Painful conditions caused by hyperacidity and inflammation Pains and inflammatory changes in muscles, tendons and joints are very common disorders. These conditions are predominantly triggered by tense muscles with disruptions of the microcirculation. In the affected tissues, the supply of blood to the cells suffers and forms lactic acid. This local hyperacidity and reactive inflammation very often leads to uncomfortable musculoskeletal pains. The described changes to tissue metabolism are much more often the cause of pains and reactive inflammations than structural damage to tendons or joints.
The healing processes are supported by the subsequent application of heat for the purposes of increased blood circulation and improved metabolism. The heat treatment with water-filtered infrared A achieves a particularly deeply effective heat input. This special form of heat radiation is easy on the skin and the heat penetrates deeply into the musculature and the connective tissue. This also ensures a reduction in pain and an improvement in mobility.
wIRA works on these process disruptions in the tissue, ensures that the affected muscles, tendons, joint capsules etc. are protected against hyperacidity and inflammatory factors.

Thermal Effects:
wIRA increases
- temperature
- oxygen partial pressure
- perfusion in the tissue
Non-thermal effects: putting direct stimuli on cells cellular structures
wIRA decreases
- pain (and required dose of analgesics)
- hypersecretion
- inflammation
wIRA can show
- positive immunomodulatory effects
