How does infrared light therapy for pain | DGYAO Red & Infrared Light Therapy Device

What's NIR?

Infrared light immediately follows red light on the electromagnetic spectrum. Medical Infrared (IR) light can be simply broken down into three groups:
Near Infrared, also called infrared A (IR-A). Near IR spans wavelengths 750 to 1,400 nm. It can penetrate deep into your body 5 – 10 mm (0.2 – 0.4 inches). Most home therapy devices use these wavelengths.

Mid Infrared, infrared B (IR-B) – These wavelengths are used in many household electronic devices such as remote controls.

Far Infrared, or IR-C – Far Infrared rays (FIR) are invisible and present in sunlight. Otherwise knows as radiant heat, you can’ t see it but you can feel it as heat This is the largest part of the IR spectrum. It is absorbed by surface skin and penetrates tissue which is less than 2 mm. Used in infrared saunas.

How does it work for therapy? >>>

Infrared light therapy for pain is a major breakthrough in the management of medical pain in the world. Infrared therapy uses infrared, especially near-infrared (NIR, IR-A DIN) technology to penetrate human tissues and use thermal effects to increase tissue temperature, dilat capillaries, promote blood circulation, enhance metabolism, improve cell viability and regenerative capacity.

Infrared light therapy is the light at the end of the tunnel for chronic (or acute) pain, it improves blood circulation, increases cell phagocytosis, eliminates swelling and promotes inflammation dissipation.

Near infrared light therapy is essentially the same as red light therapy, except infrared energy is invisible, and it penetrates the body deeper than red, reaching deep into soft tissues, muscles, joints, and bone.

Near infrared light therapy works exactly the same way red light therapy works. Invisible near infrared energy are absorbed by muscle, subcutaneous tissue, which results in THERMAL EFFECT.

Your body responds to this radiation heat with increased blood flow, allowing the parts of the body to receive the oxygen and nutrients they need in order to function more effectively, regeneration is stimulated.

Infrared treatment can improve blood circulation, increase phagocytosis of cells, eliminate swelling and promote inflammation dissipation when treating chronic inflammation.
