Sunlight consists of different wave lengths of light.
When combined they produce the "white light" that we
experience every day. Infrared light is in this spectrum's
lower range, and although its rays aren't visible to the eye,
it generates the warmth we feel on bright sunny
days.
The complete spectrum of sunlight consists of visible and
invisible rays. The visible rays are red, orange, yellow, green,
indigo, blue, and violet in color, known as rainbow colors. The
invisible rays are Ultra Violet, X-rays, Gamma, Cosmic, Microwave,
Long Wave, Electrical Wave, and Infrared.
Electromagnetic waves between visible light and the microwave
are called infrared waves. The wavelength of infrared waves range
from 0.76 micron to 1,000 microns. The ranges of Near, Medium, and
Far-Infrared Rays are 0.76 to 1.5microns, 1.5 to 4 microns, and 4
to 1,000 microns respectively.
Infrared rays vary in wavelengths, and are categorized as
near infrared, mid infrared and far infrared.
While these rays share the attributes listed below, they
are most noticeable in far infrared waves.
Radiation: Infrared rays radiate or spread from a
localized source.
Penetration: Unlike visible light, infrared rays can
deeply penetrate skin and the underlying tissues up to 1.5 to
2.8 inches (approx. 3.75 - 7 cm).
Resonance: Infrared rays naturally generate heat by
causing the body's molecules to rapidly vibrate against each
other.

When Far infrared rays penetrate the skin, they come into
contact with protein, collagen and fats, By stimulating
micro-vibrations far infra-red cause a thermal reaction which
elevates tissue temperatures. The human body then reacts by
dilating all the blood vessels regardless of size. Tissues are
revitalized because of the improved (micro & macro)
circulation.
It should be noted that an important principle of
traditional Chinese medicine is that good blood circulation
promotes good health. Conversely, an obstructed blood flow
will increase the likelihood of disease and pain. Other
ancient Asian therapies such as the Japanese "Palm
Therapy" and China's "Qi GongTherapy" are also
based on the premise that the human body itself, is capable of
radiating Far Infrared rays.
Infra-red therapy has proven to be effective because its
"hot rays" exhibit analgesic, anti-inflammatory and
anti-spasmodic capabilities. Therefore, ThermoFlow far infrared products are useful in the treatment of sub-acute or
chronic inflammations, and for trauma, scar adhesions and
nerve pain.

The Ceramics used in the ThermoFlow materials are made up of a
special formula of natural lead free stones and minerals (like
Silica Oxide (SiO2). These ceramics emit far infrared rays (FIR).
top
The recommended length of the Far Infrared wave
length is 9-14 Microns. This is the wave length that
can easily be absorbed by the body.
top
Natural and man-made fibers are impregnated
with micro-particles of non-lead ceramic powder, and
woven into a cloth fabric. All ThermoFlow
products are made with this technically advanced 'space
age' fabric.
top
ThermoFlow Products are made in Canada. Head office is in Vancouver BC.
All ThermoFlow
products contain ceramic impregnated fibers that absorb ambient far-infrared rays
and then radiate this natural energy back into the body's tissues,
promoting and improving blood circulation. The thermal energy produced is
not often felt by the user so the products can be comfortably worn
year round.
No you do not need to use any electrical device for the
Thermoflow Far Infrared Garments to work. The Far Infrared
is emitted from the Bio-Ceramic impregnated fibers in the
material.

Clinical tests on Raynaud's Syndrome
have shown that ThermoFlow products relieve pain.
Customers using the products have also noticed pain relief from
numerous other ailments including: arthritis, rheumatism, carpal
tunnel syndrome, knee pain, lower back
pain, numbness of
extremities, sports
injuries, tennis elbow, varicose
veins, leg cramps, menstrual cramps, circulatory
problems, shingles, fibromyalgia and
more...
For two years, ThermoFlow health products were clinically tested by Dr. Gordon Ko
and Dr. David Berbrayer at Sunnybrook and Women's College Health
Science Centers at the University of Toronto. Click Here
for more information on the Medical Study.
Further studies of the Thermoflow material are scheduled.
Garments are currently undergoing further testing for those
suffering from the "Shingles"
ailment. Results will be posted on this website as soon as they
are come available.

ThermoFlow products. As the body rids itself of old toxins
and residual buildup, some individuals may experience some
initial detoxification symptoms. This is usually a good
sign that healing effects of the ThermoFlow garment is
working, and may be expected. If you continue experiencing
prolonged symptoms, discontinue using the product and
contact your physician.
No, Thermoflow is non-magnetic. We have
been asked this question numerous times, so we double
checked with the pharmacists who assured us, Thermoflow
will not adversely effect your pace maker.

Yes. The effects felt by by the
individual will vary depending on your health needs. If
you do not feel anything by using ThermoFlow products,
your body may be healthier than others. In such
case, using ThermoFlow garments will provide the benefits
of long term preventative therapy.

Time taken to feel the effects will very
depending on the individual's body health. Some users of
ThermoFlow garments have reported immediate results while
others have noticed a more gradual change over an 8 - 10
week time period.

The Far Infrared healing benefits are the same in both the Black and
White material. The percentage of the impregnated Bio Ceramic
formula is the same.
top
Yes. Using ThermoFlow garments on a
regular basis will help reduce unwanted fats, remove waste
products from the cells and reduce your excess body
weight.
