Using the appliance

The effect of the InfraCare

The InfraCare produces infrared light, which penetrates deeply into the skin and warms the tissues.

Warmth modulates the neuronal signals to the brain and in this way reduces pain. Warming

stimulates the blood circulation and dilates the blood vessels, which accelerates the transport of

substances necessary to rebuild and nourish the body’s tissues. Infrared light also speeds up the

metabolic process and the removal of waste substances from the body. Because it makes tissues

more pliable, warmth also reduces stiffness and makes joints more exible.

Because of these effects, treatment with the InfraCare can relieve pain due to muscular and joint

problems.
