The possibility of forgetting about the dangers of things that are not visible is very likely. In this case, Far-infrared provides certain benefits that all centre around the user's general wellness; The gemstone from your mat releases the "far infrared" rays when heated. The release of FIR increases with every temperature rise.

We feel a ripple effect from within our skin during sunny days, especially when coming into contact with the sun due to the infrared rays invisible to the human eye. Plants use these rays as it is difficult to photosynthesize and even feed without them. Plants and humans are dependent on FIR. However, while one is essential for the food chain, the other benefits because it helps improve general wellness, not to mention the warm feeling it creates in the human skin or, better still, body. There have been countless discoveries on how best to utilize FIR for the benefit of the human body.
As you may know, there is a growing trend away from medication and towards natural remedies. This is why FIR infrared therapy has some immense benefits, as it can do a couple of things for you. However, we have some of the benefits that you might find worth needing. Some of the benefits are:

Benefits

1. FIR Improves Overall Wellness: One of the benefits is that overall wellness is greatly improved, especially for chronic pains relief and boosting mood. Over the years, chronic pain patients have been treated using thermal therapy. At the university of Nishi Kyushu, Japan, researchers found how infrared sauna heat therapy could make people function and overall wellbeing. So, in essence, FIR eliminates tension and brings about a more relaxed body and mind, void of stress.

2. FIR improves detoxification: Another benefit of FIR therapy is that it helps lymphatic cleansing and detoxification. As you know, poor blood circulation allows toxins to accumulate. FIR facilitates the elimination of fats, chemicals, and toxins from the blood. Lastly, FIR is a safe, drug-free tool for detoxification, and it is more effective than conventional heat or the steam sauna.

3. FIR helps with wound healing: FIR therapy can heal a wound at a rapid rate. Some clinical, scientific studies carried out in Japan made it more compelling how FIR could heal wounds without having to depend on skin temperatures or even blood flow changes. One interesting thing to know about FIR regarding wound healing is that DNA synthesis, cell growth, and protein synthesis are duly supported. FIR will also accelerate the recovery from burns, skin breakouts, and even skin problems.

4. Blood circulation and skin complexion are improved: Far-infrared supports healthy lung function. Plus, capillaries are expanded, which stimulates oxygen and regeneration, increased blood flow, and lastly, circulation. In addition, there are skin benefits when the sebaceous glands are activated. The pores are being displaced through the skin, hence making way for brighter and clearer skin.

5. Recovery from Minor pains and stiffness because of FIR: FIR treatment has been credited in various ways that can benefit one's health and general quality. Interestingly, there are two main ways that it is made possible. They are Infrared mats and Infrared Saunas. In the case of Infrared mats, convenience and, therefore, repeatability of treatment is highly beneficial for chronic or day to day recovery of stiffness and joint pain. Mats can also be slept on to facilitate the speedy recovery overnight. Mats trump Infrared saunas due to the convenience and repeatability of home use: inflammation and joint pain.

6. FIR Can provide comfort for chronic fatigue patients: Aside from minor pain relief, People dealing with chronic fatigue syndrome can witness an improvement in the quality of their life because of FIR therapy. There has been much research on how efficient FIR can be to those with Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and all the findings point to FIR therapy on dramatic improvements for CFS patients. Not in the least of these improvements is the ability to sleep pain-free.

PEMF has continued to witness a steady increase in popularity due to its natural approach to wellness maintenance, which is a fundamental reason to know its possible hazards and safety measures. PEMF, when appropriately used, is a top-notch wellness-enhancing process; however, only a few are aware of how it operates, which further means that even a lesser number know how to use it effectively.

Definition and Insight into what PEMF is:

Pulsed electromagnetic field systems, as they are so-called, produce magnetic frequencies from an electrical current. It is no new information that electric pulses are present throughout the human body, from heartbeats to blood vessels. Therefore, one can easily conclude that PEMF can impact bodily function. PEMF, on a cellular level, are capable of stimulating both molecules and tissues in other to improve general wellness. MRI machines are known to be a common source of PEMF exposure, plus they also have one of the most vigorous PEMF intensities to which humans are usually exposed.

