Far infrared heat has many therapeutic effects on the body due to its penetrating ability deep into the tissues. Other forms of heat or light do not penetrate as far below the surface of the body.

As the far infrared heat penetrates the skin, the light energy is transformed into thermal energy. This deep tissue heat in turn produces many health benefits such as:

• Improved circulation
• Stimulates cellular metabolism which increases oxygenation and detoxification of the cells
• Stimulates regeneration and healing
• Reduces inflammation, swelling and pain
• Increases flexibility in muscles and joints
• Provides penetrating warmth

Far infrared has gained tremendous popularity and is widely used now in many applications, from providing warmth for premature and newborn babies in incubators to adjunctive treatment in cancer therapy.

An additional and important component of the BioSmart® Far Infrared Heater is the interaction of the far infrared waves with the copper ionization panels in the heating chamber, generating beneficial negative ions which are released into the air.

Negative ions have a profoundly enhancing effect on overall health and well-being.  It is that supercharged invigorating feeling that you get when standing by a waterfall or after a rain.  It has mood enhancing properties due of it's effect on serotonin and dopamine regulation in the brain.  It helps to combat those winter time blues.

Negative ions also have a cleansing effect on the atmosphere, neutralizing pollutants such as smoke, dust, bacteria and many other pollutants.

Conventional heat sources produce just the opposite, positive ions, which cause irritation and fatigue and general malaise in the body.  Positive ions are abundant in areas where there is high pollution and smog.

The BioSmart® Far Infrared Heater not only produces the most efficient and effective heat, but it is the only heater that actually improves your overall air quality as it heats.  Besides its production of therapeutic far infrared heat and its negative ion generating ability, the BioSmart Breathe Easy models also have a built in 4-stage air purifier with an optional 5th stage gas absorption filter.

We have received some wonderful feedback from our customers with health challenges that have remarked on how better their joints feel, and how much easier their breathing is and how much less skin and sinus irritation they are experiencing, even so much as to mention that they notice a lesser incidence of colds and flu in the winter since they started heating with the BioSmart® Far Infrared Heater.

Diminished indoor air quality caused by most heaters in the winter is one reason that the body is more susceptible to colds and flu and sickness during this season.

Truly, the BioSmart® Far Infrared Heater is so much more than just an effective heater.  It provides wonderful, fresh, oxygen rich air and very comfortable, cozy, soft, natural therapeutic heat.
