Biomat Therapy for Wellness
Biomat therapy is a holistic treatment that combines advanced technology with natural healing elements to promote overall wellness and tissue repair. It utilizes a specially designed pad that emits far-infrared rays, negative ions, and the conductive properties of amethyst crystals to deliver therapeutic benefits. The therapy is based on the principle that these elements can penetrate deep into the body, promoting relaxation, pain relief, and tissue healing.
The far-infrared rays emitted by the Biomat penetrate up to six inches into the body, providing a gentle, deep warmth that helps increase blood circulation and oxygenation to the tissues.
This increased blood flow can aid in the repair of damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and promote faster healing, especially after surgeries or injuries. Far-infrared (FIR) rays, like those found in Biomat heating pads, have been shown to enhance wound recovery by improving microcirculation and promoting tissue repair. Studies have demonstrated that FIR radiation can improve microcirculation by up to 400%, facilitating the delivery of oxygen, nutrients, and immune cells to injured tissues. This enhanced perfusion plays a pivotal role in promoting wound healing by accelerating the inflammatory response and facilitating tissue repair processes. For example, a study published in the journal Clinics in Orthopedic Surgery evaluated the effects of FIR on postoperative pain and tendon-to-bone healing after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The study found that the application of FIR significantly reduced postoperative pain and improved clinical outcomes compared to a control group.
These findings suggest that FIR therapy can be a valuable tool in enhancing wound recovery and improving overall tissue health. By increasing blood flow and oxygenation to the affected area, FIR helps accelerate the healing process and reduce recovery time.
Negative ions, which are abundant in natural environments like forests and waterfalls, are thought to enhance mood, reduce stress, and boost overall vitality. Biomats produce these negative ions. Negative ions have been studied as a means of decreasing depression, improving mood, and enhancing an overall feeling of well-being. Devices which produce negative ions do so by charging particles in the air. One NIH-supported study that explores the effects of negative ions on well-being and stress reduction “Air ions and mood outcomes: a review and meta-analysis” published in BMC Psychiatry,
provides a comprehensive review and meta-analysis of the potential effects of exposure to negative and positive air ions on psychological measures of mood and emotional state.
The findings indicate that exposure to negative ions is linked to reduced depression severity, lower psychological stress, less anxiety, and enhanced well-being.
Biomat therapy can be integrated into a functional and integrative medical strategy, which focuses on treating the whole person rather than just addressing isolated symptoms.
This functional and integrative medical approach emphasizes natural healing and preventive care, incorporating various complementary therapies alongside conventional medical treatments. By combining Biomat therapy with other integrative practices such as meditation, massage, and nutritional counseling, patients can achieve a more comprehensive and personalized path to wellness, including their mental health.
