The effect of the Infraphil.

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. 4 and 5) and

(common) colds (fig. 6).

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

BRemove 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.

Using the appliance.

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

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.

BPractice has shown that a few short treatments a day produce a better

result than one longer treatment.
