Infrared lamp
Infrared lamp designed for irradiation of the human body. The heat emitted by the lamp penetrates the body and the irradiated skin is better circulated and metabolism increases within the irradiation area. The action of infrared light stimulates healing processes.
Infrared light can be used, for example, in therapy to support the treatment of diseases of the ears, nose, throat and larynx, and as a means of supporting facial and beauty care, especially for skin problems. The heat generated by the solux lamp can also act as an adjunct in the treatment of muscle tension and colds, as it causes blood vessels to dilate, thereby improving blood circulation.
Infrared energy has beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, water and electrolyte balance, secretory function of the kidneys and many other glands. In addition, it lowers muscle tension, reduces nerve excitability and receptor sensitivity, so it has a calming and analgesic effect, and significantly accelerates metabolism.
Light therapy treatment with a lamp is used in such cases as:
- chronic inflammatory and rheumatic processes of the joints;
- post-traumatic conditions of the extremities;
- chronic inflammatory conditions of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, external ear and jaw joints;
- chronic and subacute inflammatory conditions of the peripheral nerves;
- myalgia;
- inflammation of cranial nerves II and VII;
- hemiplegia;
- frostbite;
- burns;
- contractures;
- hard-to-heal wounds;
- rosacea, juvenile acne;
- conditions after bacterial inflammation and skin damage by X-rays;
- preparation for massage, kinesitherapy and treatments using electricity.
The lamps are used in hospitals, clinics, physical therapy and cosmetic surgeries, as well as in the patient's home for direct rehabilitation.
So how does infrared have an effect on the living organism?
In biological tissue, it primarily causes thermal reactions. In contact with the skin, it results in heating and induces sweating. It has biostimulatory and health properties, hence its use for muscle pain, treatment of injuries and inflammation, and shallow circulatory disorders. With its help, conditions such as skin diseases, muscle diseases, sciatica, high blood pressure, stress, fatigue, rheumatism, headache, arthritis, insomnia, colds can be treated.
The biological effects of infrared radiation involve the action of heat, which causes, among other things:
- improvement of blood circulation in the skin and increased perspiration;
- dilatation of the capillaries of the skin and thus increased flow of arterial blood through the tissues;
- reactions on the part of the deeper vessels according to the Dastre-Morat law. This law states that "thermal stimuli (cold or heat) acting on large areas of the skin, cause the opposite behavior of the large vessels of the thorax and abdominal cavity. The vessels of the kidneys, spleen and brain show the same reaction as those of the skin."
- stimulation of metabolic processes;
- analgesic effect by raising the pain threshold;
- reducing muscle tension;
- relieving migraine attacks.
