Dr. Lin Yunfei
Far-infrared radiation has a strong thermal effect. Its deep-penetrating capability can reach the deeper layers of muscles and joints, helping to alleviate joint pain. It also helps regulate the autonomic nervous system and facilitates the direct cutaneous metabolism of fatigue- and aging-related substances. Moreover, far-infrared therapy is an effective physical treatment modality that improves circulatory function, promotes blood circulation, enhances metabolism, and boosts immune function.
