Using the appliance

The effects of the InfraCare
The InfraCare produces infrared light, which penetrates deeply into the skin and warms the tissues.
The warmth modulates the neuronal signals to the brain and thus reduces pain. Warmth also
stimulates the blood circulation and dilates the blood vessels, which accelerates the transport of
substances necessary to rebuild and nourish the body's tissues. Furthermore, infrared light speeds up
the metabolic process and the removal of waste substances from the body. Because it makes tissue
more pliable, warmth also reduces stiffness and makes joints more flexible.
Because of these effects, treatment with the InfraCare can temporarily relieve pain due to muscle
and joint problems.
Note: Please read the 'Warning' section in chapter 'Important' and follow the instructions given there
before you use the appliance.
