Science Behind Infrared and Red/ Blue Light Therapy
What is the Richway Biomat?
The RichWay Biomat infrared treatment is the pad you lay on which is filled with Amethyst, Obsidian and Tourmaline lined channels. These stones and special layers inside the BioMat emit Far Infrared Rays and Negative Ions. These help to relieve pain, detox the body and stimulate weight loss, while blocking harmful the EMFs (Electromagnetic Fields) caused by most electrically powered heating devices.
Why is Far Infrared so effective?
Far infrared rays are part of the electromagnetic spectrum that has been studied for various health benefits. It provides warmth and relaxation similar to the energy that radiates from the sun. These rays not only benefit muscles on the surface of the body, but all cells and bodily tissues in the deepest parts of the body. The warm stimulating waves temporarily increase local circulation. This deep tissue heating relaxes the muscles and tissues surrounding the joints relieving pain and discomfort. Great for lower back pain.
Infrared treatment light penetrates to the inner layers of the skin at about 2 to 7 centimeters deep reaching the fat layers stimulating weight loss as opposed to a heating pads mere .75cms. Hence, it reaches the muscles, nerves and even the bones.
Benefits of Negative Ions
When heated, amethyst naturally emits negative ions. Negative ions remove toxins from the body and deliver oxygen and nutrients to the bloodstream, resulting in numerous health benefits only found in the Richway far infrared biomat infrared treatment.
Why Amethyst?
When energized and heated, amethyst naturally emits negative ions and the Far Infrared rays.
Metaphysically amethyst has been known to stimulate, and soothe the mind and emotions. It activates the “crown chakra” & “third eye chakra” which are the gateways to expand oneself spiritually and to the expanded universe beyond our bodies. These chakras are largely connected to our dream state which may be why amethyst is considered an excellent stone to assist in sleeping.
Obsidians Function
The Obsidian in Richway far infrared biomat amplifies the properties amethyst & tourmaline and is a natural pain reliever. Pseudoscience says it blocks geopathic stress and environmental pollution.
Metaphysically , Obsidian is a very protective stone, and is excellent in removing negative energy on the physical and emotional level. It clears the psychic smog from your aura while protecting you from psychic attacks. It grounds you to the earth thru the base chakra, and repels unloving thoughts.
Black Tourmaline
Black Tourmaline is highest producer of negative ions and can generate negative ions even when not heated. Typically produces 1500+ negative ions per cubic centimeter when heated.
Known as the electric stone, Black Tourmaline generates natural Infrared heat. It radiates energy at 8-13 Hz per second which is the identical frequency as our brains alpha waves. This can bring our minds into an alpha state much more quickly than normal. The alpha state of the brain can reduce anxiety, bring calmness, increase energy while reducing fatigue, improve mood and is ideal for mediation.
Counteracts the effects of unnatural/ high frequency electromagnetic fields thru its release of negative ions only found in the Richway far infrared biomat
Red Light Therapy and Infrared Treatments
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Written by Camille Noe Pagán
Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a treatment that may help skin, muscle tissue, and other parts of your body heal. It exposes you to low levels of red or near-infrared light. Infrared light is a type of energy your eyes can’t see, but your body can feel as heat. Red light is similar to infrared, but you can see it.
Red light therapy is also called low-level laser therapy (LLLT), low-power laser therapy (LPLT), and photobiomodulation (PBM).
How Does Red Light Therapy Work?
With red light therapy, you expose your skin to a lamp, device, or laser with a red light. A part of your cells called mitochondria, sometimes called the “power generators” of your cells, soak it up and make more energy. Some experts think this helps cells repair themselves and become healthier. This spurs healing in skin and muscle tissue.
Red light therapy uses very low levels of heat and doesn’t hurt or burn the skin. It’s not the same type of light used in tanning booths, and it doesn’t expose your skin to damaging UV rays.
What Does It Treat?
Researchers have known about red light therapy for a while. But there aren’t a lot of studies on it, and they don’t know if it’s better than other types of treatment used to help you heal. Red light therapy may help with:
- Dementia. In one small study, people with dementia who got regular near-infrared light therapy on their heads and through their noses for 12 weeks had better memories, slept better, and were angry less often.
- Dental Pain. In another small study, people with temporomandibular dysfunction syndrome (TMD) had less pain, clicking, and jaw tenderness after red light therapy.
- Hair Loss. One study found that men and women with androgenetic alopecia (a genetic disorder that causes hair loss) who used an at-home RLT device for 24 weeks grew thicker hair. People in the study who used a fake RLT device didn’t get the same results.
- Osteoarthritis. One study found red and infrared light therapy cut osteoarthritis-related pain by more than 50%.
- Tendinitis. A very small study of 7 people suggests RLT lessens inflammation and pain in people with Achilles tendinitis.
- Wrinkles and other signs of skin aging and skin damage. Research shows RLT may smooth your skin and help with wrinkles. RLT also helps with acne scars, burns, and signs of UV sun damage.
What Are the Risks?
Red light therapy is generally considered safe, even though researchers aren’t exactly sure how and why it works. And there are no set rules on how much light to use. Too much light may damage skin tissue, but too little might not work as well.