While it is necessary to know what it means, it is also essential to understand its application method. There are two main topics of concern to note about PEMF: exposure time and the level of intensity you receive its waves. There are numerous studies and scientific evidence based on the effectiveness of PEMF for various illnesses, and these studies don't show any evidence of side effects or hazards to human wellbeing.

Appropriate Exposure and Frequency

There are numerous PEMF devices available on the market that utilize various waveforms, intensities, and frequencies. It can be a complex process, especially when trying to determine which is the most efficient. Electromagnetic frequencies are usually measured in Hertz, and different cell types generally respond to the other frequencies. In some instances, the human body is generally with a more reduced frequency, especially for therapeutic wellness effects. However, both the human body and Earth can produce their frequencies, which is why Recovery System mats are made to create a frequency of 7.8 Hz, which mimics the frequency the Earth releases.

The 7.8 Hz frequency is mostly in tune with the human body's bio-rhythm. It receives an efficient response rate which in turn provides accurate results for maintaining wellness levels. Cellular communication usually occurs at a more reduced level which is why it needs lesser energy levels to aid and increase general cell function and wellness. PEMF Recovery systems also use a sinusoidal wavelength in other to deliver its frequency. This waveform serves as one of the numerous options available. One of the reasons why it was chosen for our product is because it has a more reduced intensity, which enhances processes in the body.

How to use PEMF

If you own a mat equipped with the PEMF function, it is advisable to use it daily. Using it consistently will bring about notable results over time. PEMF is advantageous, especially in lowering electrical interference in every part of the human body to ensure proper functionality. PEMF can be used for any time duration; however, 20 to 30 minutes is required to attain a full day's worth of benefits. This is a way of ensuring that users receive the necessary exposure daily.
You can never be too exposed to PEMF; it has further been established that the more chronic the issue, the longer the user is required. Their extended sessions aid in alleviating more severe problems at a much faster rate. By directing the PEMF towards the affected area to get desired results. Full body sessions are necessary, especially when using the mat for general wellness maintenance, as they simplify the entire process.
Even if you are feeling better, you don't have to stop. While it is beneficial to suppress your symptoms, there is however still much work to be done. Continuous use of your PEMF from this point will aid in ensuring that the reason for the problem is handled and for the efficient maintenance of your wellness down the line. In situations of more severe illnesses, it is advisable to continue with PEMF therapy indefinitely as many of them are terminal illnesses.

Ever gone to a beach? Remember how you closed your eyes, and all seemed well with the world? What about your last climb on a mountain and the adventure to a fall? Remember the tranquillity? It is not a coincidence that there are negative ions at work! Apart from the slow-down and relaxation you get from getting away from your routine, negative ions on the beach and mountains make you feel good. Nature is an excellent energy source. Naturally occurring elements (like water, air, sunlight, radiation from the Earth) produce invisible negative ions that help improve your health and all-around wellness.

What are negative ions?

An atom or molecule which loses or gains one or more electrons are referred to as an ion. Ions electrically charge a neutral atom or molecule. Positive ions occur in atoms and molecules that have lost one or more electrons, while negative ions occur in atoms and molecules that have gained one or more electrons. An example of a negative ion is an oxygen molecule O2 that has gained one more electron to form O2-.

The air that we breathe has a balance between positive and negative ions. However, in natural spaces like the beach, waterfalls, mountains, the extra rush of water and air releases free electrons that bind to the oxygen in the air and create negative oxygen ions. Other sources of negative ions include thunderstorms. A shower is an artificial source of negative ions, as the colliding of water particles during a heavy stream produces extra electrons that bind with the air. Negative ions calm and refresh the body and mind.
Technology, noise, artificial light, clutter, waste, smoke, and many other things reduce negative ions in the air. When negative ions are reduced, positive ions take root. Unlike negative ions, positive ions are harmful and toxic to our bodies. Positive ions in the air spread diseases, airborne viruses. Most of our living and working spaces do not have sufficient negative ions, so positive ions are prevalent. Positive ions cause headaches, migraines, stress, inability to relax, and a general decrease in energy and mood.

There are very many tremendous health benefits of negative ions, some of which are.

