Most back pain is caused from misalignment of the spine which causes inflammation and muscle spasms around the area. We find that by using far infrared therapy, it helps the natural process of relaxing the muscles, produces endorphins to reduce the pain and helps to restore the normal function of the spine.

Back Pain and Far Infrared Sauna Therapy
The majority of the population will suffer from back pain. 80% of the people will have some form of back pain at some point in their life. What is needed to correct that problem is finding out why they have the back pain in the first place. Most often it's because of lack of movement within the articular structures within the muscles around the back. Far infrared sauna therapy gives us a number of options to utilize. It helps reduce the pain by producing endorphins and also relaxes the muscles that are contributing to the pain. When back pain exists you will typically find the muscles will contract to protect the back which actually compounds the problem. If we can get the muscles to relax and reduce the inflammation using natural anti-inflammatories and natural endorphins which are produced from far infrared sauna therapy then the person will respond much quicker.
Far infrared sauna therapy is something that a person can use in their own home and by doing so they are able to help support the muscles in the back by relaxing them with the increased blood flow and increased flexibility. The back is being relaxed, the body is feeling that decreasing pain and people are able to modulate the intensity without increasing medication. This increased heating through far infrared saunas and the particular wavelength that is used helps to stimulate blood flow in these areas and provide a lot of localized pain relief. Since far infrared sauna therapy increases blood circulation it helps to release inflammation that is present and increases fluidity in the joints. Far infrared sauna therapy is an excellent addition to any back pain program.
