Rheumatoid arthritis is a debilitating chronic disease that affects millions of people around the world. It is considered a paralyzing inflammatory disease that affects the joints and surrounding tissue, most commonly associated with the hands and feet, and causes joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. There is no known cure for rheumatoid arthritis, and there is a long list of treatment options that involve medications and surgery.
Alternative treatments look promising with different oils and exercises. But the greatest relief has been documented by rheumatoid arthritis patients using infrared heat. Far Infrared Ray (FIR) is a natural deep healing heat source that penetrates deep through skin layers into muscle tissue, even as deep as bone, improving circulation and reducing inflamed tissues and joints. This radiant heat is the deep heat that one feels from sunlight without the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. It has been used as a healer for hundreds, if not thousands of years by eastern cultures. And now, those with rheumatoid arthritis can benefit from its healthy effects through the use of a variety of products and devices.
Natural treatments for rheumatoid arthritis using far infrared (FIR) rays have been done using infrared heat saunas, lamps, massagers, heating pads, portable heaters, and computing devices. Results for rheumatoid arthritis patients using FIR are positive. For example, the debilitating disease can paralyze a person and make it difficult for them to walk. After infrared sauna treatments, some rheumatoid arthritis patients report greater freedom of movement and joint flexibility. The same goes for computer use. Arthritis patients report a reduction in hand pain and the ability to work longer hours using the computer when using infrared heated computing devices.
Infrared heat computing products are cost effective and energy efficient. They are manufactured with a low power 5v carbon fiber heating element for the computer USB port. The 5v low level heating element is safe for the computer and its users and produces a constant flow of deep healing heat. Compared to the high cost of some infrared heaters, infrared heat computer products are available for less than $ 20 each. This therapeutic relief is available to people with debilitating illnesses in the comfort of their home or office.
The most common infrared heated computing devices include a warm computer mouse, a warm mouse pad, a warm keyboard pad, and a mouse hand warmer blanket. USB hand warmers can be used separately or in combination with each other. Each of the products, when used alone, helps computer users with cold sore hands. Best results are achieved when the elements of the infrared heat computer are used in combination with each other.
If you or someone you know suffers from rheumatoid arthritis when using the computer, infrared heat can help relax your mouse hand and keep your computer hands warm. Infrared heat is known to improve blood circulation to affected areas by helping to reduce the inflamed tissue that surrounds stiff joints. Approximately 20-30 minutes of infrared heat therapy a day shows positive results. Plug it in when you’re computing and use the computer to make it work for you, not harm you.
