Heating pads are a common
feature of many households for general muscle pain relief as well as stress
alleviation. However, the benefits of your average heating pad can be fairly
limited when compared to infrared heating pads. In fact, over the long-term,
infrared heating pads are far superior, offering not just generic pain or
stress relief, but a whole host of other key health benefits.
Negative Ion Generation
Ions are simply molecules
carrying either a positive or negative charge. Negative ions have been proven
to create positive changes in the environment as opposed to their more harmful
positive counterparts. Negative ions are mostly found in nature close to the
seaside and other water bodies. Closer to home, negative ions can also be
generated in the shower, as the natural result of water molecules bouncing off
against each other.
Negative ions have been
found to have a profound effect on the body as well as the immediate
environment.
·
The presence
of negative ions in a room leads to a reduction of just over 50% of dust
particles, 40% of airborne viruses and up to 95% of airborne bacteria thereby
purifying the air and cleaning up environmental pollutants. Reduction of
bacteria results in rapid healing of wounds and burns
·
Exposure to
negative ions improves recovery from asthma, allergies, and other respiratory
illnesses
·
Studies have
shown positive benefits of negative ions on conditions such as migraine
headaches, depression, fatigue, poor sleep, mental and physical performance
Deeper Muscle and Tissue Therapy
Infrared heating pads are
able to penetrate depths of up to 5 to 6 inches into the body which enhances
deeper muscle and tissue therapy thereby boosting circulation and pain relief,
aiding detoxification and healing, besides relieving stress. The results of the
enhanced penetration of heat mean that the effects also tend to last for hours
afterward.
In comparison, regular
electrical heating pads offer surface deep levels of penetration and the
results tend to last just about as long as the application or up until shortly
afterward. Electrical heating pads also generate high amounts of EMF ( Electro
Magnetic Field) radiation, the same type of radiation generated by electronic
devices such as laptops and mobiles, and high voltage power lines which have
been linked to many short terms and long-term states of ill-health such as
headaches, pains, sleep disturbances, decreased sperm motility, tumors, cancers
and so, on. Infrared heating pads are considered much safer given the overall
low levels of EMF radiation. LifeMatsPRO Far Infrared Amethyst Heating Mats
have incorporated technology to ensure that EMF radiation is 100% blocked.
Amethyst for Steady, Deeply Absorbed Healing Rays
Amethyst is a naturally
occurring healing crystal which has been incorporated into LifeMatsPro Heating
Mats for strengthening their overall capacity to heal and balance, as well as
conduct steady, deeply penetrating heat. Amethyst is traditionally known as a
stone which enhances mental, emotional and physical clearing and a return to
peace and wellness. Amethyst is particularly beneficial towards healing
imbalances in the nervous system which can cause headaches, anxiety, and stress
whilst at the same time boosting mental clarity, intuition, spiritual
awareness, memory, and focus. Amethyst is also known to increase endurance and
support the body in releasing negative emotions.
