[. . . ] Warmth modulates the neuronal signals to the brain and in this way reduces pain. Warming stimulates the blood circulation and dilates the blood vessels, which accelerates the transport of substances necessary to rebuild and nourish the body's tissues. Infrared light also speeds up the metabolic process and the removal of waste substances from the body. Because it makes tissues more pliable, warmth also reduces stiffness and makes joints more flexible. Because of these effects, treatment with the InfraCare can relieve pain due to muscular and joint problems. Possible applications: - Treatment for occasional or chronic muscle pains, stiff muscles and stiff joints - Treatment of lower-back ache (lumbago) - Treatment of chilblains - Preparation for another treatment such as a massage - Treatment of sprains and bruises - Treatment of common colds - To relieve pain, e.

At a distance of 25-30cm to the body, the InfraCare treats an area of about 30cm by 20cm (w x h). At a larger distance, the area treated becomes larger and the infrared light and therefore the heat less intense. At a smaller distance, the area treated is smaller and the infrared light and therefore the heat more intense. - Make sure the distance between your body and the appliance is large enough to prevent accidental contact with the hot filter. - Choose a distance at which the heat is comfortable.
