Fascinating Far Infrared
Therapy Medical Facts and Data:
1) Far Infrared therapy increases
blood circulation and oxygen supply to damaged
tissues (aiding reduction of chronic joint and
muscle pain or sport injuries), promotes relaxation
and comfort, induces sleep and relieves stress.
2) German medical researchers concluded
one session of far infrared therapy for over 1 hour
can have significant reduction of blood pressure
thanks to a persistent peripheral vessels dilation.
They also noted that blood viscosity was improved.
After 1 hour of far infrared radiance, there is a
significant decrease of blood pressure - cardiac
ejection resistance - total peripheral resistance
- and significant increase of heart rate,
stroke volume, cardiac output, and ejection
fraction.
3) Acne
- Far Infrared Lasers verse Far Infrared HotHouse
or Far Infrared Lamp:
"Far Infrared lasers such as Smoothbeam or
CoolTouch, are becoming a very popular method to
treat acne, particularly in very resistant cases.
They seem to work by shrinking the sebaceous glands,
and you get relatively quick results. They hurt like
hell though." - Jeffey Dover, MD, Boston, ELLE
Magazine March 2004
HTE's Far infrared HotHouse 'sauna' or a far
infrared lamp treatment appears to open pores that
have been malfunctioning for years, forcing out
clogging cosmetics, and loosening dry outer skin,
healing acne and scars, WITHOUT PAIN.
4) Sunburn - According to the Clayton's
Electrotherapy, 9th Edition, far infrared
radiation is the only antidote to excessive
ultraviolet radiation.
5) Far Infrared Thermal Therapy and
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF):
Recently there have been reports detailing the
hazards of exposure to certain kinds of
electromagnetic fields, such as those from
high-tension power lines, cell phones, or from
computer display terminals. Far Infrared heating
systems have been tested in Japan and found free of
toxic electromagnetic fields. The Swedish National
Institute of Radiation Protection has also concluded
that infrared heaters are not dangerous. Instead,
Japanese researchers have reported that far
infrared radiant heat antidotes the negative
effects of toxic electromagnetic sources.
6) CHI
energy also known as Qi - the life force energy
present within every living thing:
The Qi that a Qigong master releases is called
external Qi whereas the Qi that circulates within
the body is called internal Qi. When a person is
sick, the flow of Qi internally can be interrupted
and various organs might malfunction. If proper
information can be delivered inside the body via
other media, or if new information can be generated
within the body through exercise by patients
themselves (the Chi Machine), the organs that are
out of order will resume their proper function and
the patients are thus cured. This is how
acupuncture, electric treatment, magnetic therapy,
and far infrared ray (the FIR HotHouse), cure
various illnesses and keep the body fit. - 'The Scientific Basis and
Therapeutic Benefits of Far Infrared Ray
Therapy', Dr. Kyuo.
7) The McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of
Science and Technology reports medical
practitioners make use of infrared radiant heat to
treat sprains, strains, bursitis, peripheral
vascular diseases, arthritis, and muscle pain.
8) Therapeutic
Effects of Far Infrared Heat - Chapter
9 of Therapeutic Heat and Cold, Fourth Edition,
Editors Justus F. Lehmann, M.D., Williams, and
Wilkin. Infrared Heat Therapy does the
following:
Decreases joint stiffness.
Relieves muscle spasms.
Increases blood flow.
Leads to pain relief.
Affects soft tissue injury.
Increases the extensibility of collagen
tissue.
Assists in resolution of inflammatory
infiltrated, edema, and exudes.
9) Potential Use Of Far Infrared In Dental
Clinics:
Mr. Shu of Ninomiya Yuri Dental Clinic used far
infrared ray in his dental clinic for some years. "I
have successfully treated many common dental diseases,
for instance, pyorrhea alveolaris, gum inflammation,
tooth pain, and muscular spasm." Mr. Shu indicated
that the use of far infrared ray is undergoing
research. Dr. Akira, Director of the Meitoku
Association of Dentists and Dr. Waaataru of the Kawano
Dental Hospital also use far infrared treatment on a
regular basis for gum inflammation and post dental
pain suppression. - 'The
Scientific Basis and Therapeutic Benefits of Far
Infrared Ray Therapy', Dr. Kyuo.
