Over
past 25 years, Japanese and Chinese researchers and clinicians have done extensive research on infrared treatments and reported many provocative findings. Whole-body infrared therapy has been used for over 80 years by German physicians in an independently developed form.
Among other benefits, whole-body infrared thermal systems make it possible for people in wheelchairs, or those who are otherwise unable to exert themselves, or who won't follow through on an exercising and conditioning program to achieve a cardiovascular training effect. This also allows for more variety in any ongoing exercise program.
As for infrared's outstanding effect on caloric consumption and weight control, we find that burning from 600 to 2,400 calories in a 30 minute session to be quite routine. The infrared thermal system might then simulate
consumption of energy equal to that expended in a 6 to 9 mile run during only a single session. This would be invaluable for those who don't exercise and those who can't exercise yet want an effective weight control and fitness maintenance program.
Evidently
flushing of toxins from
lymph areas and from
largest organ of elimination,
skin, are
source of many these health improvements. Toxemia has been targeted as
number one reason so many of us are ill. With
elimination of these poisons from deep within
body,
organs can then do their job unhindered.
Although any health-restoring strategy involves some type of cleansing diet and supplements, infrared therapy would definitely be called for to augment
process more efficiently.
The list of health enhancements through
use of infrared therapy is impressive and it includes: relief from all forms of arthritis, increase in
extensibility of collagen tissues, relieves muscle spasms and joint stiffness, increases blood flow, assists in resolution of inflammatory infiltrates, edema and exudates, weight control, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coronary artery disease, blood circulation, ear, nose and throat conditions, skin conditions (including cellulite) and all-around beauty treatment.
Is infrared therapy a cure-all? Well, I don't believe that. But it's value cannot be ignored. Especially in view of
fact that millions suffer from toxic overload and its vast array of symptoms. Perhaps many more will come to view it as
body care system of
future just like NASA's astronauts and newborn babies have.
