The physiological effects of heat and the use of infrared in medicine and in beauty therapy

Warming up human body has a beneficial effect on it. Blood circulation becomes intensified, due to speeding-up in the metabolic process toxic waste evacuation (through sweating) is intensified and the overacidification of blood reduces. Our body’s immune system gets activated, the body’s self-healing power is enhanced: the rise in body temperature activates the white blood cells, the elements and mechanisms of our immune system. The acceleration of blood flow also has a positive effect on the heart and the circulatory system.

Use of heat for medical purposes

Mankind discovered the healing effect of heat thousands of years ago and used it to cure rheumatics, arthritis, sciatica, etc. Parmenides, an ancient Greek phylosopher and doctor who lived 2500 years ago, said: „Give me the power to produce fever and I’ll cure all disease.” Healing bronchitic and rheumatic symptoms of cold with heat has long been commonly known. In the past people used heated up brick, jug, warming-pans, and later electronic warming pillows. Hands-on, no-touch therapy, which has been used for thousands of years, is based on the healing effect of the human body’s natural infrared emission. Infrared-emitting electronic lamps have been developed in our time. Infrared cabins, where the whole body is engulfed with beneficial infrared radiation, are getting rapidly widespread.

The healing effect of heat can be the most successfully applied for the following illnesses: all types of rheumatoid illnesses, illnesses of muscles and joints, persistent spinal pains (backache, lumbago, sciatica, Bechterew-syndrome, neck stiffness) joint deformations, shoulder stiffness, hip and knee joint ailments, muscle stiffness; in addition: upper respiratory infections (common cold) and allergy, flu, sinusitis and other inflammations, respiratory illnesses, asthma, chronic bronchitis. In natural medicine: detoxication. Detoxification of the body reduces painful musculoskeletal deformations in muscles, ligatures, connective tissues, joints, reduces development of chronic, age-related illnesses that are in causal link with the overacidification of the body.

Beauty therapy: the most effective solution for slimming. Improves blood circulation in skin, clears skin from impurities and dead cells. It results in a „rejuvenated”, softer, smoother and more elastic skin.

The effects of infrared radiation on human body

When temperature drops, and everything outside is covered up in nasty fog, it is not only the nice and hot we crave for. Heat is important for our body and our spirit as well. Few or us know that warmth doesn’t only mean a comfortable feeling, but it also fills us up with energy and healing power. In addition, it’s a medicine from the nature. No matter we detect the first symptoms of cold or have just arrived after a long drive or we are suffering from spinal pain sitting by the desk: warmth is worth more than any tablets. And in our effort to stay healthy or recover from an illness the queen of heat therapy is infrared treatment..

What makes infrared radiation unique?

The best example is given by the sun. Most of the sunrays reach the Earth in the form of infrared radiation. We sense them simply as light or heat. It is particularly so on a cold winter day. Until the sun comes out, we are freezing in the cold air. As soon as the sunshine heats up the air, the cold becomes agreably warm. At the moment the infrared rays touch the skin, we feel warmth. As, in this case, the temperature of the skin rises, it boosts blood circulation in the skin.

As a result, wounds, bruises, abrasions and inflammations heal more rapidly. Following sports activities infrared radiation relaxes and regenerates muscles, which is particularly true to back muscles. The increase in blood circulation has a positive effect on metabolism and circulation as well. Despite all these there are people having cold hands and legs, suffering from pains caused by chronic joint problems, rheumatism or connective tissue disorders. Infrared rays are the most effective in dry heat. Infrared rays promote waste removal from the body and its detoxication.

Curing effects of infrared radiation:

Doctors today use the positive effects of infrared in treating for:

tension release, tumours, muscle stiffness, nodes in connective tissues, vascular problems, joint inflammation, and soothing muscle pains.
