Benefits of Far-Infrared Rays

A far-infrared ray refers to the infrared ray with the longest wavelength among infrared rays that are emitted from the sun or heated objects.

Light generally has the property of reflecting well if it has a short wavelength and being absorbed well when reaching an object if it has a long wavelength. Due to this property, the body becomes warmer when it is exposed to a highly penetrable far-infrared ray than the near infrared ray with a short wavelength. Moreover, far-infrared rays possess the wavelength that is most beneficial to the human body among all infrared rays.

Ex) You can hardly feel the warm energy in the 30℃ water, but when you’re sitting under the sun with the same temperature, you are able to feel its warmth. This is because far-infrared rays included in the sun create heat by deeply penetrating the skin.

Effects of Far-Infrared Rays

Our body is an organic compound with molecular frequency within 3-5㎛ wavelengths. Composed of 65- 80% moisture, it resonates well with a far-infrared ray with similar wavelengths, and a far-infrared ray even penetrates the depth of 4-5cm under the skin. Such penetration is 80 times deeper than that of regular heat and further invigorates the life activity through activating cells by minutely vibrating them over 2,000 times a minute.

Such a process generates thermal energy which discharges toxic substances, wastes, heavy metals, etc. through sweat and breaks down blood clots, offering remarkable benefits in stimulating blood circulation, cleaning the blood, slowing aging, increasing metabolism, relieving chronic fatigue, and preventing various adult diseases.

Furthermore, because a far-infrared ray eradicates bacteria that are the cause of all sorts of illnesses, it is effective for deep sleep, deodorization, antibacterial performance, prevention of mold growth, dehumidification, air purification, etc., and is therefore widely used in various fields including beddings, medical equipment, dry sauna, and housing and architecture materials.
