ability of Far Infrared light waves to remove toxins which are usually at the core of many health problems. Since humans are bioaccumulators, toxins that are unable to be expelled directly after they enter our bodies end up stored in us. As an example, toxic gases such as carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and other toxic substances such as lead, mercury or chlorine that meet large water molecules are encapsulated by that water. Blood circulation is blocked in the areas these toxins accumulate and cellular energy is impaired. However when a 7 to 14 micron Far Infrared wave is applied to the large water molecules, the water vibrates. Vibration lessens the ion bonds of the atoms which hold the water molecules together. Encapsulated gases and other accumulated toxins are released as the breakdown of the water molecules occur.
