FIR Domes & Chi Machine
Far-Infrared rays are waves of energy, invisible to the naked eye, which penetrate the surface of the skin where they gently elevate the body’s surface temperature whilst positively activating body systems and functions. Far Infrared is the 'chi' energy in humans and animals, also emitted from sunlight. However, sunlight contains ultra-violet rays which can burn the skin, but pure Far-Infrared heat emitted from healing units (such as our domes) does not contain ultra-violet rays and will never damage our skin.
The Chi Machine maintains and promotes general health of the body via passive physical stimulation, with no side effects, no drugs, no invasive procedures, no risk of injury. Daily movement of the body is the foundation of health and wellness on multiple levels.
The Chi Machine was created to enable the human body to gently sway from side to side, whilst lying down, in a figure of eight (the same way a goldfish swims). There is absolutely no pressure or stress to the body as in traditional forms of high impact, vigorous exercise. Your heartbeat and blood pressure does not increase and there is no stress on your back, spine, joints, muscles, ligaments, heart or lungs and therefore, there is no risk of injury.

We use the Far Infrared Dome’s and the Chi Machine in combination therapy. The results are extramental! When Far Infrared’s intensity is increased, we feel healthy and our bodies are able to overcome ailments. When the Far Infrared (FIR) begins to decline, we are more easily prone to disease and illness and tend to age more quickly. Scientific evidence has found that heat can maintain and enhance the wellness of the human body. Far Infrared is an effective, safe, natural, hygienic, and efficient approach to thermal treatment. Today there are multiple health and medical professionals worldwide who rehabilitate and treat numerous physical challenges using Far Infrared for humans as well as animals. The benefits of FIR technology are truly phenomenal beyond the initial feelings of well-being and relaxation.

FIR Benefits Summary:

Improves blood circulation, skin complexion and detoxification
Far Infrared detoxifies the body by eliminating unwanted chemicals, toxins, poisons, carcinogenic heavy metals (toxic substances from food processing) lactic acid, subcutaneous fat associated with aging and fatigue, excess sodium (associated with hypertension) and uric acid which causes pain. Furthermore, if sebaceous glands are activated, accumulated cosmetics in pores can be eliminated through the skin (sweat and oil glands) rather than by the kidneys. Where toxins accumulate, blood circulation is reduced and cellular energy is impaired. Elimination begins when an 8-10 micron Far-Infrared wave is applied to these large water molecules and the water begins to vibrate. This vibration reduces the ion bonds of the atoms that are holding together the molecules of water. As the vibration continues, breakdown of the water molecules occurs and encapsulated gases and other toxic materials are released.
Strengthens cardiovascular system
By increasing heart rate and cardiac output, decrease diastolic blood pressure. Extensive research by NASA in the early 1980's led to the conclusion that far infrared stimulation of cardiovascular function would be the ideal way to maintain cardiovascular conditioning in American astronauts during long space flight. FIR and the gentle tissue warming has also been shown to help improve the ‘health’ of the cells that line our blood vessels, which, if left untreated, may increase the risk of heart disorders.
Wound healing
Promotes rebuilding of injured tissue by having a positive effect on the fibroblasts (connective tissue cells necessary for the repair of injury). Furthermore, it increases cell growth, DNA and protein synthesis that is crucial during tissue repair and regeneration. FIR is excellent for healing burns, scar tissue and skin problems such as acne and skin breakouts – anti-aging effects and lessening/softening of wrinkles due to enhanced collagen production.
Relaxation and pain management
As cells and muscle fibres are heated, tension is relieved, blood circulation increases thus making the most of the body’s healing abilities. As a result, rapid reduction of swelling, inflammation and associated pain occurs. Far infrared induces the production of beta-endorphins thus promoting the feeling of relaxation. FIR reduces levels of inflammation as measured by c-reactive proteins.
Immunity support
FIR strengthens the Immune System by stimulating the production of white blood cells (leukocytes) by the bone marrow and killer T-cells by the thymus. Natural killer cells in the immune system are crucial to effective immune defense. Hyperthermia releases a bunch of cytokines and other heat shock proteins which make cancer cells and virus infected cells more immunogenic, that means they are better recognized by the immune system.
Cancer support
Far Infrared helps the elimination process of many pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites, that may play a role in the development of certain cancers. Far-Infrared Thermal Therapy may provide support in the destruction of malignant cells which supposedly cannot survive if the temperature of the cell becomes 42C and above. Hyperthermia is used worldwide by hospitals and thermal oncologists. Hyperthermia is acknowledged and attested to by the American Cancer Association and the National Cancer Institute on their respective websites. Targeting the disease and its macro environment is a modern goal. One of these targets is the blocking of tumor angiogenesis (the growth of blood vessels that feed tumors). Blocking the formation of vessels slows down cancer growth, facilitating apoptosis – programmed cancer cell death. This prevents tumor metastases or cancer spreading throughout the body.
Who should use the Chi Machine?
Everyone! Benefits for all ages, sizes and all lifestyles in between.
Why this will benefit the active person:
The Chi Machine promotes enhanced performance and mental focus. Increased oxygen promotes dissipation of lactic acid from sore muscles if used after a workout session or as a warm-up before physical exercise.
Why this will benefit… a less active person:
If you work in front of a computer all day and suffer from fatigue, have muscle pain or have disrupted sleep patterns, physically exhausted, on your feet all day, commuting for long distances, have children who lack mental focus… The Chi Machine makes a difference, both emotionally, mentally and physically. It is passive exercise with exceptional benefits and zero effort, you just have to show up!
Why this will benefit the physically challenged, our elders, wheelchair bound or bedridden:
Due to its low impact operation, the Chi Machine is extremely valuable to those who have reduced activity. The gentle motion of the machine and the additional oxygen which stimulates mental focus is extremely beneficial. The machine temporarily relieves muscle aches and pains enabling our elders to be more comfortable and mobile, both mentally and physically.
