Infrared therapy

Light has a huge impact on the condition, well-being and human health. The use of radiation in the treatment of health ailments is a popular and very effective therapeutic method based on the physical properties of radiation waves.

How do IR-A and IR-B help?

Tissue overheating occurs through radiation without direct contact and energy conduction. Radiation in the IR-A and IR-B range effectively affects muscle relaxation and increases local blood supply. This effect translates into improved tissue nutrition and increased metabolism. The relaxation effect is very commonly used in physiotherapy centers as a preparatory phase for both therapeutic and relaxing massage. Infrared radiation is widely used as a pre-treatment before post-isometric relaxation and muscle stretching, joint mobilization and passive excercises in connective tissue contractures, manual massage and kinesitherapy exercises. Congestion and increase in skin temperature improve its electrical conductivity, which is an indication for performing radiation treatments before electrotherapy. The application of radiation in the IR-A range causes thermal erythema – a local reaction occurring on the skin, caused by the expansion of blood vessels. It consists of irregular redness of the skin, formed during irradiation and disappears shortly after the treatment procedure.

Safety of treatments

The filters used in the sollux Lumina lamp, which are used to change the radiation spectrum, adjust the penetration of IR rays and limit the thermal properties of irradiation, and have been equipped with a safety mesh protecting them against damage. This makes phototherapy with the Lumina lamp safe for patients.
