Infrared lamps

Infrared lamps

— these lamps serve as powerful sources of infrared radiation, employed in medicine for localized heating. Infrared radiation can deeply penetrate the skin, reaching depths of 5-6 cm, accelerating biochemical processes, widening blood vessels, reducing inflammation, and promoting wound healing. The resulting warmth also induces a calming and relaxing effect. Infrared heating is effective for conditions like colds, muscle and joint pain, skin issues, and even non-purulent inflammation of internal organs and high blood pressure. It's crucial to note that IR lamps have strict contraindications, requiring usage only under the guidance of a doctor.

It is also worth noting that while infrared radiation is not as dangerous as ultraviolet radiation, it is still not advisable to neglect safety rules when using it. For example, exceeding the time of the procedure is risk of burns and even the opposite effect - increasing inflammation instead of healing it.
