| BENEFITS OF FAR INFRARED LIGHT |
Infrared light is an invisible part of the sun’s spectrum giving us that natural warm feeling. It has the
ability to penetrate into tissues thus providing some valuable health benefits. Infrared light is
natural, safe and is used in hospitals for newborns and in the treatment of animals by veterinarians.
It does not burn like ultraviolet light and is useful to humans.
The Far Infrared Mineral Lamp (FIM) or also called the TDP Lamp was introduced for clinical use
in China in the 1980’s. This infrared red lamp is better known as the “miracle lamp” since it has
treated millions of patients around the world. It is routinely used by athletes on a daily basis.
The TDP Mineral Lamp has won a Gold Medal in 1986 at the Zagreb International Fair in
Yugoslavia and the Silver Star at the 35th Brussels World Fair for Inventions.The TDP or FIM is
registered with Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a medical device making it legal to sell
and is acceptable for insurance billing. It is available without a prescription.
The mineral lamp is also U.L. (Underwriters Laboratory) approved for safety concerns. The Infrared
Mineral Lamp isn’t visible light nor is it in the sense of a light bulb. Rather, the lamp is a round,
black, ceramic plate coated with mineral clay consisting of 33 elements essential to the human
body. When activated by a built in heating element, the mineral plate emits a band of far-infrared
waves ranging from 2 to 25 microns in wavelengths. These levels equal the wavelength of the
electromagnetic radiation emitted by the body thus resonating and allowing the far-infrared waves
to be easily absorbed.
This energy can penetrate up to 3 inches in the body and has some positive effects to include
raising temperatures in tissues, expanding capillary vessels, rejuvenating cells, removing toxins,
reducing pain, helping the lymphatic system, improving metabolism and the immune system.
There are several models of the lamp from desk top to single or double plates. The portable
models are on wheels and are easily moved. The units have an adjustable arm and a digital timer
for convenience. Operation of the unit is simple, turn it on, set the timer and relax for the allotted
time. The mineral lamp takes only a few minutes to heat up. If the heat feels too warm, it can be
repositioned to a different comfort level by moving the arm of the unit.
An excellent book about the mineral lamp is Pain Free with Infrared Mineral Therapy by Kara Lee
Schoonover. The mineral lamp can be purchased through the internet and is an excellent device for
anyone with pain issues or who may want to assist their health.