● Cleans air and aids breathing

Positive ions in the environment cause pollution and contaminate the air. Negative ions bind to positive ions in the air to neutralize their effect and clear the air. There is also a decrease in toxic components, dust, smoke, pollen, and airborne diseases with negative ions. Clean and fresh air reduces your chances of contracting an airborne illness, as well as improves your overall health and wellbeing.

● Aids breathing

The cilia in our trachea function to filter out foreign particles and airborne diseases from the lungs. Negative ions assist the cilia by filtering out the foreign particles before it gets to the cilia. The less work the cilia must do, the easier breathing is. The easier it is to breathe, the cleaner oxygen gets to the organs of the body. Symptoms like cough, sneeze, wheeze and throat irritation are eliminated. They also reduce and neutralize triggers and allergies in people with respiratory conditions like asthma. In an environment with negative ions, seasonal outbreaks like the flu are less prevalent.

● Helps with rest

The benefit of sleep on the body is critical to health. The average adult should to sleep for at least 8 hours per night. Adequate sleep and rest renew the body for daily tasks and prevents stress. Research shows Negative ions improve sleep and aid proper rest. Negative ions improve the production of serotonin, which improves the ability of the body to rest and refresh. A well-rested body is a healthy body, able to perform activities of daily living and still have enough energy for fun.

● Improved brain functioning

Extended use of modern technology (like your phone, computer, iPad) produces electromagnetic frequencies that are dangerous for health. These frequencies are leading causes of headaches and migraines. The electromagnetic frequencies also cause mental exhaustion and reduce focus and attentiveness. Negative ions reduce the effect of electromagnetic frequencies and optimize brain functioning. Negative ions also reduce headaches and migraines. A 16-week study by the Surrey University showed up to 78% reduction in headaches when an artificial negative ionic emitting machine was installed in the Norwich Union company. Concentration, alertness, and increased performance in tasks are also seen in environments with sufficient negative ions. Negative ions also increase blood flow and oxygen to the brain, improving fast reasoning and enabling problem-solving skills. The use of negative ion emitters in hospitals increases the healing rate in patients with brain conditions and improves cognitive functioning in other patients. The overall effect of negative ions enhances brain functioning.

● Improve physical functioning

Negative ions increase blood oxygenation in the body and aid the distribution of oxygen to different organs. An adequate supply of oxygen to parts of the body like the brain and muscles improves the body's physical functioning. Studies show that negative ions also increase the body's tolerance for exercise and aids physical performance without fatigue. Negative ions also reduce illness and stress that affect physical functioning.

Other health benefits include a positive mood and a happy state of mind.

The benefits of negative ions are instantaneous and immediately bring relief. The relaxing effect is like no other. So, visit nature, sit by a beach, climb a mountain, and take a trip to waterfalls. Inhale the air and take in as many negative ions as your body needs. When you cannot afford a break, take a shower and use artificial negative ion emitters. You are sure to feel good and healthier. Maintaining optimal health at all times and preventing illnesses is a duty you owe yourself. Take good care of your health by increasing your exposure to negative ions.

One primary concern to note, especially when undergoing far infrared therapy, is "overheating," similar to the good things of life; it is essential to use it in moderation, or it may result in an adverse effect. The user must monitor the heat from the mat, which releases the far-infrared, to determine the suitable heat level. While it is necessary to note the level of comfort that is comfortable for you, it is beneficial and recommended every once in a while to push yourself out of your comfort zone. Still, when doing so, it should only be for a limited period. Increased heat levels usually result in excessive sweating, especially for elderly users; it could bring about particular concerns due to the functionality of sweat glands which reduce with age. Overheating could result in fatigue, dizziness, headaches, nausea, amongst others. To avoid such side effects, it is essential only to operate the mat at a responsible level. Parents and guardians should also note that compared to adults, the internal temperature of children tends to increase at a much higher rate. This is why it is essential to closely monitor the state of children and communicate with a paediatrician before allowing them to use the mat. It is highly recommended to stay hydrated while using the Qi Mat.

1. Drink plenty of water before and after use. Fluids help flush any toxins released during the session. Proper hydration also promotes all effects improving detoxification caused by sweating.