10) Artificial Body Parts:
"The HotHouse feels wonderful on an artificial hip
.. it is so comforting. When pins or metal have been
inserted, it does not harm, as it doesn't get over
98 degrees. Keeping it at that constant temperature
doesn't make the body go up and doesn't make it go
down. If a person is recovering from a break and has
metal pins in the body, the Far Infrared HotHouse is
very soothing to them." - D. Sudweeks, Pleasant
Grove, Utah, January 27th, 1999.
11) FIR and Healthy
Arteries:
When the normally smooth, firm
lining of the arteries becomes thickened and
roughened by deposits of fat, fibrin, calcium and
cellular debris, it lessens the arteries ability
to expand and contract, and slows the blood
movement through narrowed channels. These
conditions make it easier for blood clots to form,
blocking the arteries and stopping blood flow
completely. FIR is able to neutralize blood
toxicity and smooth the walls of arteries,
capillaries and veins.

12) Pneumonia:
C. Dunson, a Lymphologist in Utah reported that
within 15 minutes of a client being treated with the
HotHouse and lymphology therapy, their pneumonia was
cleared. Infrared therapy in both Japan and China
has proven to be outstanding for asthma, bronchitis,
colds, flu, sinusitis and congestion as it clears
inflammation, swelling and mucous clogged passages,
as testified to in Dr. Kyuo's book below.
13) Dr. Sasaki Kyuo, M.D. has
done extensive research on the therapeutic uses of
far infrared therapy. She is the author of "The
Scientific Basis and
Therapeutic Benefits of Far Infrared Ray
Therapy' -
which presents the clinical effects of far
infrared ray therapy.
Besides cancer,
Dr. Kyuo reports continual successful treatments of
many other diseases by use of FIR waves - treatments
not only by her but also by many other doctors. The
list of diseases - documented in her book - includes
stress induced chronic diarrhea, abdominal
distention, ulcerated large intestines, gastritis,
facial numbness, hemorrhoids, shoulder, back, and
knee pain, rheumatism, hypertension, diabetes,
weight loss, breast and abdominal tumors, low blood
pressure, asthma, anemia, burns and scalds, body
odor, early onset of baldness, fracture of cervical
vertebra, radiation exposure and related diseases.
Far Infrared Therapy:
* Improves micro circulation by exerting strong
rotational and vibrational effects at molecular
level.
* Enhances the delivery of oxygen and nutrients in
the blood cell to the body's soft tissue areas.
* Promotes regeneration and fast healing.
* Increases metabolism between blood and tissue.
* Enhances white blood cell function, thereby
increasing immune response and the elimination of
foreign pathogens and cellular waste products.
* Removes accumulated toxins by improving lymph
circulation which are often at the core of many
health problems.
* Stimulate the hypothalamus, which controls the
production of neurochemicals involved in such
biological processes as sleep, mood, pain
sensations, and blood pressure.

15) A clinical trial in Japan reported
a successful solution for seven out of seven cases
of rheumatoid arthritis treated with
whole-body far infrared therapy.
16) There have been numerous studies on
the therapeutic effects of FIR products. One
clinical study done by Dr. Gordon Ko and Dr. David
Berbrayer at Sunnybrook and Women's College Health
Science Centers at the University of Toronto,
published in the August 2002 issue of Alternative
Medicine Review "Journal of Clinical Therapeutics",
showed that there are significant improvements in
both subjective measures of pain and discomfort
associated with Raynaud's
Syndrome.
17) In Japan, Hideyoshi Toyokawa and
others researched the effects of FIR on wound healing. The results
showed that FIR can improve wound healing
significantly. The results can be read at

18) Far Infrared Healing With Photons.
"From first hand experience, I can tell you (FIR) is
a miraculous tool that on the surface seems
contradictory. It can help alleviate the sensation
of numbness, but it can also bring back a sense of
feeling in areas that have gone numb. It can remove
overgrown scar tissue and it can stimulate tissue
growth. It can remove excess pigment, but it also
restores pigment in areas where needed. It can
activate healing components within the immune
system, but also decrease the body's sometimes
harmful inflammation response."
19) "One of the fastest growing
complaints in this country today,carpal tunnel
syndrome (CTS) responds to (FIR) as well. CTS
is caused by motion and trauma to the median nerve
passing through the wrist. Assembly line workers are
particularly prone to the problem. The standard
medical treatment for CTS is still surgery, which
has a dismal success rate of less than 10%. Dr.
