Infrared Lamp - Medical Grade

Infrared therapy helps reduce sun damage, improve joint health, reduce scars, prevent chronic and recurring cold sores, and relieve inflammation
Effects of infrared light
Analgesic (pain reliever): exposure to infrared heat produces muscle relaxation, increasing its elasticity. Reduces spasms and muscle fatigue. The intensity of the analgesic effect depends on the temperature, time of application and the patient.
Vasodilation: there is an increased blood flow into the treatment area. Furthermore, in the rest of the body there is also dilation of the veins and arteries, and the heart rate increases.
Decreased blood pressure: blood vessels dilate causing blood pressure to drop.
Cell revitalisation: heat activates the metabolic processes improving cellular nutrition.
Reduces blood clotting and there is greater lymphatic supply to tissues. Meaning, defenses increase: more pathogens are resorbed, increases bactericidal and anti-inflammatory action.
Increased surface temperature: there may be some sweating. The skin of the treated area will increase its permeability and sensitivity of nerve endings will reduce.
Infrared heat therapy treatment duration ranges from 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the selected intensity and the effect to be achieved. The professional must choose the right time according to the treatment and there should be continuous monitoring, because an excess of infrared light can cause dizziness due to low blood pressure.

Also, heat therapy shouldn’t be used when the patient suffers from inflammatory conditions, bruised muscles and joints, nor when the patient suffers from a vascular disease.
