Far Infrared Therapy started out as a complementary treatment for cancer, hyperthermia, electrotherapy, dextoxification, nutrition and psychotherapy (in Bad Aibling, Germany) in St. George Hospital. Far Infrared Therapy (or FIR Therapy) is a heat therapy whereby far infrared () rays are emitted to improve blood circulation, enhanced tissue oxygenation, joint and bone mobility improvement, inflammation and pain reduction in muscles and joints. Far Infrared Therapy rejuvenates cells and metabolism. Far Infrared Therapy can also activate sweat glands to help rid toxins from one's body. Additionally, Far Infrared Therapy decreases acidity in the blood.
Far Infrared Therapy utilized far-infrared heating lamps, heating pads, mattresses or saunas. Far Infrared Therapy can penetrate up to 1 -1/2 inches through the skin's surface. Invisible to the naked eye, far-infrared light is simply the heat we feel. Far Infrared Therapy is also used in energy healing as it is the emitted energy or heat radiation from the healer's hands that promotes overall healing and well-being.