Wayne Good, the plant physician at General Motors
Flint Assembly, has treated close to 600 patients
(with FIR) and achieved positive results in over 70%
of patients. He is in the process of submitting his
results for publication as further studies
continue."
20) "Photobiotherapy (FIR) will become
one of the premier healing tools of our future. It
will eliminate the need for many of today's common
surgical procedures. I can see the day when every
household in the country will have a (FIR) unit on
hand. When used properly, it is a safe, effective,
natural tool that can enhance, rather than oppose,
the body's own innate healing powers." - G.E.
Poesnecker, N.D., D.C.
21) How fast are you
aging?
a) Common problems
associated with lifestyle and aging, such as
hypertension and osteoporosis, headaches and
digestive problems, are attributed by some
scientists to be the result of excess acidity in
our system. The American Medical Journal found
that in patients with bone loss, alkalizing their
system caused a decrease in bone loss. Their
conclusion was that our typical American diet is acid producing.
The acids deposited in our blood are often stored
by the body in forms of cholesterol, fatty acid,
uric acid, and other villains that cause havoc in
our system. Sang Whang, the author of "Reverse
Aging" claims that these excess acids can be
eliminated with the use of far infrared products,
along with consuming certain alkaline minerals and
foods. The far infrared resonance heats up the
internal temperature of the body, increasing
circulation, thus enabling the blood to melt out
the acidic toxins that have been deposited
for years in one's arteries. - www.takionic.com

by
Dr. Fouad I. Ghaly, M.D. Studies suggest that far
infrared light stimulates the production
of cell tissue and rapidly promotes the
regeneration of skin and blood tissue.
Far Infrared Detoxification
Toxic accumulation is a root cause behind
most physical challenges,
including the aging process and diseases such
as cancer.
Far Infrared is thought to be 7 times more
effective at detoxifying heavy metals such as
mercury, aluminum,
and even cholesterol's, nicotine, alcohol, ammonia,
sulfuric acid and other environmental toxins, as
opposed to conventional heat or steam saunas.
The human body is a reservoir of all kinds of
bio-toxins which cannot be expelled immediately and
become stored in the body, thereby triggering
illness. When toxic gases such as sulfur dioxide and
carbon dioxide, or potentially fatal heavy metal
toxins such as mercury, lead and chlorine, meet
large water molecules, they are encapsulated by
clusters of water and trapped in the body. Where
these toxins are accumulated, blood circulation is
blocked and cellular energy is impaired. However,
when a 7 to 11 micron FIR wave is applied to these
large water molecules, the water begins to vibrate.
This vibration reduces the ion bonds of the atoms
which are holding together the molecules of water.
As the water evaporates, the encapsulated gas and
toxins can be released.
Toxic Cleansing With Far Infrared
(FIR) Waves:
"One of the reasons FIR has beneficial results in a
variety of illnesses is the ability of FIR waves to
remove toxins, which are often at the core of many
health problems. Toxins that cannot be removed
immediately after they enter the body are
encapsulated by clusters of water. Blood circulation
becomes blocked and the cellular energy impaired
where these toxins accumulate. However, when a
10-micron FIR wave is applied to water molecules
containing toxins, the water begins to vibrate. This
vibration reduces the ion bonds of the atoms that
are holding together the molecules of water. As the
breakdown of the water molecules occurs,
encapsulated gases and other toxic materials are
released. One study done by American researchers
showed that the sweat released by users of a FIR
sauna was different that the sweat of people
using a conventional sauna or doing normal exercise.
The non water portion of sweat released in a FIR
sauna was cholesterol, fat soluble toxins, toxic
heavy metals, sulfuric acid, sodium, ammonia and
uric acid." - Dr. Kyuo, Japan.
Toxic overload has been
implicated in many health conditions,
from fibrocystic breast
disease (FBD) in women to attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children.
Symptoms of toxic overload include fatigue,
headaches, joint or muscle pain, frequent colds and
flu, signs of allergy and hormonal imbalance,
chemical sensitivity, sinus congestion, psoriasis
and other skin conditions, loss of dexterity,
insomnia and more. Psychological symptoms include
poor concentration, memory loss, mood changes,
mental confusion and changes in behavior. -
