There are a wide range of causes of pain in the hands, Infrared therapy is a viable option as treatment for many of these maladies. Repetitive Motion Syndrome. Raynauds Syndrome and Carpel Tunnel Syndrome to name a few are some causes of pain in these parts of your body. They present themselves as arthritic pain, muscle and joint pain and numbness in both your hand and your wrist. This can also be bilateral pain. The belief is that this is due to lack of natural infrared light.

People suffering from hand problems often battle to open jars, hold objects and generally just struggle to perform everyday tasks. Many people suffer from chronic pain and stiffness of their hands that undermine their confidence. They find it very frustrating to have to ask for help and to always have to depend on others to perform basic tasks.

Far infra therapy is a very effective treatment for conditions presenting in the hands. The far infra light penetrates the tissues of your hands gently to revitalize minute nerves, blood vessels and capillaries. This invisible far infrared light originates from the sun and is therefore natural and the body’s cells absorb the lights easily. This is called resonance absorption.

Other benefits of far infra therapy for your hands include increased circulation and faster blood flow. Blood vessels and capillaries are rejuvenated and nerves restored. Your fingers will no longer be stiff and joints less painful. Your hands will also warm up quicker and stay warm longer during cold winter months. Softer skin, stronger nails, more flexibility and increased grip in your hands make far infra therapy worth a try!

The sun emits far infrared therapy rays that are not visible to the human eye, but have such incredible healing properties. Whilst sun exposure lets us reap these benefits free of charge, the Ultraviolet Rays speed up the aging process and causes other damage including cancer. Due to this, we don’t get the benefit of far infrared therapy by sunbathing. One way you might benefit from this is through saunas. Sauna benefits may be similar to this.

The required dose of far infra light is four to fourteen microns. Unfortunately we do not receive these dosages due smog, pollution and blockage caused by high rise buildings. All these hinder the process of absorbing the therapeutic rays.

Scientists have discovered that light absorbed by the body can cause hormonal imbalance. There is rapid chain reaction that takes place in our body and this ultimately affects how we behave. The endocrine system function is dependant on light.

Infrared therapy is also sometimes called photo therapy, light therapy, infrared light therapy, LED therapy or Pulsed Light therapy (IPL).

There have been innumerable clinical trials and research done to ensure the safety and validity of infra therapy. Tests have proven without a shadow of doubt that infrared therapy does in fact ease pain and improve circulation, This benefit extends to amongst other conditions, pain, numbness and chronic wounds.
