80% of the sun's energy is Infrared rays. Far Infrared Rays (FIR) are part of the sun’s light spectrum that is invisible to the human eye. The complete spectrum of sunlight consists of visible light that ‘we’ see and invisible rays like Xrays, microwave, infrared, gamma,etc. that we are unable to see. Far infrared light is a form of thermal energy. This is the warmth you feel penetrate your skin when you are outside in the sun. Far infrared does not cause sunburn or skin damage.

FIR waves are absorbed by the body to aid in the healing process, balance bodily circulation and activate metabolism in tissues and cells. We live in an environment of far-infrared waves. Every living thing including animals and plants receive and radiate them. In comparison to all the different types of energy which come from the sun, the FIR is the safest and the most beneficial.

Far Infrared rays (FIR). The energy mat of the Oxygen Spa SG-2000 home spa machine contains ceramic cells which emit FIR. A patented process allows the embedding of natural far infrared emitting material into ceramic cells of the energy mat.

The warm water increases the rate of FIR emission which in turn improves the quality of the water. FIR penetrates deep into the human body, where it gently elevates the body's surface temperature and activates major bodily functions: 

FIR expands capillaries which stimulates increased blood flow, regeneration, circulation and oxygenation. 

FIR is excellent for detoxification. In the FIR treatment of clogged capillary vessels, heat expands the capillaries and then initiates the start of a process to dissolve and release of toxins including heavy metals allowing for their transportation and elimination from the body. 

FIR stimulates enzyme activity and metabolism 

FIR promotes the destruction of many pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. 

FIR promotes rebuilding of injured tissue by having a positive effect on the fibroblasts (connective tissue cells necessary for the repair of injury). 

FIR strengthens the Immune System by stimulating increased production of white blood cells (leukocytes) by the bone marrow and killer T-cells by the thymus. 

FIR relieves nervous tension and relaxes auto-neuro muscles thereby helping the body make the most of its intended healing abilities.

Support For The Use of Far Infrared In Pain Management & Wellness Care

Far infrared technologies can help with heart health because it increases and strengthens the cardiovascular system. What this does is increase circulation within the body and increases your heart rate. This effectively increases your cardiac output while decreasing your diastolic pressure.
- Dr. Cory Hewko- Vernon B.C

The use of far infrared therapy for therapeutic value has formed the basis of a number of medical studies. Research findings concluded that the effects of far infrared act upon the skin's surface, blood vessels and nerves. Further, the effects of thermal energy will vary between individuals because skin is a complex material with a wide range of characteristics.
