Wyjaśnienie promieniowania podczerwonego

To understand the therapeutic effect of an infrared cabin, it is important to know exactly what infrared radiation is and what it does:

– Long and medium wave radiation increase blood circulation, which improves the skin’s blood flow.
– Radiators with short wave capabilities (IR-A radiation) penetrate the skin layers without heating the skin. The effect is deep heat, which is absorbed by the body. This radiation is known as the most therapeutic infrared radiation. The infrared radiation, and thus the heat, penetrates deep into the skin.

Because such an infrared cabin does not need to be preheated and mainly provides depth effect, it is mainly used by people with complaints and discomforts where deep heat is required. Think of muscle and joint pain, such as rheumatism, arthrosis, arthritis and fibromyalgia. Also when one wants to undergo a quick, intensive infrared session several times a week, a cabin with these so-called therapeutic Full Spectrum lamps is an excellent choice.

The three types of radiation each have their own wavelength. This is expressed in micrometers (μm). Within the infrared part of the spectrum, there is a further distinction between:
Short wave infrared (IR-A): 0.78 – 1.40 μm
Medium wave infrared (IR-B): 1.40 – 3.00 μm
Long wave infrared (IR-C): 3.00 – 1000 μm
*Short wave radiators are visible to the eye

Cleopatra’s infrared heaters use IR-A, IR-B and IR-C . These heaters are therefore also referred to as full-spectrum heaters. They consist of:
27% short-wave radiation (IR-A)
58% medium-wave (IR-B)
15% long-wave infrared radiation (IR-C).

Due to the higher core temperature in the radiator, based on halogen technology, we speak of deep heat. The penetration depth into the skin is 4 to 5 mm with this infrared radiator.
Pełne spektrum radiators are recognizable because the radiators glow red in color (comparable to the red lamp of the past). In order to reduce the light to a pleasant amount,
a specially manufactured ceramic glass, called a robax filter, is used. This Robax filter promotes an even distribution of infrared energy over the body.

Because a full spectrum cabin does not need to be preheated and mainly provides depth effect, it is mainly used by people with complaints and discomforts where
deep heat is required. Think of muscle and joint pain, such as rheumatism, arthrosis, arthritis and fibromyalgia. Also when one wants to undergo a quick, intensive infrared session several times a week, a full spectrum cabin is an excellent choice.

IR-A RADIATION – short wave
Short wave radiation, also called IR-A radiation, is known as the most therapeutic infrared radiation. The body is heated, the cabin is not. The infrared radiation, and thus
the heat, penetrates deep into the skin. This radiation relieves rheumatic pains and muscle pain. It is not necessary to preheat the cabin. Because the heat is absorbed directly by the body, the cabin door does not have to remain closed.

IR-B RADIATION – medium wave
IR-B radiation is medium wave infrared radiation. This radiation also penetrates directly into the upper skin layers, but less deeply than IR-A radiation. The deep heat effect as with IR-A
radiation does not occur.

IR- C RADIATION – long wave
IR- C radiation is used to heat the air in the cabin. The humidity drops due to the high temperature in the cabin. The upper layer of skin is heated in this way and
the radiation does not penetrate the body. With IR- C infrared radiation you will sweat the most due to the high temperature in the cabin. It is necessary to heat up the cabin before use. For the best effect, it is advisable to keep the door closed during use.
