So often we
receive questions about far infrared light therapy and using it with
cancer patients. Our
experience of far infrared light therapy for cancer sufferers very much
relates to the impact that it can have on one's quality of life.With all of the people that we have worked with over the years, it is very common that people who are unwell and suffering from health challenges just do not feel good.
In addition most people tend to suffer from varying degrees of pain, fatigue and physical discomfort. There is no question that simply the experience of the Far Infrared Light Therapy leaves you with a sense of well-being.
The world can be a daunting place when you simply don't feel good on a daily basis year in year out.
That brings us to the experience of the treatment.
It is just like
being on the beach in the Sun, and I am quoting many of our clients.
The Three Essential Experiences of Far
Infrared Light Therapy
It is common
for people who try far infrared light therapy to experience three
things:
1. A sense of deep relaxation
2.
A
Feeling of Well-Being
3. Feeling
energised
After all this is normally how most of us feel when we have been in sun on a beautiful day.
Daylight
Deficiency
I emphasise
that Far Infrared is light therapy comprising invisible wavelengths of light; approximately
50% of daylight is far infrared. Also about 50% of the energy produced by your
body is far infrared.
So we all know how we feel when we are outdoors in the sunshine, we feel great.
So we all know how we feel when we are outdoors in the sunshine, we feel great.
Unfortunately
with our 21st-century lifestyle we are indoors at work, at home, we are
commuting and hence are really not exposed to daylight very often.
In reality many of us are daylight deficient; the beauty of being able to take the Far Infrared Light Therapy at home is that you are able to infuse the whole body with invisible wavelengths of Far Infrared light that you would normally only get outdoors.

The good news
is you get to experience that wonderful sense of well-being and have your
sunshine experience daily whenever you want.
All this
despite the fact that you are indoors and there is every chance it is dark,
cloudy, cold and the Sun is probably not shining……
Of course
when we feel good it is so much easier to face the daily challenges of
life.
Far Infrared for Stress Relief
Most of us
are so stressed that our nervous system is just in constant overwhelm and we
never really take the time to relax, rebalance the nervous system and basically
calm ourselves down.
There is one particular study showing how Far
Infrared Treatment can positively improve the activity of the nervous system – Improvement of autonomic
nervous activity by Waon (Far Infrared) therapy in patients with chronic heart
failure
Research is
indicating that the relaxing experience that people have with the Far Infrared
may be associated with the regulation of the autonomic nervous system helping
calm us down.
Improved Sleep
Very commonly clients report that their sleep has
improved; this normally means both the quantity and quality of sleep.
We all know how we feel when we get a really good
night’s rest; we feel refreshed and rejuvenated.
Good sleep is crucial for good health.
It may be that the improved sleep that is
experienced after Far Infrared Light Therapy is associated with the calming
effect that the Far Infrared has on the nervous system as mentioned above.
Pain Relief
So many of our client’s experience everything from
minor pains to debilitating and totally overwhelming pain.
This can be local pain and often commonly is full
body pain; meaning pain throughout the body.
We have received reports from many of our clients
explaining that they have had good experiences with our Far Infrared Light
Therapy with their pain.
What we do know is that the fact that Far Infrared
is light is a major factor with regards to penetrating deeply into the body.
It seems you get access to areas of the body that are
so often inaccessible.
The Warming Effect of Far Infrared Explained
This natural form of light penetrates the body easily and deeply
which is why it is so good at warming the deeper, harder to reach tissues of
the body.
When the cells of the body absorb the Far Infrared Light heat is
released within those cells; this is the Far Infrared warming effect.
What is so unique about this is this process does not
significantly affect the air temperature. So it is an easy way to warm the body
at comfortable low air temperatures.
Detoxification
Far Infrared Light Therapy/Saunas have been used for
detoxification programmes including the programme for the 9/11 Ground Zero Rescue and Recovery
Workers and Lower Manhattan Residents; This was known as Project Olive Releaf.
The programme was for the Treatment of High Levels of Mercury and Lead Toxicity amongst other things.
Simply it is possible to warm the body and induce
sweating at much lower and more comfortable temperatures using Far Infrared
Light Therapy.
Toxins can be liberated and released within the
sweat which can then be showered and cleaned off.
Life Extension
A JAMA report in 2015 showed that spending time in a sauna
extended the life of study participants with other illnesses including cancer.
Interestingly
according to the sauna study; a sauna two to three times per week was
associated with a 24% reduction in risk of death, and 4 – 7 saunas a week with a 40% reduced risk
of death.
A Healthy Heart & Healthy
Blood Vessels
Current
research has been showing that a major contributor to many illnesses including
Cancer is blood vessel and heart damage.
Some of the
latest research has been showing that we need the cells (Endothelial Cells)
that are lining the blood vessels to be healthy and functional.
When these
cells are healthy they promote the repair and healing of the blood vessels and
may inhibit tumour invasiveness and metastasis - Dysfunctional Blood Vessels and Cancer.
Dysfunctional
endothelial cells however, may under some circumstances stimulate cancer
invasion and metastasis.
Far Infrared
Light Therapy may have a positive effect on the health of the heart and the
blood vessels – Far Infrared for Healthy Blood Vessels
The Far
Infrared Sauna is probably the most comfortable and easiest way to warm and
heat the body.
The study is
being carried out at the University of Eastern Finland. In a 20-year follow-up,
men taking a sauna 4-7 times a week were; 66% less likely to be diagnosed with
dementia and 65% less likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease than
those taking a sauna once a week.
