The BioMat® is an FDA-approved medical device which emits far infrared waves and negative ions.
The gentle warmth of the BioMat® gives an overall massaging effect and helps the body to cleanse
itself. The BioMat® also emits negative ions. Negative ion therapy has been shown to help people
by improving the immune system, central nervous system, purifying the blood and pain relief. It can
also help magnify the benefits from ion cleanse foot baths as well as massage therapy, when used in
conjunction with these treatments.
The BioMat® increases blood circulation and strengthens the cardiovascular system, which is
beneficial for detoxification. Additionally, it helps to raise the alkalinity of the blood which can
also help to cleanse the blood from toxins. The gentle warmth gives an overall massaging effect and
is also an effective heat therapy used to treat arthritis, sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, muscle
spasms, joint stiffness and many other muscular-skeletal ailments. When used in conjunction with the
ionCleanse® foot bath and massage, detoxification benefits can be amplified. Benefits from far
infrared include:
- Relieves muscle aches
- Increases blood flow
- Pain relief
- Heals soft tissue injuries
- Assists with inflammatory issues
Many people can benefit from the BioMat®, but those with restless legs, trouble
sleeping, addictions and low self-esteem have found it to be especially soothing.
The BioMat® uses a soothing three part method of infrared heat therapy, negative ion therapy
and the healing properties of amethyst crystals. Far infrared heat raises your body temperature,
which increases blood circulation. These infrared rays penetrate 14 to 15 cm into the body, which
not only benefits muscles on the surface of the body but also blood vessels, lymph glands and nerves.
This causes the peripheral blood vessels to dilate and also induces sweating, which both help to
detoxify your system by removing metabolic waste products in the blood and embedded impurities and
dead skin cells in the skin. Unlike an electric blanket which uses conductive heat transfer from
electrical heating, the BioMat® uses radiative heat transfer, which is more effective. The
BioMat® also emits negative ions which can help the immune system, the central nervous system,
pain relief and cell metabolism. When negative ionization is introduced, the blood can be
“purified” by increasing blood alkaline.
While the mat may be used on its own to achieve feelings of calm and rejuvenation, our
use of the mat during the ionCleanse® footbath leads to a more exhilarating and
ultimately soothing detox experience.
