FAR INFRARED CONTINUED...
CELLS
Attracts calcium ions to the cellular level
Promotes adhesion and osmosis of water molecules across the cellular membrane
Stimulates enzyme activity

Assists in reduction of swelling and inflammation by improving lymph flow
Decreases joint stiffness directly

Neuralgia
Headache
Pain during menstruation
May lead to increased endorphin production, which reduces pain

Due to the deep penetration over 1-1/2" into the skin of the infrared rays generated by the FIR dome, there is a healing effect deep in the muscular tissues and the internal organs. The body responds to this deep healing affect as a hypothalamic-induced increase in both heart volume and rate. Research by NASA in the early 1980's led to the conclusion that infrared stimulation of cardiovascular function would be the ideal way to maintain cardiovascular conditioning in American astronauts during long space flights. As the body works to cool itself, there is a substantial increase in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate, and blood flow rises.
INFLAMMATORY INFILTRATES, EDEMA AND EXUDATES
Edema of the joints
Inflammation of joints
Tendinitis
Sprain
Joint stiffness
Peripheral Occlusive Disease
Gout
Speeds up healing - treatment with infrared has been so successful that hospital stays were reported to have been reduced by 25%.
