The effect of the Infraphil IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
The Infraphil produces infrared light, which penetrates deeply into the skin.This heats the skin, dilating the blood vessels and thus stimulating blood circulation. The blood transports the substances necessary for rebuilding and nourishing the body's tissues more rapidly, while at the same time waste substances are removed more quickly. These features make the Infraphil extremely suitable for therapeutic as well as cosmetic use. Therapeutic applications Infrared light can be used to treat muscular pains (fig. 3 and 4) and (common) colds (fig. 5). If there is no improvement after 6-8 treatments, stop using the appliance and consult your doctor. Do not use the appliance if you have a swelling or an inflammation, as heat could aggravate the complaints. If in doubt, consult your doctor. Cosmetic applications Remove all make-up from your face before treatment to ensure optimal results. The Infraphil keeps your facial skin healthy and clean because of its stimulating effect on the blood circulation. Infrared light opens the pores of the skin.This will allow better cleaning of the skin. As a result of the infrared light, creams or other skincare products are absorbed better and more quickly by the skin.

Distance and beam adjustment Distance between the body and the appliance: When treating muscular pains, the distance between the lamp and the area to be treated must be approx. 20 cm.The heat should feel comfortable on the skin. When treating colds the distance between the face and the appliance must be approx. 35 cm. Aim the beam of infrared light at the part of the body to be treated (fig. 6). Duration of treatment The duration of the treatment depends on the person to be treated and the type of use. We recommend a few short treatments a day, e.g. 2 treatments of 15 minutes. Practice has shown that a few short treatments a day produce a better result than one longer treatment.
