Why
we get FAT....."Fill'er
up"
When energy fuel (calories)
input is equal to energy fuel (calories)
consumption, there is no expansion of fat cells (lipocytes) to
accomodate excess fuel (calories).
The most important thing to remember about your weight is the
relationship between calorie intake (from eating) and calorie
burn (from activity). To lose weight, you need to burn more calories
than you're taking in. To maintain your weight, intake and burn
should be equal.
It is only when more calories are taken in than used that the
extra calories
are stored in fat
cells and the person begins to accumulate fat. During a
50 minute InfraRed body wrap you can burn 1200 calories, and continue
to burn calories for up to 24 hours afterwards, due to an elevated
metabolism. |

What is
the Infrared Body Wrap System?
Is
Infrared heat safe?
Yes, infrared heat is within
the same frequency levels as our own body heat and this is in tune with
our own energy system. It is therefore safe and compatible for us to use,
allowing deep heat penetration that is not possible with other methods
of heating.
Infrared Thermal
Heat and cardiovascular conditioning.
Due to the deep penetration, over 1.5” into the skin, of the infrared
rays generated by the Infrared Thermal System, there is a heating effect
deep in the muscular tissues and the internal organs. The body responds
to his deep-heating effect via an hypothalamic-induced increase in both
heart volume and rate. This beneficial heart stress leads to a sought-after
cardiovascular training and conditioning effect. Medical researches confirm
that the use of Infrared Thermal heat provides cardiovascular conditioning
as the body works to cool itself and involves substantial inceases in
heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate. As a confirmation of the
validity of this form of cardiovascular conditioning, extensive research
by NASA in the early 1980’s led to the conclusion that infrared
stimulation of cardiovascular function would be the ideal way to maintain
cardiovascular conditioning in American astronauts during long space flights.
Blood flow during whole-body hypothermia is reported to rise from a normal
5 ~ 7 quarts per minute to as much as 13 quarts per minute.
“Medical practitioners
make use of Infrared Radiant Heat to treat sprains, strains, bursitis,
peripheral vascular diseases, arthritis, and muscle pain…”
– McGraw/Hill - Encyclopedia of Science and Technology
The
following is a summary from Therapeutic Heat and Cold, 4th Edition, Ed.
Justus F. Lehmann M.D., Williams and Wilkins, Chapter 9 or concluded from
the data therein.
Generally
it is accepted that heat produces the following desirable therapeutic
effects.
- It increases the extensibility of collagen tissues.
- It decreases joint stiffness directly.
- It is relieves muscle spasms
- It produces pain relief.
- It increases blood flow.
