Single Near Infrared Light Therapy
While the near infrared sauna is recommended for most Mineral Balancing clients, there are times when a single red heat lamp is needed. The single red heat lamp can be used to shine on areas that are injured or need directed infrared therapy. It can be used by pregnant women and with children, (please ask for assistance before using), and it can be used by clients who cannot afford to purchase the near-infrared sauna.
There are many conditions that can benefit from the use of the single red heat lamp, especially when combined with your complete program. Joint pain, muscle pain and strains, neck, shoulder, elbow, knee, and back pain often respond to the single red heat lamp therapy. Other conditions that may benefit include sinus issues, headaches, and conditions of the eyes, nose, and ears.
You can purchase the lamp stand as seen in this article, or search for one yourself. If you want a less expensive option, purchase a brooder clamp lamp, and use your near infrared bulb with this device. I prefer the lamp stand as it is easier to position and move, but a brooder clamp lamp can work. The light should be a 250-watt NEAR infrared bulb. Whenever you purchase any lamp stand that comes with a bulb, you may need to replace the bulb to assure you are using a 250-watt near infrared light.
HOW TO USE:
Sit about 12 to 24 inches away from the lamp allowing it to shine on the area that needs treatment. The skin may redden from the lamp, but this is not dangerous and will go away. The lamp does not tan the skin.
Allow the area to become as hot as you can comfortably tolerate.
Do not touch the lamp or housing.
Do not keep it on one spot if you feel a burning sensation.
You can use the lamp for 5 to 60 minutes per session and between 2 and 10 times per day.
When using on the face or head, do not spend more than 10 minutes at a time under the light.
Close your eyes if using on the face and do not look directly into the light.
Do not use the light on an injury during the first 24 hours following the injury.
One of the best ways to use your Near Infrared Single Lamp:
The lamp can be used while doing a coffee enema. This will enhance the enema and is very comforting. Position the lamp so it shines over the abdominal region while doing the enema. The lamp will enhance the detoxification of the liver so both the enema and the lamp work together to support the liver. The heat from the lamp is very soothing and makes the enema relaxing.
Combining the use of the near infrared single lamp, with the coffee enema, while doing the meditation, or the Mental Exercise, is an excellent way to incorporate several procedures into your program in a time efficient manner.
