FIR, Far Infrared Ray is a natural healing process that warms deep into the muscle tissue, and the bones to relieve inflammation, and improve circulation. The heat products listed above are less than 20 dollars a piece, well worth the money.

Thermal image, known as a thermogram, of human ear in infrared Another advantage of Infrared is the Digital Infrared Camera, which is very popular in the medical field. The Digital Infrared Camera allows us to see the temperature on the skins surface. Skin lesions can be detected early before they become an issue, medical professionals have the ability to monitor the healing process of a patient, and abnormalities can be detected that other equipment could not detect. If it weren't for the Digital Infrared Camera none of this would be possible.

The infrared system can record body temperature by .01 degrees Celsius, and easily spot nerve fibre dysfunctions and soft tissue injuries. Infrared is amazing, it has even cured cancer from the use of Infrared Photo therapy, or light therapy. Breast Cancer would be far more deadly without infrared because it locates the harmful blood cells that tumors need to survive.

When Infrared technology was not accurately established many Breast Cancer patients died because the technology of mammograms only found tumors once the tumor was formed. The Japanese and Chinese clinicians have also found many medical discoveries for infrared. Asthma, and Bronchitis has been cleared up, cancer pain has been dramatically reduced, Hepatitis has been cured, the terrible menopause symptoms have lessened, acne has disappeared, sleeping pain has limited, gastritis has been relieved, whiplash, and shoulder stifness have been cured, duodenal and leg ulcers have been eliminated, the muscles and skeletal system has improved, and the list goes on.
