Unlike an electric blanket, a Bio-Mat does not get hot when it is turned on. However, if you lie down on it, it warms the inside of your body and the part of the pad making contact with your skin gets warm. When any part of the pad gets higher than the selected temperature, the sheet current is cut off by thermal sensors distributed throughout the pad. It comes with an external control box where the AC is converted to DC and you can also adjust the desired temperature of the pad.
Far Infrared Rays can penetrate deeply
Because of this it can warm our body from the inside out, and stimulate our system. Medical and therapeutical professionals have found that the same infrared rays found in natural sunlight are generated by the RichWay Bio-Mat Sleeping System with modern technology.
Benefits of Far Infrared and Bio-Mat
Increases blood circulation and strengthens the cardiovascular system: As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart works harder pumping blood at a greater rate to boost circulation.
- Improved skin: The profuse sweating achieved after just a few minutes on the Bio Mat carries off deeply imbedded impurities and dead skin cells, leaving the skin glowing and immaculately clean.
- Burns calories: As you relax in the gentle heat of the bio mat, your body is actually hard at work, producing sweat, pumping blood and burning calories. According to a Journal of the American Medical Association (AMA) report, in a single infrared ray sauna session, you may burn as many calories as you would rowing or jogging for 30 minutes.
- Improves the immune system: Far infrared ray’s deep heat raises your body temperature and induces an artificial fever. As it works to combat the “fever”, your body’s immune system is strengthened. Combined with the elimination of toxins and waste produced by the intense sweating, your overall health and resistance to disease is increased.
- Reduces stress and fatigue: The gentle warmth of an Amethyst Bio Mat gives you an overall massaging effect, soothing jangled nerves and knotted muscles.
- Relieves pain: The deep heat of an Amethyst Bio Mat helps peripheral blood vessels dilate bringing relief and healing to muscles and soft tissue injuries. Increased blood circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen-depleted muscles so they recover faster.
