Back pain relief with Far Infrared bands
Our products are impregnated with a lead free ceramic that emits safe Far Infrared rays. Far Infrared rays penetrate into the back and surrounding area increasing the blood flow which has beneficial effects on stiff and damaged joints. Far infrared light has a warming effect which causes the capillaries to dilate thus increasing the blood flow to the affected area. This increased flow helps to flush away toxins and lactic acids which can cause the stiffness and discomfort.
Our products are a cost effective way of managing pain. With the appropriate care our products should still be usable after 300 washes.
More about your Back

What causes Back Pain?
Back pain may be defined as mild to chronic back pain or discomfort in the area of the lower or upper back and shoulders. The pain can be acute (sudden and severe) or chronic if it has lasted more than three months. Back pain often occurs in younger people whose work involves physical effort and is not uncommon in people of retirement age. Lower back pain and upper back pain are responsible for more lost work days than any other ailment.
In the majority of cases, it is impossible to identify the exact cause of backache. In about 25 per cent of cases, however, it is possible to identify the cause. Often, these patients are suffering from conditions like.
• Degenerative Disc diseases
• Herniated (or bulging) Discs
• Inflammation of the Sacroiliac Joint
• Muscle strains or spasms
• Sciatica
Symptoms
- Pain across the lower part of the back that sometimes radiates into the buttocks, the back of the thigh or to the groin. The pain is usually worse on movement.
- Limitation in movement of the spine - especially bending forward and leaning back.
- Tense spasm of the muscles surrounding the spine and causing a stiff back.
- With severe pain and spasm, the back may tilt to one side causing a change in posture.
- The pain is sometimes accompanied by a tingling sensation or numbness in the back or buttocks or leg.
- Upper back pain including shoulder blade pain and neck pain
