In recent decades, complex scientific research has been developed on the use of long infrared rays in health treatments. The discoveries were surprising, as they allowed the development of equipment of great technological advance, such as the Photon capsule, which act in a systemic and profound way in the regulation of the organism.
But what are the benefits of long infrared rays?
They eliminate tiredness and muscle fatigue
Inefficiency in the mobility of body fluids affects blood circulation, oxygen supply and the entire metabolism. By stimulating water molecules, it improves blood circulation, speeds up metabolism and eliminates fatigue.
Prevents and fights stress
Long infrared rays heat muscle fibers, producing relief of nervous tension, muscle relaxation and reduction of pain in nerve endings. In general, it allows you to achieve great relaxation on a physical and mental level.
Relieves muscle and joint pain
In addition to reducing nervous tension, it contributes to the reduction of muscle and joint pain. The long infrared rays strengthen the concentration of intracellular calcium and the heat generated promotes bone strengthening, which helps in osteoarticular treatment with preventive results for osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, among others.
Increases the performance of physical activities
Long infrared rays relieve nervous tension, relax muscles, improve blood pressure, blood glucose and nutrients in cells, which results in muscles with more strength, vitality and stability. It also contributes to the elimination of lactic acid produced in the body, both by patients suffering from stress and by high-intensity sportspeople, by significantly reducing their physical recovery, as well as increasing sports performance and reducing the likelihood of contracting muscle injuries.
Improves blood circulation
Long infrared rays activate blood circulation, dilating the capillaries and arteries, producing in the extremities an increased blood flow, decreasing the acidity of the blood, aiding regeneration and oxygenation.
Reduces swelling
By causing microvascular expansion, accelerating blood circulation, reducing blood pressure and aiding the elimination of fluids, it will help to reduce the swelling caused by fluid retention. You get relief from tired legs and feet, often related to one’s own day-to-day activities.
Immune System
Strengthens the immune system by increasing leukocytes through the bone marrow and eliminating T cells through the thymus. Strengthens the body’s resistance to infectious diseases by increasing the production of lymphocytes and neutrophils.
Fights infections and inflammations
By accelerating cellular metabolic rates, it stimulates the activity of mitochondria and enzymes linked to the performance of the immune system, which fight infectious pathogens. Thus, it decreases infections, inflammations, promotes pain relief and accelerates healing.
Assists in weight loss
It helps in weight loss, since, in addition to improving metabolism, the fat molecules that are released follow the bloodstream and are eliminated by urine, also contributing to the reduction of cholesterol.
Lowers cholesterol
Since by the action of long infrared rays, fat molecules are released from the veins and arteries, these follow the bloodstream and are eliminated through the urine.
Sleep
It stimulates the production of endorphins, which causes a great physical and psychic relaxation, contributing to improve the quality of sleep.
Skin
The long infrared ray accelerates the recovery of traumatic and postoperative processes, promoting the reconstruction of injured tissue and assisting in the growth of reparative cells, such as fibroblasts, important in the recovery of burns, scars and skin problems. When the body temperature elevates, causes vasodilation and opening of pores, which helps in the elimination of toxins also in the subcutaneous tissue. Helps in weight loss and cellulite, and also contributes to a more hydrated skin.
Toxins and free radicals
Long infrared rays help detoxify cells by eliminating toxins, free radicals and metabolic waste. They also promote the elimination of fat, lactic acid, uric acid and heavy metals. By activating the sebaceous and sweat glands, it also helps the body to release through the skin, all toxins that are in the subcutaneous tissue.
Long infrared treatments are safe and effective, with numerous benefits as described above. With a systemic and comprehensive action, they can be applied in patients with the most varied pathological situations.
