Rheumatoid Arthritis
Infrared sauna may provide benefit to patients with rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. A pilot study involving the use of infrared sauna over a 4-week period resulted in short-term improvement regarding pain and stiffness, reduction in fatigue, and a trend towards long-term beneficial effects.

Alternative healing techniques incorporating
infrared pain relief methods have proved to be valuable in recent years because they are not only effective, but are also free from the typical side effects that are normally associated with conventional medication. Far Infrared Rays or FIR promotes effective healing because the rays are automatically absorbed by the skin, which consequently leads to the
removal of bodily toxins through sweat, feces and urine.

It has also been scientifically proven that FIR improves blood circulation in areas where it is administered and ultimately boosts the immune system. This means that if you include FIR as part of your daily routine, you will have fewer visits to your physician because your enhanced immunity will automatically prevent the spread of infection and the onset of viral and bacterial diseases.
