Movement and Light Therapy
There are two additions to my massage therapy that I want to tell you about. Both additions are totally relaxing and therapeutic as well.
The first device causes the body to move in a figure eight pattern that is very relaxing and stimulating at the same time. This device helps move energy through the body and awakens the circulation. If you find you are unable to exercise, this device is a good full-body exercise. It improves circulation while oxygenating the tissues which may be therapeutic for many chronic and acute diseases. Both devices are Class 1 medical devices approved by the FDA.
I'm on week four of working with Far-Infrared (FIR) light therapy and am finding it to be the best thing going for aches and pains.
There is something about the light from far infrared that causes the relaxation effect to kick in. One person had this to say: "I am actually trying not to relax and am finding it impossible. I'm tensing my muscles but it's like my body is incapable of being tense." The effect of the accompanying heat is that one feels as though you're on the beach under a warm summer sun somewhere. Close your eyes and you can imagine yourself anywhere warm. I can't get enough. The FIR has actually made the winter tolerable. I don't care how much it snows. I have my FIR.
As for pain. This has been my scenario. I go to bed, put the dome over me and read for awhile. I fall asleep and any aches or pain my body felt is gone by morning. Sometime during that first hour under the dome I become very warm from inside my body. That is the effect of raising the metabolic rate which allows the burn off of around 900 calories. At times it feels like I'm burning up. That lasts for only a little while then goes back to being very comfortable heat. I haven't slept this great in ages.
While using it on massage patients they notice their muscles relax much quicker than ever before during massage. Some people just fall asleep under the soothing heat. Most say they can feel the pulsating effect of the light on their muscles. Talk about relaxing!
Both devices have the ability to be used in conjunction or separate to bring about balance to chronic health problems such as: endometriosis, Cerebral Palsy, Lupus, Stroke, Swollen ankles, trauma, primary and secondary lymphoedema, insomnia, headaches, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, energy depletion, Diabetes, depression, Hypertension, skin problems, cardiac disease, Prostate cancer, cancer, back pain, Arthritis, Sciatica, stress, wounds, weight loss, Scoliosis.
The testimonials to the effects of therapy from Far Infrared light therapy are too numerous to list. Call for an appointment to experience the effects of both of these devices and see for yourself how wonderful they make you feel.
