Far infrared radiation (FIR): a new strategy for daily health and well-being

Ceramic nanoparticles play a key and significant role in this technological evolution. In fact, they show exceptional capabilities that allow them to amplify their effect when they encounter a biological substrate (e.g. human skin) through the intrinsic property of FIR. They thus represent an innovative resource compared to traditional additives and materials, transferring energy in the form of heat.  

This context includes tissues with FIR properties: a new category of functionalized tissues made of fibers impregnated with nanoparticles that emit FIR playing an important role in health and daily well-being. 

In addition, this technology has promoted an extension of biomedical benefits because the beneficial effects of FIR affect their ability to reflect the infrared that the body normally dissipates; this mechanism can be used to increase local temperature, resulting in vasodilation and localized increment in blood microcirculation. 

Moreover, there is also the ability to promote tissue regeneration, with activation of the immune system and increase of cellular and tissue metabolism. There are some of advantages of these modern innovative resources as useful strategies directed towards specific pathological conditions, including arthritis, muscle pain, muscle stiffness, and muscle spasm.