2. If you use the mat at higher temperatures, your body may lose hydration faster than usual. Only sleep on a mat with lower heat settings. Extended use at high temperatures may result in dehydration.

3. You should cover the mat with a mat protector or towel to protect it from sweat and to protect your body from direct contact with hot gemstones. A cover does not reduce the effects of FIR, negative ions or PEMF. Using a cover helps to heat up the gemstones faster.

4. Before use, you may preheat your mat. Turn the mat on and set your desired temperature. Cover the whole mat with the optional foil blanket or any other material that would prevent heat from dissipating.

5. The mat may take 15 to 30 minutes to be heated up, depending on the temperature set.

6. The controller may get warm when the mat is on the highest heat level or if several functions are activated altogether for a long duration. However, if the controller gets too hot or if you notice any smell, please turn off the mat immediately.

7. Start the first few sessions with a low temperature and short sessions for a period of time. Increase the temperature and duration gradually as your body adapts to the effects of the mat. Pay attention to how you feel at different temperature settings, and know-how to adjust it for the next session.

8. You can use your mat every day with low and medium settings. At high temperatures, use with caution, and you should not have more than one session per day. Use a mat with proper hydration and in accordance with the manual.

Heating the gemstones in the mat naturally releases far infrared rays and negative ions. Adjust the strength of your exposure by adjusting the temperature of your mat. As a general rule of thumb, the higher you set the mat temperature, the shorter your session should be.

Begin with 37°C, the average temperature of the human body. Gradually adjust the temperature until you find a comfortable level. The gemstones used are natural heat conductors, they get hot quickly and release their heat into the air.

35 - 40°C:
• Suitable for those who are heat sensitive and good for prolonged and overnight usage
• Promotes better sleep
• Provides mind and muscular relaxation
• Promotes cells regeneration

45 - 50°C:
• Good for cycles of 2 Hours or more, suitable for after training or strenuous sports activities
• Provides temporary relief of joint pain, stiffness and minor muscle pain
• Provides muscular relaxation and a temporary increase in blood circulation. Comfortable temperature for the average person.

55 - 60°C:
• Good for cycles of 30 - 90 minutes
• Provides temporary relief of joint pain, stiffness and minor muscle pain
• Provides muscular relaxation and a temporary increase in blood circulation.
• Provides profound relaxation and helps to reduce stress, tension and anxiety.

65 - 70°C:
• Good for cycles of 30-60 minutes
• Provides sauna level cleansing and detoxification of cellular waste with the effect of far infrared
• Improves blood circulation and speeds up body's own natural repair mechanisms due to far infrared heat

1. Cover the entire mat with the mat protector, blanket or towel to protect the body from direct heat and to protect the mat from sweat.

2. Wash the mat protector, blanket or towel regularly.

3. Before cleaning the mat, turn off the mat by pressing the Main Power Button on the controller and then disconnect the controller plug from its power outlet.

4. Do not use any detergents, flammable chemicals or solvents such as benzene, thinner or aggressive cleaning agents on the controller or mat, as they may damage the controller and the mat.

5. Do not wash the controller or mat with water.

6. Do not put the controller or mat in a washing machine or dryer.

7. Do not get the mat wet. If you accidentally spill something onto the mat, clean the surface of the mat with a dry cloth. Let it completely dry before using it again. Then test it on high heat for an hour before laying your body on the mat. Remember that ironing the device is strictly prohibited.

8. To wipe off dirt and dust, use only a slightly wet cloth to clean or may use a vacuum to remove any dust from the surface of the mat.

9. To completely self-clean and disinfect, leave the mat with protectors on high heat for 1 hour each week or set the mat on a high heat for 10 minutes after each use to allow moisture to evaporate.

10. Do not leave your mat unattended while it is powered on.

11. To fold the mat, disconnect the controller power plug from the power outlet, then unplug from the mat's power port. Next, fold the mat inward at predetermined places. All mats with additional functions such as PEMF or Photon Red Light or large sized are rather firm, try not to bend a firm mat in unusual places. Mat will last longer if it is folded and kept properly.

12. To store your mat and controller, make sure the mat has cooled down before placing them in the bag provided. Keep the mat in a dry and ventilated place.
