Improves Skin
Far Infrared treatment helps improve general skin tone through increased blood circulation and low temperature perspiration. An increase in blood circulation encourages a healthy flow of nutrients to your skin that in turn helps relieve acne, eczema and psoriasis. It will also encourage the healing of lesions, minor cuts, burns and scarring. Light, unnoticeable perspiration helps purge clogged pores of deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells, leaving the skin feeling fresh and glowing.
Health
Today many of us experience constant mental, physical and environmental stress which is a sure fire recipe for poor health. The constant stress of modern living has resulted in Fatigue, Exhaustion, Weakened Immune function, Toxicity, Poor Digestion and an overall decline in health.
The body produces nearly 50% of its energy in the form of Far Infrared energy for the purpose of healing, repair and regeneration of the body.

Detoxification using Far Infrared Therapy
The build up of toxins in a healthy body can impair normal blood circulation, reduce our energy levels and are often at the core of many health problems. These Toxins that have accumulated in the body are encapsulated by clusters of water. As far Infrared light is applied to the body these water molecules and toxins breakdown into smaller elements. These are easily eliminated and released from the body. A thorough detoxification occurs and optimum energy levels are restored.
The Far Infrared will have energised the deep body tissues improving blood flow in the surrounding areas increasing oxygen delivery as well as more rapid removal of any localised toxins.
A far Infrared Healthcare programme also promotes elimination of fats, chemicals and toxins from the blood including:
- Poisons and carcinogenic heavy metals
- Toxic Substances from food processing
- Lactic acid, free fatty acids
- Subcutaneous fat associated with ageing and fatigue
- Excess sodium associated with Hypertension
- Uric Acid which causes pain.
What are Far Infrared Rays (FIR)
Far Infrared rays are invisible light that was discovered by a scientist named Sir William Herschel in 1800, he found out that Far Infrared Rays are a spectrum of sunlight.
This research led to the discovery that there were not only the known visible rays of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet plus the invisible rays, Gamma and Ultraviolet but also a previously unknown ray was later named Infrared.
About 80% of sunlight is made up of Far Infrared Rays. This band of light is not visible but can be felt as heat.
The Far Infrared Energy is absorbed very easily by the human body and helps in all aspects of bodily growth and development. Far Infrared Energy is very healing and rejuvenating. It energises the cells, inner tissues, glands, nerves and organs beneath the skin.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi, Nobel Prize winner and the discoverer of Vitamin C, believed that all energy from the sun has profound effects on us. His research showed that light can literally alter the body's basic biological functions.
Far Infrared Rays are Safe and Beneficial
Among the total spectrum of solar rays coming from the sun the Far Infrared Rays are the safest and the most beneficial.
Can the Far Infrared Healthcare System harm me in any way?
By using the system you will bring your immune system into balance, your body will function more efficiently and your health will improve.
Can Far Infrared damage healthy cells whilst eliminating unhealthy cells?
No, the treatment revitalizes normal cells and stimulates the healing and repair of unhealthy cells.
How Far Infrared Rays (FIR) work
The Intensity of the FIR produced by the human body constantly fluctuates. When its intensity is high we feel healthy and are able to overcome ailments. When the FIR begin to decline, we are subject to attacks of illness and tend to age more quickly.
Far Infrared treatment stimulates cellular metabolism which increases the body's regenerative ability and helps restore the proper function of the nervous system, When any tissue in the body is exposed to FIR the body's healing processes are activated.
Studies suggest Far Infrared energy helps to maintain general health and prevent disease. FIR rays are capable of penetrating deep into the human body, gently expanding capillaries and stimulating blood circulation.
So FIR rays stimulate the production of cell tissue and rapidly promote the regeneration of skin and blood tissue.
How does Far Infrared Healthcare System improve so many different conditions?
- Stress is known to impair the functioning of the immune system. Far Infrared Energy promotes a state of deep relaxation and a sense of wellbeing which reduces the effects of stress and help to boost the immune system.
- By expanding capillaries, stimulating the blood circulation and increasing the metabolic exchange between blood and tissue, which in turn beings the immune system into balance.
What is a healing Crisis?
A healing crisis occurs when the process of detoxification causes toxins to be released faster than they can be eliminated. This may be experienced as aches and pains, or general uneasiness. When this happens, tell the Melville Clinic and avoid further treatment for a couple of days. When you feel comfortable and the excess toxins have been eliminated you may then resume your programme.
Far Infrared Rays are Waves of Energy
Far Infrared Rays are waves of energy that are healing and rejuvenating. These invisible rays posses great penetrative power and are able to reach into the cells, inner tissues, glands, nerves and organs beneath the skin. The rays gently elevate the body's temperature and activate major bodily functions.
Over 30 million people worldwide have successfully received Infrared treatments. Health and medical professionals in Germany, Japan and Canada have been successfully using infrared systems to rehabilitate and treat a multitude of ailments.
Far Infrared and Detoxification of the Blood Vessels
Scientists in Japan report that in the Far Infrared treatment of clogged capillary vessels, heat expands the capillaries and then initiates the start process to dissolve hidden toxins.
Far Infrared Healthcare System and Healthy Arteries
When normally smooth, firm lining of the arteries becomes thickened and roughened by deposits of fat, fibrin, calcium and cellular debris, it lessens the arteries ability to expand and contract, and slows the blood movement through narrowed channels. These conditions make it
How do you know if you need Detoxification?

Psychological symptoms of Toxic Overload include:
Poor Concentration, memory loss, mood changes, mental confusion and changes in behaviour.
Research conducted by US Scientists has demonstrated that close to 80% of individuals with chronic fatigue syndrome will improve with a detoxification programme'
In Germany, physicians in an independently developed form have used whole body infrared therapy for over 80years. Far Infrared treatments have also been successfully used in Japan for over 40 yrs and more recently in hospitals in Canada.
Relax and Get Fit
Extensive research by NASA in the early 1980's led to the conclusion that far infrared stimulation of cardiovascular function would be ideal way to maintain cardiovascular fitness in American astronauts during long space flight.
The beauty of this system is that even those who are infirm and immobile can obtain many of the benefits of physical exercise simply by lying back, relaxing and receiving Far Infrared Light treatment. The result is that energy levels can be restored leaving you feeling vital, alert and totally energised.
