Raynaud's Disease is a vascular disorder that affects blood flow to the extremities such as fingers, toes, nose and ears when exposed to cold temperatures or in response to stress. Raynaud's is sometimes called a disease, syndrome, or phenomenon. When one is suffering from raynaud's disease, arteries that supply blood to the skin narrow, limiting blood circulation to affected areas. The narrowing of the blood vessel is caused by a brief episode of vasospasm. As a result, the skin may turn white and then blue for a short while. When the blood flow returns to normal, the affected areas may turn red and may throb, tingle, burn, or feel numb. The attacks of this disease may last from a few minutes to several hours and in extreme cases, infections and ulcerations may also develop in the affected area.
Far Infrared therapy has the effects of promoting blood circulations to the treated area. It also has the effects of relieving the vasospasm that restrict the blood flow. By comparing the symptom of Raynaud's disease and the effects of Far Infrared therapy, it can be shown that it is the right treatment for raynauds disease.
In practice, it has also been shown that far infrared therapy is an effective treatment for raynauds disease.
