The effect of the infraCare
The InfraCare produces infrared light, which penetrates deeply into the skin. This warms 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.
This means treatment with the InfraCare can relieve muscular problems and pain.
Therapeutic applications
The InfraCare is a local warmth therapy appliance.
Possible applications:
Treatment for occasional or chronic muscle pains, stiff muscles and stiff joints
Treatment of lower-back ache (lumbago)
Treatment of chilblains
Preparation for another treatment such as a massage
Treatment of sprains and bruises
To relieve pain, e.g. due to rheumatic disorders
