The Richway Amethyst BioMat
Question #1: What is The BioMat?
The BioMat is an FDA licensed medical device that combines state of the art Far Infrared Light (or FIR) and Negative Ion Technology with the healing power of Amethyst Crystal.
Question #2: What is "Far Infrared Light"?
Far infrared rays are part of the electromagnetic light spectrum and are close to the light frequency of natural sunlight. However, far infrared does not contain any of sunlight?s harmful UV/UVB radiation. The beneficial properties of far infrared light have received particular attention from the scientific community in recent years, ?although the first research conducted on this part of the light spectrum was undertaken by NASA several decades ago. More recent studies show that far infrared light stimulates the production of healthy cell tissue, which can promote faster, more complete healing processes. Far infrared therapy also encourages the elimination of cellular waste and toxins.
Question #3: What are Negative Ions?
We've all been somewhere out in nature, either at the beach, the mountains, just after a good rain, and smelled the difference in the air. What you are smelling is an abundance of Negative Ions, or "fresh air". We almost never feel depressed in these environments and there's a reason for that. There are molecules in the air that are negatively charged ions, or anions, that are depleted when in a polluted environment like a big city.
Immersing oneself into an environment rich in Negative Ions has come to be recognized as a viable and health benefit rich therapy. Negative Ion Therapy is recognized to treat many ailments, including depression, stress, and exhaustion. It helps fight off infections, enhances brain performance, heals burns quicker and relieves pain and headaches. Negative Ion Therapy will also purify your blood, reviving cells and thus strengthening your immune system, controlling the autonomic nervous system and the revitalization of cell metabolism.
Question #4: Why Amethyst Crystals?
Amethyst crystals cover the entire surface of the BioMat. Scientists discovered that Amethyst was able to deliver high frequency and powerful far-infrared light waves and FIR passed through Amethyst changes its spectrum and organizes the FIR into geometrical patterns giving it a higher bio availability. Korean researchers suggest that the use of Amethyst increases the body's utilization of the light.
Question #5: What is the difference between a regular heating pad and The BioMat?
The answer lies in the ability of the heat to penetrate deeply into the human body. Regular heat has difficulty penetrating past the superficial surface of the body. Far Infrared Light (or FIR) through Amethyst Crystals has the ability to penetrate up to 6" and generates intense frictional heat by stimulating our cells to actually move. Other FIR systems only penetrate to a depth of 2-3".
Question #6: What sort of benefits do I get from using the BioMat?
Because the BioMat?s far infrared rays penetrate deeply into the body and address imbalances at the cellular level, it can be used to affect a wide range of health issues, including:
- Relieves minor muscle pain in areas where applied
- Increases blood circulation in areas where applied
- Reduces stress and fatigue
- Soothes and relaxes
- Eases minor joint pain, and stiffness
- Supports the immune system
- Improved sleep (if associated with pain relief)
- Reduced inflammation (where applied)
- Increased tissue oxygen (due to increased circulation where applied)
- Minor muscular back pain
- Temporary relief of sprains and strains
- Temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness
- Temporary relief of joint pain associated with arthritis
- Temporary relief of muscle spasms
- Temporary increase of local circulation where applied
- Relaxation of muscles
- Promotes relaxation by application of heat
- Promotes restful sleep for those with occasional sleeplessness
